Our core coverage spans from Oshawa and Durham Region in the east, through Toronto and the GTA (Mississauga, Oakville, Burlington, Vaughan, Markham), across to Hamilton and Brantford, and south through the Niagara Region including Niagara-on-the-Lake estate wineries.

Do you provide catering as well as event staff?

Our core service is staffing: Smart Serve certified servers, bartenders, and floor captains on hourly hire, working alongside your own kitchen or caterer. Catering can be arranged for select events on request, so mention it to Tracy when you ask for a quote.

Are all Ludify servers and bartenders Smart Serve certified?

Yes. 100 percent of Ludify waitstaff, bartenders, and supervisors hold verified, active Smart Serve Ontario credentials. Our team adheres strictly to Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) standards, ensuring safe, responsible, and elegant beverage service for all your guests.

What types of events do you staff across Ontario?

We provide tailored staffing for venue and private club events, private home dinners, luxury condominium party rooms, corporate boardroom meetings, cocktail receptions, product launches, milestone birthdays, and estate weddings. Whether you require a single private server for 10 guests or a full service crew for 150, we curate the right team for your occasion.

For weddings and private dinner parties, reserving two to four weeks in advance is recommended. However, private clubs and venues can book with as little as 3 days notice, with shift requests confirmed within 2 hours.

Do your staff assist with setup, table styling, and cleanup?

Yes. Our staffing coverage is end to end. We arrive before guest arrival to assist with table setting, floral placement, glassware staging, and bar setup. During the event, we handle discreet plate clearing and continuous drink replenishment. Following the event, our crew washes glassware, wipes down countertops, packs up rentals, and removes trash so your home or venue is left immaculate.

How does booking confirmation and payment work?

To reserve event staff for your date, we provide a clear, itemized quote based on your requested roles and hours starting at $35 per hour.
