Welcome to Sip Happens

We are your go-to source for everything: wine, food, and culture! Based in sunny Central Florida, we may be far from our hometown in the Finger Lakes of NY, but our love for wine and the Finger Lakes region is always close to our hearts.

With 12 years of experience running high-level events and 8 years in the international wine and spirits industry, we are passionate about bringing people together to celebrate the finer things in life. We believe that food and wine are more than just sustenance – they are an experience, a way of life, and a way to connect with others.
 
As two friends who share a love for wine and a deep connection to our hometown in the Finger Lakes, we decided to start Sip Happens to leverage our unique skill sets and promote our home region in the sunny Southern USA. We saw a gap in what was available for consumers and a need for a strong push in Florida markets, and we wanted to change that.

Our goal is to provide a platform for small wine producers in NY to showcase their amazing products to a wider audience. We want to help them get the recognition they deserve and connect them with wine lovers in Florida who are eager to discover new and exciting wines.
