Golden Hour Taps is proudly owned by husband-and-wife team Matt and Kate Ekren, who acquired the business in November of 2025. Their shared passion for meaningful celebrations and elevated design led them to embrace a refreshed vision for mobile bar service across North Dakota.
Kate serves as the creative force behind Golden Hour Taps, leading bar styling and custom drink menu creation. As the owner of a high-end sweet treat business and luxury balloon styling services, she brings a cohesive design eye that allows bar service to integrate seamlessly with the overall event aesthetic.
Matt leads operations and business strategy, ensuring each event runs smoothly from inquiry to execution. Together, they are committed to creating stress-free celebrations where every detail feels intentional, polished, and effortless.
What initially drew them to Golden Hour Taps was the Piaggio Ape—an iconic, Italian-made mini truck that blends personality, craftsmanship, and unforgettable presence.
