When life gets a little flat, you have to bring bubbly to the party! And for self-professed mixology-obsessed eventrepreneur Amy Helsing, Bubble Tap Trailer Co seemed like just the elixir needed to bring a little fizz into Central PA!
Before uncorking a fresh, new way to bring the fun and fizz to some of Central PA’s most sought-after events, Amy began her career as an event producer & designer for large-scale concerts, festivals, and branding events.
She has spent the past two and a half decades at the helm of her event design & production firm Dream Studios, helping promoters, clients, and brands develop a robust and compelling presence through full-service event management, creative set design, production design, and unique experiential branding.
In 2020, after years of building a note-worth client base, an international pandemic stopped events all together. During that time, Amy spent the days helping her 3 young children through school and creatively filling their time with crafts & games. She dreamed up ways to lessen her travel when the world opened back up, so that she could spend more time at home while the kiddos were little. In one of life’s synchronistic moments, she had the opportunity to own a vintage 1963 Piaggio Apé converted into a Champagne Truck, and the Bubbly Bee was born along with a fleet of Tap Trailers to follow!
When she’s not planning the next buzzworthy Bubble Tap event or spending time with her close-knit family and rescue pups, Amy can be found propagating and caring for her innumerable house plant babies and sipping on libations at cocktail spots all in the name of “research and development”.
Tap Trailer Co. is a bubbling family affair. While Amy is at the helm catering to some of Central PA’s buzziest events, her long term soul sisters and creative collaborators, Amandine Pope & Aja Knouse, are helping to curate one of a kind celebrations!
From its first celebratory launch, Bubble Tap Trailer has not only popped the cork on a traditionally male-dominated industry, but also garnered instant attention from national press — from Forbes to Town and Country — and landed events from some of L.A.’s most notable names, including producer, entertainer and *NSYNC member Lance Bass who fell drunk in love with the company and its vision and quickly became an active partner and promoter of all things Bubble Tap when it was located in Southern California.
“Being in the entertainment industry, I’ve seen a lot of event concepts, but Bubble Tap Trailer was a game changer. I couldn’t believe no one had thought to do this before” said Lance Bass.
Today the company brings its effervescent style to celebrations, events and festivals around the U.S. and operates national franchises.
