Meet Karla
Meet Karla McCord, where creating beautiful moments and her commitment to excellence is not just a passion, but a way of life. Happy Hour is her favorite “Sport”, and she has turned that enthusiasm into a thriving business.
From her start working in a floral shop in high school, then, a bridal salon in college to managing a luxury event design business in Seattle, Karla’s journey has been a testament to her love for making moments memorable, she pours her heart into every detail, crafting moments that are nothing short of extraordinary.

Our Story
In 2017, fearlessly pursuing the American Dream of owning her own business, she founded Happy Hour Designer Bar Rentals—a boutique rental service that elevates the ambiance and adds a touch of elegance through creative and functional bar options. Since then, the inventory has expanded to a large variety of bar options, offering customers the widest selection in the Greater Seattle Area. The company now also provides backbar shelving, cocktail tables, and an array of accessories to complete the perfect bar scene.
Affiliated with esteemed industry organizations, Karla stays up to date with design trends and fosters meaningful connections within the event community. Her dedication and talents have been widely recognized, with Happy Hour Designer Bar Rentals being awarded the title of best new wedding vendor by Seattle Bride Magazine and her industry peers. The business continues to be sought after for discerning events and its exceptional service. She believes that each event should be a reflection of life’s beauty and an opportunity to celebrate the love, happiness, and connections that binds us together.


In honor of my brother, Dr. Allan McCord, who was not only my friend & mentor, but also Happy Hour’s biggest cheerleader, I am dedicated to raising awareness about the critical importance of CPR & AED training to my friends & colleagues within the events industry as well as my vast array of customers. CPR has the power to save lives, and I challenge you to unite with me in this mission to ensure that every individual has the skills to make a difference in times of need when EVERY SECOND COUNTS. Together, we can make a positive impact and be reassured no family would have to lose a loved one due to the lack of this life-saving knowledge.
Please consider getting CPR & AED certified,
as it CAN…. and WILL…. SAVE LIVES
~ In gratitude, Karla
