Our Story
'We came across the vintage Airstream in Port Elliot, a gem with so much potential. The previous owners, an older couple, had long envisioned transforming it into a food van, but their dream never came to fruition. When we saw it, we knew it was meant to be part of something special, so we decided to take on the project ourselves.
Getting it home was an adventure on its own. We had to load it carefully onto a car trailer, as its axle and trailer were in dire need of repair. Once we got it back, the first order of business was a complete overhaul, starting from the ground up. We rebuilt the axle and trailer from scratch, giving it the stability it needed for the journey ahead.
That’s when my dad stepped in, and with his incredible skills, he got straight to work. He stripped the Airstream down to its bare frame, revealing its true vintage essence. Every inch of it was thoughtfully rebuilt, maintaining that old-school charm while adding fresh touches that made it uniquely ours. Dad paid attention to the smallest details, carefully preserving its history while giving it a personality of its own. By the time he was done, it was more than just a vintage trailer; it had become a character in its own right.
And so, “Sips&Giggles” was born. This little bar on wheels now travels the state, bringing people together to raise their glasses and celebrate. From weddings to festivals, corporate events to casual gatherings, Sips&Giggles has become part of so many unforgettable memories. With its gleaming vintage exterior and warm, lively presence, it adds a touch of magic to every event, spreading joy and laughter, one toast at a time.
Today, Sips&Giggles continues to fulfil not only our dreams but also those of the couple who first imagined its potential. It lives on, creating countless fun times and cherished memories across the state—a true labour of love on wheels, bringing vintage charm and a sense of celebration wherever it goes.
