FAQ
What type of events do you do?
We are happy to celebrate events of all kinds! Weddings, private parties, corporate events, retirements, graduations, non-profit events, birthdays, happy hours, holiday and themed parties, and so much more.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are fully insured. We carry general liability insurance as well as liquor liability insurance. It is your responsibility to obtain the proper licenses and permits for the event. If you purchase the spirits and liquor, you assume responsibility to the event. If you purchase liquor or spirits through our strategic partner, our partner assumes the liability of the event.
Do you supply or offer the sale of alcohol?
Due to California State laws, we cannot provide or sell alcohol. We are a BYOB bartending service; we pour what is supplied by the event host or venue. The alcohol needs to be supplied by a caterer, the venue, or the client directly.
If you are not providing the liquor, where should I get it?
We are happy to offer Alcohol Concierge, a preferred partner that we can connect you with to order liquor, wine, and beer in advance. We’ll put the order together and work with them to have the alcohol delivered to your event.
Do you have to serve alcohol?
No! We can serve mocktails, craft lemonades, juices, cold brew or kombucha. We can even be a dessert bar, floral booth or photo backdrop. Let us know what you have in mind!
