Your Questions Answered
Explore our FAQ section for quick answers to your most pressing questions and concerns.
Q: Do you provide the alcohol?
A: No. Due to Texas liquor laws, we cannot purchase or sell alcohol. However, we will help you create a custom shopping list and estimate how much to buy for your guest count and menu.
Q: I do not have a liquor license. Can I have you serve alcohol (liquor, wine, beer, etc.) at my event?
A: Yes! You do not need a liquor license to host a private event in Texas. As long as alcohol is not being sold (i.e., guests aren't paying for drinks), our TABC-certified bartenders can legally serve the alcohol you provide.
Q: Are you licensed and insured?
A: Yes! All our bartenders are TABC-certified (Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission) and we carry general and liquor liability insurance for every event.
Q: Can you create a custom cocktail menu?
A: Absolutely. We specialize in custom cocktail and mocktail menus tailored to your event theme, preferences, and guest experience.
Q: What’s included in your packages?
A: Every package includes bartenders, bar tools, setup & cleanup, menu planning, and liability insurance. Higher-tier packages include all consumables, mixers, signature foams/smokes, and more.
Q: Do you travel outside of Austin?
A: Yes. We service Austin and surrounding areas including Dripping Springs, Round Rock, San Marcos, and Hill Country. A travel fee may apply depending on the distance.
Q: How far in advance should I book?
A: As soon as possible! We recommend booking 2–4 months in advance for weddings and 1–2 months for smaller events. Popular dates go quickly.
Q: What do I need to provide on the day of the event?
A: If we’re not supplying all consumables, you’ll need to provide the alcohol and possibly ice, cups, and garnishes depending on your package. We’ll send a detailed checklist.
Q: Do you offer mocktails or non-alcoholic options?
A: Yes! We offer a full mocktail experience as part of our premium package or as an add-on.
Q: How long is bartending service typically?
A: Most events book 4 hours of service. You can always add extra hours for $100/hr per bartender.
Q: How many bartenders do I need?
A: We recommend 1 bartender per 50–75 guests. Events over 75 guests typically require at least 2 bartenders for smooth service.
Q: What if my venue requires a COI (Certificate of Insurance)?
A: No problem! We can provide a COI with your venue listed as additional insured upon request.
