The cost of the alcohol is not included in the price for each package. Legally, payments for the alcohol must remain separate from our packages. Texas TABC laws prevent us from purchasing the alcohol or selling it to you. This means you'll be purchasing alcohol at retail cost with zero markup. We will pick-up the order for you. Your only job is to pick the alcoholic drinks (no fixed menus here) with taste and budget in mind and we take care of the rest! Ultimately, you own the alcohol and we are simply serving it to your guest. At the event’s conclusion, all leftover alcohol you can either keep or refund back to the retailer. In the state of Texas, persons who are hosting a PRIVATE PARTY (such a Wedding or Corporate event) and are serving alcohol NOT FOR PROFIT generally are allowed to purchase beer, wine, and spirits and serve to their attendees over 21 years of age. No special permit is typically needed, as long as the event is a legitimate private party..
