Planning an event should be exciting — not stressful.
But when alcohol service is involved, there are important factors most clients, planners, and even venues don’t realize until it’s too late.
Not all bartending services operate with the same level of insurance, licensing, staffing standards, or legal compliance. And when alcohol is part of your event, those differences matter.
That’s exactly why we created this checklist.
Inside the Checklist:
- Insurance & Liquor Liability basics
- Licensing and legal compliance considerations
- Staffing standards (W-2 vs uninsured contractors)
- Questions most clients don’t know to ask
- Key factors venues and planners actually look for
At Premier Pour Bartending, our philosophy is simple:
Do things the right way — legally, professionally, and responsibly (while still having fun).
This resource reflects the same standards we follow for every event we serve.
