FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHAT IS A SPECIAL OCCASIONS PERMIT?
A Special Occasion Permit (SOP) allows you to legally sell or serve alcohol at events held outside of licensed venues or private homes. This includes occasions like weddings, private receptions, corporate functions, and public events. An SOP is required whenever alcohol is provided at locations without an existing liquor license. For the most accurate and current details, please visit the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) website at www.agco.ca and review your local Municipal Alcohol Policy (MAP).
WHAT IS REQUIRED TO BOOK YOUR SERVICES?
To secure your booking, we require a 40% deposit along with a signed contract. The remaining balance must be paid at least 7 days before your event date.
DO YOU SUPPLY THE ALCOHOL?
No. We offer a complete dry-hire service, which means you supply the alcohol yourself. However, we’ll work closely with you to create a detailed shopping list of everything you’ll need to bring for your event to ensure everything runs smoothly.
DO YOU CATER TO NON-ALCOHOLIC EVENTS?
Yes, absolutely. We offer a variety of delicious mocktails and non-alcoholic beverage options to suit your event. If you have a favorite mocktail or specific request, just let us know and we’ll be happy to include it on your custom drink menu.
DO YOU SUPPLY THE GLASSWARE?
Our bartending service packages include recyclable plastic cups. If you prefer glassware for your event, we can assist in sourcing rental options to meet your needs.
HOW FAR WILL YOU TRAVEL?
We proudly serve all locations throughout Ontario. If your event is outside our usual service areas or requires a longer trip, please contact us for a personalized travel quote. We’re happy to accommodate your needs and help make your event a success no matter the distance.
WHAT HAPPENS IF IT RAINS?
No need to worry—rain or shine, we’re fully prepared to keep your event running smoothly. Our team comes equipped with tents and umbrellas, and all the necessary weatherproof gear to handle unexpected showers. We’ll also coordinate closely with your venue and event planner to ensure everything stays on track, no matter the weather.
WHAT IS YOUR CANCELLATION POLICY?
Your deposit is non-refundable, as it secures your event date and covers the time and resources we invest in preparation. We understand that unforeseen circumstances may arise, so if you need to cancel, we are happy to apply your deposit toward a future event.
