Can we hire our own bartender or use a bartending service?

Your event must be an open-bar setup with NO money exchanged between guests and bartenders.  We suggest that you hire bartenders who are TIPS certified to prevent over-serving and underage drinking.  If you do not use the open-bar setup, you can go through your caterer. No alcohol sales permits/licenses will be obtained for private events.
