Virginia law is simple here.The host buys the alcohol.

Virginia law doesn't let us buy or sell alcohol, so it is never part of our price. You buy it and get a one-day banquet license from Virginia ABC, and we walk you through both.

  1. Apply at least 30 days out

    Apply for a Virginia ABC one-day banquet license at least 30 days before your event. Processing takes about 7 to 10 days, so 30 days leaves room.

  2. We walk you through it

    We send you the link and walk you through the application, start to finish. The fee is about $55.

  3. Buy what we plan together

    We work out with you what to buy for your guests and your menu. We don't buy or sell alcohol, and we don't shop for it.

When you send your request, you'll confirm you'll buy the alcohol and get this license. It's in your contract too.

What hosts ask us first.

Do you provide the alcohol?

No. Virginia law doesn't let us buy or sell alcohol, so the host buys it, based on what we plan together for your guests and your menu. Anything left at the end of the night is yours to keep.

Do I need a license?

Yes. The host gets a Virginia ABC one-day banquet license for the event. It costs about $55, and processing takes about 7 to 10 days, so apply at least 30 days ahead. We walk you through the application.

How do deposits and payments work?

A request or a quote doesn't hold your date. A signed contract and a 50% deposit do. The deposit goes toward your total.

The balance is due 30 days before your event. If your event is less than 30 days away when you book, the full amount is due at booking. We take payment through Square, which accepts most major cards.

We reply with an itemized quote.
