What Every Couple Needs to Know About Bartending, Insurance, and Liability

If alcohol will be served at your wedding, there’s more to consider than drink selection. Did you know that you, the couple, can be held liable for alcohol-related incidents—unless your bartender is properly licensed and insured?

At The Heritage at Milford Family Farm, we educate every couple about the importance of licensed bar services to keep everyone safe and covered.

Why This Matters

In Georgia, unlicensed alcohol service at a private event can create serious legal risk. If a guest drinks too much and causes harm on or off the property, the responsibility could fall on you as the host.
