you've got questions. we've got drinks... and answers

Do you provide alcohol?

Social Riot does not provide the alcohol for any event, as state law prohibits us from purchasing it on your behalf. However, we make it easy by giving you a detailed shopping list tailored to your event and menu. This allows you to buy exactly what you need, from wherever you like, and often at a much lower cost than traditional all-inclusive bar services that upcharge for liquor. It’s a great way to save money while still offering a fully stocked, professional bar experience.

What locations do you service?

We are located in Fort Myers, Florida and service up to 50 miles from 33913.

Can we add decorations to the bar?

Yes! You’re welcome to add your own decorations to our bar to match the theme of your event. We just ask that nothing is attached using nails, glue, or anything that could permanently damage the bar. Please let us know ahead of time if you plan to bring your own decor. Our bars also come with standard decorations, so if you’d like to make changes or adjustments, be sure to inform us in advance.

Do you have a rain date policy?

Social Riot does not offer a rain date policy due to advanced planning and the use of perishable items. The host is responsible for tent coverage in case of bad weather, but we’re happy to coordinate with your vendor to ensure proper setup. In special cases, rescheduling may be possible, please contact us directly to discuss.

Media Policy

At Social Riot, we may take photos and videos during the events we serve. By booking our services, you agree to allow us to use this content on our website and social media. If you’d prefer not to have any images or videos from your event shared, please let us know when you book, and we’ll make sure to respect your wishes.

Are you insured?

Yes! We carry General and Liquor Liability Insurances.

Is gratuity included/ whats the gratuity policty?

Yes! Bartenders typically rely on gratuity, so having a tip jar available during your event is completely normal. If you're comfortable with a tip jar at the bar, a reduced gratuity will be included on your invoice.

If you prefer not to have a tip jar, no problem! In that case, full gratuity will be added to your invoice to ensure our bartenders are properly compensated.

Gratuity rates are based on your guest count and the number of bartenders needed for your event. The choice is completely up to you. Just let us know your preference when booking!

Do you provide non-alcoholic drinks?

Absolutely! We’re happy to create and customize a mocktail menu just for your event. If you prefer to keep it simple, we can also serve a selection of juices and sodas. Just let us know what you have in mind, and we’ll make it happen!

How soon should we book?

The sooner, the better, especially during peak season when dates tend to fill up fast. That said, we do occasionally have cancellations, so it’s always a good idea to reach out and check availability, even if your date is coming up soon.

What events do you service?

We service all types of events! From weddings, corporate events, backyard parties, galas, fundraisers, themed events, and charity functions—we’ve got you covered.

What are the payment details?

To reserve your event date, a 50% deposit is required at the time of booking. The remaining balance is due 30 days prior to your event. For events booked on short notice (within 30 days of the event date), full payment is required upfront.

What are the logistical requirements of the bar?

Our mobile bar can be set up both indoors and outdoors and does not require electricity. While we can work with a variety of terrains, we prefer a flat surface for the most stable setup. The bar itself measures 5ft x 2ft, and the minimum space needed is 5ft x 5ft to comfortably operate. If you have any concerns about your setup location, feel free to reach out—we're happy to help plan ahead.

We have a bar - can we just hire a bartender?

Yes, absolutely! Our Riot Crew package is designed specifically for events that already have a bar setup but still need professional bartending service. We’ll bring the bartending crew and essentials needed to keep your bar running smoothly, without the mobile bar setup. Reach out with your event details, and we’ll customize the service based on what you need.

Can I choose my own signature cocktails?

Yes! You're welcome to choose your own signature cocktails. We’re happy to work with you to create a custom menu that fits your style, taste, and event vibe perfectly.
