• Events need to be confirmed a minimum of 3 weeks prior to event date with all guest shipping details required a minimum of 16 days in advance to ensure kits are received in time. 
• If a specific date/time or product is required, we recommend signing your agreement with The Crafty Cask as early as possible to ensure availability.
• If your timing is tight, BYO events, where we provide a detailed list for your guests to gather their own ingredients, are a great solution that we can turn around in less than a week if there is host availability.

Depending on your budget your events can be as all-inclusive or BYO as you desire. Our standard all-inclusive virtual event offerings include: 

• Branded and customized registration page with access to real-time registrant updates
• Hosted Zoom link or client hosted meeting link on any platform
• Facilitation of all tasting kit ordering & delivery to guests
• Digital materials to send guests, where applicable, for an interactive experience
• 60 minute event hosting by a trained, certified craft alcohol professional
• Access to our best clients’ email templates for recruiting guests and communication about the event, if requested.
• Customizations as needed for a fee: food pairings, barware, branded glassware or other items, themes, etc…

When it comes to getting guests to your event we have two options:

• • We handle all of the registrations for you, which includes:
    • A custom, branded registration page with a link to share with your invited guests. This collects all necessary shipping info at the time of registration.
    • Direct access to the registration list with real-time updates so you know if you need to promote more or are at risk of having more guests than you anticipated so you can adjust your marketing plan* and budget accordingly.
    • This option also allows us to cap the event and auto-add people to a waiting list, send out immediate guest registration and reminder emails with a link to join the event, collect non-alcoholic kit requests, and more.
  • You handle the registrations yourself
    • We’ll provide a template for you to fill out and return back to us a minimum of 16 days before the event

*While you, as the true event host, are in the best position to market your own event to get guest registrations, we have an email sequence template, curated from our experience with our most successful event clients, that we can send you to ensure your event marketing efforts are a success.

Sure! We understand that some company policies prohibit purchasing alcohol or gifts over a certain price point. Or sometimes you have a timing crunch and there’s not enough time to ship kits, or perhaps you simply want to throw a fun event while keeping the costs as low as possible.

No matter the reason, we are happy to host BYO tastings and mixology classes and honestly find that they can often be the most fun for guests! We will create a detailed and visual list to send out to your guests so they know exactly what to gather and have on hand for the best experience. 

Yes, we have a couple of cocktail kits that lend themselves wonderfully to non-alcoholic drinks and, depending on availability, we also can often provide non-alcoholic craft cider or beer. If you have a full non-drinking group, our host Jena can create a custom BYO non-alcoholic mixolgy class that will wow your guests with the amazing spirit-free drinks they can make at home.

While there are some good non-alcoholic spirits and wine out there today, we don’t currently have these offerings available.

Yes, we have great partners to add on trivia, games, virtual escape rooms, cooking classes and more. We can also provide our expert advice on how to best adjust our event flow to acommodate any business presentations or activities you need to include during the event. 

Yes. If we’re unfamiliar with the platform, we may need a quick training test call, but we’ve worked across most popular virtual meeting platforms. Please note, if you do require a platform other than Zoom, we will request that you create the event link on your end. 

Yes, our fulfillment partners can typically accommodate this with enough lead time.

• There is a $395 added labor and logistics cost for any shipment additions and each customization. 
• Any perishable food items will have to be sent to your guests as a separate shipment (unless it’s our standard wine flight/cheese pairing). 
• With enough lead time, we can also provide branded glassware, shakers, etc… for a special guest keepsake.

We sure do! Head on over to our live events page to learn more or fill out the correct form for live events to get started.
