Let us handle it. Pay your alcohol invoice online, and we’ll take it from there. We place the order and deliver it straight to your venue at no extra cost. No store runs, no hauling cases, no guesswork.

Bring your own. Prefer to shop yourself? Have everything at the venue when we arrive, and we’ll take care of the rest.

Yes! We craft zero-proof cocktails with the same care as our full cocktail menus, using non-alcoholic spirits, fresh-squeezed juices, house-made syrups, and seasonal garnishes.

Whether it's for a few guests or for your entire party, we can create a beautiful and delicious non-alcoholic menu. Just let us know when you inquire.

Communication. Thoughtful aesthetics. Cocktail bar quality drinks made with fresh, seasonal ingredients. Three things that set us apart, and Millie is behind all of them.

Since launching in September 2025, we have served nearly 50 events across Austin including milestone birthdays, backyard weddings, rehearsal dinners, bachelorette and bachelor parties, brand activations, corporate team events, non-profit fundraisers, holiday parties, housewarming parties, social mixers, and themed events. If you don't see your event type listed, reach out anyway. We probably do that too.

We're built to scale. Whether it's an intimate bachelorette party or a full-scale 400-person corporate event, we bring the same level of care, planning, and cocktail bar quality to every booking.

Staffing, bar setup, and service style all flex to match your event, so the experience feels just as thoughtful at 10 guests as it does at 400.

Not sure what your event needs? We'll walk through it together during the planning process.

We recommend booking as soon as your date is confirmed. Popular weekends in spring and fall fill up quickly and our availability is intentionally limited so we can give every event our full attention. We are currently accepting bookings through Summer 2027. Last minute requests are occasionally possible depending on availability, so always worth asking.

Yes! Working with event planners is one of our favorite things. When you hire Social Butterfly ATX, we consider ourselves part of your full vendor team. We coordinate directly with your planner, venue, caterer, and any other vendors to make sure load-in, setup, and the event timeline all run smoothly. We've worked alongside wedding planners, florists, photographers, DJs, caterers, and photo booth operators!

Before your event, we'll confirm all logistics with you.

Generally we need a clear path for load-in, a flat, hard surface for the bar setup (no grass or mulch), nearby access to electricity if needed, a trash plan, and ideally some access to a water source for cleanup. For outdoor events, we always discuss a weather backup plan.

Don't worry, we walk through all of this during the planning process so there are no surprises on event day.

Of course!

We love early planners. You can join our email list and receive six weeks of free bar planning tips, covering drink quantities, signature cocktail ideas, logistics checklists, and more.

Zero commitment, zero pressure. We'll be here when you're ready.
