Frequently Asked Questions

Do you offer a non-profit discount?
While we don't offer a straight discount, we are happy to consider in-kind sponsorship trades as our budget allows. Please click here to submit some information, we'll let you know what we can do!
Why do I have to get a Temporary Alcohol License?
Organizations hosting an event at which they plan to sell alcohol will need a Special Event Permit. State law considers the event organizer to be selling alcohol at an event if they are:
Who is liable for any alcohol-related accidents?
Although our venue has liquor liability insurance, we do ask that our event hosts secure their own temporary insurance policy as well. South Carolina currently does not restrict litigation in the event of an alcohol-related accident–anyone involved in the event can be sued–including you as the host. It's an unfortunate reality, but the good news is it's super easy and affordable to get a one-day insurance policy that covers alcohol-related incidents. This way if there is an accident, we both share the burden and your insurance company should pick up the tab for your legal fees and damages up to the policy covered amounts. This is especially important since the alcohol license is under your name.
If you have existing commercial general liability insurance, you may be able to get a rider for a one-time event. Alternatively, you can purchase a policy on a website like www.eventhelper.com. They also offer general liability insurance, which covers many other things that can go wrong during events.
What kind of tables & chairs are included?

The Smokestack includes:
If you need a stage, tenting, or additional tables, our team will take care of coordinating the rental, delivery, set-up, and break-down. We will also take care of ordering your tablecloths. Plus, all rentals get discounted access to our extensive collection of decor, including candleholders, cake stands, easels, and more. You can save hundreds of dollars by using items from this inventory.

Why do I have to get a Temporary Alcohol License?
Organizations hosting an event at which they plan to sell alcohol will need a Special Event Permit. State law considers the event organizer to be selling alcohol at an event if they are:
- Selling a tangible item that includes a "free" alcoholic beverage (for example, selling a bag of peanuts for $5 that comes with a free beer.)
- Collecting donations at the event (including political campaign donations.)
- Selling tickets or charging admission to the event where any amount of alcohol is included in the ticket price (even 1 drink.)
- Selling drink tickets or vouchers to be redeemed for alcohol.
- Selling a conference ticket where guests pay to attend the conference and get access to an event with free alcohol. You may not need a license if the event that is serving alcohol is free and open to the public.
- Selling memberships where one of the benefits is getting free alcohol at events.
- Selling sponsorships to your event.
- Receiving any kind of alcohol donation.
