What rule must still be adhered to when serving alcohol at a private event?

Serving must be done by staff only
Any guest can serve drinks
Alcohol can be served to minors
Alcohol must be available to all attendees

The correct answer is: Serving must be done by staff only

Serving alcohol at a private event typically requires adherence to regulations that prioritize responsible service and the safety of all attendees. One important rule is that alcohol should generally be served by trained staff rather than guests. This practice ensures that individuals who serve alcohol are knowledgeable about responsible serving practices, including checking identification and recognizing signs of intoxication. Trained staff can also implement measures to ensure that guests are consuming alcohol safely and legally. Having staff serve alcohol can help maintain order at the event and reduce the likelihood of over-consumption or other risks associated with alcohol service. This is particularly important in a private setting, where there may be less oversight compared to public establishments.
