Signature drinks are an exciting way to showcase your personality and creativity on your wedding day. Whether it’s a "his and her" pairing, a cocktail named after your beloved pet, or something that reflects your shared story, these drinks offer guests a delicious glimpse into your unique style.
Couples Drinks: A Perfect Pairing
A popular trend is to feature two drinks that represent the bride and groom. Think of it as a flavorful way to tell your story:
- For Him: A classic Old Fashioned for the traditional groom or a spiced rum punch for the adventurous type.
- For Her: A delicate lavender-infused gin cocktail or a sparkling RosĂ© spritzer for a feminine touch. At Drakewood we also suggest pairing a cocktail with Crave Caterings’ signature blackberry lemonade for the perfect mixer. Â
These beverages create a fun, dual experience for guests, letting them pick their favorite—or try both!
Drinks Named After Pets: Adorable and Memorable
Celebrate your furry (or feathered) family members by naming a drink in their honor. Here are some we have seen through the years.
Not only does this add charm to the bar menu, but it also sparks conversations among your guests.
Bar Signs: The Finishing Touch
Complement your signature drinks with creative bar signage, stir sticks and more that ties into your wedding theme:
Incorporate meaningful details, such as a love quote, your wedding hashtag, local brews or an explanation of why the drink names are special.
Tips for a Smooth Bar Experience
- Keep it Simple: Offer two or three signature drinks alongside a limited selection of beer and wine to streamline service.
- Collaborate: Work with your bartender to ensure the recipes are practical for a busy evening.
- Samples: Let the bride, groom, and a few trusted guests taste-test recipes ahead of time.
Signature drinks and thoughtful bar signage can elevate your reception, leaving your guests with a lasting impression of your big day. Planning ahead and simplifying where possible can keep line waits down and guests happy. Cheers to unforgettable celebrations!
