Definition: A signature cocktail is a custom drink created specifically for your wedding, often reflecting your personality, tastes, or theme of the celebration. It’s a fun and personal touch that adds something unique to your reception and gives your guests something special to remember!
Practical Use + Tips:
If you’re worried about the cost of an open bar or offering a wide selection of drinks, a signature cocktail can help limit your options while still offering something fun and special. A great combo is one or two signature drinks served alongside beer and wine!
Signature drinks can help bring a creative element to the bar- one of my favorites is when you can incorporate your last name, dog’s name or honeymoon location into the drink. The “[Last Name] Smash” or the “[Furry Friend] Mojito”.. It’s just another way to personalize this element of your special day!
A few things to consider:
- Always another fun element, custom drink stirrers!
- Passed signature cocktails during cocktail hour is always an enjoyable way to introduce those fun drinks to your guest while also getting most people a cocktail in their hands quickly!
- It’s a cocktail, the options are ENDLESS!! You can design the cocktail to match your wedding’s theme, colors, or season. I love seeing a refreshing, light drink like a lemon basil martini for a summer wedding, or a warm spiced cider cocktail for a fall wedding.
