Signature Drinks
Signature drinks for weddings bring an extra special element to your event. They are a great way to show your personality and uniqueness.
Choosing your Signature Drink
* Consider the theme of your wedding.
You may have chosen an "Old Hollywood Glam" themed wedding or a Beach themed wedding, consider drinks that are reflective of the era or the location.
*What is your favorite liquor?
You could consider having a drink built around one of your favorite Spirits.
* Color of your wedding.
Whether you have chosen red, pink or green. You can chose a drink that uses the color of the wedding. Whether it be in the liquor itself or in the garnishes. Colored sugar or a fruit reflecting the color of your wedding can add a special touch.
When choosing your signature drink, you want to pick a drink that appeals to wide audiences and is not too strong. Have a "mocktail", non-alcoholic version of your signature drink available for your guests that that don't drink.
Signature Drinks can also be a cost saving element to your wedding. Consider serving the cocktails during the cocktail hour. During the reception serve beer and wine only.
You should definitely consider hiring a professional for direction. Specialty wedding cocktails are very popular in weddings today, you caterer might be able to offer this service to you. A "mixologist" is a term given to someone who has studied or is skilled at preparing mixed drinks. Independent and special event ‘mixologists’ are also another good option. You can choose a special cocktail unique to you as a couple or maybe a classic cocktail with a twist.

The base of wedding signature drinks is often a classic cocktail like a martini. However, options for signature drinks are unlimited. With the various colored liqueurs available you can create many color specialty drinks. Almost any type of alcoholic (or non-alcoholic) drink can be signature drink, including mojitos, pina colodas, manhattans, margaritas and any other type of cocktail.
