Choose Your Favorite
If you and your fiancé have a go-to drink, this is a great option for your signature drink to show off your personality or to quite frankly drink your favorite cocktail on your wedding day. Find out if your wedding venue will allow you to have 1 or 2 signature drink options. If they allow two, his favorite and her favorite drinks are always cute. See whose favorite drink option your guests will order more of.

Local Option
Maybe you’re having a destination wedding in the Caribbean-make it easy and have a tropical drink like a Pina Colada. It helps set the tone of their trip and can be right on theme. Research the local drinks of the area. Here are some drinks by state to give you an idea:
Connecticut: Moscow Mule
Georgia: Scarlet O’Hara
Hawaii: Mai Tai
Kentucky: Mint Julep
Louisiana: Hurricane
Massachusetts: The Cape Codder
New York: The Manhattan
Texas: Paloma
Seasonal Option
There are so many cute seasonal drink options.
Getting married in the Fall? Try a spiced cider. Caramel, apple or pumpkin flavors are great options.
For a Winter wedding you could do something cranberry related and use rosemary to make it festive.
For a Spring or Summer wedding you could pick something light and refreshing by adding cucumber or lemon.
Let your wedding season help steer you.

Pet Inspired
This is a great way to incorporate your fur babies into your wedding day. Pick your favorite drink and name it after your pet. The Bailey, the Maddox- it doesn’t get cuter than that. Easy idea and you show everyone how much your pet means to you. Check out these cute cocktail napkins of your pet to go with it.
