All about catering - Will you serve any special drinks?

Joey, on May 6, 2019 at 08:05 Posted in Wedding reception 0 27

Catering isn't just food, it's also important to consider what beverages your guests will be pairing with their meals. What drinks are you offering your guests? Have you chosen a special wine? Your favorite craft beer? Have you designed a special cocktail for your guests to enjoy? Will you be serving your family's top secret recipe for the perfect iced tea?

    We are having a 5 hour open bar for our wedding, and no we will not be doing any signature drinks.

    We have an open bar and 3 wine pourings during dinner. Not a particularly special drink but there will be an alcoholic and a non alcoholic punch during cocktail hour (alongside open bar) and after dinner they add 2 premium bottles to open bar, so we chose Disaronno and Courvoisier

    Ours is a dry wedding, but we are playing around with the idea of a smoothie or milkshake bar. Cold, fruity, and great for a summer wedding!

    We are having red and white wine, and cocktails. There is a list of about 10 cocktails we can choose from that sound delicious!

    No, we ended up paying extra for the table wine. We really wanted something local. So we ended up skipping the signature drink.

    We were thinking about it but wanted to keep things simple so we did a "Mr" drink which is Canadian beer and a "Mrs" drink which is just vodka and cranberry juice Smiley smile

    We'll be doing a signature cocktail: blue lagoon (AKA the peacock) with vodka, blue curacao and lemonade.

    We get a signature drink with our alcohol package. We haven’t picked one yet but I want something icy and ideally blue.

    We get a signature cocktail included in our venue catering fee. So we’ll think of something fun!

    Doubtful. We haven't really talked about this, but we'll probably be sticking with whatever our venue does. We don't really have any ideas for signature drinks.

    We provided our own alcohol. We did have a drink list just because we bought a limited variety.

    We're not having any special drinks, but we are having a deluxe open bar with my FH's favourite black label.

    FH is bringing in his favorite German beer and I will create a special cocktail for his and her drinks.

    Offering the basic bar drinks and mix.

    No special wine, *favourite craft beer, and no top secret recipes here.

    We may either make a couple drinks that have our colours incorporated into them or just rename a tequila sunrise "The Bride" and either Kokanee or Whiskey + Pepsi "The Groom"

    We are having homemade wine at the tables and then I have a cocktail I make all the time I really like- vodka, pineapple juice, ginger-ale, cranberry juice and he is a rye and coke.

    Were not doing signature drinks... we both prefer beer so nothing really appealed to us mixed drink wise. Our guests can choose what ever they like from the bar.
