Guests were greeted by waiters carrying trays of celebratory Champagne as they exited the ceremony, and a full bar was set up in the cocktail grove.
This duo’s monogram was stamped on to drink stirrers and napkins by ForYourParty to accompany their signature drink of Ketel One vodka, seltzer, and mango, peach, and passionfruit juices.
To bring their wedding colors to life (literally), this couple outfitted waiters in stylish jackets, custom made in the hues of the day.
The bride made these paper straws tagged with kraft paper flags to serve with cocktails.
Celebrants at this wedding swizzled cocktails with “You Stir Me” flags.
This couple got their party started with a traveling prosecco cart, which rolled around to guests to let them customize their bubbly.
Giant diamonds, chiseled by an ice sculptor, were set on a massive carved ice bar at this New York wedding. Frozen coolers held Champagne, while rose petals and strawberry slices rested in square dishes of clear acrylic.
This couple made "sip and repeat" coasters for the cocktail hour. The project was simple: a custom stamp pressed onto premade kraft coasters using white ink.

This bride illustrated cheery cards listing the ingredients of each drink, and hung them next to the bar.

For a pop of aroma and color, garnish your signature cocktails with fresh herbs. At this wedding, sprigs of lavender doubled as a drink stirrer.
For their destination wedding in Mexico, this couple had a serve-yourself mojito bar, complete with a crate of limes, a pot of fresh mint, and five different flavors: mango, strawberry with basil, guava, hibiscus, and blue Curacao. Mini umbrellas were given to guests to garnish their drinks.
This couple placed bright paper parasols on cocktail glasses to give them some extra flair.
A Prosecco tower overlooking a gorgeous Tuscan vista helped put everyone at this wedding in an effervescent mood. Also on offer: locally sourced meats, cheeses, and passed hors d'oeuvres.
