When you're planning your wedding, every choice is important, from the wedding venue to table settings. Perhaps one of the most important intricacies of your big day is the drinks. Lackluster beverages and catering at your wedding set a negative tone for your guests, while good drinks will get people talking and dancing. Here are a few of the best drinks for your wedding—with and without alcohol.

5 Ideal Drink Options for Your Wedding

1. Distinctive Cocktails

Wedding VenueA fun trend for newlyweds is to choose one or two distinctive cocktails as the signature drink for your wedding. Visually striking choices, like cotton candy cocktails or raspberry floaters, will be memorable as well as delicious.

2. Virgin Blended Drinks

On the flip side, offer something just as good as your signature cocktail for guests who don’t drink alcohol. Virgin piña coladas, Shirley Temples, and Bloody Marys are all popular options.

3. Floats & Malts

For a lighthearted approach that’s perfect for summer, serve ice cream drinks! Not many guests will say no to root beer floats, sherbet punch, and malted shakes.

4. Local Wine

For a touch of class and personal flair, choose one or more wines unique to your area. Out-of-town guests will get to try something new, and you'll get to celebrate a connection to your home or wedding venue locale.

5. Sparkling Punch

Go wild with your favorite combination of fruit juices and sodas. Not only is the result colorful and sweet, but you can easily elevate the drink with a garnish of fresh mint, fruit, or citrus peel.

As you arrange your wedding venue, decorations, and itinerary, don't forget to plan your drink menu as well. A thoughtful selection of beverages can take a beautiful event to the next level for both you and your guests. Plan ahead and choose a drink that perfectly fits your special day!
