Refeshing spring drinks for your garden wedding!

Weddings are a whole lot of fun, both for the couple saying “I do” with stars in the eyes, and the guests who are enthralled by the love in the air. Sure the flowers are fresh and fragrant, and the dress sure brings the glint in your lover's eyes, and the carefully curated decor in the color palette of your choice in your dream wedding venue is just perfect. But that’s the part that the couple usually cares about the most. The guest in fact might be interested in something else. Let’s face it, the food, dancing, and drinks are what most people will remember about your wedding. Obviously, your guests will appreciate the small, personal details you incorporate into your big day, but it’s the food, drinks, and dancing that will leave the most lasting impression. This spring, why not wow your guests with an amazingly fresh and vivacious cocktail?

 

While with a gorgeous spring wedding at work, there are several different routes you can take with the drinks served on your special day. If you have a special place in your heart for a garden wedding, there are certain things that you can consider while planning your wedding which are bound to pull any drinks towards a raving success:

 

Berries: Cocktails sprinkled with berries are something that can add a bit of spring to any drinking glass. Not only is it perfectly seasonal, but it also adds a vibrant punch of flavor and color to the outdoor bar.
