Wedding Cocktails Your Guests Will LOVE
When it comes to planning your wedding, it’s the little details that make the biggest difference and your drinks menu is no exception!
The right cocktail can set the tone, get everyone talking, and keep the celebration flowing all night long.
At Serve, we’ve seen (and mixed!) our fair share of crowd-pleasers, and we know that keeping your wedding bar simple, stylish, and stress-free is key. Whether you’re planning a marquee wedding in Cornwall, a rustic barn in Devon, or a modern celebration by the coast, these wedding cocktail ideas are guaranteed to go down a treat.
Aperol Spritz - Effortless Sunshine in a Glass 🍊
Light, refreshing, and beautifully photogenic, the Aperol Spritz is a wedding-day staple for a reason. It’s perfect for summer receptions, easy to batch for large guest lists, and looks stunning in every toast photo.
Serve’s tip: Have trays of pre-mixed spritzes ready for arrival, nothing says “celebration” like bubbles and orange slices glinting in the sun.
Picante de la Casa - The Spicy Signature 🌶️
Want a cocktail with personality? The Picante brings a little fire to your bar menu. With tequila, lime, agave, and a hint of chilli, it’s the drink everyone talks about.
Serve’s tip: Give guests the choice of “a little kick” or “extra spicy” it makes the bar experience fun and interactive.
Mojito - The Timeless Crowd-Pleaser 🍋
Fresh, minty, and full of energy, the Mojito never fails. It’s easy to batch, light enough for day-time service, and refreshing enough to keep the party going all night.
Serve’s tip: Keep plenty of crushed ice and mint on hand. Presentation makes all the difference when serving large crowds.
Espresso Martini - The Late-Night Favourite ☕
Once dinner’s done and the music starts, Espresso Martinis are a guaranteed hit. Smooth, rich, and energising, they bridge the gap between dessert and dance floor perfectly.
Serve’s tip: Prepare and chill your espresso in advance so the bar team can mix and pour efficiently without slowing down service. It keeps the drinks cold, the line moving, and your guests dancing.
Hugo Spritz - The New Wedding Favourite 🌸
A softer, more romantic twist on the classic Spritz. Made with elderflower, Prosecco, soda, and mint, the Hugo Spritz is elegant, floral, and perfect for an outdoor or garden wedding.
Serve’s tip: Add edible flowers or a sprig of rosemary for a refined finish, small touches go a long way.
