More cocktails than just signature drinks?

Amy, on November 11, 2019 at 2:18 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 8

For our wedding, we are going to have at least two signature drinks - a gin and tonic, and a vodka drink. The bar will also have two kinds of beer and 3 wine options. If we are doing signature drinks, do we need to offer other mixers in case people want something else? Or since we are having beer and wine as well, it will be fine? I keep going back and forth on this. We are obviously trying to keep costs lower, but want to make sure our guests are satisfied.

Thank you!

    No, these options are totally fine.

    I prefer a regular open bar with no signature drinks, then a limited open bar with signature drinks. I'm more of a whiskey or tequila person, so neither of those drinks would appeal to me.

    Those options are fine, but if it's in your budget, I would add a cocktail with dark liquor or swap one of yours out for dark liquor. One light and one dark will appear to a wider variety of guests.

    We offered beer, wine, and one signature drink. Our guests were very happy with the offerings but I agree with Caytlyn's recommendation if you think that may work for your guests. As with almost all things in wedding planning, know your crowd.

    I think your options are fine. We are just having beer, wine, soda and water.

    I think your options are fine. We are just doing 2 types of beer and 2 types of wine. Any liquor guests will have to pay for themselves.

    To cut costs a little bit, we are only offering our signature drinks during cocktail hour. Our reception will be an open bar which can get pricey very quickly which is why we are limiting the cocktail hour drinks to two. If people don't like one of our options, then they can wait an hour to get a drink.
