Next I'm going to talk about how to come up with a signature cocktail. Its kind of a popular thing now a days. Is people are coming up with a signature cocktail that's going to relate to their theme and to the individuality of the bride and groom And typically the signature cocktail is displayed, or passed during the cocktail hour. Some people will carry it over into the reception. But its just kind of a nice fun thing you might want to add to your cocktail hour. And what you can do is, you want to think a the casual beach again as your theme. So you want to think something beachy, something like a passion fruit, a mango, a rum drink, tequila. And many people will tint their drink to the same color as their, their wedding colors. And say you have blue, you might want to have it tinted. Or you might want to come up with some sort of daiquiri or a martini that might be tinted blue with your theme. And you might want to stick something like a fun umbrella in on your signature drink. Just to kind of dress it up and make it a little fun and colorful. And another thing you might want to think about doing when you are doing your signature drink, is having the actual servers pass it on the tray. And having a little tip card. And Maybe naming your signature cocktail after something that's special to you and your fiance. Or just having a description of what it is and what's in it. And you can also display that at the bar as well so people know that it is a signature cocktail. It is something that you guys created for your guests to go along with your theme. So those are a few ideas and a few ways that you can incorporate, and how you can kind of come up with a signature cocktail for your wedding."
