1. Colourful set-up
At your wedding, the professional cocktail shaker will be happy to build his own spot into an island of tranquillity and charm, a space where your guests can take their time to enjoy the unique drinks. The colourful set-up, whether from a private mobile cocktail bar or not, is a treat for everyone's eye. The artful drinks, a treat for your taste buds.
2. Indulge your senses
Cocktails look seductive and exotic, and usually taste delicious thanks to surprising flavour combos and garnishings. Think of the combination of green mint and lime in the Mojito, white rum and lime juice in the Daiquiri, or the white foam layer on top of the dark layer of coffee in the Espresso Martini. Or, admire and taste the dark red depth of the Manhattan or the Negroni or feel in your trembling hands the icy charm of the frozen Limoncello Lemon Crush or the cool crunch of the Ginnic Almond Skin. Tastecocktails with all your senses!
3. Your own signature cocktail
You lovingly chose the right main dish for your wedding dinner. Search with equal devotion for your perfect cocktail for the late hours! Choose a flavour you both love and a colour that perfectly matches your mood board. This way, you will create a gem of a cocktail that you can further personalise by giving it your own name. This can be inspired by you and your partner's names, but also, for example, by a beautiful memory you have together. Admit it: "Amalfi Spritz" sounds delicious, doesn't it?
4. Shake it all over!
Flair tenders have flair and the spectacle value of their throwing and catching bottles, glasses and ice cubes will stay with your guests forever. Many cocktail shakers who admired Brian Flanagan's (Tom Cruise) finger-snapping tricks in the film Cocktail will be happy to take you through their dazzling flair tending performance.
5. Lucky mocktails
Some guests also go the non-alcoholic route on principle, bringing you home safely as BOB or being pregnant during your party. Luckily, you can offer a tempting array of 'mocktails' for them too: non-alcoholic cocktails served equally in those special glasses. A friendly bartender will magically transform fruity juices, lemonades and pieces of fresh or frozen fruit into genuine look-alikes of the real cocktail. Mjam!
