US Magazine was all abuzz about the recent wedding of star Shannen Doherty. She wore $750k in glittery, sparkly diamonds and wore three different beautiful dresses. When she wed photographer Kurt Iswarienko on October 15th in Malibu, California, she told US Magazine “I felt like a fairy-tale princess.” Just as every bride should!

Guests enjoyed a delicious meal including baked macaroni and cheese infused with truffles (yum!) and a signature cocktail created especially for the event by celebrity mixologist James Moreland called Truly Yours. The Truly Yours cocktail featured vodka, champagne, pomegranate and pear. Sounds scrumptious & very romantic too!

The signature cocktail has been a popular choice with many brides and grooms. One of the reasons to choose a signature cocktail is this is a fun way to bring the theme of your wedding into the wedding reception. Your signature cocktail can also express something about your personal couple personality and style, a wonderful way to start your new life together as a couple.

Plan ahead if you’d like a signature cocktail, because you’ll certainly want to sample it. Both of you will want to like the cocktail – and to also agree that your guests will like it too. Many event planners, caterers and bartenders are familiar with creating signature cocktails. It can be helpful to bring some suggestions or ideas if you have a favorite flavor or alcohol you’d like included – but it’s not always necessary.

Remember part of the fun of your signature cocktail is pouring it into an attractive glass (like a champagne or martini glass) and consider adding accessories like fruit, pretty straws or swizzle sticks or even those classic paper umbrellas we know and love.

Adding a signature cocktail is fun – the perfect “mix” for your wedding reception!
