If you haven't checked out http://www.brides.com/, the website for Brides magazine, you are missing out! This site is FULL of great ideas, and is just plain fun to look at! One of my favorites that I ran across recently was fun drink ideas - creating a signature cocktail for your big day and adding flowers to it is a great way to either tie your colors into the menu or liven up what is usually a pretty run-of-the-mill aspect of your reception.
The picture at the left shows a rose sparkling wine with peach-colored rose petals floating in the glasses. Roses are definitely edible and not at all overpowering in their taste, so they are the perfect compliment to drinks! This is perfect for a spring or early summer wedding, or one with a garden-inspired theme.
Plumeria also makes a vibrant garnish for this tropical punch drink.
This cool lavendar cocktail uses lavendar frozen into ice cubes as a way to enhance the flavor of the drink, but also incorporate wedding colors into the reception's drinks.
Here's the link to the recipe - it sounds delicious!
These are just a few ideas of how to incorporate flowers into your reception drinks. Spend enough time on Brides' website and I'm sure you'll find tons more! Please feel free to share if you come across any other ideas!
