    I'm racking my brain trying to figure out what to serve as far as beverages.

     

    And what I am thinking is this:

    Having those cool little drink dispensers (like for iced tea and stuff) and having different drinks from that with signs.

     

    The drinks that I am thinking about are:

    -Sangria (like in Four Weddings...LOVED that idea)

    -Bellini (in the dispenser too, would this work?)

    -Lemonade

    -Iced Tea

     

    What other options should I consider? It will be in June and be hot, so I figure that having colder beverages would be best. 

     

    Any thoughts?

    How about mimosas or bloody mary's?  They're probably the most popular brunch drinks.

    I second mimosas and bloody marys.  I would probably serve those plus iced tea and probably orange juice or some other kind of juice.

    My friend had freshly-made mojitos at her brunch reception. And I personally love Pimm's Cup for a summer drink.

    But your sangria and bellini options sound delish!

    I like the sangria idea--are you thinking red sangria, or a white sangria?  Either might be nice in a pitcher.  Ooooh, Bloody Mary spells brunch!

    @Miss Longcoat:I'm thinking red sangria. This is because of the Bellini option, being a white wine/champagne option. I think that would be best. I know a lot of guest who love red wine =]

    I think you've got quite a list going then!

     Mimosas are perfect, BUT, give it some color with a slice of a BLOOD Orange. The drink is very refreshing and chic.

    Sangria, I get very nervous it can ruin a dress if someone spills it on them.

    I agree that Sangria could get messy. But it's a chance I'm willing to take. =] No one is getting drunk (hopefully...) at my wedding, and there's no dancing. So, not a lot of opportunities for spilling. Anyway, I'm liking my list more and more. Thanks for the advice bees! =]

    I would consider doing one dispenser with ice water as well.....add lime/lemon or cucumber sliced to infuse the water (plus they look pretty!).
