    Hi bees!! :)  We are at a less than 3 month countdown!! :)  I was wondering if anybody had some yummy signature drinks picked out for their wedding yet that they could share...  Our colors are dark teal (Alfred Angelo's "Tealness"), ivory and champagne and gold here and there...  I am trying to figure out options for some drinks... I would love to have a teal one, a white one and .... ?  Not sure! :)  Any ideas/suggestions are appreciated!!

    Thank you!

    Hypnotic and Blue-UV vodka are blue. Some sort of martini? We are doing pink martinis and then either rimming the glass with pink sugar, or using a rock candy sucker as stir stick.

    Teal, I think would be a pretty hard colour to match perfectly without adding dye. Which I don't suggest you do in case of any spills, but there are many blue drinks if your not too picky about colour.  Like missa2152: suggested you can buy teal sugar to rim glasses with & that would look pretty cool if you had a champange colour drink.

    I know this is a Canadian site, but they have lots of ideas with pictures of what you can do!

    Thank you ladies! I really like the idea of the colored sugar!! @missa2152, the rock candy is succcch a cute idea! Wish we could do the same but we're getting married in MX so I don't think that would fly in Customs :( 

     

    So far I've got a teal/blue martini, teal/blue margarita, a white coconut martini drink, but I need one other white drink and a shot! :)

    @TheFutureMrsC: You usually can bring candy through customs without any problems.

    @AprilJo2011:  Thanks! :) I'm just really nervous about having to leave things behind, but if that's the case, bring on the rock candy! ;)

    Blue Curacao looks like teal!

    And since your getting married in Mexico, I'm assuming beach wedding?

    So you could do a blue hawaiian or blue marg and then a pina colada for your white drink!

    For a shot I would suggest a really nice Tequilla, since you are in mexico!

     

    For a white drink, what about a vanilla daquiri? They are delicious, and maybe you could make it a Virgin one for guests who don't drink.

     

    p.s. Date twins! Laughing

    @AnnieAAA:  Yes i'm noticing that all of the 'drink' recipes that I'm googling involve Curacao!  We won't be getting married on the beach but either/or works!! :)  Blue Hawaiian is actually one of the drinks I just jotted down! Wink  Great minds think alike ;) How could I have forgotten about the piña colada?! :) Duhhh me! Thanks!!

     

    @miss_scarlet:  Love the idea of the virgin vanilla daiquiri!! Thank you!! And ahh date twin!! 87 days!!!!!!!!!!!  :) :) :) are you freaking out yet? ;)

    And yes I'm freaking out because I am way behind schedule on so much stuff! I hope everything comes together in time!
