Sparkling wine like Freixenet isn’t only about tall elegant fizz flutes; cocktails are always a creative and fun option that can be customized for each wedding. In fact, custom cocktails are popping up all across the UK, adding the perfect personal touch to a wedding day by creating a special flavour unique to the bride and groom.

Wedding cocktails reflect the personality or taste of the happy couple! It can be inspired by anything related to the couple and creatively reflected by the ingredients, the garnishes and the décor of the glasses.

Before creating the signature drink, it is essential to find out the theme of the wedding—the cuisine, setting, décor—and their flavour preferences, from syrups to style of sparklers. Sharing a custom cocktail is a certainly nice way to bring everyone at a wedding together. Sparkling wine-based cocktails are always a wise choice to help  keep that celebratory feel thanks to the delicious bubbles.
