Secure Your Key Event Professionals As Soon As Possible
Fall is a popular time for vineyards so make sure to book your venue early . This means other vendors like Caterers and Photographers will be booking fast too - so secure your key event professionals as soon as possible .
“ Take advantage of the beauty around you ,” says Mahan . “ The pantone season colors work seamlessly with the greens and golden tones of the vineyards , tie all this together while keeping it unique to you .”
Include a Signature Cocktail
Signature cocktails are a popular way of personalizing your wedding . Keep in mind that due to licensing , a lot of wineries do not allow hard liquor , only beer and wine . Make sure to speak to your venue to find out their policies to see what is allowed .
“ If a signature cocktail is something you have your heart set on , and hard liquor is not an option , make a sangria . There are so many amazing recipes out there and you can really customize a beautiful drink without the need for hard liquor ,” says Mahan .
Try Farm to Fork
Another great way to offer your guests a unique experience is to incorporate a “ Farm to Fork ” experience . Many caterers use all local produce and meats , offer a seasonal locally sourced menu , and provide different stations for guests to visit with a wine paring incorporated . This makes for not only an eye catching display but also is interactive for your guests , and will leave them talking about their experience at your wedding for years to come .
