You Can Find Me At The Bar...

We've all heard how offering a "signature drink" can help cut down on the bar tab; my booze vendor confirmed the rumor. Instead of a full bar, my bartender will offer beer/wine and a vodka/bourbon bar - two liquors - anyway you want 'em and we'll special feature the blushing bride and golden groom! Our blushing bride will be cranberry-pink lemonade with a twist of lemon and of course, vodka with and a gold sugar rim. The golden groom will be a pineapple puree shaken with ice, pineapple juice, and vodka with a gold sugar rim to make it "golden"!
I found 3-gallon "unbreakable" beverage dispensers exactly like the ones pictured below at Sam's Club for $20 that can be used forever and ever... These are perfect for signature drinks because they can be used as part of the decor and, if you don't add the liquor in the mixture, the little guests at your reception can enjoy the signature drink as well (the liquor can be shaken in)!
Martha suggests you "raise the bar with a drink-recipe display that does double duty as a decoration" like the one pictured below.
Are you having a bar? Got any money saving or decor tips?
