A yacht wedding is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, so it’s only fitting to serve unique cocktails at your reception. Fruity summer mixes are the best way to celebrate your nautical nuptials. To help you get started on your signature cocktail list, here are five excellent recipes for a charter boat wedding.

What Custom Cocktails Should You Create for Your Yacht Wedding? 

1. Strawberry Rosé Punch

Every wedding needs a bubbly beverage to commence the festivities. A strawberry rosé punch is a sweet and simple cocktail that’s perfect for toasting, dining, and dancing. This drink only requires pink Moscato champagne, frozen strawberries, simple syrup, and lemon-lime soda, so they’re quick and easy for the bartender to prepare.

2. Lavender Lemonade Martini

Nothing says summer like an ice cold lemonade. Incorporate the sunny season into your theme with a lavender lemonade martini, complete with vodka, fresh-squeezed lemon juice, lavender simple syrup, and lovely sprigs of lavender for garnish. This classy cocktail will provide your guests with a refreshing touch of nostalgia.

3. Bourbon Peach Sweet Tea

Take a Southern-inspired cocktail out on blue waters with bourbon peach sweet tea. Made with smooth bourbon, fresh peaches, sweet tea, lemon juice, and a splash of Aperol, this delicious cocktail will impress all guests of drinking age. To complete the aesthetic, have your bartender serve this beverage in a mason jar with a sprig of thyme and a lemon slice.

4. Coconut Margarita

Yacht weddings are perfectly suited to a tropical theme, so embrace that imagery with coconut margaritas. These creamy coconut cocktails will make you feel like you’re on vacation, encouraging everyone to unwind and have fun. All you’ll need is tequila, triple sec, cream of coconut, and fresh-squeezed lime juice. They can be served frozen or on the rocks.

5. Pineapple Mango Rum Punch

A sweet, fruity punch is the perfect drink to make in batches. Prepared with mango juice, orange juice, pineapple coconut juice, coconut rum, a dash of grenadine, and fruit slices for garnish, pineapple mango rum punch will hit the spot on a sunny day of boating. This vibrant beverage brings a tropical splash of color to any wedding.
