Fall Cocktails

It’s that time of year again! Fall is in full swing, the leaves have begun to change and there are pumpkins aplenty. Here at The Event Group, we are always using seasonal inspiration for our events and weddings. It is always great to have a few seasonal cocktail recipes up your sleeve. A seasonal cocktail is a great option to serve as a specialty drink at your wedding—it can add just the right amount of the season into your special day! For fall, we have gathered some of our favorites.

What are your favorite fall libations? Remember to get creative and use things like cinnamon sticks as stirrers, hollowed out apples as glasses or garnish with fall fruits for an extra festive touch.

Fancy Feet

You have your groom, hopefully you have your venue and vendors but do you have the perfect shoes, like our bride above, to carry you down the aisle? Look no further because here at The Event Group, we love shoes and have picked out some gorgeous options for your ‘I Do’s’.

From brights to neutrals, we have pulled a shoe to suit anyone’s taste. Emerald green is Pantone’s color of the year so it would be the perfect color choice. If you’re in need of “something blue”, Badgley Mischka and Manolo Blahnik are the perfect choice. Christian Louboutin, and Jimmy Choo offer some great neutrals and metallics while Valentino offers stunning d’orsay pumps with a sparkling bow.

What do you plan on wearing on your feet for your wedding day? What is your favorite pick from our selection?

Groomsmen Gifts

Though equally important as bridesmaid gifts, groomsmen can be a bit harder to shop for. Not to worry, here at The Event Group, we have scoured the best sources to provide you with a list that any guy would love.

Groomsmen Gifts

Personalize Needlepoint Flask/ Engraved Cigar Case/ Alma Mater Cufflinks 

Personalize Sports Framed Photo/ Leather Wallet / Shaving Kit

Aren’t these options fun? These options are classic, high quality, thoughtful and something that each groomsman will have for years to come.

The cufflinks on our list were inspired by this photo that we came across on Pinterest. We love pinning and are always finding great ways to celebrate a couple’s special day. Check out what else we have pinned on our Event Group Pinterest page! What are you getting your groomsmen or what is something that you have received as a groomsman?
