Booking a Utah mobile bartender is a great way to add a unique, fun touch to your wedding. If your wedding is taking place in a non-traditional location, like a farm or a big top tent in a beautiful outdoor location, there may not be a bar already in place. A mobile bar can provide everything you need to treat your guests to some liquid fun.
But this isn’t the only reason to book a mobile bartender. Even if your space has a bar, booking a mobile bartender is a chance to choose a customized package, allowing you to select everything from your drinks to the location of your bar.
One of the best parts about hiring a mobile bartender for your wedding? The chance to plan some wedding cocktails for your guests to enjoy! Whether you want to create a tasty and unique blend or prefer to give a classic drink a fun, themed name, keep reading to learn a few ideas for some wedding cocktails your Utah mobile bartender can serve.
A Classic Mint Julep—With a Twist
This Mint Julep is the ultimate Southern cocktail. If you’re looking for a classy drink for your modern black-tie affair, this is a great choice. But for a fun, custom touch, add your favorite flavored syrup to the recipe. Some great additions to this classic cocktail include:
- Cherry liqueur
- Chocolate liqueur
- Orange liqueur
- Peach liqueur
Talk to your mobile bartender while planning out your selection of mixers to see what they have available or to ask for suggestions.
A Pink Mimosa
For a drink that’s as pretty as it is tasty, try this Pink Mimosa. This fun cocktail starts with your choice of champagne and orange juice. Then, take things up a notch with some pineapple juice and orange liqueur. You can also swap the pineapple juice for grapefruit juice or the regular orange juice for blood orange juice.
This colorful drink is a great addition to the menu for a wedding day brunch or a spring wedding.
Beer Margarita
For an outdoor summer wedding or a laid-back reception where you’re hoping your guests will dance the night away, this next drink is certain to be a hit. The Beer Margarita is just as fun as it sounds. It combines two of the most popular party drinks for a combo that tastes just like a warm summer night.
Talk to your bartender about creating the perfect margarita recipe, and choosing the right beer to add to this cocktail.
Grapefruit Whiskey Sour
This next wedding cocktail adds a fruity touch to an otherwise classic drink. To make a Grapefruit Whiskey Sour, start with your choice of whiskey—your Utah mobile bartender will help you choose the right one! Then, add your sugar or simple syrup and a squeeze of lemon juice. But instead of adding an orange peel, this cocktail calls for some grapefruit juice.
The result is a slightly sweet, colorful cocktail that’s a great choice for a spring wedding. If you’re planning a formal affair, this drink is still classic enough, but with just a touch of fun.
A Pink Toast
If you’re planning a champagne toast but want to dress up your glasses with some color, this simple cocktail is a great choice. All you’ll need is a splash of peach schnapps and grenadine, added to your choice of champagne.
The result is a deep pink, fruit drink your guests will want to keep toasting all night long. This is also a simple, fresh cocktail that’s great for a wedding day breakfast or brunch.
Blackberry Spritz
This is another colorful concoction that’s great for spring and summer weddings. This is a surprisingly simple, refreshing drink that can be easily customized. The base is made from club soda, vodka, and lime. Then, add some blackberries, or your choice of other flavors or fruits for a fun and easy drink your mobile bartender will be whipping up again and again.
If you have your heart set on creating custom drinks with fun names, this cocktail is a great choice. You can choose your flavors and mixers to create unique colors that lend themselves to fun names. For instance, you can add a splash of blue curacao to turn this drink into the “Something Blue” cocktail. A splash of grenadine turns this into the perfect “Drunk in Love” drink.

Naming Your Wedding Cocktails
Choosing your wedding cocktail recipes is only the first step—the next step is naming them. Giving your cocktails a name adds a simple, customized touch to your wedding bar.
The sky’s the limit when it comes to giving your cocktail menu names. Some couples opt to each choose a cocktail and then assign a name that’s a play on their own. Others choose fun puns that are certain to make your guests chuckle when they order.
Some fun wedding cocktail names include:
- Marry Me Mule
- Love Potion
- Bloody Marry Me
- Forever & Ale-Ways
- Pretty-in-Pink—a great choice for the Pink Mimosa!
- Honey I Do Martini
- I-Do Brew
- Grinning Groom
- Alter-ed State
- Mint-to-Be Mojito
Don’t forget to include a bar menu in your planning so that you can show off your wedding cocktails, and let guests know what they can order.
