If you're planning a wedding in 2025, spoiler alert: we are moving past your average open bar. This is the year couples go all-in on personal and unforgettable beverage moments.
At Liquid Caterers, we’ve had the privilege of helping couples reimagine how their drinks are served and savored. From bold palettes to booze-free bevys, here are the trends defining the next wave of weddings:
It’s time to let the celebration start the moment guests arrive. Couples are skipping the "wait 'til cocktail hour" tradition in favor of custom spritzes, sparkling mocktails, or mini signature cocktails served from roaming carts, tap walls, or charming service trays.
Booze-free doesn’t mean boring. In 2025, spirit-free cocktails are front and center with thoughtful builds, elevated garnishes, and just as much flair as their boozy counterparts. Whether it's non-alcoholic, zero-proof replacements or dabbling in nootropics, guests are sipping with intention.
Your guests deserve options that feel fun, festive, and inclusive—without sacrificing sophistication.
Forget the basic bar. 2025 is about drink experiences. Picture this:
It’s about stimulating every sense!
Today’s couples care about environmental impact, and their menus and essentials reflect it. Expect completely edible garnishes, seasonal mixers, and curated ingredients from local vendors. Products trend towards those that are recyclable, reusable and biodegradable. Mindful doesn’t have to mean drab—it can be downright stunning.
With more couples choosing intimate guest counts, the focus has shifted to high-touch experiences: custom drink menus, mixology moments, branded bar details, and storytelling in every glass.
If you're planning a 2025 wedding, let's make it yours in every sense. Liquid Caterers will help you build an experience your guests won’t stop talking about.
