Gin has become the Nation's favourite drink, and rightly so - refreshing, zesty and perfect for a summer wedding. If you're a gin-lover, why not take a look at some of these fab ways to include the drink in your day.

The Gin Bar

Pimp your prosecco is out and the gin bars are in! Whether you're just after a selection of your favourite G&T's or some fabulous gin cocktails for your guests to enjoy on the day, there are plenty of options and quirky styles out there to suit all tastes. You could opt for a simple bar set up, buy your own bottles for guests to have a tipple, or hire something quirkier like a converted horse and cart! You'll find lots of ideas over on Pinterest.

Wedding Favours

Sales of mini bottles of gin have slowly been on the rise over the last year (check out the facts online) and they can certainly go down a treat. If you like making your own, homemade sloe gin is also great for wedding favours. Guests can take them home or use them in the toasts as an alternative to prosecco. You can even personalise the labels for your wedding day - cute, no?

Gin Lollies

Great for a summer wedding as afternoon refreshments - perhaps an alternative to canapes or an evening reception snack to keep those guests happy?

Centrepieces

A simple DIY centrepiece idea that's a real money saver! Pop some simple flowers in these custom vases and Bob's your uncle - pretty, unique, plus everyone can see each other across the table. Although you can still have an elaborate floral arrangement if you like.

Wedding Gifts
