Have a wedding coming up and the groom asked me to provide drinks for both the groom and bridal party for the time between the ceremony and reception (the reception venue is just a few blocks from the church).

At first I thought about buying daiquiris but now I am thinking of making a batch of punch and put it in a Gatorade type cooler in the back of my SUV and pour into cups as needed.

Y’all have any good punch recipes? Something not too sweet, but will still satisfy the bridal party.

No offense but that sounds like a horrible idea. Nothing speaks balling harder on a wedding day than a gatorade cooler in the back of the car.

First, do something wedding themed. Like frozen drinks for the ladies with a wedding cake flavor. Maybe try to make some wedding cake flavored jello shots too or something along those lines.

Guys are easy--if the groom is giving out flasks for gifts, just make sure they're full of bourbon and have the ice and rock glasses ready. Do not, by any means, use plastic or styro cups. Glassware, glassware, glassware for everyone

Not what I was asking but thanks.

Just doing what the groom has asked. The gatorade cooler is for transport. The drinks will be set up in the holding rooms for the respective groups. I have been given "party" cups with the wedding logo on them for everyone. The group will be walking 2-3 city blocks and would like a drink for the walk.

Anyone have any good punch recipes?

Peel, seed and shave 6 cucumbers. Macerate in the bottom of your cooler. add 1 gallon of your favorite lemonade and a 1/5 of your favorite vodka. Fill two 1 gallon ziplock bags with ice and float them. Have a cooler with martini glasses buried in ice. Pull a glass out dump the ice out and fill with the "Vodka Gardener"

Sorry didn't see your Party cup post. Skip the 'tini glasses then.
