Individual Signature Drinks Sealed In Mason Jars

Mason jars pre-filled with your favorite signature drink and kept cold on ice, all prepackaged and ready to drink. No bartender needed! A simple idea, easy to execute and so easy for guests to make their choice of their favorite drink. Add your personalized labels with your monogram and the name of the drink enclosed.

 I know mason jars are big at weddings recently and this is one of the best ideas I've seen. Putting the drinks together yourself can save a bridal couple big bucks by purchasing their own liquor and mixers and not having to pay and tip a bartender. Hope this idea helps some brides out there!

Serving Drinks in Mason Jars? Make Them Pretty Enough For Your Wedding

As pretty as these mason jars are, check out the upgrade below to see how to really make them pop!

Mason jars are perfect for serving summer cool drinks like lemonades but sometimes it's the presentation that makes all the difference. Use etching cream (like Armour Etch, found at your local craft store) and make a template by tracing your monogram onto some Contact paper. Cut out your monogram with a craft knife and stick the Contact paper to the mason jar. Use a Q-tip for an applicator and put the etching cream over your monogram (use gloves so no etching cream gets on your hands). Let sit for about five minutes. Rinse and peel off paper, then let dry. It may look like it isn't etched after rinsing, be patient, it will. Then wash to be sure all etching chemicals are removed. Serve you drinks at your wedding in these upgraded mason jars with your own personal touch. Photo and basic directions courtesy of Southern Bride Magazine.
