Short answer
Signature drinks work best when they are simple, personal and easy to make in bulk. Think of a cocktail named after you, a seasonal spritz, or a non-alcoholic mocktail that matches your wedding colours.
A signature drink adds a personal touch without much effort. Start with a drink you both love, then give it a name that means something to you, like your surname or the place you got engaged. A classic option is a gin and tonic with a twist, such as elderflower and cucumber. For summer, a fruity spritz with prosecco, Aperol or a non-alcoholic alternative is refreshing. For winter, a warm mulled wine or a spiced apple punch works well.
You can also create two signature drinks, one alcoholic and one not, so everyone feels included. Use the same base, like a berry syrup, and make both versions. Ask your venue or bartender to batch-mix them before the reception, so guests are served quickly. Add a small sign with the drink's name and ingredients, and maybe a story about why you chose it. Keep the recipe simple, with no more than three or four ingredients, so it is easy to reproduce. You could also offer a coffee-based drink for later in the evening, like an espresso martini or a hot chocolate with a shot.
