The love for beer is precisely the love that deserves to be honored on the biggest day of your life, especially if you enjoy the taste of beer as a couple and plan to do so for the rest of your life! As we are seeing a rise in the craft beer culture we are also seeing a rise in more and more couples incorporating beer-inspired wedding details on the biggest day of their lives. There are so many fun and still chic ways to incorporate beer into your big day- from beautifully handcrafted DIY wedding details to exclusive cozy and small wedding ideas. But, apart from serving brews in unique ways (think beer flights and custom tap bars), it's also important to remember what you are serving the guest for an inspirational cocktail hour. Right now, there are so many great options on the market that with a little research, you can find something to suit everyone's tastes. Whether you are hosting your wedding at a brewery as there are so many statement-making wedding venues that are actually breweries or just save up the most coveted spot on the bar menu for a handcrafted assortment of beers for your elegant beach wedding. 

As the craft beer culture continues to grow, it's becoming more and more popular for beer enthusiast couples to integrate their shared love for craft beer into their big day – and we are not just talking about what’s offered behind the bar. For instance, you can get your guests in the mood with beer and hors d'oeuvres pairings at your wedding cocktail hour, with bite-sized delicacies specially selected to balance the flavor of petite beer flights. If you are hosting an elegant summer wedding, offer a toast in personalized pint glasses or pilsners with dinner, as well as favorite brews at the bar. Wines and whiskeys aged in beer barrels are a great way to round out the bar menu while staying on the theme and maintaining consistency in flavor, and summer shandies are ideal for the warmer months. Here are some great ideas for incorporating fun beer-themed touches into your wedding day and wedding events, whether you've chosen a brewery location as your wedding venue or decided to send out elegant wedding invites with hints of the drink, or implement a beer-themed wedding at a different venue type, or just want to incorporate some fun beer-themed touches into your wedding day and wedding events.

Beer infused wedding ideas that we are swooning over:

Choose a brewery wedding venue 

Unique wedding venues have become increasingly popular in recent years. Many couples are choosing amazing locations to start their new beginnings and opting to exchange their vows in beautiful and laid-back brewery settings. As a result, many to-be married couples opt for wedding venues that are more personal to them. One might simply admire the art of brewing, or perhaps simply want to surprise their wedding guests with a unique location, for which they decide to get married at a brewery or cidery. For craft beer fans, nothing beats a brewery wedding's cool factor! The soft natural light and the industrial setting combine to create a stunning reception area. A more versatile color palette, such as navy and gold, or teal and orange will go a long way in striking a balance between the right amount of masculinity and femininity, as breweries are traditionally seen as a place with a more masculine quotient.  For their weddings and receptions, an increasing number of couples are opting for unique locations. This is because modern events are less bound by tradition and more and more couples are opting to ditch age-old wedding traditions and are going for something that celebrates them as a couple!

Building a DIY wedding beer bar 

Your wedding bar is a one-stop-shop for most of your guests, so you are going to need to make it efficient and fun, and perhaps even creative to engage even the most hesitant. You will want to serve refreshments that are not only up to par but are also easy on the eye. If you have decided on a DIY wedding bar, then you are in luck. And if you are open to the idea of a DIY beer bar, then it is even more amazing as there are so many options for serving up this drink. There are so many creative ways to keep your guests hydrated, fed, and entertained at your wedding DIY style. When building a wedding bar menu, you will first want to determine what types of beverages will be served. For instance, you could try a self-serve bar with free-flowing beer on tap. Or you could also collect a few kegs. Serving up beer on tap, wine on tap, or cocktails on tap will require different draft equipment. What can be more loved than free-flowing, serving themselves a beer at a wedding? Your guests will enjoy serving themselves. If you are a homebrewer, an occasion like a wedding is the perfect time to show off your skills and passion with family and friends. You can easily serve up your latest recipes in a corny keg to guests. The bottles will be all gone before you know it, so be sure to stock sufficient for the day. 

Getting crafty with the serving container

Match the way you present beer at your reception to your wedding style or theme, and present this amazing drink from whiskey barrels and canoes to more traditional vintage bar carts. For instance, tubs aren't just for baths as they can also be used to store and present your beer during your wedding reception. Whether you go for the full-size version or elevate a miniature version, the "beers in a tub" look will add rustic charm to the cocktail bar area. If a tub isn't just your style then why not a canoe? For a unique look, get creative with your beer container and serve some cold ones in a canoe. Put ice in it to keep them cool and plants in it to keep it green and foresty, and you have got yourself a unique wedding bar area. Troughs are also great for serving this wonderful summer drink at a wedding. Also, serving beer in a trough pays homage to the agricultural origins of the beverage. With a sleek silver metal option and floral arrangements to accent it, it will have a more elegant feel.

Beer taps 

There are so many creative ways to present beer at a wedding that can match your style and personality! For instance, it's impossible to beat the taste of beer straight from the tap. If you and your partner are both beer connoisseurs, there's no better beer wedding idea than a full-fledged tap bar. It perfectly evokes the magic of a brewery! This beer serving idea has some serious Southwestern vibes that can also be accented with wooden panels and marquee lights.

Dress up the beer bottles

You can also dress up your beer wedding idea in old-fashioned paper bags with vintage design and lettering to give it a new look! Order the bags with your and your spouse's names as well as the wedding date for a more customized feel. To add bucolic vibes to cocktail hour, tie a string around the neck for a ruffled effect, and place them on wood platters adorned with wild greenery.

Beer flights and shots

Beer flights are always a fun way for your guests to sample different brews if you and your soon-to-be-wed love want to elevate your beer presentation style a bit. Have waiters pass out beer flights during cocktail hour or deliver them to tables during receptions to take your beer wedding ideas to the next level. Allowing guests to sample a wide assortment of beer at the cocktail hour will ensure that everyone gets a drink they enjoy and can act as an icebreaker among strangers as they go on to compare the various tastes and flavors. In short, it can be a great conversation starter for guests who don't know each other at the table! You can also opt to offer chilled beer glasses to guests or have servers place them on the table as a welcome drink when they arrive. We also can't forget shots! If you thought shots were just for liquor, think again. Mini brews are both refined and cute. Pair them with sliders during cocktail hour for some fun.

Creative coolers 

Set up a few beer cooler stations throughout your reception venue if beer on tap isn't an option. Troughs, barrels, galvanized buckets, wheelbarrows, wagons, and even canoes can be used to make beer coolers. 

Beer accented wedding decor 

Use amber or green-colored beer bottles, growlettes, or growlers as vessels for floral centerpieces or table numbers, attach bottle caps to place cards, or name tables after your favorite local breweries or beer types to decorate your reception. Consider including wheat or hops in your wedding flowers and groomsmen boutonnieres. Using wheat and hops to decorate beer bottle centerpieces adds a festive touch, especially if your reception is held at a brewery. Table numbers can be made out of beer bottles or you can even label tables with your favorite beers or breweries. You can also save up your empty beer bottles for a while and DIY them into your wedding centerpieces. It’s a simple, easy, and cost-effective way to tie in the beer wedding theme. 

Beer themed grooms cake

The groom's cake is an excellent way to include your favorite brew in the wedding celebrations. Consider a beer-friendly design or flavors inspired by beer, like chocolate Guinness stout. Make your beer-themed groom’s cake display even more personal by including the groom's favorite brews.

Looking for brewery wedding reception inspiration?
