Destination weddings are the hottest ticket in town. Wherever you head to, one of the most interesting elements of the wedding will undoubtedly be the local food and drink scene. To make matters exciting for your guests, there are ways to incorporate local spirits and liquors in menu.
Feni is an indulgent and potent creamy liquor made from fermenting cashew nuts and is a clear favourite in Goa. The drink is available only in this region so if you decide to host a beach wedding on Goan shores then you have to definitely make space for the fruity feni.
If you head over to the Scottish moors for a very cosy yet ostentatious wedding, you cannot go wrong with a local brand of scotch whisky circulated at your reception dinner. This Scottish experience will be augmented by a local flavour of the peaty, smoky notes of a Scotch whisky dancing on their taste buds.
Produced in the dunes of Rajasthan, Godawan is a dramatically intense whisky carrying a very smooth and luxurious finish, curated in casks infused with many Indian botanicals. It is a luxe drink meant for an equally indulgent occasion.
The Greek archipelagos might just be the perfect space to host a sophisticated wedding with an elegant finish. Here, you can jazz up your wedding venue in themes of blue and azure that resemble the Grecian waters and pair this destination with the milky anise-flavoured aperitif ouzo.
When you host a tiki themed wedding in the Caribbean islands, you are in for a night of laidback revelry that is quite relaxed but a lot of fun. You have to have local blackstrap rum for its highly potent taste and a slightly nuanced flavour.
