K.I.S.S.: Drink Area Inspirations

I'm super behind on blogging this month, but when my cousin mentioned that she was looking for a Save the Date for her upcoming nuptials, I just couldn't resist searching the archives of some of my favorite wedding blogs . Though I quickly found exactly what I was looking for, I couldn't help digging through the DIY archives and luckily I turned up a few jewels.

I LOVE the DIY Coaster favors that I found on my visit to Style Me Pretty, and thought that instead of wrapping them up as favors, why not use them to add a little flavor to your soiree. Pair them with matching DIY stirrer tags (Project Wedding), and you've got a drink area that  reflects the style of your party. Some hardcore DIYers (read BRIDES) have even taken to printing their own custom cocktail napkins via Gocco machines.

Want a bit more WOW! try a Dabney Lee ice bucket made to order.

 Yes they are super cute BUT if you can't swallow paying $60 for an ice bucket... no worries. Grab a cheap ice bucket, like the jumbo one pictured below from The Container Store, and use contact paper to create your own custom sticker for your bucket.

Now all you need is your signature drink... CHEERS!
