drinks that are sure to be a hit with your guests. Read on for pro tips and

with engraved coconuts for Indian weddings from Mr. Coconut!
7 Wedding Beverage Ideas – Pro Tips from Mr Coconut CEO Shivam Agarwal
1). Avoid Sugary and Carbonated Beverages – Go for Natural Beverages like Coconut Water
While sodas and sugary juices
may seem tempting, Shivam recommends avoiding these types of drinks at your
wedding. The high sugar content can leave guests feeling sluggish and crash
later in the celebration.
"Stick to still water,
fresh juices, coconut water, iced tea, lemonade, and mocktails," suggests
Shivam. "These provide hydration without an energy rollercoaster."
Coconut water is always a safe
and crowd-pleasing option. Engrave coconuts with the couple's names or wedding
hashtag and place them around the venue instead of bottled water. This adds a
personalized touch!
For juice, stick to
fresh-squeezed or 100% juices over juice cocktails heavy on added sugars.
Citrus, berry, pineapple, watermelon, and coconut water make refreshing,
antioxidant-rich choices.
2). Gift Your Guests Healthy Drink with Engrave Coconut in Haldi Ceremony
The Haldi ceremony marks the
beginning of wedding celebrations in Indian culture. Mr. Coconut CEO recommends
kicking off the festivities by gift engraving coconuts for your guests with the
couple's names or wedding date.
"Coconut water is
nature’s Gatorade, hydrating guests after dancing and re-energizing them for
upcoming events," says Shivam.
He suggests setting up a highly
customizable coconut water stall, Cococart by Mr. Coconut. This will let guests
grab a refreshingly healthy personalized coconut anytime.
3). Celebrate with Personalized Coconut in Mehendi Ceremony
The Mehendi ceremony is full
of music, dance, and ornate henna designs. Keep your guests refreshed
throughout the revelry by providing customized coconuts engraved with your
names or wedding hashtag.
"The electrolytes and
minerals in coconut water replenish the body after a long day of celebrations,"
Shivam explains. Place them around the venue or have servers pass them out to
rehydrate your guests in style.
4). Refresh your Guests with Emboss Coconut in Sangeet Ceremony
The Sangeet ceremony
celebrates the union of families through song and dance. With nonstop
performances and celebrations, guests work up quite a thirst!
Shivam suggests keeping emboss
coconuts with your wedding logo or hashtag. The natural nutrients attract
guests to pick them up and drink so that they stay energized to dance the night
away.
"Hydration is key for
maintaining stamina and avoiding fatigue," he says. Strategically place
the coconuts so guests can grab one between dances.
5). Add a Personal Touch to Weddings with Customized Coconuts
In addition to engraved and peeled
coconuts, Shivam reveals other unique ways to customize coconuts and add
personal flair to your wedding:
·
Monogram
coconuts with your initials or family crest
·
Portrait
coconuts printed with photos of the couple
·
Hashtag coconuts

·
Logo
coconuts featuring your wedding logo design
·
Peeled
coconuts served in the shell for natural bowls
"Custom coconuts build
meaningful memories and become cherished keepsakes for guests," says
Shivam. Display some engraved coconuts as decor then let guests take them home.
6). Give a Unique Welcome with Peeled Coconuts in Baraat Swagat
Make a refreshing first
impression by greeting guests with shaved coconuts at your Baraat Swagat
entrance.
"Peeled coconuts make the
perfect natural, eco-friendly drink while providing a boost of nutrients,"
explains Shivam.
Serve these custom coconuts full
of fresh & tender coconut water. Top it off with fresh fruit or an orchid
for a gorgeous presentation. Your welcome coconuts will kickstart the party on
a unique and healthy note!
7). Celebrate Innovatively with Monogram Coconut in Bachelor Party
Bachelor parties call for
imaginative details that wow the guests of honor. Shivam suggests surprising
bachelors and bachelorettes with monogram coconuts bearing their initials.
"Monogram coconuts
personalized with the bride or groom's initials make fun, innovative bachelor
party favors," he says.
Make it extra special by
filling coconuts with chilled coconut water drink to toast the guest of honor.
They'll love sipping mocktails from their own monogrammed coconut!
Conclusion
Planning wedding beverages
that are both refreshing and innovative may seem daunting at first. But
innovative brands like Mr. Coconut make it easy to add personalized flair and
