Sparkling Sangria – a champagne-fuelled twist on the Spanish classic.
Cuervo Especial Oasis – right up the alley of any brave tequila connoisseurs, and just a little bit exotic.
Pomegranate Martini – for the sophisticate in us all.
CaipirÃssima – a cool lime cocktail that screams sunset by the beach.

Say what you will about Sean Parker, he sure knows how to throw a wedding. The medieval fairytale themed nuptials of Parker and Alexandra Lenas in the Californian wilderness will be inspiring brides for years to come. We’re completely in awe of the silver screen-worthy setting. We’ll just forget about the fact that it cost upwards of $5 million and add it to our dream wedding folder.
