Most of us crave a cozy warm drink in the winter, so why not include this pastime favorite in your Cocktail Hour or Reception? Hot apple cider, old-fashioned hot cocoa, and the perfect cup of coffee are three of the most popular fall drinks and can introduce your guests to the flavors you and your spouse-to-be love.

Wedding favors are another creative way to do this! Mini burlap sacks or glass mason jars filled with your favorite coffee beans look great dressed up with ribbon or twine. You can even add a personal thank you note to your guests or include their seat and table number. If you like, supplement the coffee for another hot beverage such as cocoa.

What's so great about this new trend is the ability to personalize it and make each seasonal hot drink your own creation.
