In a bid to cut costs and create a more personal affair, more and more couples are opting for DIY drinks bars. Elliot Allison of Hawkes, London's first urban cidery, says: "More and more couples are opting to stock their own wedding bars, no doubt in a bid to save money where possible as the cost-of-living soars. And whilst stocking a bar isn't rocket science, it does take more thought than simply heading to your nearest cash & carry to buy a random mix of wine, beer and spirits.

Expert tips for elevating your drinks offering
From cocktail stations to party favours, David Cooper from glassware company Forever Crystal shares his top tips on how to get creative with your drinks on the big day. Here are four inspiration ideas for your wedding drinks and toast with something special when you say, 'I do'! Signature cocktails: While you might want to give your guests an open bar, hiring bar staff and footing the bill can end up being an expensive gesture. One way to sidestep this added cost while still providing some free refreshment is to make your own batch of signature cocktails. Choose two mixed drinks or cocktails that you know your guests love and stock up on plenty of ingredients before the big day. For a spring or summer wedding, mixed drinks like Pimm's and lemonade or gin and elderflower tonic are great options, especially as you can provide bowls of fruit and mint leaves to use as a garnish.
