Aperitif and Open bar for weddings and events

How to impress your guests with aperitif and open bar experiences

One moment can truly make a difference in your wedding day — the Aperitif and the Open bar. It sets the tone from the very start and brings the celebration to a perfect close.

From a welcome cocktail or informal dinner, to a refined rehearsal dinner for guests arriving the day before, and even a farewell party after the wedding — every moment counts.
By choosing an experienced caterer like Glicine, you can turn each of these into lasting, joyful memories.

The toast that sets the mood

After the ceremony, when emotions settle and the celebration begins, the Aperitif is the first convivial moment shared between the couple and their guests. Picture clinking glasses, gourmet finger food served creatively, and live Show cooking stations that turn into mini culinary performances.

A specialized catering service like Glicine knows how to manage this moment with harmony, balancing elegance with warmth, and offering bespoke cocktail lists tailored to every preference. It’s here that a unique energy is created — one that carries through the rest of the day.

The beating heart of the celebration

The Open bar is another crucial part of any wedding, as it signals the official start of the party! It’s much more than a simple beverage station — the bar, both stylish and functional, quickly becomes one of the most popular spots of the evening, where guests gather to chat, dance, and laugh.

Relying on an experienced caterer means having professional bartenders, a customized cocktail and mocktail menu, and a setup that reflects the identity of your event. From classic drinks to the most original mixology creations, each sip tells a story.

Greeting guests in style

It’s not just about the Aperitif and Open bar on the wedding day itself. More and more couples are choosing to extend the experience by welcoming friends and family the evening before. In this case, a welcome cocktail or a casual dinner with an open bar is the perfect opportunity to break the ice, get to know each other better — especially for guests arriving from afar — and slowly ease into the mood of the event.

Once again, Glicine can offer flexible options tailored to the more relaxed tone of the evening, while still adding a touch of elegance and originality to make everyone feel comfortable and engaged.

Farewell party: a final toast

For multi-day celebrations, the day after the wedding is often a time for goodbyes — but also a final opportunity to enjoy the company of loved ones in a more intimate setting. A light lunch or a brunch with cocktails, a bloody mary or mimosa station, and fresh finger foods are the perfect way to say farewell.

Once again, with the support of a quality catering service, everything runs smoothly and beautifully, allowing the couple to enjoy the final act of their celebration with peace and joy.
