Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! Since you're looking for a signature drink with basic ingredients, I have a few fantastic options that are both easy to make and absolutely delightful.

First up is the Best Man. With its simple yet sophisticated blend of Campari, red vermouth, chocolate liqueur, bourbon, and a dash of chocolate bitters, served in a highball glass, this cocktail balances bitterness and sweetness beautifully. Created for signature wedding cocktails by Danielle Tatarin of The Designer Cocktail Company, it has a high rating of 4.7/5, making it a stellar choice for your special day.

If you're open to a unique fruity and herbaceous twist, the Pear-Rosemary Twist can be an excellent selection. With vodka, sugar syrup, tonic water, fresh pears, pear nectar, and a refreshing rosemary garnish, this pitcher-ready cocktail offers a delightful mix of sweet and herbal flavors. It's perfect for sharing and has a rating of 4.4/5.

For something classic with a floral twist, consider the Floral Martini. This concoction uses gin, white vermouth, rose vodka, and slices of cucumber. It embodies elegance and sophistication with its delicate and aromatic flavors, served in a sleek cocktail glass. This one’s rated at 3.81/5, making it a refreshing choice for those who enjoy a garden-inspired essence.

Each of these cocktails is straightforward to prepare and features ingredients that are easy to source. Whichever you choose, it will surely add a special touch to your wedding celebration. Cheers to a wonderful wedding day!
