Midnight on November 18th marks the long-awaited premier of The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part I. For those of you who haven’t guessed, I have a bit of a vampire fetish. I will admit that I watch True Blood and The Vampire Diaries. I even loved that canceled series Moonlight. And, yes, I really love Twilight. I’ve read all the books multiple times (that isn’t saying much as they are an easy read) and went to the midnight showing of the original Twilight movie three years ago. Although, I am too embarrassed to admit how many times I have seen that movie. The romance of Edward and Bella is timeless, and at times, co-dependent.
The premier of Breaking Dawn is a great opportunity to gather a group of friends and engage in some exciting pre-movie festivities. Celebrate the wedding of Edward and Bella, another great party thrown by Alice at the Cullen house. Experience the romance of Brazil on Edward and Bella’s honeymoon. Hold your breath in bated anticipation for the birth of the vampire-human hybrid baby Reneesme. Remember the crushing loss of the demise of your first love as Jacob mourns the loss of Bella. Anticipate the eventual arrival of Volturi.
In honor of Twilight, vampires and the wedding, here are our top five drinks for your Breaking Dawn party:
-
Shrinking Violet Champagne Cocktail – A beautiful, moody drink that is the perfect combination of Twilight and weddings.
-
Midnight Cocktail – No better way to make a toast in honor of the Cullen wedding than with champagne, midnight and sparkles!
-
Sidecar – This elegant, classic drink is almost as ancient as Edward and just as good-looking.
-
Caipirinha – Keep the wedding bliss going with Brazil’s national drink used to celebrate honeymoons.
-
Vampire’s Punch – Punch is a great idea at any party including weddings and this one is just bloody awesome!
