Including cannabis in wedding celebrations is becoming more popular; it’s a great way to help your guests feel more social and connected. However, taking some precautions is essential to ensure that everyone has the best possible experience. At Cannabis Bar Services, we leverage our extensive budtending expertise to help your wedding guests have a great time at your weed wedding in California and beyond.
Fun Ways to Serve Cannabis at Your Wedding
As long as you’ve chosen a cannabis-friendly wedding venue that allows cannabis consumption, you can serve virtually any kind of cannabis product on your special day. Certain types of cannabis products are better suited for events like weddings and receptions, though.
Can You Smoke Weed at a Wedding?
At Cannabis Bar Services, we find that cannabis flower, concentrates, and vapes are usually the best choices for cannabis consumption options at weddings.
Budtenders can adjust the dose of flower and concentrate for each guest. One puff is enough for some guests, while others prefer a joint to themselves. It’s hard to get that level of precision with other consumption methods.
Most importantly, since inhaled cannabis kicks in almost immediately, it’s easy for consumers to judge how they are feeling and how much they want to consume.
Cannabis Cocktails for Weddings
Cannabis-infused beverages are an excellent option for guests who don’t want to smoke or vape at your wedding.
THC drinks typically take effect more quickly than edibles, so guests can pace themselves and consume the appropriate dose. In addition, having CBD mocktails on hand enables participation from those nervous about any intoxicating or psychoactive effects.
Can You Serve Edibles at a Wedding?
While it’s possible to serve edibles and cannabis-infused foods at your wedding, Cannabis Bar Services typically suggests other types of cannabis products. Edibles can take up to a couple of hours to kick in, so they’re not ideal for shorter events. Additionally, because they take so long to take effect, it’s relatively easy for guests to over-consume — especially for inexperienced cannabis consumers.
If you do decide to serve edibles at your wedding, we suggest that you choose low-dose options with five milligrams of THC or less.
With that said, edibles do make great wedding favors. Customized infused cookies or candies are a thoughtful gift to thank your guests for coming.
How a Mobile Budtender Will Help You Have a Fun and Safe Weed Wedding
The best way to ensure all your guests have a good experience at your cannabis wedding is to hire a professional mobile budtender from Cannabis Bar Services. A budtender will ensure that the cannabis you serve at your wedding will help to create a fun, positive, and social atmosphere for all of your guests.
Budtenders Ask for ID Before Serving Guests
First and foremost, budtenders will ensure that everyone consuming cannabis is of age. With a professional budtender, you won’t have to worry about keeping track of underage guests or watching what everyone is doing.
Educate and Guide Guests Through Cannabis Experiences
Before serving any of your guests, Cannabis Bar Services budtenders will ask a few questions to gauge their experience and comfort with various cannabis products. Ensuring that each wedding guest gets the correct dose of cannabinoids using a comfortable and enjoyable delivery method is essential in creating a pleasant experience.
Professional Budtenders Prevent Overconsumption
Just like bartenders can spot patrons who have had too much to drink and won’t continue to serve them, professional budtenders can spot people who have consumed too much cannabis. Though a significant part of a mobile budtender’s job is making sure that people don’t overconsume in the first place, when you host at a cannabis-friendly venue, people may bring their own products or overstate their tolerance.
A professional budtender will not continue to serve someone who has had too much cannabis, and they often can even help those guests ground themselves and return to a more enjoyable experience.
CBD For Weddings
We always advise newlyweds to offer a CBD-rich option or two at their weed wedding. CBD-dominant strains or CBD-infused consumables are perfect for guests who want a non-intoxicating experience — or for members of the wedding party who need to relax amidst all the hustle and bustle of the big day.
CBD products are also a must-have in every budtender’s toolkit to help people who have accidentally overconsumed, as CBD may help balance out the effects of THC.
Provide Exciting Cannabis Wedding Experiences
One of the most fun services that Cannabis Bar Services budtenders provide is novel cannabis pairings and experiences. Recently, we’ve begun offering dab and fruit pairings that highlight complementary flavor profiles. We are also experimenting with other cannabis and food pairings, like small bites of cheeses and meats.
We like to have fresh and dried herbs at the cannabis bar for guests to smell, too. These provide a fun sensory experience and can also help guests enjoy their cannabis experience more fully; smelling lavender can help calm a guest who is feeling stressed, while smelling lemon can help energize a guest who is feeling tired from the festivities.
