One of my favorite things about fall is pumpkin-flavored everything (my husband and I just went through an entire box of Wawa Pumpkin Spice K-cups over the weekend... they're that good). If you're a getting married in the fall, consider a signature cocktail that incorporates pumpkin spice! 

Pumpkin Pie Delight

1 ounce aged rum, whiskey, or cognac
1 ounce Disaronno
1 heaping spoonful of pumpkin pie mix
1/2 ounce heavy cream
1 whole egg

Place all ingredients into a mixing glass. Dry shake (shake without ice to 'whip' the ingredients together). Then shake again with ice. Strain into a rocks glass without any ice. Top with freshly-grated cinnamon.

Not a crazy pumpkin fanatic like me? Consider using the other most popular flavor of the season — apple.

Apple Cobbler

2 parts Disaronno
1 part cranberry juice
1 part apple juice
1/4 part fresh lemon juice

In a rocks glass, mix ingredients over ice. Garnish with an apple slice.
