More and more bridal couples are choosing a wine theme for their wedding reception. Even if you can't have your wedding in the wine country, you can have a wine themed wedding enhanced by wine wedding favors. There are numerous wine wedding favor ideas including: custom labeled wine, imprinted wine glasses, and wedding wine stoppers just to name a few.
You can personalize wine labels to create a custom labeled wine to use as wedding favors or to give as gifts to attendants, family and out of town guests. You can personalize the labels with your wedding date and names as well as a personal message. You can even add a picture to give it an extra personal touch. Depending upon your budget and needs, you can get wines in full bottles or half bottles. At some wineries you can participate in the wine making process and bottle your wine with the help of friends and family. If your reception venue allows it, you can even serve your private label wine at your reception.
Another option for a wine wedding favor is a personalized wine glass or Champagne flute. You can get glasses or flutes etched or imprinted with your names and wedding date to commemorate your special day. Your text can be enhanced with several wedding style designs like hearts, doves, and wedding rings. To decorate the glasses use ribbon that matches your wedding colors and tie a bow on the stem of each glass.
Wedding wine stoppers have become more popular and now there are more and more options to choose from. Most of these stoppers are made from chrome with a rubber seal to help preserve the wine. You can choose traditional wedding theme wine stoppers with designs like hearts or a bride and groom or you can tailor it to the season of your wedding. There are wedding wine stoppers with fall leaves and snowflakes, for example, if you are having an autumn or winter wedding.
There are also many wine stoppers that can go with a specific theme, like beach ball or sea shell wine stoppers for an ocean front wedding. There also fairy tale style toppers. Most wedding wine stoppers come gift boxed and in many cases you can have tags printed that commemorate your wedding date. Also available are sets that come with both a wine stopper and a corkscrew.
Wine charms are another wine themed item that makes for an inexpensive wedding favor. There are several wedding related wine charm sets available which usually come packaged in a set of four charms. If you want a more personalized option there are wine charms that can be customized with your name and wedding date.
Some other items that are used as wine related wedding favors are sets of coasters with a wine design and wine scented gel candles. The gel candles usually come in different wine scents like Merlot or Chardonnay and come in a petite wine glass.
Wine wedding favors are an easy and inexpensive way to enhance a wine themed wedding. Furthermore, these are wedding favors that most guests will enjoy and use which will remind them of your special day.
How? If you don't drink or have a lot of guests that don't drink doesn't that preclude you from using wine wedding favors? Not at all. Of course, it might limit you from giving a bottle of wine to each of your guests, but other than that... well, it's not a problem in most situations. That's because beautiful yet functional items such as bottle stoppers and glass charms are appreciated by the wine enthusiast and teetotaler alike.
Serve Non-alcoholic Cider to Your Non Drinking Guests
There are a lot of reasons that people choose not to drink and for that reason alone every wedding celebration should be prepared with a non-alcoholic alternative that is a step above a basic carbonated soft drink. Choosing a fine sparkling cider, of which there are many, is a great alternative to let all of your guests know that you appreciate them and their choices. If you take this thoughtful step, the next logical step is to choose a wine wedding favor like a decorative charm or bottle stopper that they can use on their own wine flutes to remember you and your wedding day.
Bottle Stoppers Look Great on Other Bottles as Well
My family doesn't drink, but we love the beauty and decorative touch of a decorative bottle stopper, like the ones you find among the wine wedding favors, sitting atop a bottle of kosher sparkling grape juice or cranberry juice when we sit down to a celebratory meal. It adds a nice finishing touch to the meal. Imagine how much more it would mean if someone we cared enough about to set aside an entire afternoon (or even an entire day) to celebrate their new life as a married couple bought that bottle stopper favor for us to reminding us of that wonderful day!
Think about it. Imagine you had a beach wedding and your favors were lighthouse or sea shell wine charms. We would think of your wedding every time we used those beautiful charms. Perhaps you were one who chose the daring elegance of a winter wedding and your choice of favors was a bottle stopper graced with an intricate snowflake. Now think of that stopper sitting atop a bottle on our countertop or bar... That's the power of buying wine wedding favors.
