Simple Tips For Buying Wine For A Wedding
Wedding day wine is often an afterthought, creating unnecessary stress and an opportunity for hurried or even bad decisions. At A Bottled Affair, we want it to be easier. Here are a few simple tips to help you choose which wines to serve at your wedding with ease, confidence and style …
First, take a moment to consider the details of your big day before choosing your wedding day wines. Keep in mind the time of day as well as the season and setting of your wedding. While you and your fiancé may love great big Malbecs and Cabs at home in front of the fire, either of these varietals would feel quite heavy on a warm summer evening, particularly where dancing and other festivities are involved. (A blended wine, such as a French Cotes du Rhone, is one of our go-to red wine choices for weddings.) Also be sure to consider the food that will be served. While most of your guests may typically lean toward red wines (as a majority of Americans do), lighter foods, such as that typically served at a brunch or mid-day reception, will benefit greatly from white wine. You’re guests will truly appreciate the change from the ordinary! In reviewing these and similar questions, you’re guaranteed to find your way to the best wines for your wedding day.
And while it’s a hard job, someone needs to sample and taste several different wines to find the very best wines to serve at your wedding. It might as well be you! Beyond being a nice change of pace from the typical rigors of wedding planning, tasting a selection of wines before you purchase will undoubtedly lead you to a more informed decision. At the very least, you’ll make some fun new discoveries. At the very best, you’ll uncover some real bargains! For the brides and grooms we work with at A Bottled Affair, we offer wine-themed bridal showers and couples showers at our Denver wine venue, as well as nice discounts and complimentary consultation on wedding day wine sample packages. Don’t be afraid to ask your favorite wine shop if they might offer the same!
