The Perfect Wines for Your Wedding Celebrations
Omg omg omg! You’re engaged! Your partner popped the question, you said yes, and now it’s time to take a million selfies showing off that new bling. Cue the happy tears and the “surprised hand over mouth” face – it’s time to celebrate, start planning your big day, and prepare all of the fun festivities that go along with it!
First thing’s first, you have to pop the next big question to your wedding crew! Many brides like to add a celebratory flare to their bridal party proposals with a little gift for their favorite people – but what should you include in your proposal box? Then, how will you celebrate at your bachelorette party and bridal shower? Well, there’s one thing that we know for sure, you can’t go wrong with wine for a special occasion, especially if it’s an adorable mini bottle of wine! Lucky for you, we happen to know the perfect place to find such wine and how to incorporate it into any fun event.
Take the guesswork out of celebratory beverages for your fun wedding prep, let’s explore everything you need to keep in mind for your bridal party proposals and other wedding wine ideas!
Bridesmaid Proposal Box
Nobody knows your bridesmaids quite like you do, so prepping the perfect proposal box should be a fun venture. You get to customize this personalized gift as much as you please to show the members of your wedding party just how much they mean to you and why you want them to be a part of your big day. If you find yourself stuck trying to curate the perfect proposal box, no worries! We’ve got a few ideas to help you get started. Here are a few items that you might consider adding to the cutest proposal box ever:
Personal Note
Okay, this one seems obvious, but it’s worth mentioning! Personal, handwritten notes have become somewhat of a lost art, so including this special touch to your proposal boxes will add that bit of sentimental value.
Satin Pajamas or Robe
This unique idea can come into play later for your future bachelorette party! Getting satin pajamas or a robe for your crew will not only be a fun, practical item that they can actually use, but you can also be ~matchy matchy~ for some cute photos when you take that fun bachelorette trip before the wedding.
Mini Bottle Wine
Remember when we mentioned wine as a fun idea to add to your bridesmaid proposal boxes? Good, we thought that you would! Buying several full bottles of wine for your crew can be pricey, so we recommend adding some oomph to that proposal box with a mini bottle of wine from IGT! With its unique, single-serving size, you can rest assured that the mini bottle won’t go to waste once opened. Another perk is that it allows your future bridesmaid to celebrate the proposal in the moment with a perfectly sized glass of wine!
Bachelorette Party Ideas
Planning a bachelorette party is a lot of fun – but it can also be hard work for your maid of honor! You have to get the decorations just right, plan your outfits, pick the perfect city for your night out, and have a list of activities ready to go to keep the party going. Whew, that’s no easy task. However, we have a suggestion for a fun, chill activity that you and your bridal party will enjoy – a virtual or in-person wine tasting!
A wine tasting with In Good Taste allows you and your bridal party to taste a variety of our fun mini bottles while sharing a fun night in on your bachelorette trip! Setting up a tasting is easy – all you have to do is pre-order the wine and schedule the tasting for one of the nights of your trip. Then, voila! You’ve just added a unique activity to your bachelorette party. Our wine tasting hosts can lead your event virtually, in-person, or during a hybrid event.
Bridal Shower Gifts
No list of wine wedding ideas would be complete without incorporating your favorite vino into your bridal shower! Bridal showers are typically enjoyed as a brunch setting, so we suggest serving light-bodied wines with a low ABV (Alcohol By Volume) wine so that you can keep the festivities going for as long as possible! We’re particularly fond of a zesty Sauvignon Blanc or delicate Pinot Grigio for those daytime sips.
Seasonal Sips
Is your wedding theme centered around a certain season or time of year? Customize your wine selections to add an extra, thoughtful touch to your ambiance. Our seasonal collections are perfect for those festivities that are planned in the warmer months. Maybe you’ve got a vibrant autumn wedding or a cheery, bright winter wedding? We think that calls for our Red Red Wine collection to add a little warmth to those celebrations in the cooler months. What about a romantic, Valentine’s Day wedding? To add a touch of romance, you can’t go wrong with some pink rosé or a Dozen Rosés.
We know that you just can’t wait for all of the fun festivities leading up to your wedding day, and we can’t wait to help you celebrate these special moments with the perfect wine for any occasion. That being said, there’s only one thing left to do. We’d like to raise a glass to you, your future, and the planning ahead for your special day and everything that goes along with it. Cheers!
