Champagne-Inspired Wedding Ideas

Carry a clutch of pale garden roses, orchids, gomphrena, Champagne grapes, and flowing passion vine (it’s less brittle than grapevine but looks similar) down the aisle. At the reception, display it in an ice bucket in lieu of a vase.

A Grand Entrance

Let guests know they’re walking into a good time by filling the foyer of your reception space with balloons reminiscent of the fizz in sparkling vino. Ask your photographer to hang out in the wings and capture everyone’s arrival on film.



















A Refreshing Tablescape

Elegant and indulgent, these Champagne towers only look expensive.

Let’s face it, even grilled cheese tastes ah-may-zing when paired with Champagne. But certain culinary flavors really play up the wine’s crispness, so consider working one of these delicacies into your menu. For example, celery root custard, served in repurposed caviar jars topped with our labels, is crowned with -- what else? -- caviar (try tasty and affordable American sturgeon).


Another Option

Raw oysters with migonette gelee, made with both Champagne and champagne vinegar, are no less indulgent.


Cheesy Deliciousness

Blue cheese gougeres have a hint of bubbly in the batter.


Decadent Dessert

Tempt taste buds toward the end of the night with our Citrus Fizz, a mix of Champagne and fruit. To make it, scoop the flesh from part of an orange, leaving behind a bowl-shaped peel. Candy it, and then fill with citrus segments and top with sparkling wine.

Festive Favors

While you could have everyone spray you with Champers as you make your way up the aisle as newlyweds, that might get messy -- and a little too World Series locker room. Instead, invite friends to uncork Champagne-confetti cannons and shower the air with paper as you pass by. Leave one between each ceremony seat



Take-Home Treats

Send each couple home with a customized goody box bearing a split for two, flutes, and          Champagne-flavored candies.

Crisp Cocktails

Make no mistake, this is not your mom’s mimosa. Or your nonna’s Bellini. These four signature drinks highlight sparkling wine’s versatility, whether it’s a citrus and Thai-chile sparkler, brandied cherry rose, a tarragon-Prosecco cocktail mildly flavored with licorice, or Champagne-Apple Punch.

Thai Chil Sparkler: 

2 tablespoons sugar

1/2 Thai chile, diced

1 fresh pineapple (about 32 ounces)

2 oranges, peeled, white pith remaining

1/2 grapefruit, peeled, white pith remaining

2 limes, peeled, white pith remaining

1 ounce yuzu juice, fresh or frozen

3 bottles (750 ml) Champagne

Brandied Cherry Rose: 

7 1/2 ounces brandied cherry liquid

3 3/4 ounces cherry brandy

3 bottles (750 ml) rose Champagne

45 brandied cherries

Tarragon-Prosecco:

For The Tarragon Syrup

1 cup sugar

4 ounces fresh tarragon, stems removed (6 cups leaves)

For The Cocktail

7 1/2 ounces vodka

3 bottles (750 ml) Prosecco

Tarragon sprigs for garnish

Champagne-Apple Punch

1/4 cup sugar

1 bottle (750 ml) dry Champagne

2 cups apple cider

1/2 teaspoon Angostura bitters

1 Granny Smith apple, for garnish

An Ebullient Bar

To designate party central, hang candlelit glass globes as an ode to the lively climb of Champagne bubbles. It’s easy -- just suspend them from the ceiling with thumbtacks and clear thread.

For grown-ups only, our Champagne gelatin, paired with fresh whipped cream, will delight
 the young at heart and sophisticated of palate. (Use rose Champagne for a pink hue.)
