Toasting the Bride and Groom

What better way to celebrate the vows you've just taken than to toast your new married status with your guests. If you plan to do a champagne toast, consider presenting the champagne in a way that will awe your guests. I love the champagne tower below; it provides a dramatic focal point for your space. (You will want to use coupe champagne glasses--no flutes-- if you want to incorporate a tower.)

If you are able to provide your own champagne at your reception, head to your local grocery store on New Year's Eve, as they have the year's best prices on champagne that day. Not sure how much to buy? Plan on 6 toasts per standard size bottle (750ml). Just make sure you store the champagne on it's side if your wedding is a few (or many) months out.



Happy New Year!
