Sparkle and Toast Your Way into the New Year!

We’ve had a fantastic year and want to thank all of our couples for a fabulous 2016. It’s time to break out the sparklers and bubbly! We’ve picked some of our favorite celebratory moments to help inspire the festivities for your next big occasion — whether that’s your engagement, your bachelorette party, or the big day itself.

There are so many ways to serve champagne at your wedding. Miniature champagne bottles serve well as individual guest favors (plus they are a gorgeous detail that we love for table decor), or simply to raise a glass during the toasts at your reception.

You don’t have to save the bubbly for your wedding day. Your engagement session is also the perfect time to celebrate by opening a bottle and cozying up on a picnic blanket.

Miniature champagne bottles also make a cute morning-of gift for you and your girls -- plus they can help to calm your pre-wedding jitters!

We love post-reception sparkler exits! They are simply gorgeous. There are a few simple mistakes to avoid when planning your grand exit. Make sure to use the longer sparklers so they last the whole way through. As a plus, they’re also farther away from your guests, which will lower the risk of anyone (or your photographer!) getting too close to the flame.

For the best results, you'll want to plan your sparkler send-off in a location with some lighting available already. The effect will stay the same and ensure that both you are your guests are easily visible in your late night photos. Make sure to tell your wedding photographer what you’re planning ahead of time so they can set up the best equipment. Then, it’s sparkles away!

A personally engraved champagne bottle can add a beautiful touch to your big day. Not only do you get to share it with your loved one after you say I do, but it makes for a fantastic keepsake.

We’re thankful to have shared so many unforgettable moments with our couples over the last twelve months. Thanks again for a fantastic 2016 — we wish you all the best in the New Year and can’t wait to see what 2017 brings!
