When you want to celebrate, what is one of the first things you think of having? It is wine, right?

But do you know that now, wine is not only served during the actual event? Nowadays, it has also become a popular option for wedding favors.
Choosing Wine Wedding Favors
Some people may think that wine is an expensive wedding favor. But if you consider the fact that you would be serving wine to accompany the meal, in the end it would be more affordable because the wine can be consumed during the event and then the bottle can be taken home as the souvenir. Another option for you to save money would be to choose wine mini bottles to give away as wedding favors. Guests would certainly adore these cute mini bottles.
When buying wine wedding favors, one of the first things you have to consider is the type of meal you are going to serve during the event. This should complement your choice of wine. White wine go well with fish and light dishes while red wine is perfect for hearty meals and meat-based dishes.
The season should also be taken into account. White wine is ideal for warm seasons while red wine is suitable for cold months. Also, you have to give special consideration to guests attending the wedding. For those who are non-drinkers or for children, give mini bottles of sparkling grape juice or apple cider. You can also give non-alcoholic beverage giveaways for people whose religion or culture opposes alcohol drinking.
