For couples that are wine connoisseurs, a wine theme wedding might just be the perfect wedding theme. Wine themed weddings are very elegant and offer many different options to create the perfect day couples dream about.
Colors
The colors for a wine theme wedding often include burgundy, deep purple, or off-white, which compliment the colors of typical red and white wines. Invitations can feature a wine glass, a cluster of grapes, or a grapevine to give guests a hint of the brides chosen colors and wedding theme. Bridesmaid's dresses, centerpieces, floral arrangements, tablecloths, napkins, and wedding favors can all incorporate these popular colors.
Location
When choosing a location for a wine theme wedding, many couples choose to reserve a winery. A winery is a perfect choice because wineries offer fantastic views and timeless beauty. An indoor wedding can also take place at a winery, if the winery has a large tasting room to accommodate guests.
Flowers
The wedding flowers should be beautiful, yet not overwhelming. Bouquets of deep red or luscious cream roses are beautiful, elegant, and will enhance a wine theme wedding. Some brides choose to use long stemmed calla lilies in clear vases to create beautiful centerpieces.
Wine Tasting
Many couples choose to offer wine tasting during the cocktail hour. For formal wine theme weddings, servers dressed in tuxedos can serve a few select wines while a string quartet plays in the background. This will add an elegant touch to any wine theme wedding.
Menu
The menu for a wine theme wedding is often chosen to compliment the wine. Red meats or Italian marinara dishes work well with red wines. Seafood and salad is usually paired with Rosé, and white meats and seafood compliment white wines. Some couples choose to offer their guests a variety of wines and dishes. If the couple is not serving a dinner, wines are selected to compliment the hors d'oeuvres or a dessert wine for the wedding cake.
