Your wedding day is a momentous occasion, and you want every detail to be perfect - we understand this, we've been there too! One way to add a personal and memorable touch to your wedding is by using custom wine bottles as wedding favours. In this blog, we've explored the enchanting world of custom wine bottles and how they can make your big day even more special.

What are some key reasons to choose custom wine bottles for your bonbonneries?

• Personalisation; have your names or a message that is truly personal
• Memorable Keepsakes; something your guests can take home to remember the occasion
• Elegance and Sophistication; avoids clutter and adds to your theme
• Versatile; can be a budget friendly or luxurious gift
• Conversation Starters; good for breaking ice when guests take their seat
• Perfect Pairing With Meals; a fun way to make a memorable meal

How do you make the best custom wine to suit you?

First off, have a look over the benefits we've listed above and see which stands out to you the most, this should be what you concentrate on. If you have decided what you are aiming for, you have a starting point for creating your wines - are you a wine lover looking for something that is truly personal? If so you want to choose a wine style you love, with a carefully designed label. Or perhaps you love the idea but you want a budget friendly gift? Perhaps you can focus on your amazing label design, choose a more budget-friendly wine style and order early - since last minute orders are likely to increase your costs.



Here's a few tips based on our experience with custom wine bottles:

1. Label design

There are so many ways to create a great label design that is unique and personalised to suit you and your wedding, and an awesome label concept generally doesn't increase cost, so it's a great way to really level-up your wedding wine without breaking the bank. Here are a few ideas of how you can make a start on your label design:

a. Match your invites or wedding themes

If you've already put the time and effort into creating colour schemes or invite designs that you love, these can be used to form the basis of your label design. Whether it's something luxurious, fun, country rustic or any theme that describes your wedding, your wedding wines can stay on-brand - which not only look great, they'll also help prompt your guests' memories of the night when they open their keepsakes down the track.

b. Use a photo

Do you have a photo that shows off what you and your partner are all about? This could be a great focal point for the front of the label - whether it's a photo of the two of you, a scene that reflects your relationship, or your puppy, a photo is super personalised and will serve as a great conversation starter and keepsake.

c. Something fun

Do you want to put a smile on your guests faces? There are many ways to create fun labels, whether it's as simple as a joke, his and hers styling, or a request of when or how to drink the wine  e.g. "Open in 1 years time to celebrate our anniversary with us" or "Open in case of emergency" are some fun ideas we've used for wedding gifts. If you're a fun-loving couple you can add some personality without having to compromise on the visual aspects.



2. A Perfect Pairing

For a foodie or wine lover, personalised wine gifts are about more than just looks. If you've selected a perfect wedding menu, we can help choose a wine to match - the advantage of choosing boutique wine is that your guests' enjoyment won't just come from seeing your amazing wine bottle, it will continue when they open their carefully selected wine and enjoy it.

3. Sizing

There is a bit of a range of sizes for custom wine bottles, depending on what best suits your needs. The cutest and smallest option is the "single serve" 187mL picollo wine bottle, then the 375mL "half bottle" bottle, the 750mL "standard bottle" and finally the 1500mL "Magnum". We are happy to provide any of these sizes. Naturally the price increases with size, but bigger is not always better e.g. some single serve bottles may work nicely to match food courses or a half bottle might be a good compromise of having a couple of glasses of wine, while fitting nicely into a carry bag without being too weighty.

4. Need some help?

We really enjoy putting together label designs and would be glad to help come up with something for you. Whether it's to tweak one of your designs, provide some templates to have a look at or come up with a unique design for your label, it's all good fun for us and we're sure you'll be happy with the result.
