Weddings
The wine is the one detail every guest remembers
Nobody talks about the chair covers on the ride home. They talk about the wine — or they don't, which is worse. We've been picking wedding wine for wine lovers since 2009, and the playbook is simple:
- The toast. Real Champagne when the budget says yes — Cava, Cremant, or a serious California sparkler when it says be smart. Your guests get the moment either way.
- The reception pour. One red and one white that 150 different palates all enjoy is a skill. It's our whole job. We start at 60% red, 40% white and tune it to your crowd.
- The welcome bottles. Hand-painted bottles and handwritten notes for the people who matter most. Ask — it's the detail nobody forgets.
- The quantities. Run the calculator below, then a human checks your numbers before anything ships. No panicked Thursday-night store run, no 6 cases left over.
The white-glove part
We sweat the details you don't have time to
You have a hundred decisions to make. The wine should be the one that's simply handled.
On-time venue delivery
Scheduled around your planner, your caterer, and your venue's receiving hours. The wine is the one vendor that shows up early.
Hand-painted bottles & handwritten notes
Welcome gifts, parent thank-yous, head-table magnums. Small touches, done by hand, that read like you planned for months.
Large formats that make the table
A magnum pours two bottles and twice the drama. We'll tell you where big bottles are worth it — and where they're just heavy.
A human checks the math
Every order gets a second set of eyes on quantities, timing, and the red-white split before it ships. Boring, and exactly what you want.
If you're not 100% satisfied, we'll make it right.
The math
How much wine does your event actually need?
The honest math we've used for 16 years: a 750ml bottle pours five glasses, and people average about a glass an hour — faster in hour one, slower after. Plug in your event.
Every event is different. A human checks your numbers before anything ships.

Corporate & private events
The host who knows somebody in the wine business. (You.)
Client dinners, product launches, board retreats, holiday parties, retirement send-offs. The wine sets the tone before anyone says a word — and "whatever the caterer had" is a tone.
- Tell us the occasion and budget per head. We send a shortlist that looks like a month of planning. It took you one email.
- One contact, start to finish. Quantities, timing, delivery to the office or the venue — handled.
- Gifting, too. Client and employee gifts shipped to one address or drop-shipped nationwide — ask about custom labels and engraving.
- Volume pricing on large orders. Ask for a quote. If you're pouring for hundreds, you should not pay retail like it's a Tuesday.

Questions, answered
Event wine, without the guesswork
How much wine do I need for 100 guests?
For a four-hour event where wine is the main pour: 100 guests x 4 hours = 400 glasses. At five glasses per bottle that's 80 bottles — about 7 cases, roughly 60% red and 40% white. Add one bottle of sparkling per 7 guests if there's a toast. The calculator above does this for your exact numbers, and a human double-checks before anything ships. Hosting a seated dinner instead? Our dinner-party wine guide goes deeper on courses and pairings.
What's the best wine to serve at a wedding?
The wines your specific crowd will drink happily — not a trophy bottle for the three guests who'd notice. The reliable frame: a crowd-pleasing red (think smooth, fruit-forward, not a tannin monster), a crisp-but-not-austere white, and sparkling for the toast. Every bottle we'd suggest scored 90+ points or beat wines that did in our tastings. Tell us your menu and budget per head and we'll send the shortlist.
Do you deliver to venues and caterers?
Yes — that's the standard move. We schedule delivery around your venue's receiving hours and your planner's timeline, so the wine is checked in before anyone's asking where it is. Home delivery works too if you'd rather receive it yourself.
How far ahead should I order?
Three to four weeks ahead is comfortable for most events. Custom-label bottles need artwork approved at least three weeks before delivery. Sooner than that? Ask anyway — we'll tell you honestly what's doable.
Can I get custom labels or engraved bottles?
Yes. Your names, your date, your company — on a real, named, 90+ rated wine, not anonymous bulk juice with a pretty sticker. Wedding favors, welcome gifts, corporate gifting, retail programs. Smaller runs are welcome at a premium; large programs get their own treatment. More on how it works: custom-label wine for gifting. Mention it in the quote form and we'll walk you through it.
What about outdoor and summer events?
Heat changes the plan: lean harder on whites, rosé, and sparkling, pick reds that take a light chill (15 minutes in ice water is the pro move), and keep everything out of the sun. Whites and rosé serve best at 55-60F, sparkling colder, on ice. We'll build the list around your setting — patio, beach, boat, backyard.
Is shipping really free?
FREE shipping on 12 or more bottles, mix and match, on in-stock wines. Most events clear that in the first case. Under 12 bottles, standard rates apply at checkout.
