invitations, hair stylist, flowers, photographer, dress, honeymoon, and countless other expenses &#8211; so it\u2019s a good idea for the couple to do their research and determine where and how to save money.\u00a0 Sometimes, it\u2019s not safe to take a less expensive route, for fear of compromising on quantity or quality, and the couple should determine where to cut some costs safely, going over priorities and weighing options.<\/p>\n<p>In previous posts I\u2019ve encouraged couples to think twice about having \u201chouse wines\u201d poured at their wedding &#8211; I say this because oftentimes, house wines aren\u2019t of particularly good quality at many venues, and while some of us may think guests simply won\u2019t notice poor quality, I can safely say that guests do tend to notice when something is in fact good quality.\u00a0 At my sister\u2019s wedding two years ago, she selected good quality Champagne and wines and much to our delight, many guests later commented on just how much they enjoyed her wine selections.\u00a0 I\u2019ve also suggested that perhaps a couple should consider having their Champagne or sparkling wine flowing throughout the reception and not just for the toast.\u00a0 It\u2019s not necessary to have it flowing throughout the event, although it is a nice touch.<\/p>\n<p>So let\u2019s say the couple wants to have good quality wines served at their wedding, but is concerned over the cost of pouring good quality selections.\u00a0 Fortunately, this can be done without spending exorbitant amounts on wine.\u00a0 With proper research, or guidance from the caterer or wine consultant, the couple successfully can select wines of good quality without spending above their budget.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_12278\"

throughout the wedding, it\u2019s not necessary.\u00a0 As long as the couple has a sparkling wine served for the toast, this is\u00a0<\/span>perfectly acceptable.\u00a0 And the couple need not choose a true Champagne, a sparkling wine from the Champagne region of France.\u00a0 Champagne is wonderful for sure, but the couple can opt for a less expensive sparkling wine from a different wine region, and save a lot on this expense.\u00a0 Sparkling wines from California and other parts of the United States come in all different qualities and price ranges, and indeed some are very good quality.\u00a0 Other options are Cava, a sparkling wine from Spain, or Prosecco or other sparkling wines from Italy &#8211; there are many lovely selections of Cava and Prosecco.\u00a0 And if the couple wants to try something a bit different from the norm, perhaps they\u2019d even consider a Sekt &#8211; a sparkling Riesling from Germany or Austria &#8211; light, lovely, crisp, and flavorful.<\/p>\n<p>As for the other wine selections, it\u2019s a good idea to have a white and a red being poured.\u00a0 I still feel it\u2019s smart to think twice about serving house wines, as there\u2019s a good chance they\u00a0won\u2019t be up to the couple\u2019s standards, but it\u2019s possible that the house wines are good quality.\u00a0 If the couple decided they\u2019d like to replace the house wines with other selections, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio, and Riesling are relatively easy to find without spending a large sum of money and still staying with good quality.\u00a0 For Sauvignon Blanc of good quality but less expense, look to selections from New Zealand, particularly the Marlborough region.\u00a0 For Chardonnay, try a California wine.\u00a0 Pinot Grigio and Riesling are fairly easy to find at a reasonable price.\u00a0 While French wines can be quite amazing, it\u2019s not necessary to choose French wine for a wedding, if the couple is concerned about spending above their means.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding reds, I\u2019m generally careful when choosing an inexpensive Cabernet Sauvignon, as Cabernet often commands somewhat higher prices than other reds, and often the same goes for Pinot Noir.\u00a0 Yes, it\u2019s possible to find decent Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon for less, but it\u2019s fairly easy to find good quality Chianti, Merlot, and the very popular Malbec for a lot less than good Cabernet and Pinot.\u00a0 For Chianti we look to Tuscany, for good but often inexpensive Merlot California offers so many options, and for good and fairly inexpensive Malbec we can depend on the Mendoza region of Argentina.<\/p>\n<p>As long as the couple wishes to serve good quality yet reasonably priced wines at their wedding reception, there are always options, and the couple and their guests will undoubtedly be pleased.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<h6 class=\"zemanta-related-title\" style=\"font-size: 1em;\">Related articles<\/h6>\n<ul
