Wine Tasting - Wine Tours in Italy

As daytime receptions and themed celebrations would represent the new trend in weddings, according to what Susan Southerland says on the Bridal Guide Mar/Apr 2006, wine could be an idea for a theme.

Among the 10 inspirational ideas for an out-of-the-ordinary, trend-setting receptions, that veteran wedding planner Susan Southerland, lists, one is about wine themed party.

Susan Southerland suggests for your wine theme party:

- People are becoming savvier to wine and how it blends with food. Combine a bit of education with your wedding meal and hire a sommelier to work with your catering manager to create a perfect food and wine menu.

- Print a menu for your guests so they remember which wine they enjoyed.

- A great guest favor would be a bottle of wine from one of your courses.
