Stock the Bar -Theme Ideas
Wine Lovers
If the bride and groom are wine lovers, consider gifts
such as wines bottled during the year of their engagement
or wedding. Also consider gifts of stemware, wine coasters,
wine glass charms. A nice corkscrew/bottle opener is also
a great addition. In addition, decanters are always a beautiful
addition and |
can double as decoration. Other creative ideas include wine
and champagne buckets.

Cocktail Lovers
For martini lovers, suggest specific items such as vodka,
gin and exotic garnishes. Furthermore, martini shakers
and bar tool sets which include jigger, spoons, strainers,
knifes and bottle openers.A margarita theme might include
bottles of tequila, Triple Sec and mixers combined with
festive margarita pitchers and glasses. Don't forget, the
frozen margarita requires a blender, |
which are available for rent at Holiday.

Glassware
Glassware is an important necessity to complete the well-stocked
bar and a great gift for the couple. The amateur bartender
should have at least eight (8) of the following:
• Highball glasses
• Old-fashioned "rocks" glasses
• Tall / Collins glasses
• White wine glasses
• Red wine glasses
• Martini glasses
• Pilsner glasses or beer mugs
• Champagne flutes
