Wedding Wines/Bridal Registry

First of all, Congratulations! We're thinking you may already own many of the household items you will use once you are married. What better experience is there than to enjoy a home-cooked meal and a bottle of wine at the table with your new partner-for-life! If you'd rather build your relationship over dinner than acquire a bunch more stuff, ask your family and friends for the GIFT OF WINE! We can handle your bridal registry in a number of ways:

1) Gift Certificates in any amount
2) Custom Case in specific budget
3) Note special/specific wines you want (based on availability at the time of actual purchase) to suggest to your wedding guests

Feel free to stop in and talk with us about your desires and we will create a gift list tailored to you! Then, when your guests call, stop in or shop online, we'll be ready to fulfill your needs smoothly.
