What do you think about...(alcohol related!)

loobylou1979, 21 April, 2010 at 20:46 Posted on Planning 0 11

....having Martini Asti as the first and toasting drink?

I love the stuff but never had at weddings before and not sure if it would be regarded as tacky? ?

TIA

    There's no reason why not. It's another form of fizz ?

    Personally, I'm not keen on Martini Asti - too sweet for me. But then some people don't like champagne so you can't always win!

    I don't think it's tacky at all....afterall it's your day, so have what you want!

    I think we will have Asti tbh as a Champagne Toast is going to cost a fair bit of money that could be spent on other things like the favours.

    Yep I agree, you should have whatever you like! For me personally Asti is too sweet but i'm a dry white wine drinking so we will be going for something like cava, prosecco or champagne dependant on budget.

    I'll send you an invite Natty ;-)

    Thanks ladies, our white wine is a sauvignon blanc (quite dry) so maybe it will be good to cater for a mix of tastes by providing a little extra Asti.

    I prefer Asti to be honest! and will be asking for it for my toast.

    Go for it.

    I say go for it. It's your wedding. Too sweet for me though so we're buying prosecco as I don't really like champagne either. x

    We had sparkling wine for the toast rather than Champagne. Don't think it matters at all.

    I don't like it, I'm afraid. It's much more sticky than Champagne, prosecco or cava and, aside from the fact it makes me gag, I'd be paranoid that there'd be swarms of wasps chasing my guests around!
