Wine unity ceremony

View quoted message Yes I am thinking of going to our local winery to get their advice! We aren’t huge fans of the wine capsule as it focuses on fighting on our day of love

View quoted message Yes I have heard of this! We wanted to do the mixing ceremony instead of focusing/ planning on a fight on our wedding date

My fiancé and I plan on doing a wine box cerenufoe our upcoming wedding . We just purchased a wine box from weddingstar.com, and for the ceremony you place your two love notes written to each other in the box with the wine & glasses and lock the box, until we have our first real fight or on an anniversary! No wine mixing included 😊

I'll admit, I've never heard of mixing wine for the unity ceremony. I've heard of the 'wine' capsule that you open after 1 year or a big fight. I'd probably do that so you don't have to worry about complimentary blends (especially since LCBO personnel aren't always knowledgable about tannins, acidity, etc of certain wines). However, you could do 2 wines from the same winery. They know their product best so you can be really informed of the best option.

Becky's idea of LCBO salesperson knowledge will help you better than anything you may not be aware about. Mixing wines may just get too strong or oddly tasted. Matching a white and red can be tricky if done right and based on body. Whites from dry to sweet and reds from light to full body should corporate well to give that perfect taste and flavour (bouquet is the term given).

I have never heard of this? I know a unity candle or sand but not wine? Might just be me but mixing wine to me breaks my heart hahah! I can be a wine snob... Can you pour the same wine together? Not to taint it?

I think a light white wine (Like a Riesling) and a rose would go well together! Does your FH have a wine he likes too?

I would pick wines that compliment each other- you could go to the lcbo and ask if they have any ideas! Kelsie made some good suggestions as well.

I only like white/rose.

you could definitely mix a white and a rose.

i like dry wines. So I’d probably mix either two dry whites or a white and rose.

I agree with Tori, it's only you 2 who will be taking a sip so who cares how it tastes. If it tastes awful then it will be a funny memory that only you guys will share! If you are really concerned, you can always Google it.

We are still debating doing this ceremony - but if we do we will be choosing our fav. wines.

We don't really care how it tastes, if it tastes a little weird that describes us perfectly any way
