Make Every Toast Count on Your Big Day
A wedding is more than just a ceremony—it's a celebration of love, connection, and unforgettable moments. From the pre-ceremony clinks of glasses to the grand finale of desserts, wine plays a central role in setting the tone and delighting your guests.
But with so many wine options available, how do you choose the perfect bottles for your once-in-a-lifetime event?
In this guide, we’ll explore how to select the right wines for every stage of your wedding—while introducing a few standout bottles from our online wine shop that offer elegance, balance, and affordability.
🥂 The Welcome Toast: Let the Celebration Begin
Every great party begins with bubbles. Whether you're hosting a garden wedding, a rooftop soirée, or an elegant ballroom banquet, a good sparkling wine instantly lifts the mood.
We recommend Encontro Special Cuvée Brut 2017, a refined Portuguese sparkling wine that balances citrus notes, toasted brioche, and fine bubbles with crisp acidity. It's festive, stylish, and affordable—perfect for welcome drinks and cheerful toasts.
🍽️ Dinner Wines: Elegant Reds and Whites for Every Dish
As the main course is served, the wine pairing should harmonize with the menu, enhance the flavors, and please a wide range of palates. A classic red-and-white combination is often the safest and most inclusive choice.
For the White:
Casa de Santar Reserva White 2018 – With bright citrus and white floral notes, this Portuguese white wine offers freshness and subtle oak complexity. It complements seafood, grilled chicken, and creamy pastas with finesse.
For the Red:
Cabriz Colheita Selecionada Red 2018 – A silky, medium-bodied red with black fruit, spice, and soft tannins. This versatile wine is ideal for pairing with roast meats, pasta Bolognese, or even vegetarian mushroom dishes.
Both options are crowd-pleasers and affordable enough for larger quantities without compromising on taste.
🍷 After-Dinner Magic: Sweet Wines for Sweet Moments
Don’t overlook the dessert course! A thoughtful dessert wine elevates the final moments of the evening, whether you're serving cake, fruit tarts, or a cheese board.
Graham’s Blend N.12 Ruby Port – Vibrant, youthful, and bursting with ripe berry fruit, this Ruby Port is a showstopper with dark chocolate, tiramisu, or berry desserts.
Moscatel Casa Ermelinda Freitas – Fragrant and floral, with notes of orange blossom and honey. This sweet wine is a beautiful companion to Chinese wedding pastries, almond tarts, or even panna cotta.
Not only do dessert wines create a delicious finale, they also bring a sense of intimacy and celebration to the close of your big day.
💡 Why Portuguese Wines Are Wedding Heroes
Planning a wedding often means balancing quality with budget—and this is where Portuguese wines shine. Portugal offers world-class wines with distinct character, often at more approachable prices than French or Italian equivalents.
From refreshing sparkling wines to robust reds and elegant dessert wines, Portuguese bottles bring variety, charm, and unbeatable value to your wedding wine list.
