Girls. I was so sure about wine but now I can't decide. I am looking into Bibich wine. It is pricey but it is Croatian so that is a big part of why we wanted it (my culture) and it is bottled so nicely. My dad came up with the idea of a bottle of olive oil. It is 250ml and looks very cute. Also made in croatia.

I voted for the red wine but think white would be just as good. I actually think the wine would get put to use more than the olive oil but then again I don't cook only drink

I think the olive oil is really cute and you can always use olive oil. I know people in italy who have done this also they do a much smaller btl with vinger.

I don't know about the oil. To be honest..if I got oil at a wedding.. i really wouldn't know what to do with it. What about rose wine? I think white is better than red.. but rose is the best overall.. it's the most popular. I used to bartend and also make drinks in a diner... most often if someone wanted wine it was rose. Personally i dont drink wine at all though.

rose would be nice. i just wish it was made in croatia. i want to tie the favor to my culture and i dont think they make rose but i will look into it. thanks for the suggestion.

Oh.. I didn't know you were tying them into you culture. Thats a cute idea. Are you doing personallized labels on them?

we will attach favor tags. all the options are imported from croatia so we are leaving the labels on them but will attach a favor tag with a few words of thanks.

They make it
2007 Bibich Think Pink Shiraz Rosé SKU #1039750
From Croatia, arguably the final frontier in European wine. And a rose, no less, the final frontier, period, for serious wine drinkers. Croatia has certainly been making wine for a while, even while we American wine drinkers stayed pretty much in the dark. This dry pink wine was produced by the Bibich Winery in Skradin. It is 100% syrah, and it shares much in common with other syrah-based pink wines, such as those from Southern France and Australia. Robust, yet bone dry, ideal with foods, from vegetarian dishes to seafood

I work for a wine importer and I know if you contact the importer they will help you find this wine in your area. I know for example the link is from CA which probably means they go through a direct import(cheaper)that is why the price is right. I am not sure if they could ship here or not depending on the laws
www.winesearcher.com
www.xlsimports.com
They are the importers they are actually in Astoria. if you know anyone who owes a rest/liq store they can order it for you
I can find in the beverage media what the wholesale price is if you want?
Good luck

Personally I say wine, and my family would agree, but FH's mom and her boyfriend/whatever are recovering addicts so it would not be appropriate for them. So you may want to think about your guests and if any of them might have issues with alcohol.

Nobody that I know of does but I guess you can never be 100% sure. Although there will be lots of liquor at the wedding anyhow.

I chose red wine but I think any of them would be a great favor idea.
