Well besides invites, favors & placecards what else is there? Centerpieces? Menus? I love the cork candle idea - maybe you can add some fall colored flowers and grapes?? Haha - this is hard!!!

Re: HELPPPPPP!!!! Ideas Needed!!!!!
instead of a wishing well you can ask guest to provide a recipe and bottle of wine to accomany it. You can get custom printed wine glasses. A wine theme plate(grapes etc) and have guests sign it. Centerpieces wine bottles and grapes.... hth thats about all i have
great!!! thanks girls i was really getting stumped... love the wine plate sign in

What about giving her a wine gift basket with a wine basket poem??
Example: There are poems that are attached to each bottle, that the bridesmaids read as they present the gift to the bride.
Wedding Night The night you have dreamed of is finally here The future surrounds you with hope and yet fear You’ve wanted so long to find your perfect mate Sip this wine and toast this perfect date The night is meant for you to share Enjoy each other – a perfect pair!!
First Fight When fights occur and tempers get hot Pour a glass and be thankful for what you’ve got If you always agreed it would certainly be a bore And by asking for Krissy’s hand Bernie is surely in for more!
First Anniversary Been married a year, where did the time go? No longer newlyweds, now you are pros Hope the days found you in good health and good spirit Keep saying I love you – one always needs to hear it! Now toast this first date, it’s certainly not the last And as you build your future don’t ever forget the past!
First Dinner Party Open your home to entertain and eat Catch up with old friends and new ones to meet When the night is over share this bottle of wine But don’t sit down yet – it’s clean up time!!
Christmas Eve A wise man said wine is better than beer And now is the season for lots of holiday cheer So pop the cork and relax a bit, And when the night is through, Kiss goodnight, close your eyes And Santa will be good to you!
First Baby The news that a baby will soon share your life will make you a mother, not only a wife You’ll see it through good times and sometimes through bad ______ the loving mother and _____ the dearest dad Sadly _____ (groom) must drink this one alone, and _____(bride) with an empty glass Sit back and relax – nine months will quickly pass!

We did a wine basket for my friend's shower and it was a huge hit. Each bottle of wine is for a different occasion and you attach a card with the poem. we read it out loud for everyone to hear
And you can get some cute wines to match each theme...like a Blue Christmas Elvis wine or Mommy's time out.

Re: HELPPPPPP!!!! Ideas Needed!!!!!
There is another poem that is really nice, but you would have to wrap the bottle in certain color ribbons. Just reword the candle poem a bit. My friend did it for a baby shower and made a hilarious poem for each bottle of wine and than gave a bottle of vodka to be used during teenage years. It was hysterical. Wish I would have saved it.

Ok, this is obviously a wedding cake, But you can do a smaller version of the same for her shower cake. Maybe one tier instead of 3.
Great theme! I've seen placecard holders that are wine corks (Kate Aspen has them); for prizes, you could give out all wine-themed stuff like a corkscrew, coasters, bottle stopper, etc; decor with leaves and grapevines; Maybe you could work with the establishment to make the first course a wine tasting with specific cheeses/hors d'ouvres that match (it can also be done buffet style for the first 20 minutes or so before the bride comes in when everyone is just sitting around); mail a recipe card w/ each invite and ask each guest to provide a recipe for food or drink that uses wine; name tables after wines instead of giving them numbers
