Do you really want sets of sheets or new cutlery? According to today’s demographics, you’ve probably spent the past few years living together, you are more likely to be 28 to 32 in age not 20 to 24 you’re not new to the work force your career is taking shape, put simply you have all the equipment for which traditional wedding gifts cater. Maybe you’re looking for something special but pray not another set of sheets or cutlery.
The Concept
Your search for something different can stop here, Wedding Cellars offers something that can be shared in equal amounts by every couple it also carries equal amounts of enjoyment, it’s something to which you can add as time passes, it’s a gift from your wedding day that can be enjoyed (and enhanced) in thirty even forty years time, it is a gift from your friends and family that can be enjoyed with or without their company.
Todays demographics summise that young couples already care about what they are eating and drinking. They are likely to have visited one of Australia’s wine districts, taken in some tastings and many have begun an appreciation for good wine. But when it comes to putting a wine cellar together we stumble as it is difficult to gain critical mass it is the most difficult part.
We all know that the 12 or so bottles stashed under the bed or in the built-in robe is constantly under threat come 10.30pm and you’ve got half a bottle of Sauv Blanc to share between 10 guests "what the hell ..they are your bridal party" you think to yourself. Like your brain, the next morning your stash is severely dehydrated.
Fast forward 10 years, friends get together for a meal, the kids are finally in bed its time to relax. You produce the Hunter Semillon you have stored via Wedding Cellars at Wine-Ark the best man purchased it for your cellar you still have 3 left, you also choose a Barossa shiraz, one of the Brides maids chose it off the list you still have 8 left. The wines are drinking really well, thanks to perfect conditions in which it's been stored they’ve improved with age. You’re approaching the last half of a bottle senario but instead of having to raid the special reserves your maturing cellar allows you the luxury of grabbing a drink now wine, you’re all losing your palate and to spoil a good bottle now would be pointless.
The special thing about wine is that you can enjoy it for decades to come. Wedding Cellars staff will help guide you through the planning of a cellar, we encourage balance. With balance will come an effective pricing schedule as not everyone will be able to afford half a dozen ‘Hill of Grace’ or ‘Grange’ and there is great cellaring wine from $15. We are here to help you get that balance. Balance also means getting a cellar that has wine for now and wine for the future.
