Getting engaged @ end of the month, need help!

lol.

Simple question but I know nothing about champagne and need something nice for that night. Nothing like 300 bucks a bottle but something decent.

I got everything else figured out.

She won't say no either so that's a relief.

Note: champagne the drink not the morph

Moët et Chandon is a very nice French champagne :gj: starting at $50 and up

Of course I tend to be partial to French Champagnes since it's where they (and I ;)) originated from.

We had Korbel California Champagne extra dry, at our wedding....

Fruity, tasted great,.....and was cheap.

We both love Pinot Grigio but not sure if I should go that route.

I'm under 21, so I can't buy alcohol and have never had champagne. However, I am a girl, so I was going to say that no matter what kind of champagne you get, also get a bowl of yummy strawberries if you can. I hear those go pretty nice with it, and I love strawberries even all by themselves. :)
Good luck! I'm engaged myself. :P I know I'm young, but. :oops: We've been together for almost 2 years. lol.
Shellie...epic hopeless romantic.

there you go! I think it would be more important to have something yall both enjoy than some expensive bottle that yall might hate!

I think it would be cute to try a new bottle of champagne that they might both like to mark a new time in their life/relationship.

Good luck and congratulations!

Big Gunns is always happy to "help".

BG your just wrong.......funny but wrong.

Well My Recommendation would be Moet's Rose!

Martini & Rossi Asti is a really good affordable Sparkling wine..

Make sure you know that the bottle will say sparkling wine, unless it is from a particular area of France it can't be labeled and sold as "Champagne" but the end produce is still a carbonated wine..so you're not getting ripped off or sold a knock off. ;)

Drop a couple of Raspberries in the glass after you poor it.. they look pretty and are tasty to eat as your sipping the wine..

Best of luck

PFFFTT. That's GREAT ADVICE. Every single one of BG's fans that he told to get a prenup later came back to BG and told him they should have listened to him. EVERY SINGLE LAST ONE OF THEM.

To list my credentials I have a 2 year culinary degree and am a certified Sommelier. I have 3 and a half almost 4 years in the wine selling industry.


I recommend Domaine chandon. At 20 dollars a bottle it maintains a quality equal to many french champagnes. Unlike many cheaper bottles it is done the natural way not pumped full of headache inducing C02. And they have a rose and a sweeter version to choose from as well. They also have a 40 dollar bottling "Etoile" Which can easily compete against french champagne. This is the american bottling of the Moet & Chandon Brand.


Edit:

Vueve Cliqout is an actual french champagne and at 40 to 50 dollars a bottle is a spectacular and affordable bottling.

Congrats on your first step to REAL adventure! Hearing about how people ask advice on how to pop the/how THEY popped THE question would always make me warm and fuzzy inside :)

Wish I could help on the champagne department; always had to make a quick call to my old man on what brand to get. But this "scarred" veteran should be able to give you some tips/hints...as well as lessons learned personally...or from observing other married couples :)

Well my fellow Philadelphian I cant help you on the wine but Congrats Bro and good luck with the wedding planing Im just finishing up mine and damn Im exhausted Im ready to get this thing over with lol :rolleye2:

Dude...you work for MBC and you didn't mention the best inexpensive champagne they stock...hellooo....Mondori.....it's got a light peachy crisp bite....not the nasty after taste that so many of the champagnes leave. You should comp them a case just for missin that one LOL.:rofl:
