Champagne Any Suggestions On Best Place To Order?

We are getting personalised Zippo lighters for groomsmen - all of them are smokers though so fairly relevant to them but maybe nobody else.. You could consider more traditional 'personalised ale glasses', tie pins, cufflinks, hip flasks...

We have ordered all of our wine and champagne from Tesco Wine - we waited until there was a decent offer on (MSE often highlight these :money:) and orderered the lot in one go. Saved quite a considerable amount of money although my Parents don't seem impressed with having to store it (without being able to sample!) :rotfl:

Now that bodes to be a lovely family moment. Enjoy it?!

Do please include time for tea & cakes - I know, expensive fabrics & sticky buns a bad combination, but it's hard work & you need to keep yur strength up!

"Low blood sugar" is the family euphemism for the cause of screaming matches, feuds, not speaking/texting/writing just slandering/libelling etc. Shopping together now tends to include "teabreaks" of about 20 minutes per hour every hour, but whilst logistically a chore, it keeps folks friendly.

Wishing you all the very best with the day and every day thereafter!
