Wedding Party Taste Off

It’s been a while since our last entry, so here’s what’s been going on. As our wedding day approaches we wanted to have a night to where our entire wedding party could come together and really get to know one another. So Elaina and I decided that we should have a wine tasting party.



The rules were simple, each person/couple needed to bring one bottle of their favorite cabernet sauvignon and $5. Elaina and I would number and foil wrap each bottle then everyone would taste and vote on the bottle they liked the most. The person/couple that brought the winning bottle would receive everyone’s $5! All the while the wedding party would be interacting with each other and getting drunk at the same time.


Elaina and the other girls provided everyone with a badass spread. It really came in handy once the wine started settling in!



We had wine glasses laid out for everyone with their names on them. Elaina made the labels and it was my job to attach them to the glasses.


Here are most of the bottles, we ended up having about 16 bottles total!


Here are some early pictures while everyone was still bright eyed. Julie, Jakki, Kelsey, Marco, and the robot.


Andy, Mary, and Donna


Lisa and Corey


Leanne and Matt


Steven, Me, Jerry, and Vince


Marco, Edward, Kelsey, Chrischelle, Elaina, and Christine


The guys seemed to all have a gay moment, drinking wine with their arms intertwined!!! Andy, Jerry, Steven, Vince, Corey, and John.


John brought a bottle of Cab, but he also brought wine in a box. Not the best stuff in the world but it did the trick once we killed the other 14 bottles!


After all the votes were tallied, Andy and Mary brought the winning bottle!!!


Andy won, but ultimately lost because he was stuck wearing this shirt the rest of the night.


At some point Andy was dancing alone in the living room so Elaina joined him.


Here's a first, Vince smiling AND drinking beer. He even stayed out past 10pm!!!


Jerry moved on to beer after the wine. Then was kicking like David Lee Roth the rest of the night. He almost put his foot through my subwoofer while he pretended to kick imaginary EMO kids!


This pretty much sums up the night, good times for sure but we ALL pasted out. I think Elaina and I crashed about 4am.
