Cheap Champagne…Expensive Champagne
December 7, 2010We recently had a wedding. When it was time for the toasts the caterers had an amazingly difficult time opening the bottles. They managed it with seconds to spare. Later that evening much to my surprise the bridal party all still in formal dress went outside in the street and started opening champagne bottles and spraying each other with it. The odd thing was they had no problem at all opening the bottles. The caterer and I were watching from the upper balcony. She sort of gasped and raced down to look at the bottles. It turns out they had given her 2 kinds of champagne the expensive stuff to toast with and the cheap stuff to spray each other with. The caterer served the cheap bubbly and the guests were now spraying each other with the expensive bubbly. No one seemed to notice or care. They just had an absolute blast.
