All big celebrations call for Champagne or it's equivalent and what you choose depends on your budget.
Champagne is a french sparkling wine made from grapes in a particular region.
We all know the popular brands: Moet & Chandon, Veuve Clicquot, Laurent Perrier etc.
But there are other brands of champagne and sparkling wines that are affordable and do taste good.
  1. Non-Vintage Veuve Clicquot
  2. Concha y Toro Brut
  3. Korbel Natural Sparkling Wine
  4. Roederer Estate Brut

Another popular choice is a Prosecco; it has a very delicate taste and works great with meals also.
Prosecco is an Italian sparkling wine that is more affordable than champagne and is available in Brut, Extra Dry and Dry.

This bring us to the topic of Sweetness.
Extra Brut has the least amount of sugar per litre
Brut has a little more sweetness and is the most popular
Extra Dry and Sec are even more sweeter than the Brut but drier than a Demi-Sec
Demi-Sec is the sweetest of them all, even though it's name means "half-dry"
Rose is best to have with a meal

Champagne and Sparkling wines are nice for all types of events, a special night-out, Birthday party, New Year's eve, Christmas dinner, Corporate events and of course Weddings. 
Live outside of the box and explore the world of Champagnes and Wines to find which is your favorite and to see it's versatility. 
Happy drinking!
