Submerged Lands 2008

This must-have will make any bachelorette party (or wedding shower) exciting and classy and have all the guests asking, “Where did she get these?” The must-haves I am talking about are personalized shot glasses, martini glasses and other drink-ware. You can actually get sayings and pictured etched onto the glass to commemorate the special event.

A website called Glass with a Twist (www.glasswithatwist.com) makes personalized glassware for all occasions. The site offers shot glasses, beer mugs and pints, cocktail glasses, wine glasses, champagne flutes, martini glasses, margarita glasses, hurricane glasses and even pitchers. Of course you don’t need to get all of these for the party, just decide what types of drinks will be served and get the appropriate glasses.

If you are throwing the party at someone’s home you can bring glasses for the whole night. If you will be going out to a bar, just bring a few (maybe one per person) and ask the bartender to pour your drinks into your own glasses or simply transfer it yourself once you get your drinks. The best part is, when the party is done you can have everyone take a glass home as a keepsake or have the bride-to-be keep them all as a gift. Either way the personalized glasses will serve as a memory for the night that nobody is going to remember.

Glass with a twist offers premade glasses with funny sayings but you also have the option to design your own glass. You can choose what is written as well as the font. They can even add pictures for you. Here are some ideas for what to engrave on you original, personalized glassware.

1. Each person’s name with a wedding related picture. This is the best idea if you are planning on giving everyone their own glass to take home after the party.

2. Funny quotes about marriage such as “Marriage is an adventure, like going to war”, “Marriage is like a hot bath. Once you get used to it, it’s not so hot” or “Marriage is nature’s way of keeping us from fighting with strangers”.

3. The bride’s new married name (ex: Mrs. Smith).

4. A picture of shackles, or a ball and chain.

5. The date of the bachelorette party (ex: Sonya’s Bachelorette Party, August 14, 2009).

6. Jokes about your friend getting married (ex: “don’t do it Sonya” or “we’re gonna miss you when you’re over on the dark side”)

These are just some suggestions, but you can write virtually anything on the glassware and it will be a hit.

The prices at Glass with a Twist are not too bad, either and the more you order the cheaper it is. Engraved martini glasses (with the engraving around the base of the glass) are only $7.95 per glass if you order more than 12.

So go ahead and make an order, we guarantee the bride-to-be as well as all the guests at the party will be impressed and excited. Just don’t forget to order one for yourself too!

Despite a love for, and connection to your spouse, many of us are completely and utterly lost when it comes time to shop for a birthday, Christmas or anniversary gift. Anniversaries are one of the most sentimental and emotional days of the year.

If your better half is a wine lover there are countless useful and gag gifts that are sure to tickle their fancy. Whether you are buying for a husband or a wife the following gifts are sure to earn you some brownie points with your spouse.

1. Etched Wine Glasses. Whether it’s your first or your fiftieth, your significant other is bound to appreciate some thoughtfully personalized wine glasses. You can get ones with funny sayings or simply put your names on them so you don’t mix up your glasses. You can even get glasses to commemorate your wedding day, with both of your names and the date of your marriage.

2. Wine-opoloy. This game is a spin off of the age old Monopoly. Each deed back contains fun facts about wine and instead of getting sent to jail, you can get sent to the Wine Cellar to age. If your spouse loves wine and loves board games, this gift will be a hit.

3. Wine playing cards. These cards are available in both red wine and white wine. Each card includes wine description and trivia. These can be kept as part of a card collection or used for playing card games, including poker.

4. 3D wine bottle puzzle. This a life size wooden wine bottle that breaks into puzzle pieces. The goal is to put them back together to form a complete wine bottle. This is a good gift for a puzzle enthusiast.

5. VitiVini Trivia game. This game is presented in flashcard style and once you have mastered it, you will be a true wine connoisseur. This is a great game for beginners who want to learn about wine, or experts who want to show off their skills.

6. Wine Art. If your spouse enjoys hanging art around the house or office, you might want to think about getting them some wine art. There are various prints available. Some feature a bottle or glass of wine and others boast the art from bottle labels. If you add a frame to this gift your spouse is sure to love it.

7. Humorous t-shirts. Wine shirts with one-liners printed on them such as “you had me at Merlot” and “got wine?” are a great gift for men and women alike.

8. Cork pops. Better than a corkscrew and way more innovative. The needle of the cork pops pierces the cork and with a touch of the button it pressurizes the bottle with inert gas. The cork pops right out. You need to buy one-use cartridges but your spouse is sure to love this new take on wine opening.

9. Wine bottle candles. This can be a gift or simply a classy and romantic way to set the mood for your anniversary dinner. You can buy full sized wine bottle shaped candles or cork candles which are put in the top of an empty wine bottle.

10. Cork trivet kit. This kit allows you to use corks from your favorite wine bottles and make a useable trivet out of them. You can choose to use corks from momentous dinners together.
