Show your wares. Let the quality of your Champagne shine through in the proper glassware. Rent or purchase Champagne flutes at least two days before the event. Make sure you have enough to last you through the party.

Platter platitudes. Order any food platters a week before the event and schedule the pickup for two hours before the event. When ordering the platters, make sure the food is light and refreshing-like fruit and cheese. Spicy foods tend to clash with Champagne?s carbonation.

Connoisseur corner. Impress your guests with your knowledge of Champagne and wine. Buy a guide or ask the store attendant in your local wine store for a few interesting tidbits.
