Drinks other than champagne! Reception toast drink ① Beer

The most popular toast drink other than champagne is beer ♡

Many couples seem to distribute stylish overseas beers in bottles, such as Heineken and Budweiser, for their toasts ♩

Compared to toasting with champagne, it creates a more casual and homey atmosphere for the party ♡

Corona beer, said to be the top imported beer brand in Japan, is also popular ♡

An idea is to use original design koozies (drink holders) as escort items and have guests toast with Corona in the koozie ♩

Sapporo Beer’s “Photo Beer,” which allows you to create original labels, is also recommended.

By putting pictures of the couple or guests on the label, it becomes a surprise ♡

Tying tags with guests' names and setting them up as gift place cards, while having guests toast with them is also lovely ♩

"Photo Beer" can also accept completely original designs instead of photographs.

Toasting with a beer featuring original labels with the couple's names and wedding date ♡

At popular wedding venue Trunk Hotel, you can serve original package TRUNK beer.

Toasting with a drink unique to that venue will create memorable moments ♡

Drinks other than champagne! Reception toast drink ② Sakura wine

A couple toasted with white wine instead of champagne. They served it with cherry blossom petals floating on top, presenting it as sakura wine.

This is a stylish idea perfect for a spring wedding ♩

Drinks other than champagne! Reception toast drink ③ Sake

Couples entering the reception in traditional attire should definitely toast with sake ♩

It’s common to perform a kagami-biraki (sake barrel opening ceremony) at the beginning of the reception and distribute that sake for the toast.

Using cups or masu (square measuring cups) instead of glasses for the toast will be refreshing and enjoyable for guests.

Preparing lots of sake and setting up a sake bar or sake buffet corner is also wonderful.

If you provide local sake from the couple's hometown, it will spark conversations about local topics.

Drinks other than champagne! Reception toast drink ④ Fruit juice

If there are guests driving, or if you have many female or child guests, toasting with non-alcoholic drinks is an option ♡

Toasting with fruit juice poured into cute jars will welcome a refreshing start to the party ♩

Stylish paper straws will enhance the excitement.

Adding berries to non-alcoholic cocktails will create adorable drinks that are great for photos ♡

Drinks other than champagne! Reception toast drink ⑤ Melon soda

Believe it or not, there was a bride who chose melon soda for the toast drink! It’s childlike, seems to have universal appeal, and allows everyone to toast together with melon soda ♡

Look at the joyful smiles of the guests!

It seems the guests also gave positive feedback ♩

Moreover, this melon soda is a style made by the guests themselves!

Setting up an ice cream scoop at the guest table allows them to scoop ice cream and top it with a cherry to complete their drinks ♡

Such a fun reception it would be!

Customizing the toast drink for your original wedding ♩

When it comes to wedding celebrations, champagne is the standard toast drink, but of course, it’s completely fine to toast with other drinks!

If there are many guests who aren’t fond of alcohol or if other drinks might create more excitement... choosing a uniquely personal toast drink can be fun too ♡

It’ll surely lead to a wedding that reflects your own style! ♡
