Highly recommend Wine at Five! Wine experts that elevated our special day!

We had an incredible experience working with Wine at Five for our New Jersey wedding. From the initial planning stages to the final delivery, Dave, Meridith, and their team were knowledgeable, supportive, and a joy to work with!

We wanted the wine and liquor at our wedding to feel intentional and well-curated, and Wine at Five made that vision a reality. They guided us through a tasting where we selected wines and spirits from smaller, independent producers - something that really set our celebration apart.

The logistics were flawless, too. They coordinated delivery and setup with ease, which made the whole process stress-free for us. Our guests absolutely raved about the drinks - it truly elevated the entire experience.

We’re so grateful to Wine at Five for helping make our day so personal and special. Highly recommend!!!

Wine for wedding and anniversary bottles

We got married at the Rainbow Room in New York City, so while we were required to purchase all bar services from the venue, we still wanted to incorporate great wine into our wedding experience - so Dave helped us get creative and it was just what we were looking for. My husband and I are by no means wine connoisseurs, but we love having a special bottle of wine on special occasions. Dave was able to find us wines that would be ready to open on each of our anniversaries for the first 25 years. Each bottle had a table number on it during the reception, which corresponded with the anniversary year we’re meant to open and drink. Guests at each table signed the bottles and now every year on our anniversary, we get to see sweet notes left by our family and friends AND drink a great bottle wine to celebrate. It has been such a fun anniversary tradition, opening a new bottle each year and also a special way to reflect back on our wedding.

Dave’s wine expertise and industry experience works to your advantage, as he was able to access bottles we wouldn’t have normally found on our own. Quite honestly, if we could have purchased all of our wines from him for the reception, we would have! Dave is incredibly knowledgably about all aspects of wine- the varietals, where the wine grows and comes from, how they will taste, what food the wine pairs well with. He is able to help you select what wines are right for you and does so in such a warm and supportive way.

The wines you get from Dave are guaranteed to make you and your guests happy. He is open to working with your budget and most importantly, he takes all the stress out of decision making. Highly recommend working with Dave and team for any event.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
