Good to know before you order

  • Eight glasses: for the couple and a small wedding party, not a whole reception.
  • Tell your venue or caterer you are bringing your own toasting flutes.
  • Plain clear glass, with no engraving or gold rim.

Stemless champagne flutes for a wedding give you the tall, slim shape that shows off the bubbles, with a flat base that is steadier on a crowded table than a tall stemmed glass. This JoyJolt Milo set of eight clear crystal flutes suits your own toast, the wedding party, the getting-ready mimosas and a bridal shower brunch, and it makes a gracious gift from a parent or grandparent.

What it is and who it is for

The set contains eight stemless flutes. According to the listing:

  • each glass holds 9.5 ounces
  • each stands about 6.5 inches tall and 2.5 inches wide
  • they are made of lead-free crystal glass
  • the bowl is slim and weighted, with a flat bottom
  • they are dishwasher safe
  • the set arrives wrapped in a gift box and carries a limited one-year warranty

The glasses are plain and clear, with no gold rim, etching or logo, so they suit almost any wedding style and look just as natural on a weeknight at home afterwards.

It suits you if you are:

  • looking for toasting flutes for the two of you that you will actually use again
  • hosting a getting-ready morning or a bridal shower and want proper glasses for the mimosas
  • building a registry with pieces that get used for years
  • a mother, grandmother or friend looking for a gift for the engaged couple

It is not meant to supply a whole reception. Eight glasses cover the couple and a small wedding party; for guest glassware, ask your venue or caterer what they provide.

How to use them at your wedding

Your toast

Tell your venue or caterer that you are bringing your own toasting flutes, since some have rules about outside items, and agree who will pour. Set two at your places on the head table or sweetheart table before guests sit down, so they are ready when the speeches begin. The clear, tall shape photographs beautifully when you raise your glasses. Ask one person, often a parent or the planner, to bring the toasting pair to the venue and to wrap them and take them home at the end of the night.

The getting-ready morning

Mimosas in real glasses feel like a celebration in a way plastic cups never do. Check your venue’s rules on bringing your own alcohol, then set a few flutes on a tray with orange juice and a bottle of sparkling wine in the bridal suite. They will show up in the candid getting-ready photos too. Pour the mimosas before the gown goes on, since orange juice stains, and send the rest of the set to the groom’s room.

The bridal shower or brunch

Line the flutes up on a mimosa bar with two or three juices, a bowl of berries and a small sign. Our getting-ready checklist has more ideas for a calm, photo-ready morning.

After the wedding

A set of eight is a practical number for a dinner party, a holiday table or an anniversary. These are glasses that live in the cupboard, not in storage.

Styling ideas by theme

Modern and minimal. Clear stemless flutes suit clean lines: white linen, matte black or brushed gold cutlery, and low white flowers. Let the bubbles be the only colour on the table.

Classic evening. Set them beside candlelight on a long table with ivory linens. The tall glass catches the flame and glows in reception photos.

Garden and vineyard. Fill them with a sparkling rosé or a signature drink and add a sprig of rosemary or a single edible flower as a garnish. Use only food-safe, unsprayed flowers.

Desert or summer outdoor. Keep the bottle well chilled and the glasses in the shade, and pour just before the toast so the drink is still cold when you raise it. For more hot-weather ideas, see our outdoor summer wedding decor guide.

A personal touch. Tie a thin ribbon in your wedding colour around the two glasses you toast with, or add a small tag with your initials. It sets them apart without changing the glass, and it is a sweet way to give the set as a gift from the mother of the bride.

Stemless or stemmed flutes: which suits your wedding?

Both shapes are tall and narrow, which keeps the bubbles rising and looks elegant when you raise a glass. The real differences are in handling, look and how much use you will get afterwards.

If your wedding is strictly black tie, a stemmed flute may suit the photos better. For a relaxed or modern wedding, and for everyday use at home afterwards, stemless is the easier choice.

How many flutes do you need?

For your own toast, two. For a wedding party toast, count everyone standing up with you: one set of eight covers the two of you and six attendants, and a second set covers a larger party. For a getting-ready morning or a shower, plan one glass per guest who will be drinking, plus one or two spares.

What to know before buying

  • Your hand warms the drink. Without a stem, a hand around the glass warms the drink sooner. On a hot day, pour small and top up, which also keeps it colder.
  • Fingerprints show. Clear glass held by the bowl will show prints. Give the two toasting glasses a quick polish with a soft cloth before photos.
  • It is glass. The listing does not call them shatterproof or unbreakable. If your venue does not allow glass, for example by a pool or on a beach, check its rules first.
  • Plain by design. There is no engraving or gold rim on this listing. If you would like them engraved, look for a personalised set instead.
  • Care. The listing says dishwasher safe, which makes tidying up easy.
  • Timing. Order a few weeks ahead so you can open the box, check every glass and have them washed and ready.

Quick FAQ

Are stemless champagne flutes OK for a wedding toast?

Yes. They keep the tall, narrow shape of a traditional flute, which holds the bubbles and looks elegant in photos, and many couples find them easier to hold and set down.

How many glasses of champagne are in a bottle?

A standard 750 ml bottle holds about 25 ounces. That is about five full 5-ounce glasses, or about eight smaller 3-ounce toast pours. A 5-ounce pour fills these 9.5-ounce flutes about halfway.

Can I use these for mimosas?

Yes. The listing names mimosas, Prosecco and cocktails as uses, and the tall shape suits a mimosa bar.

Are they a good wedding gift?

They arrive wrapped in a gift box, and a set of eight is something a couple will use long after the wedding. They are a good addition to a registry for the same reason.
