Champagne Flutes for the Wedding Toast
Wedding champagne flutes come in two kinds: a matching toasting pair for the couple, and sets of 4 or 8 for the bridal party, the getting-ready mimosas or the head table. The toasting sets for the couple are the last two picks, and how to choose follows.

A toasting pair, or a set
The couple’s flutes are usually a matched pair, raised for the toast and kept afterwards. Our two toasting picks are the Jozen Gift pair and the Boao set with a cake knife and server. Sets of 4 or 8 are for the people around you: bridesmaids getting ready, the head table, a shower or the morning-after brunch. For guests, venues and caterers often supply glassware, so check your contract before buying for the whole room.
Stemmed or stemless
Stemmed toasting flutes give the classic raised-glass photo and look formal at a black tie or ballroom wedding. Stemless flutes sit lower, are harder to knock over on a crowded table or a hotel dresser, and pack easily. Three of our picks are stemless; the Jozen pair and the Boao flutes are stemmed, for the toast.
Capacity
These run from 7 oz (the Jozen pair) to 10 oz (the Boao flutes). A toast is a small pour, so capacity matters less than how the glass looks and feels in your hand. For mimosas, the 9 to 9.5 oz stemless sets leave room for juice.
Care
Pieces set with crystal stones or rhinestones need gentle handling: the Jozen and Boao listings both say hand wash only. The three stemless sets are listed as dishwasher safe, and the KooK set as freezer safe too. Decide who washes and boxes the toasting flutes at the end of the night.
Metal and style
Gold rims suit gold decor, warm candlelight and ivory gowns. Silver rhinestones suit silver jewelry and cool palettes. Clear glass goes with everything. The Boao set is offered in more than one finish, so choose yours on the listing. Three of these come gift boxed (the DORELINA, JoyJolt and Jozen Gift sets), which helps if you are giving them as a present.
How many to buy
- The couple: one pair for the toast. A set of 4 stemless flutes gives you a pair plus two spares.
- The bridal party: count everyone getting ready with you, including mothers and grandmothers, then round up to the set size. A set of 8 covers the bride and up to seven others; two sets cover a larger group. See the JoyJolt set of 8 or the KooK set of 8.
- Guests: ask the venue or caterer first. You may not need to buy guest glassware.
How to use them on the day
- Pack the toasting flutes in their box and give them to one person, such as your planner, coordinator or a bridesmaid, with a note of when the toasts happen.
- Tell your caterer you are bringing your own toasting flutes, and ask for them to be set at the sweetheart or head table and filled just before the toasts.
- If you have the Boao set, the knife and server go to the cake table at the same time.
- At the end of the night, have someone box them up before the venue clears the tables.
Common questions
Does the venue provide champagne flutes for the toast?
Many venues and caterers include glassware for guests, so check your contract. Couples often bring their own toasting pair because they want to keep it.
Are stemless flutes OK for a wedding toast?
Yes. They look modern, sit steady on a crowded table and pack easily. Choose a stemmed pair if you want the classic raised-glass photo.
Can toasting flutes go in the dishwasher?
Check the listing. The Jozen pair and the Boao set, which have crystal stones or rhinestones, say hand wash only. The three stemless sets here are listed as dishwasher safe.
Who keeps the toasting flutes after the wedding?
Usually the couple, as a keepsake for anniversaries. Ask someone to pack them before the venue clears the tables.
