Really think about how many people will actually be drinking wine. There are frighteningly many who do not enjoy wine and would prefer beer and cocktails. Analyze your guest list in order to target the wine drinkers and be realistic. For instance, if there are a lot of blue-haired ladies in the bunch, a Barolo's not going to be a big hit while a sweeter white might be. Your object is to please your guests, not educate them. As for the champagne, It is only necessary to provide one serving per guest for the toast. I would have a few extra bottles as the couple of the hour may want to indulge in it. Remember also that at most weddings, a really great sparkling wine can not only appeal to your guests' palates, but also keep your wallet healthy and green. I hope this helps. Congrats to the happy couple!
