Were you the one who posted about the wine basket shower gift that has a little poem about when to open each bottle? If so, would you be willing to post it again - Thanks!

    Yes, I did receive the wine basket but I dont have the poem. I think someone else found the poem by googling.

    JIY- Here ya go -- I saved it a while back and actually just used it a few weeks ago!  It was a huge hit. A basket of wine for a special pair, wrapped in all different colors for you both to share. We hope that you are both always as happy as today. Please share this wine just the way that we say. First, drink the champagne - the bottle all wrapped in lace - on your first married night in your new chosen place. The silver one you must wait to unseal 'til you have your first guests over for a meal. Love as you might, you'll have your first fight... Drink the blue one while you make up all night. The gold bottle is for Thanksgiving; to toast to the love-filled life you are living. The winters in your hometown might get a bit cold, drink the white bottle during your first snowfall. The green bottle's for Christmas, so put up your tree, drape the ceilings in mistletoe and get tipsy On January 1st, while sharing some kisses, drink the purple bottle to toast the New Year as Mr.. and Mrs.. Drink the pink bottle, romantic and sweet, when it's time for your newlywed Valentine's treat. And when your first year of marriage is done, drink the red bottle in honor of anniversaries to come. Cheers to Bride and Groom on the start of their lives together - may this basket of wine symbolize the beginning of your forever.

    The bottles werent anything specific unless indicated (Champagne, white, red, etc) so they got whatever brand they wanted. They wrapped each bottle with either tissue or wrapping paper, or a lace shirt (haha) to match the poem. I have pictures of the basket at home - i'll post them tonight!

    I loved it. The funny thing is though - we have only gotten to drink 2 of the bottles, and then we will have about 5 to drink in a week!
