Every wedding usually consist of a bridal party and some sort of toast right?! My husband and I got married May 25, 2014. We had a simple, DIY, rustic wedding. Since I was becoming Mrs. Martini we incorporated Martini's into the wedding by serving Pixie Stick and Purple Haze Martinis, toasting with Martini Champagne and using Martini glasses as the wedding party table decorations and toasting glasses.
As part of the bridal party gifts, I made a Personalized Martini glass for each of the members of our bridal party and our ushers to use during the toasts. The glasses were actually pretty easy to make, cheap and everybody liked them. You don't need to be very creative to make these personalized glasses and you can personalize any type of glass - whiskey, wine, martini - the same way, I'll show you how:

The glasses were actually pretty easy to make, cheap and everybody liked them.

Supplies:
- Glasses - enough for everybody in your bridal party, ushers and don't forget about the Bride and Groom
- Puffy Paint OR Paint Pens
- Write OR Print out of the names in the Font of your choice
- Masking Tape
I bought all of the glasses from the Dollar Tree. The Dollar Tree has Martini Glasses, Wine Glasses and several other glasses all for $1 each, you can't beat that! Everywhere else I looked averaged about $5+ per glass so I recommend checking out the Dollar Tree first, especially if you are on a budget.
How To:
1. Print out or write a list of the bridal parties names the size and font you want them to be.
2. Tape the name to the inside of the glass using masking tape. Masking tape makes it easier to remove once you are finished.
3. Using puffy paint or a paint pen, trace the name onto the glass. If you mess up, wipe it off with a paper towel right away before it dries.
What's the difference?
Puffy Paint - gives the words a 3D feel, will last longer
Paint Pen - think of a Sharpie but paint instead; easier to write with but may scratch off easier.
4. Write the date and person's duty on the base of the glass. Let Dry. If you didn't let the name dry, be careful not to smear the name when you write on the bottom of the glass.
For the Bride and Groom's glass I wrote, "I Do" and the wedding date.
For the Bridal Party glasses I wrote their duty (Groomsmen, Bridesmaid, Matron of Honer, Best Man, Usher) and the wedding date.
For the Bride and Groom's glass I wrote, "I Do" and the wedding date.

Optional: You can add a design, monogram, dress, tux, etc... to the glass if you want. I didn't have a lot of room on the Martini glasses so I just wrote their names. Make it personalized to your wedding and wedding party.
These glasses were cheap and super easy to make. They are a great way to make your wedding more personalized. You can personlize the glasses however you want. You can eve use any type of glass you want. These personalized glasses are great for the Bride and Groom to toast with at their wedding. They also make great gifts for the bridal party, anniversary glass or a 21st Birthday party glass.
