Champagne Bar Ice Bucket
Possibly one of the most important parts of setting up your champagne bar is ensuring your champagne is ice cold. Not lukewarm, straight-out-of-the-box nonsense – ice cold, always! It’s definitely worth picking up a couple of these champagne ice buckets from Etsy as you can never be sure how fast or slow your guests will go through the champagne. Be sure to keep the ice-topped up and the bottles flowing!

Champagne Bar Glassware
When it comes to finding the right champagne flutes, most event planners will opt for the classic slender glass flute with a stem. However, more and more, trends would have it that stemless champagne flutes are all the rage. Not only are they a little more on the quirky side, but they are also far less likely to break and make for an easier glass for all. Pick up this gorgeous pack of 15 from Etsy for just $18.99 each.
Champagne Bar Drinks
If you’re still trying to decide what champagne to use, head to this awesome guide by the Wine Society to get the full scope on the best champagne for you and your bar. With that being said, one awesome little extra that has made its way onto many an Instagram feed is edible glitter. It comes in a range of colors and can instantly dress up a drink in the most shimmery of fashions. Pick up your favorite color on Etsy for just $5.99.
Champagne Bar Garnishes
And last, but not least on our guide to setting up a champagne bar for beginners is, of course, the garnish! Whether you opt for fresh fruit and mint or dried citrus – like this awesome set from Etsy for just $6.05 – it’s guaranteed to be the one way your guest truly interacts with your champagne bar and can make or break how successful your champagne cocktails and mimosas will turn out! A quick tip: go for a mix of fresh and dried fruit and you’re likely to satisfy all palates!
