60 cm+ tall wine glasses?!
Answers: Difficult one here - but I am trying to find wine glasses for hire if possible, around 60 cm tall, in order to arrange flowers for a wedding. Not martini glasses - which are available - but wine glasses. My daughter's theme for her wedding is 'Wine and Roses', thus we need the tall 'wine' glasses. Can anyone help? Thank you in advance. I am in UK, so if you are somewhere else, thanks, but it will not be helpful. Take care all who read this. xx
You won't find wine glasses but you will find vases shaped like champagne flutes. Try googling "stemmed vases".
Sounds like a lovely idea, good luck and Bless the Bride!
23 inches is a bit tall for a wine glass, its even taller than a wine bottle are you sure you have your measurements right?
I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I doubt you'll find wine glasses that tall. A wine glass of that length will be very unstable and therefore not advisable for a glass maker/blower to manufacture.
I suggest to use big size used champagne bottles, anything bigger than a Magnum or a Jeroboam. A glazier could cut the neck to make for a bigger opening at the top and be able to stick the flowers with not trouble.
Maybe head to a craft store like Michaels and see if they have something in a similar shape that you can use.
That's not a realistic wine glass size for consumption, so either a craft or a flower store may have something.
I found something similar to wht you are looking for, but they are spendy. $150 per glass: http://www.greatbigstuff.com/wineglass.h...
They can ship to the UK.
