Most often, champagne is served as a strong drink at a wedding. And sometimes it literally flows like a river, or rather a fountain. We are talking about the so-called “fountains of love” - pyramids made of glasses and filled with sparkling wine.
Which pyramid to choose?
So, structures made from wine glasses can be square, triangular, or less often they are simply lined up in several tiers. The choice among these options, as well as the size of the pyramid, directly depends on the number of people present at the event. If there are few guests, then it is better to choose a 2-story slide in the shape of a triangle. For 20 glasses you will need approximately 4 bottles of champagne.

When it is planned to gather a large number of people, the pyramids are naturally larger and are built in 6, and sometimes even 7 tiers. Well, what the maximum dimensions can be for a glass structure are known to the craftsmen from Belgium, who broke the Guinness record: they made a pile of 43 thousand wine glasses.

What glasses are needed?
Traditionally, champagne is usually served in narrow oblong glasses with elongated stems . The rule is quite logical, because this drink is best drunk cold, and through the glass it can quickly heat up from the warmth of human hands.
However, when it comes to a pyramid, first of all it is necessary to take care of the stability of the structure. In this regard, wine glasses with short stems and wide necks will be most preferable.

How did the pyramids of glasses appear?
It is impossible to build a champagne pyramid using wine glasses - narrow flute-like vessels that are considered optimal for tasting champagne. To construct fountains, coupe glasses are used, the fashion for which came from France after the 1770s. Subsequently, the bowl was modified more than once, but the general design was preserved. Glasses in the form of a bowl do not hold bubbles well and heat up quickly, but they are stable and make it possible to create multi-story structures.
It is not known for certain who was the first to make a pyramid out of champagne glasses, but a description of the design is first found in the book “Physiology of Champagne Wines” by the French writer Louis Lurin. The collection was published in 1841 and was co-written with Philippe Buvier. The publication contains anecdotes and interesting stories related to sparkling wine. Among other entertainments, the authors describe the game of “pyramids”, common in the homes of wealthy French people.
The fun was that two slides were built on the table, in the bottom row of which four to eight glasses were placed, after which all the containers were filled with champagne. The players had two tasks: drink wine and build a pyramid from empty vessels. The winner was the one who managed to empty the glasses the fastest without destroying any of the structures. During the competition, guests encouraged the competitors with cheerful songs.
This type of glass is the easiest way to build a tower.
According to another version, the tradition of building pyramids from champagne appeared at the Russian imperial court. The structure was called a cascade or fountain, since sparkling wine was poured into the top glass, and from there a foamy stream rushed into all other vessels. After the end of the First World War, glass pyramids became an attribute of the good life in Hollywood cinema and were popular at the wild social parties of the 1920s.
Nowadays, pyramids made from champagne glasses can be found at weddings, receptions and public events. Bartenders learn the art of building them in special courses, and professionals compete to create the world's largest structures in an effort to get into the Guinness Book of Records.
Another achievement was recorded in 2021, when a group of enthusiasts created a pyramid of 50 thousand glasses with a height of 7.26 meters. The event took place in Madrid with the participation of specialists from the Moët & Chandon champagne house.
Important nuances
If you decide to assemble a structure from glasses yourself, then in order to avoid an unpleasant incident with it falling at a celebration, follow a number of simple but very important rules:
- First of all draw a pyramid on paper to make sure that the number of glasses matches (or slightly more) the number of guests.
- Plan in advance the surface on which the slide will be installed: it should be perfectly flat, without tilting.
- Before building a glass structure, first practice on plastic cups.
- And finally, one more important point both for those who ordered the pyramid from specialists and for those who made it on their own: so that the balance is not disturbed and the process looks beautiful, fill the champagne from the very top wine glass in a very thin stream .
