(ARA) - Couples spend thousands of dollars to make their special day stand out. If you really want to wow your guests, offer them chocolate. And I'm not talking about your run-of-the-mill candy bar variety typically found in the average wedding favor. I'm talking about a chocolate lover's fantasy come true.
Chocolate fountains have recently emerged as one of the most popular trends and most sought after centerpieces for weddings, bridal showers, engagement parties and special occasions. You may have heard about them. Some of the latest trends you've read about are a little over the top, but not this one. Although renting a professional fountain can be expensive, purchasing one is surprisingly cost effective. You'll find your chocolate fountain is useful for at-home entertaining long after the honeymoon is over.
But back to the wedding
Picture this. Your guests arrive at the reception enveloped in the warm, decadent aroma of chocolate. As they move closer to the mouth-watering scent, they see a beautiful fountain of cascading chocolate and they begin to gather around it, intrigued by the delicious goodies surrounding the centerpiece. There are strawberries, pretzels, marshmallows, and cookies just waiting to be dipped in the sumptuous, mouth-watering chocolate. Yummy!
It's truly a chocolate lover's dream
Rival makes one of the most affordable chocolate fountains we've come across. For under $60, your guests can indulge themselves in the most decadent chocolate experience. This attractive centerpiece will complement your hot and cold hors d'oeuvres during the reception or serve as a perfect companion to the wedding cake desert. Either way, one thing is for sure; chocolate is a delightful treat that will leave your guests wanting for more.
However, that's not the only reason you might want to consider buying your own chocolate fountain. Unlike other purchases you'll make for the Big Day, you can actually use the fountain again and again. Think about this. Your wedding dress will be stored in the closet in hopes that you'll be able to pass it down to your daughter someday (if she even likes it). The flowers on the tables will long be wilted. But the chocolate fountain is a purchase you'll never have tucked away for long. You'll want to bring it out for holidays, barbeques, family reunions, dinner parties or any time you entertain at home. It's perfect for turning any occasion into an event. That's what makes it so special.
But maybe the best reason of all to indulge yourself is that the cost won't break your bridal budget. No matter what type of wedding you are planning, all the details (and there are lots of them!) can add up to big money. The Rival Chocolate Fountain is easy to use and one way to look like you've spent a fortune without the exorbitant expense.
Starting August 1, the Rival Chocolate Fountain will be available nationally at major retailers such as Costco, Linens 'n Things and May Companies.
