It’s all in the presentation.

Whether it’s waiters going table to table pouring bubbly or sleek bottles lining a shelf behind the bar, the spirits you serve don’t just have to help guests have a good time – they can provide some eye candy and a bit of fun for your guests, too. Here are two that are sure to make an statement at any event.

MEDEA Vodka

MEDEA, a new ultra-premium Dutch vodka, arrives in the world’s first customizable/programmable bottle. The LED display can be programmed with up to six messages (255 characters per message). Illuminated text displays or scrolls, depending on the length of the message. Couples can have fun by spreading a message across multiple bottles.

MSRP: $39.99; medeaspirits.com for retailers

Dom Pérignon Andy Warhol Collection

Pop a cork pop-art style with an exclusive collection of Andy Warhol-inspired bottles from Dom Pérignon. The Design Laboratory at Central Saint Martin’s School of Art & Design in London was commissioned by the luxe bubbly to reinterpret it’s classic vessel in an homage to the art icon. The result is vibrant-hued takes on Dom’s classic label in distinct Warhol red, blue and yellow.
