Yes, the once-in-a-generation real-deal Royal Wedding is exciting, but let’s be honest, all weddings are regal in their own special way.

That said, it’s simple to add an authentic Royal Wedding touch to your own celebration. Just pop some bottles of the official royal bubbly: Dom Pérignon.

You can surely bet the William and Kate will be serving it as their wedding later this month, as magnums of Dom Pérignon vintage 1961 champagne were famously poured at the 1981 Royal Wedding of Lady Diana Spencer and Prince Charles. The bottles from that event featured labels that read:

the marriage of

His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales

and Lady Diana Spencer

29 July 1981[heading]

For couples looking to add the same regal touch to their event, Dom Pérignon now offers a special Dom Pérignon Wedding set. The package contains 12 bottles of Dom Pérignon Vintage 2000, in addition to a white lacquered box that holds an additional bottle with a unique silver label that can be personalized with the bride and groom’s names and the date of their nuptials, a la the Royal Wedding label.

The Dom Pérignon Wedding case retails for just over $2,000.
