champagne tower

Cascading bubbly display

A champagne tower is a pyramid of stacked glasses, typically coupes, arranged so that champagne poured into the top glass cascades down to fill all the others.

The display is associated with weddings, galas, and celebrations meant to convey abundance and festivity: They built a champagne tower for the reception.

The structure requires careful balance—a poorly built tower risks dramatic collapse.
