Sometimes it's hard to know what to get the host or hostess of a party. Wine? Or is a card more personal?

Fortunately, we live in a world where you can combine the two ideas. In December, we saw Moet & Chandon offer personalized bottles via their NYC boutique, and at SignatureWines.com, you can get personalized bottles of wine, champange, water, and even gift sets and accessories.

Thank You, Congratulations, Good Luck, and Drink Me are all appropriate sentiments, and enhanced when you include both your name and the name of your host.

Prices at Signature Wines are surprisingly affordable; they start at $8 per bottle (and no, you don't have to order a whole case). Click through the gallery to see some of the lovely design templates they offer -- or you can upload your own, even with photographs! The bottles usually ship in three days.
