My wife and I would like to have a wine tasteing party. I have never been to one and don't know the first thing about putting on a nice party. I will have to invite one friend that has been to a few and a few people he knows that have hosted parties. How do I go about having a nice party? Do I supply all the wine? How should the invitations read since edict is big deal to the misses?

You could combine wine-tasting with a dinner party, but even if you're not, rustle up some snacks to go with the wine...French bread and cheese would work well. If you want your guests to really notice what different wines taste like, they'll need to eat a bite and take a sip of water in between wines to "clear the palate."
Make sure you have plenty of clean glasses and plates available. It's ok to have folks rinse out their glasses in between "pours" since no one has an infinite amount of glassware.
As for the wine itself, you can either buy a few bottles yourself, or make it a "potluck," saying on the invitation that each person or couple is asked to bring a bottle. [The latter method will result in having a LOT of wine on hand, so watch out!] You may wish to pick a theme...such as a country or state that all the wines originated from, or a variety (like "chardonnay" or "syrah"). If you are at a loss for selecting wines, there are many wine websites that can help you (www.winespectator.com always has a list up of recommended bottles under $15, for example).
And as for invitations...if etiquette details are important to the misses...make her do them! :)

I'm planning a wine party and need some suggestions. Whats a creative way to make invitations? I'm planning on inviting about 5 people, how much cheese and crackers will be enough? Because I'm serving alcohol, I also want to serve a heavier food and a few extra munchies. Is it okay to ask people to bring their favorite wine or one they want to try? I plan to have extra bottles on hand. Other then discussing the wine and having girl talk, do you know any fun games we can play (we're between 23-30 y/o). Suggestions please!!!

Have the invitations in the shape of a wine glass with the person name on the "wine tag" on the stem.
In some way in the wording of the invite incorporate the fact that you will have wine but they can feel free to bring their favorite wine to share and discuss.
