Romantic Vineyard Weddings
Few occasions are celebrated as elegantly and joyfully as a vineyard wedding. Vineyard staffs are dedicated to arranging the perfect event for you and your guests in their magnificent settings.
Whether you dream of a lavish formal banquet for hundreds of guests, or an intimate gathering of your closest family and friends, vineyards will work closely with you to tailor every moment to match your personal style and preference.
Could there be any place more enchanting for a wedding than a romantic vineyard? Envision tables overlooking rows of grapes under the blue summer sky, or choose an intimate setting of an underground wine cellar. Either way, you will have a wedding venue that is distinctively romantic and refined.
A vineyard wedding creates a fantastic theme around which to design your entire event. Introduce the theme and style of your wedding with your invitations, consider an elegant white paper with a gold embossed cluster of grapes. Or opt for a rustic look with cream colored paper and a grapevine motif winding across the bottom.
There are several color palettes to choose from, consider a Tuscan style with a rich golden yellow, russet red and chocolate brown accents. Or let the grapes themselves provide the inspiration: shades of purple and plum mix beautifully with natural elements such as wheat and grapevines for decorations. Carry your selection through to your bridesmaid dresses, the linens, and the flowers.
Begin your reception with the vineyard’s signature vinos, you may also wish to feature a wine-based cocktail like sangrias. Pair these wines with cheeses, and rich chocolates for appetizers. For the dinner, plan a meal with a variety of wines that will compliment each course. Consider hiring shuttles to transport your guests back to their hotel at the end of the evening!
Finish the wedding with vineyard themed favors for your guests. A silver wine cork, a bottle of olive oil, or even a small bottle of wine with a personalized label – these types of favors will make your vineyard wedding an event that your guests will be sure to remember!
