Throwing A Winery Wedding: Tips & Tricks For The Perfect Day

What classier place to host your wedding than at a beautiful winery close to home! Winery weddings are absolutely gorgeous and no doubt an unforgettable way for your friends and family to experience your big day.

We at Peerspace have put together a few tips and tricks to keep in mind when planning your winery wedding. Let’s get started!

Tip #1: Discover your dream winery wedding venue

Napa Valley isn’t the exclusive spot for winery weddings in the U.S. You can find beautiful winery wedding venues anywhere around the country on Peerspace!

From Missouri and Chicago in the Midwest to California and Washington on the West Coast, Peerspace matches you with gorgeous winery and vineyard venues near you or afar in a matter of clicks.

Just head to Peerspace’s winery landing page, enter “wedding” and your location, and click search. Once your options have popped up, sort venues by the date, keyword, and price.

Ahead, we share just a few of the gorgeous options you’ll find throughout the U.S.

Missouri

Celebrate your big day at the region’s only winery with a wine cave! This beautiful and unique property just outside Kansas City offers gorgeous patio views over the vineyard, an indoor tasting room, an outdoor fire pit, and affordable wines from estate-grown grapes.

Massachusetts

Combine the beauty of a historic venue with the class of a winery by booking a gorgeous space like this one in Boston! “Brick and stick” built in the 1800s, this Peerspace venue is now a fully operational winery that even offers catering service for weddings.

Nevada

Your wedding is the most special day, deserving of being in the most special location — like Las Vegas’ first and only winery!  Located in the Booze District, this wine and tasting room can hold up to 400 guests and offers handcrafted wine by the glass or bottle.

“This place was absolutely incredible,” says one Peerspace reviewer.

California

Art, wine, and a celebration of a lifetime can all come together at this beautiful St. Helena wedding venue on Peerspace. This is one of Napa Valley’s older wineries — as well as one of the area’s most spectacular venues for a wedding!

Your guests will have access to the art gallery, historic stone cellar, and plentiful wine during your big day. Learn more about this Napa Valley venue on Peerspace!

Washington

Looking for a more intimate location for your winery wedding? Check out this adorable and cozy winery in Woodinville, Washington! The gorgeous tasting room comes with a few high-top tables along with a wine bar and is decorated with local art and candles.

In the winery, you have plenty of space to spread out, dance, and chat with guests. Site visits can also be arranged with the Peerspace host prior to booking — just shoot them a message letting them know when you would like to swing by!

Illinois

A vineyard wedding with a farmyard twist! We love the idea of using this Red Bud, Illinois winery and event space for just such an occasion.

The front shop was recently remodeled with a modern farm style, the Gathering room offers beautiful farm-style tables and the pavilion offers absolutely gorgeous vineyard views! 

Tip #2: Request a tasting session

Talk to the winery you are renting for your wedding about incorporating a tasting session into the evening’s events!

The tasting could just be part of the wine and beer service for guests who walk up to get a drink, or you could have a sommelier greet guests at different tables during dinner, explain the wine selection, and provide tastings. Either way is a fun and unique experience!

Tip #3: Be ready for the weather

While we all hope for sunny skies during our wedding, sometimes mother nature doesn’t cooperate. Rent a Peerspace venue that has both indoor and outdoor event space available.

It’s important to find a Peerspace you love that’s beautiful inside and out, so rain, snow, or shine — you and your guests can celebrate the occasion in an absolutely stunning space!

Tip #4: Spruce up typical vineyard attire

Floral dresses are a wonderful dress option for a vineyard — so why not include floral prints in your wedding party’s attire!

Floral bridesmaid’s dresses are a wonderful choice as are classy floral ties for groomsmen. Dusty blue, olive green, and dark reds and purples are also beautiful tones to request your wedding party wear for your special day!

Tip #5: Ask about noise ordinances

On Peerspace, it’s easy to chat with venue hosts about your specific needs and preferences via Peerspace messenger. During your chat with the host, make sure to ask them about any noise ordinances in the area.

Some properties only allow music until a certain time, for example. This is something you’ll definitely want to be aware of when planning your winery wedding!

Tip #6: An inspired winery wedding color palette

Burgundy, blush, gold, peach, and greens are all fabulous colors to match your winery wedding look!

If you aren’t already decided on a color palette, we recommend finding your perfect venue on Peerspace first and seeing what colors the space already features on its walls and with its included decorations. Some spaces may even have specialized decorations for a variety of color palettes if you ask!
