How to Get Married at a Winery

If you love fine wine and the beautiful vistas of vineyards, a winery in California may be the perfect location for your wedding nuptials.

Instructions

STEP 1: Log onto winecountry.com/eventplanning/weddings.html for general information about the California Wine Country and links to wedding sites and planners.

STEP 2: Visit the area if possible and scout out potential wedding venues. Remember to inquire about special rates for wedding packages.

STEP 3: Select your favorite winery and the specific location for your nuptials. Choices range from gazebos overlooking the vineyards to elegant indoor settings.

STEP 4: Book lodging at the winery for your wedding party and guests. Some wineries allow you to have exclusive use of the property if you book all the rooms.

STEP 5: Work with the winery's wedding coordinator who will assist with all of the details, including custom labels for the wine served at your reception.

STEP 6: Consider wedding favors that tie in with the winery theme. Give wine bottle toppers, wine glasses or even wine if you can afford it.

STEP 7: Arrange to get your marriage license in the specific county. Find out more at www.dhs.ca.gov/chs/OVR/Marriage/Default.htm.
