Coteau Rougemont

There is something especially romantic about a wedding surrounded by things that have taken years to grow.

At Coteau Rougemont, vines and apple trees spread across the landscape of Rougemont, creating a wedding setting that feels beautifully connected to the countryside around it.

The vineyard and cidery welcomes weddings among its grounds, giving couples the chance to celebrate somewhere that already seems to move at a gentler pace. Views open across the property, the rows of vines bring texture to the landscape and the orchard gives the setting a softness that changes naturally with the seasons.

It is easy to imagine the day beginning outside.

Guests arrive through the countryside. Glasses begin appearing in people's hands. Somewhere nearby, the couple is finishing those last nervous minutes before the ceremony while friends and family settle into their seats.

Then comes the moment everything else has been leading toward.

After the vows, there is no need to disappear far away for photographs. The vineyard and orchard are already waiting.

For a little while, the newlyweds can wander away from everyone else and let the celebration continue behind them. Rows of vines stretch into the distance, the light begins to soften and for perhaps the first time all day there is a chance to look at one another and realize that they are actually married.

Later, everyone comes back together.

Dinner begins. Bottles from the estate are opened. Speeches turn into laughter and the carefully arranged reception slowly becomes warmer and louder as evening settles over Rougemont.

There is something lovely about raising a glass at a wedding using something created from the same land surrounding the celebration.

For couples who want their day to feel elegant without losing the romance of the countryside, Coteau Rougemont offers a setting where vineyards, orchards and a very important gathering of people can all become part of the same story.
