There are few backdrops more naturally romantic than the Okanagan when the vineyards meet the lake.
Moraine Estate Winery sits along Naramata Road in Penticton, overlooking Okanagan Lake from a property surrounded by vines and the landscape that makes this part of British Columbia such a sought-after wedding destination.
The winery is currently part of an established wedding program for celebrations of up to approximately 60 guests.
That smaller capacity creates a lovely balance.
There is enough room for a real ceremony and reception, but the guest list remains intimate enough that the entire gathering can feel connected.
Couples can hold the ceremony on the property with Okanagan Lake becoming part of the view, then remain at the winery for the reception rather than moving everyone somewhere else.
Wine made by Moraine can naturally become part of the dinner and celebration, giving the evening another connection to the place itself.
Photographs can move between vineyard rows, lake views and the changing light of the valley as afternoon turns toward evening.
There is also accommodation available on the property for a small number of guests, adding another possibility for couples who want to remain close to the winery.
Moraine is a beautiful match for couples who imagine an Okanagan wedding without an enormous ballroom.
Vines, lake views, good food, local wine and the people you love most gathered together as the sun begins to disappear behind the valley.
Sometimes that is all the decorating a wedding really needs.
