Ocala Winery & Orchards

Ocala Winery gives a Port Perry wedding the rustic romance of a vineyard and orchard rooted in more than a century of agricultural history. Set across 55 acres of peaceful valley, the property brings together a century-old board-and-beam winery, a spacious barn, vineyard rows and orchard scenery.

Three event spaces give couples options for celebrations, with the Winery and Durham Room suited to intimate weddings of up to 75 guests. Ceremonies can also move outdoors among the vineyard and orchard, where the landscape provides a naturally beautiful setting without needing to be overworked.

There is something timeless about walking between vines and fruit trees after saying your vows. The old timber, open valley and rows of growing things make the day feel grounded, warm and wonderfully unhurried.

Then the western sky begins to soften, guests gather with glasses in hand and the old winery takes on a golden evening glow, carrying the celebration from countryside calm into a night full of laughter and music.
