A vineyard is a beautiful venue for a wedding. It offers a private, romantic location for your wedding that is different from the typical church and reception hall. Vineyards also offer a variety of settings, from rustic indoor areas, to airy decks, and of course, the lush vines of the vineyard itself. Vineyard weddings also offer you a theme as well. Embrace the look and feel of the vineyard for a beautiful wedding location.

1. Grapevine Invitations

   • Incorporate your vineyard wedding theme into your invitations. Grapevines can be elegant and sophisticated if printed or embossed around the edge of the invitations. For a simpler look, use a soft colored ink or just a shinier ink in the same color to print the grapevine. For a more rustic look, use beige colored paper with gold ink to print the vine. And if you want to add a little color to your invitation, use a dark purple or burgundy color, drawing inspiration from the color of red wine.

   Wine Bottle Centerpieces

   • Wine bottle centerpieces are not only soft on the wallet, but they are also good for the environment as well. During the months before your wedding, save all of the wine bottles you drink at home, and also ask to take empty bottles home from friends' parties as well. After you have collected enough bottles for each table, remove the labels and all of the leftover glue and paper. Use the wine bottles like a vase, placing flowers or decorative branches inside. If you'd prefer a candlelit effect, purchase candles that look line wine corks and place them in the top of each bottle. If you can't decide, use candle wine bottles on some tables, and flowers on the others. Wine cork candles can be found online at websites such as Candles4Less.com or at stores such as Target.

   Wine Cork Place Cards

   • Wine cork place cards are also beneficial for your budget, and an effective way to recycle. Similar to the wine bottle centerpieces, save wine corks during the months before your wedding, and ask friends to do the same. You'll need enough corks for each guest. Simply shave off a small amount of the bottom of the corks so, when placed vertically, they don't roll away. Then cut a slit in the top of the cork and slide your place card in the slit. You'll have an easy place card holder that will look great at each place setting.

   Mini Wine Bottles

   • There are a variety of favors that can be used at a vineyard, but mini wine bottles are favors that your guests are not likely to forget. Place a miniature bottle of wine at each table setting. You can have wine labels for the bottles specially printed with your name and wedding date on them. The guests will be sure to grab theirs as they head out the door, but if they don't, you won't mind keeping the leftovers.
