Vineyards make amazing wedding venues because they have great bones for outdoor ceremonies and have built-in activities like wine tasting and exploring the grounds. We can't decide which part of this luxe vineyard wedding is our favorite. It's a close tie between the literal ice wine bar and the firework send-off. When you're choosing your venue, it's important to consider what kind of experience you want your guests to have. This couple wanted an interactive experience where their guests could be immersed in the moment and spend quality time catching up or getting to know each other, and that's exactly what they got!
Muse Event Co. planned this classic vineyard wedding at Peller Estates and brought all of the details together beautifully! From the gorgeous floral ceremony arch to the hanging floral installations at the reception, Rachel A. Clingen truly outdid themselves. These airy photos by 515 Photo Co. capture all of the beautiful candid moments from getting ready shots to the firework finale.

Yenny & Clayton said 'I do' in wine country at Peller Estates in Niagara-On-The-Lake in a glamorous and romantic ceremony. The elegant and stylish affair was planned & designed by Baye Kler of MUSE Event Co. who meticulously managed every detail of the day from start to finish. Yenny married Clayton in a Galia Lahav curve-hugging dress with a sweetheart neckline. She had two different looks, off-the-shoulder gloved sleeves for the ceremony, and then straps for the reception.
Yenny wanted to look and feel like herself and was thrilled with how makeup artist & hairstylist Allyssa Helm achieved the soft yet glamorous look. Artist Stephanie Anne illustrated the couple as they tied the knot and continued fashion illustrations of the guests as they enjoyed canapés and the couple's signature drink, “The Mr. and Mrs. Smith”, a Watermelon Paloma. Paper & Poste designed the couple's invitations which featured gold foil letterpress and custom artwork of the beautiful Peller Estates housed in a vellum enclosure with silk ribbon and custom wax seals.
Paper & Poste's stunning artwork of the vineyard was carried throughout the day on the ceremony program and table numbers. The couple's dinner reception and dancing took place under a clear-top tent from Premier Event Tent Rentals with draping by Eventure Design. Rachel A. Clingen designed the gorgeous florals which were hues of cream, nude and blush along with multiple trees to bring the outside into their tent. The stunning custom cake was designed by Sharleen at Sweet Celebrations, the intricate beading of Yenny's gorgeous Galia Lahav gown served as inspiration. Guests enjoyed dancing to an incredible performance by the Sole Power band.
As dinner and dancing concluded, guests were invited to Peller's lawn where they watched the most spectacular fireworks display put on by Garden City Fireworks. The couple were sent off with sparklers by all of their guests to their after party in the Peller Estates barrel cellar where they were surrounded by 300 wine barrels! There was an ice wine bar in a sub-zero degree igloo, which served as the perfect retreat for a break from the dance floor. As one guest was leaving, she said “this is the best wedding I’ve ever been to, and ever will be to!”. Yenny and Clayton met playing beach volleyball in Toronto and have been inseparable ever since. Clayton proposed on a yacht in Costa Rica at sunset after a magical day of whale watching.
