Niagara Wedding Venue Guide & Decor Inspiration
A Niagara vineyard venue perfect for intimate celebrations and microweddings
Peninsula Ridge Winery is one of those Niagara venues that feels quietly special the moment you arrive. Surrounded by vineyards and perched along the escarpment, it offers a relaxed elegance that’s especially well suited to microweddings and intimate vineyard weddings. For couples who value great food, beautiful scenery, and a more personal guest experience, Peninsula Ridge is a lovely choice.
Why Peninsula Ridge is Ideal for Microweddings
This winery naturally lends itself to smaller weddings where connection and atmosphere take priority. The scale of the spaces encourages a sense of togetherness, making it easier for couples to focus on meaningful details rather than filling a large room. It’s an ideal venue for couples planning a Niagara microwedding that feels intentional, warm, and unhurried.
Ceremony Spaces
Ceremonies at Peninsula Ridge typically take place on a grassy area near the restaurant, with vineyards stretching out nearby. The setting feels open and serene, allowing the natural landscape to do much of the visual work. With minimal décor, this space already feels romantic — a few thoughtful design elements can elevate it without distracting from the views.
One feature couples especially appreciate is the covered patio, which serves as a beautiful rain backup option. Having a sheltered ceremony space on-site is a wonderful advantage at a winery, allowing couples to keep their plans intact while still feeling connected to the outdoor surroundings, even if the weather doesn’t cooperate.
Cocktail Hour
One of the standout features of Peninsula Ridge is its wrap-around veranda and patio, which works beautifully for cocktail hour. Guests can move easily from the ceremony to this space, enjoying fresh air, vineyard views, and a relaxed flow. The veranda creates natural gathering pockets, making it perfect for mingling, signature cocktails, and candid moments.
Reception Space
The Coach House is a rustic, character-filled space with exposed wood beams and wood-paneled interiors. It’s especially well suited to intimate receptions and microweddings, where the warmth of the room adds to the experience.
This space shines with softer design choices — linens, layered textures, and warm lighting help balance the richness of the wood while keeping the overall look refined and welcoming.
Design & Decor Inspiration
Peninsula Ridge already has a strong sense of place, so our approach here is always about enhancing what’s already beautiful rather than overpowering it.
Design elements that work particularly well at this venue include:
Chiffon table runners to add layers, texture and add movement
Neutral or earthy palettes that echo the vineyard surroundings and complement the wood in the space
Low, intentional centrepieces that encourage conversation
Subtle ceremony accents that frame the view without blocking it
Every choice is made with flow, comfort, and cohesion in mind.
Venue-Specific Rentals
While many of our standard décor pieces look beautiful throughout Peninsula Ridge, there is one venue-specific enhancement we especially love here: ceiling draping in the Coach House.
The Coach House’s warm wood beams create a rustic foundation, and ceiling draping allows us to gently soften the space and add visual interest overhead. Rather than covering the room, the draping is used thoughtfully — creating movement, depth, and a more intimate atmosphere while still letting the character of the venue shine through.
It’s an elegant way to elevate the reception space for couples who want their microwedding to feel cozy, intentional, and quietly refined.
A Thoughtful Setting for Niagara Winery Weddings
Peninsula Ridge Winery is a wonderful option for couples seeking a Niagara winery wedding with an intimate feel. Between the vineyard backdrop, cozy reception space, and relaxed veranda, it offers a setting that feels both elevated and approachable — ideal for couples who want their day to feel personal, not performative.
