WHY RAVINE

Grown, Cooked and Poured on one Estate.

For more than 159 years, one family has farmed this land in St. Davids. Today the same estate grows the grapes, makes the wine, cooks the dinner and hosts the celebration. When you marry at Ravine, nothing is outsourced to someone you've never met.

The Land

Thirty-four acres on the St. Davids Bench, with the escarpment behind you and the vines running to the treeline. Say your vows in the vineyard, take your photos in the rows, and let the light at the end of the day do the rest.
Plated seasonal course from the Ravine estate kitchen

The Kitchen

Led by Michelin trained Executive Chef John Vetere, cooked from our estate garden and Niagara's best growers. Bread and pastry come from our own bakery. Every menu changes with the season, and you taste it before you commit.

The Cellar

The wine on your table was grown in the vineyard outside the window and made in our cellar. Our team pairs it to your menu, from the first sparkling toast to the last glass of the night.

GOOD TO KNOW

Questions couples ask us

How many guests can Ravine host?

Anywhere from 20 to 250. Intimate weddings of up to 40 dine in the Barrel Cellar, surrounded by the barrels. Larger weddings of up to 250 take the Event Centre, with floor-to-ceiling vineyard views and a covered terrace. We'll recommend the right room for your guest count when you visit.

What happens if it rains?

Every outdoor ceremony has a backup under our covered terrace, held for your date. We watch the forecast with you and make the call together one hour before your ceremony. Most couples tell us afterwards their guests never noticed the switch.

Are Ravine wines included?

Estate wine and open bar packages start at $70 per person, including signature cocktails, poured by our team and paired to your menu. Every wine we pour is grown and made here on the estate.

Can you accommodate dietary needs?

Yes. Our chefs cook for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and other dietary needs every week. Share your guests' needs when you finalise your menu and we'll plan around them. For serious allergies, we'll talk you through exactly how our kitchen handles them.

Can we bring our own caterer or vendors?

Food, wine and bar are handled by our team, because that's the heart of a Ravine wedding. Your photographer, florist, music and décor are your choice. We're happy to share the local vendors who know the estate well.

What time does the night end?

Last call in the Event Centre is 1am, so there's no rush to wrap up after speeches.

Do you host winter weddings?

Yes, and they're some of our favourites. The Barrel Cellar by candlelight and the Event Centre looking out over the vines in snow make for a very different day. Winter dates also have more availability.

How far ahead should we book?

Saturdays from May to October typically book 12 to 18 months out. Fridays, Sundays and winter dates are more flexible. If you have a date in mind, ask us early.

Are there hotels nearby?

Yes. Woodbourne Inn, White Oaks Resort and South Landing Inn are all a few minutes away, and Old Town Niagara-on-the-Lake is a short drive. Shuttle services run from town, and parking on the estate is free for your guests.

Can we host other wedding weekend events here?

Yes. Couples host rehearsal dinners, welcome receptions and next-day gatherings across the estate, from our restaurant to a private tasting in the Barrel Cellar. We can plan the whole weekend with you.

Is the estate accessible?

Yes. The Event Centre, terrace and main guest areas are wheelchair accessible. If you have guests with specific mobility needs, let us know and we'll plan their day around them.

Still have a question? We're happy to talk it through.
