Recently, we stumbled upon this tweet from a local bride-to-be:

A California-style vineyard wedding in Cincinnati? Challenge (indirectly) accepted! @daynadeleon’s request motivated us to track down some of the best vineyards right here at home:
1. Vinoklet Winery
Vinoklet’s scenic 30-acre property is the ideal backdrop for some dreamy wedding photos. This quaint winery has the splendor of a California vineyard without the expensive plane tickets. If award-winning wines and a beautiful terrace is the scene you’re looking for on your big day, Vinoklet is the place to go. 11069 Colerain Ave., Cincinnati, Ohio 45252
2. Elk Creek Vineyards
Known as the largest winery in the Commonwealth of Kentucky, Elk Creek offers more than just fancy tipples. Aside from its rolling hills of vines and selection of red and white varietals, Elk Creek plays host to an art gallery, café, hunt club, bed and breakfast, and more. Elk Creek brings top-flight wines with a rustic Kentuckian twist—a must for anyone looking for an outdoorsy, old-fashioned wedding. Crestview Hills Town Center, 2837 Town Center Boulevard, Crestview Hills, Kentucky 41017
3. Valley Vineyards
Though they will not host weddings, this classic winery is perfect for an intimate reception or engagement party. The Schuchter family, owners of Valley Vineyards, started brewing their own craft beer last year, adding more selection to the already varied collection of libations. Valley Vineyards offers a stunning landscape and nearly 125 acres of land with 80-some acres of grapes. 2276 US-22, Morrow, Ohio 45152
Coming soon in May:
Harmony Hill Winery
Harmony Hill is a 70-acre plot of sustainable land that is home to a bucolic stable-turned-winery. This rustic property inspires nature-loving couples that love a good glass of award-winning wine. If you’re looking for a smaller wedding setting, consider taking vows under the recently constructed wedding pergola located directly beside the vineyard. 2534 Swings Corner Point Isabel Rd., Bethel, Ohio 45106
