At Ella's Vineyard, we give couples more time to settle in, celebrate, and enjoy the people around them. Our wedding experience is centered around a weekend stay at the vineyard estate, with the farmhouse, oak tree ceremony site, and rustic barn all part of the experience. If you're planning a wedding in Paso Robles wine country and want more than a single evening to celebrate, this is worth understanding before you tour anywhere else.

Ella's Vineyard in Paso Robles offers weekend weddings built around a two-night farmhouse stay sleeping up to 14 guests, with ceremonies for up to 200 guests held beneath a centuries-old oak tree or at the estate's highest point, followed by celebration in a rustic barn with a photo booth. An open catering vendor policy welcomes outside vendors, a licensed bartender is required for beer, wine, and two signature cocktails, and while venue manager Anna keeps the property running smoothly, couples need their own wedding planner for day-of coordination.

A Full Weekend Wedding Experience in Paso Robles Wine Country

We sit on a hilltop estate above the vines, and everything about how we book weddings is built around giving you time. Not just a ceremony slot. Time to actually be present with the people you love.

The Weekend Starts at the Farmhouse

Your wedding includes two nights in our farmhouse, a 3,000 square foot house that sleeps up to fourteen guests. There's a wraparound porch where you can carry your coffee out and watch the sun come up over rolling hills and rows of Italian vines. Staying on site gives you more time to settle in, enjoy the property, and be present with the people sharing the weekend with you. You're not checking into a hotel the morning of your wedding and hoping traffic cooperates. You're already there.

Vows Beneath a Centuries-Old Oak

Ceremonies happen either under our 200-year-old oak tree or from the highest point of the estate, looking out over the surrounding vineyards. We host ceremonies for up to 200 guests, giving couples flexibility to plan anything from a smaller gathering to a larger celebration. Wooden benches are included, so setup for the ceremony itself is one less thing on your list.

Celebrating in the Barn

Once vows are said, celebration moves into our rustic barn, which becomes the space for dinner and dancing. Beer and wine service ends at 9:30 p.m., and two signature cocktails are permitted during the four-hour event period. A licensed bartender is required. A photo booth in the barn is includedn for guests who want a keepsake from the night, and we've got restrooms in multiple locations so no one is hunting across the property to find one.

Support That Starts Before the Weekend and Doesn't Stop

Anna, our venue manager, brings more than ten years of professional experience to every event she manages. We run an open vendor policy and allow outside catering, so you can bring in the photographer, florist, and caterer that fit your vision instead of choosing from a locked list. Our team also supports vendors throughout the event, helping create a smoother experience for everyone involved.
