Tasting room elopement
We had a last-minute, small wedding in Yakima (due to a family member's terminal illness). As you can imagine, planning a second wedding (a few months. before our celebration in Denver), on a tight timeline halfway across the country, was beyond stressful!
Lucky for us, we selected Gilbert as our venue. Their tasting room was cozy, their grounds were gorgeous, and their team was so kind. We couldn't recommend them more.

Hands down one of the best wedding venues in Central Washington. This place is barely 10 minutes outside of Yakima but feels like it's in remote wine country (which for transport, hotels, setup, etc. how can you beat that?) We loved how unique Gilbert Cellars Winery was in comparison to other venues in the area. When you rent the venue, you have access to multiple event spaces (amphitheater, lawn, cellar patio, big rustic indoor spaces) so you can truly customize it to fit your wedding/event dreams! The vineyards, lavender fields, big wine barrels, and built-in rustic touches were gorgeous without needing much decorative effort from us. Another bonus- these people make great wine!

I wouldn't have wanted to have my wedding anywhere else. Gilbert Cellars Winery is absolutely gorgeous. My husband and I had our wedding here on July 8th, 2017. The lavender fields were in full bloom at this time, which made a great backdrop for our first look and pictures. We worked with Via Paxton at Gilbert Cellars Winery- She was extremely helpful, responsive, and worked with our schedule as much as she could. One thing I loved about Gilbert Cellars Winery is that we were able to choose from 3 different location to have our ceremony (lawn, cave/patio, amphitheater). My husband and I decided to do our ceremony on the lawn. It was perfect!! Gilbert Cellars Winery goes above and beyond :)
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
