This actually IS Paradise!
When we were planning our destination wedding, we never imagined we would come across a venue like this. We knew we wanted something we couldn't get in Chicago, but this was amazing. The view, alone, is breathtaking. But the layout and staff were the icing on the cake. Martha was so incredible to work with and made for easy and simple planning. We were able to try the wine before selecting and we were so pleased with everything we selected. Our guests were so amazed at how beautiful everything was. We were all able to enjoy the scenery of the day, the sunset, and the glory of the lights at night. It doesn't get much better than this!!
Thank you Paradise Ridge for a beautiful wedding!

Absolutely Gorgeous

I truly believe that my husband and I had the perfect wedding reception at Paradise Ridge Winery. We looked at so many venues and Paradise Ridge was literally the LAST one, as it is somewhat of a hidden gem. But you know what they say—save the best for last. Once we saw the upstairs/downstairs layout, new amenities, and GORGEOUS views, we were hooked.

Paradise Ridge was worth every penny. Paradise Ridge’s staff (shoutout to Jasmine and Colleen!) were wonderfully communicative and easy to work with. One of my favorite parts of our wedding preparations was getting to go there with my then fiancé and family to do a wine tasting to decide which wines we wanted to serve at the wedding.

For the actual wedding, all the space at the venue may be organized. First, we had a photoshoot at some of the beautiful sculptures on the property. Then, we set up our “hor d’oeuvres” hour on the balcony so guests could enjoy the wonderful view of the vineyards. We moved inside to the upstairs floor for dinner and then downstairs for dancing. There are comfy chairs seated outside the downstairs area where many of our guests enjoyed taking a break to sip wine and eat cake.

Our pictures from our reception are something I will treasure forever. The “golden hour” photographs at Paradise Ridge are unparalleled and many of our guests said they too loved taking pictures because how often do you get to look this good?!

In sum, I unequivocally recommend Paradise Ridge Winery for your venue.

Everything about Paradise Ridge was perfect! The view overlooking the vineyard and the city was absolutely breathtaking. Our guests cannot stop talking about how beautiful it was. We also had the most gorgeous sunset during our cocktail hour that everyone really enjoyed! This was a destination wedding, and Martha helped tremendously with her list of recommended vendors and other advice throughout our planning process. Also, the bartenders and staff were super friendly and accommodating. We highly recommend Paradise Ridge as a wedding venue--it'll be the best decision you make!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
