Cuisine
No wedding is complete without the very best food, drink, and service possible.
In addition to being a premium winery, we also deliver a remarkable culinary experience. At District Winery, your wedding menu is crafted in-house by our expert culinary team, led by Executive Chef Christian Fischhuber. Chef Fischhuber brings a wealth of culinary experience to your day, from his time working at Michelin-starred restaurants in Austria, to overseeing fine-dining restaurants in California, to opening restaurants in New York & London. This international experience has helped him develop his signature cooking style, utilizing classic European technique with comfort and modern creativity in mind.
We offer both family-style and plated dinner service. Our refined wedding menus highlight seasonal ingredients to provide you and your guests with a memorable dining experience. In addition to our standard offerings, wedding couples also have the option to include signature cocktails, a raw bar, late-night stations, wine bottle favors, and more.
We take great pride in our culinary offerings, so we give all District Winery wedding couples the opportunity to experience our cuisine before finalizing their wedding menu.

After graduating from Johnson & Wales University with a degree in Hospitality Management, and a minor in International Operations Management, I started my career working in various positions in hotels across the country. My true passion has always been helping people create fun and memorable experiences.
I started working at District Winery in October of 2019, and was immediately blown away by the venue. What I love most about working events here is the on-site support we give to our clients. Many venues simply give you a space
and a date to host events, but here at District Winery we have a hands on approach that I feel has an incredible impact on our clients. People who host events with us know that they have a trained professional to help guide them through the planning process and assist them on the day-of.
