Waterfire Vineyards is a wedding venue located in Kewadin, Michigan. Nestled on 26 acres of pristine vineyard in Northwest Michigan, the vineyard offers an intimate escape where your love story can unfold against sweeping views of Torch Lake.
Facilities and Capacity
WaterFire Vineyards specializes in intimate gatherings that feel personal and thoughtful. A secluded retreat, it sits perched atop a ridge, just a half-mile walk to the lake and five minutes from Lake Michigan beaches. As the Midwest's first Certified Sustainable vineyard, it creates exceptional wines using sustainable practices that protect the landscape and honor the Great Lakes region. The venue features a covered outdoor setting perfect for ceremonies, receptions, and elopements. Your guests will enjoy the vineyard's small, intimate tasting room and winding trails throughout the 20-acre property. Sweeping vineyard views create a stunning backdrop for your vows and photos.
Services Offered
On the big day itself, up to 100 of your loved ones can watch you two walk the aisle, say "I do," then stroll the property for a cocktail hour before heading to the reception. The designated hilltop reception site overlooks the vines and natural fields, creating a perfect backdrop for a memorable night of dining, dancing, and revelry.
There are two separate wedding packages available with Waterfire Vineyards:
If you're planning an intimate celebration, the Elopement option accommodates up to 25 of your nearest and dearest. Providing a florist, photographer, grazing table and cake, we aim to tackle most of the tasks for your big day!
The Classic package offers space for up to 100 guests. With flexible options to build out your dream day couples can choose ceremony, reception, and bar packages. The bar package is provided through the venue, which feature delicious estate-grown wines.
With either packages you choose, you'll work with an on-site coordinator to ensure all your needs for the big day are met.

Honestly, the best winery in Northern, if not all, of Michigan! Stopped in this past Saturday, right after a bus group was finishing up, and had the two owners assist us with our flights, so they were extremely knowledgeable about their wines. ...
The best part was they both kept asking us what we thought of each wine we tried. They were genuinely looking for our opinions. Every wine was 5/5 and the salmon spread with crackers was the cherry on top! The place has a quaint charm to it. We'll be back every time we're nearby!
