The tents provide a delightful space for cocktail hours, intimate bridal party gatherings, or even a reception lounge area.
Patio Perfection with Heaters & Fire Pits Our outdoor patio, adorned with string lights, becomes a magical retreat with the addition of heaters and fire pits. Guests can gather around the fire, sipping warm drinks and enjoying the crisp winter air. This outdoor setup not only adds charm to your wedding but also allows for stunning evening photos under the twinkling lights.
Perfect Timing for a December Wedding
Golden Hour Photos One of the best aspects of a December wedding is the early sunset, which happens around 5pm. This timing is perfect for capturing the gorgeous golden hour in your wedding photos. We recommend a ceremony start time of 4pm, followed by a cocktail hour from 4:30pm-5:30pm, allowing you and your photographer to make the most of the beautiful lighting. Then, enjoy dinner and dancing, wrapping up the evening in a delightful and timely manner.
Warm and Cozy Touches
Cozy Blankets and Warm Drinks Enhance the comfort and warmth of your wedding with cozy themed blankets for your guests. Whether they bring their own or opt for our plush Potomac Point Winery blankets, these thoughtful touches will keep everyone snug, especially on the patio. Our favorite winter tradition is serving Grog, our delectable warm mulled wine, which is perfect for a winter celebration. Additionally, consider adding a hot cocoa bar or warm apple cider to your drink menu for a delightful and seasonal touch.
Enchanting Holiday Decorations
Festive Décor Throughout the Winery in December, Potomac Point Winery is beautifully decorated with added lights and festive touches throughout the venue. This includes a portion of the vineyard visible from the ballroom, creating a stunning and festive backdrop for your wedding. The holiday decorations add an extra layer of magic and charm to your special day, making it feel truly special and unique.
