Domaine Perrault Winery is a wedding venue located in Ottawa, Ontario, situated on a vineyard. This beautiful and bucolic property boasts expansive outdoors, charming interiors, and a high level of convenient service. An eye-catching place to say “I do”, it benefits from an authentic vineyard so that you can marry your partner in a fairytale location.
Facilities and Capacity
Owing to its 500 acres of space and multifaceted nature, Domaine Perrault Winery would be suitable for a wide range of celebrations. As such, it can accommodate occasions of between 30 and 200 people, so it would be ideal for either intimate or moderately sized gatherings. Outdoors, the happy couple can join together with their nearest and dearest to celebrate the all-important ceremony. In an open green space, or beneath the shade of a tall tree, the to-be-weds can exchange vows and make their union official. An arbor can be set up, while chairs can be arranged so that the wedding party has somewhere comfortable to take in the milestone moment. Once the couple has been declared as officially married, they can make their way through confetti and applause towards the reception space as everyone joins them afterward. Hay bales can be set up for guests to sit on as they mix and mingle, while cocktail tables and chairs can also be put in place here and there for al fresco bites or adult beverages. Of course, a large tent provides somewhere elegant and sheltered from the elements. Here, everyone can gather at round tables and brilliant white chairs as they get ready to treat their taste buds. They also provide room for dancing and partying the night away.
Services Offered
Conveniently, Domaine Perrault Winery offers a dedicated event coordination service for couples to make use of. These expert professionals can work alongside their clients to ensure that the once-in-a-lifetime event runs as smoothly as the couple needs it to. They strive to do justice to each rehearsal dinner, engagement get-together, bridal shower, ceremony, and reception they help organize. Other features of this provincial location include get-ready rooms, a willingness to work with outside vendors, bar staff, select event rentals, and more.
History
Shortly before the turn of the millennium, Domaine Perrault Winery came into existence when a man named Denis began growing his own grapes. What began as a single acre eventually grew to five acres of vineyard, and today the property produces a variety of red and white wines. Indeed, couples who book this as their dream wedding venue can savour the specialty wines that are cultivated here.

From the very start Isabel and the rest of the Domaine Perrault team have been extremely and genuinely helpful in every part of wedding planning. Isabel went above and beyond to make sure Kyle and I had the best wedding day we could possibly imagine and she took on roles that were not specifically in her job requirement because she is an amazing human with the kindest heart. The whole team was there the day of from morning until night to help! Even after a tornado a week before the wedding and worrying about their home, second home and work place, the Domaine Perrault staff made sure that I didn't worry about anything and made sure that their beautiful Winery was exquisite! Everything from the florals, to the table settings were stunning. We purchased the decor package and it was the best thing we did! Isabel put her heart and soul into the decor for our wedding making the atmosphere so whimsical and breathtakingly beautiful. I will always look back on my wedding day with the best memories and biggest smiles and that is due to the extraordinary work done by Isabel and the rest of the Domaine Perrault team! We will be back for many wine tastings and future events, as well as I will be 100% recommending Domaine Perrault to any and every future bride's I meet!

Dream Wedding Venue
Not long after getting engaged, my fiancé and I found Domaine Perrault and started dreaming up everything we could want at an outdoor vineyard wedding venue.
Domaine Perrault went above and beyond what we could have imagined! We got married on September 18, 2021, and for the 12 months leading up we worked with professional staff, had new ideas or changes accommodated, had the most stress-free set up on the actual wedding day and everyone enjoyed the wine selection!
There are also so many locations to have photos taken, which creates so many backdrops for gorgeous photos. Our photographer could not believe all the photo locations we had to choose from.
If you are thinking of a vineyard wedding just a short drive out of the city, I would highly recommend visiting Domaine Perrault to speak with Isabel and allowing her the opportunity to help your vision come to life!

Most magical wedding
This was the absolute BEST venue to host our wedding. Due to COVID we had to change our date twice and Isabel with her team made it work.
We were able to host our wedding in August 2021 and feel at home with our guest.
Isabel's team and the Perreault family are amazing hosts and will help you create the event you've always dreamed of. Not to mention the amazing natural decor and amenities.
They are flexible, accommodating and ready to help for every aspect of the planning. All of their recommendations from the food, the DJ, the rentals were spot on and it all came together perfectly.
Isabel was available to us for the set up and the tear down.
It was a stress free venue, they felt like family. I highly recommend.
We had a magical day.

The Wedding of our Dreams
Our wedding at DP was everything we ever hoped for. The event coordinator, staff and owners are incredible, easy going, friendly, helpful and generous! The grounds and tent were very well maintained. From the moment we reserved our special date to the days following our wedding, we were treated like family. There’s no doubt we will be returning to Domaine Perrault yearly to celebrate our wedding anniversary. It will always hold a very special place in our hearts.

Perfect Venue
I highly recommend Domaine Perrault as a wedding venue. I had the absolute pleasure to work with their event coordinator Isabel to help me bring my perfect day to life. We had to postpone our wedding due to Covid and Isabel was so accommodating and moved our date without giving me any stress about it or adding any additional charges. She was so responsive to my MANY emails and was always available for phone calls. She was so sweet to work with and made the whole planning process to easy. It was a stress relief knowing she was there the day before and day of to make sure everything ran smoothly. I can’t thank her enough for all her efforts and I couldn’t have done it without her.
The venue itself is a perfect spot and covid friendly seeing as the reception is held under a large tent with a tiled floor plus we loved that we didn’t have to drive elsewhere for the ceremony as they have a beautiful wood arbour to get married under. We purchased the decor package and it was perfect and so nice to have their staff set everything up and take everything down the following day. We also had access to the venue the day before the event to do add any additional decorating we wanted. The staff was all so kind and added to the excitement of the day. Unlike many venues, you’re allowed to hire your own vendors (caterer, DJ, etc.) which is cost effective compared to other venues we looked into. All our guests were blown away by the beautiful spot and the wine is delicious! It’s great to know we can go back for future anniversaries or visits. Thank you so much Domaine Perrault!

The perfect venue!
We got married at Domaine Perrault in September 2019, and couldn’t be happier that we chose this venue. Our first time there was for a wine tasting, where we fell in love with the property and staff, and left feeling more like part of the family than guests (a feeling that continues to this day!) It made trusting this venue with our special day exceptionally easy. The owner, Denis, was so accommodating, and we honestly had such a great time planning with the wedding coordinator Isabel. They had great recommendations, were open to all of our ideas, and the entire staff really went above and beyond to make our big day feel so special! This place has become more than just our wedding venue, but is somewhere that we frequently return to now. The wine itself was also a massive hit, and many of our guests picked up extra bottles to take home with them afterwards! We would highly recommend this venue for a beautiful event, or just a relaxing glass of wine on the beautiful property.

Outstanding venue and staff
The property of this venue is absolutely gorgeous: large willow trees, a wall of hydrangeas, barn, a beautifully decorated tent, grapevines, string lights, and country fields. With all the gorgeous areas of the property, there were diverse indoor and outdoor options where we had the choice to our ceremony with many different photoshoot options. It was very rare finding a venue where we had so much flexibility with everything. Usually other venues that we visited kick you out at a certain time on the wedding night or you can't access it before/after the wedding so it felt like Domaine was less of a tight money-making business and more of a welcoming family-operated venue just happy to have us. They even welcomed us to the property a couple of times before the wedding on days they were closed to help us test out equipment and drop random things off.
Not only are their wines delicious, but they also offered flexible bar options with competitive prices. We were really pleased with the assortment of local craft beer options that they also provided and the servers were so attentive!
The whole staff, the owner, and even their dog, felt like family! They were absolutely incredible and were eager to fulfil our dreams from the very start. Isabel was so responsive, keen on saying yes to all of our requests, and provided excellent recommendations all with a caring and positive atitude. They did everything they could to accommodate everything we envisioned, even when we changed our minds on things a couple of times. Isabel even went out of her way to review our catering and rental invoices as a second pair of eyes to ensure that we weren't missing anything. Huge thank you to Isabel and everyone at Domaine Perrault for making our wedding so special

Perfection! Everything we Hoped for.
My husband and I started our planning journey almost two years before our day and knew that we would love to have our wedding at a vineyard. We visited Domaine Perrault in January 2022, it was a very cold winter day and though everything was snow covered, we knew it was the perfect place for us.
From the start, we felt welcomed, supported, and confident that our day was going to be perfect, and it was. Domaine Perrault's venue coordinator Isabel was with us every step of the way and she was able to guide us to ensure our vision came to life. She is so incredibly passionate about what she does and really took care of, well, almost everything!!!!
Domaine Perrault is gorgeous! There are so many spaces to use for your ceremony, photos, and cocktail hour. We were able to use both the Sunroom and the Barrel room to get ready in. The ceremony was had in between the vines which was so dreamy and our cocktail hour was set up in the tasting room and outdoor patio. The reception was under their beautiful tent which features Edison lights, vines, trees, a bar, and a dedicated space for the DJ. We enjoyed a fire outside in the evening and our guests loved how elegant and relaxed the venue felt.
We really cannot express our gratitude enough to have been able to have our wedding at such a wonderful Vineyard! It really was everything we wanted and more and would recommend getting married at this romantic outdoor venue.
