With its never-ending mountains and its many attractions, the Eastern Township region is THE, perfectly breathtaking, wedding destination in any season! Located in the four corners of the Townships, here are eight vineyards where you can plan your dream celebration.

Celebrate your love beneath the grand tent of the Domaine des Côtes d’Ardoise! Set in the heart of nature, the site stands out with its beautiful gardens, its heritage buildings and its Tout Art exhibit. All these elements undeniably add a beautiful charm to this vineyard!

Vignoble de la Bauge is one of the oldest vineyards of the Townships and is the choice venue for a magical wedding. In addition to its country landscape, the vineyard’s charm is due without a doubt to its unique and well-kept hundred-year-old barn.
The Vignoble de la Bauge offers you the opportunity to get married amidst the vineyards and host your reception in the old barn.

L’Orpailleur vineyard proposes an outdoor ceremony surrounded by vines and a serene decor. You will take advantage of this enchanting venue, leaving with your head filled with unforgettable moments and your cameras with magnificent pictures!
Adding to the remarkable environment of the vineyard, you will benefit from the terroir products offered by a personalized catering service. The Tire-Bouchon catering service is on site and will welcome you to the warm ambiance of their reception hall.

Located at just 5 minutes from downtown Sherbrooke, the Halte des Pèlerins vineyard offers you an exceptional reception hall. The setting will amaze you with its enchanting forest, nestled high above the vineyard and its amphitheatre with its incredible view.
For a perfect wedding combining nature, colours and charm, the Halte des Pèlerins has all the tools for organizing a dream event. Indeed, their vast domain offers several magnificent areas for your ceremony, a hall and a big tent for your reception.

For a ceremony and reception in the heart of nature, the two covered terraces of Domaine du Ridge are the ideal venue to welcome your guests. As you head to the vineyard, right away you’ll be charmed by the route leading you there, with its mature trees escorting you all the way; and once you’ve arrived, the rustic appeal of the property will completely win you over!
You can rent tents to accommodate more guests.

For a stress-free wedding, opt for Le Cep d’argent vineyard where they also offer the services of an event coordinator. With its platform set between rows of vines overlooking Lake Magog, and its unique champagne experience in all of Quebec, you can be sure the day will truly be unforgettable.

For a wedding with European flair, your choice stops at Château Ste-Agnès. With its numerous romantic features such as gardens, heart-shaped ponds, and even a Romanesque chapel, your wedding will be worthy of a fairy tale. Whether you prefer an intimate or a big celebration, the beauty of the venue will make this day even more special.
Please note that Château Ste-Agnès can accommodate up to 215 guests provided that the couple installs a marquee on the premises for their reception dinner. Additionally, although no catering service is available on-site, recommendations for suppliers can be provided.

The Vignoble Gagliano invites you to exchange your vows on its welcoming terrace, offering breathtaking views of the vineyards. Immerse yourself in the enchanting atmosphere where the essence of Little Italy reigns, and let yourself be captivated by this enchanting setting to celebrate your union.
