I cannot explain how amazing Sand Castle Winery was for our 10/02/2020 wedding! We originally planned our reception at a country club but due to COVID, we needed an outdoor venue. ...
Within 2 months, Dean and the vendors (Farmer's Keep & Bucks Mont Party Rental) planned the most magical day of our lives. I couldn't recommend Sand Castle more to future couples!! The pictures are proof themselves of how romantic and serene the winery is. Perfect for a wedding!
The venue is beautiful and the entire staff, including Events Director Dean, made sure our day was perfect and went smoothly. They were incredibly warm and helpful throughout the p...
rocess, and went out of their way to ensure our day was perfect. The grounds provided the most beautiful backdrop for our photos. The bridal suite is newly renovated and a wonderful private space for getting ready. We loved the winery before, and getting married there only made us love it more. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a simple yet elegant space for their wedding!
Everything I could have asked for!
We couldn't have chosen a more perfect venue for our wedding! Erin, the event coordinator, was responsive and so easy to work with. If you're looking to have a winery wedding, this...
is the best place to do it!
When we first saw Sand Castle Winery, we knew it was exactly where we wanted our reception to be for our June wedding. It was peaceful and majestic overlooking the Delaware River a...
nd surrounded by extraordinary vines. It was so convenient working with Erin at Sand Castle and Rae at Open Aire because they were both so knowledgeable in what they did. We felt confident with all of the rental items provided by Open Aire Affairs. The tent was sturdy and attached to the building so it allowed us to have cocktail hour in the castle and our 110 person reception under the tent. We wanted a rustic chic wedding that was simple and focused more on God’s country so we were able to rent bistro lighting that hung above, white chairs and pine rectangular tables for our guests, a wine barrel to hold the cake, and all the dishware needed to make our look complete. It was also very important for us to have a large dance floor because our family loves to dance and have a good time and that was all included with the tent. And of course, the most important part of having a winery venue is having excellent wine! Our family thoroughly enjoyed the wine options we offered at the wedding and many plan on visiting the winery on their own now that they were introduced to it. We cannot say enough positive words about Sand Castle Winery and Open Aire Affairs. We are so grateful that they created the perfect wedding we had ever hoped for.
Sand Castle Winery provided the perfect venue for both our ceremony and reception. Both the views of the vineyard and the facilities were spectacular. Erin, the event coordinator, ...
was great to work with and made the process as easy and enjoyable as possible. We would highly recommend this venue to others.
My husband and I recently got married at Sand Castle Winery and we couldn't have been happier with our venue selection! From the moment we visited Sand Castle, months before we got...
engaged, we fell in love with the beautiful grounds and amazing views. When we got engaged we knew that we wanted to get married at a winery and even though we loved Sand Castle, we visited other wineries just to get an idea of what else was out there - after many visits to other wineries - Sand Castle was still number 1 for us. Throughout the wedding planning process, the wedding coordinator at Sand Castle, Erin, was extremely helpful and responsive. Erin was truly great to work with and always made sure that we were taken care of both before and during the wedding. I tried to surround myself with great vendors to make my job as a bride easier and Erin was a great asset to my "bridal team"! Another thing we loved about the venue was the ability to personalize a lot of things - it's definitely not a cookie cutter hotel-type venue - as a bride and groom, we were able to customize a lot of the decor, the ceremony and ceremony area, the bar selections (Sand Castle will provide 4 of their wines and you are able to bring in the rest of your liquor so you can pick the type of beer and cocktails) - this made our wedding even more special and truly a reflection of us as a couple. Our wedding day couldn't have been more perfect even though there was a major storm that came through that day! Erin and our caterer, Piccolo's (who I highly recommend using) made sure everything went flawlessly even with the inclement weather. Luckily the weather held out for our ceremony and we were able to get married outside with the vineyard and beautiful river and trees as the backdrop. Our ceremony pictures look amazing with the background! Our guests raved about the unique and beautiful venue and everyone loved the wine! Thank you Sand Castle for making our wedding day perfect!
We had our wedding ceremony and reception at the winery;what a great location (about 30 mins outside of New Hope) and also VERY reasonably priced to host an event here.
Jamie, the...
ir event coordinator, was a joy to work with!
My husband and I, as well as our guests, fell in love with the beautiful scenery; the vineyards were in full bloom and the winery building itself is stunning. Beautiful location for photos!
Another big plus is that the winery is located at the top of a hill, so not susceptible to the flooding that sometimes gets the New Hope area after a big rainfall. The hilltop location also blocks out the noise of the Route 32 traffic below!
Had my daughter's wedding here, cocktail hour in the beautiful building on the property and reception in a tent on the grounds with views of the Delaware River and vineyards. Very ...
picturesque. Tent package includes the building usage with large bar area, the tent, all the chairs and tables for the guests, and unlimited wine. You have to find your own caterer and rent the dishware from the tent company but well worth it. Ask for Jamie.
This place could not have been more perfect for my small wedding. The 2nd floor art gallery was beautiful and offered amazing views of the winery, and the tent that is set up for b...
igger weddings is lovely - we had to use it last minute for our ceremony, as it rained, and the view was just as lovely as it would have been had we been outside, and the tent is lit with fairly lights, which was very pretty.
The price to rent this place is unbelievable for the amount of things you get - the cost per person includes access to the winery all day, the ceremony location, the reception location, and unlimitd wine - and the wine is fantastic.
Jamie, the event coordinator was incredible. With her it was like having a wedding coordinator I didn't have to pay for. She helped me with my caterer, with the tables and chairs, and basically with every little thing I needed. She was great.
The winery itself is beautiful, it feels like you are in France, or somewhere equally beautiful. All my guests remarked how they felt like they were at a'destination wedding' without actually having to travel far.
I cannot recommend this place enough.
The Sand Castle Winery was the perfect venue for our Bucks County Wedding! We were looking for a location that would highlight the features of the area that we call home. We wan...
ted one that would let us enjoy the beauty of the outdoors and still give us the comfort and security of indoor facilities. The inside wine bar was perfect for our cocktail hour. The adjoining outdoor event tent was transformed into a truly magical space for the reception. The views of the Delaware River and the rolling vineyards provided excellent backgrounds for some beautiful photographs. The Sandcastle Winery was very flexible and let us configure the space to meet our needs. We worked with an excellent caterer (a really important detail) to create a very unique and personalized experience, one that our guests are still talking about!
This place is awesome! It only includes the venue though so you have to find your own, caterer, dj, bartenders etc. Which this can be a good or bad thing.
