Finger Lakes Vineyard With Tasting Room and Valley Views

Six Mile Creek Vineyard hosts weddings and private gatherings at 1551 Slaterville Road, just east of downtown Ithaca. The winery overlooks a valley, pond, rolling fields and vineyard rows, giving ceremonies and photographs a layered Finger Lakes landscape. Events can use the grounds, tasting room and outdoor spaces, with indoor capacity around 50 and broader outdoor arrangements for as many as 150 guests. Wine service and venue coordination are available, and the property can support weddings, graduation celebrations, reunions, showers, corporate socials and seasonal dinners. The combination of a working winery, covered and uncovered seating, water views and open countryside gives the venue a recognizable identity without requiring guests to travel far from hotels and services in Ithaca.

Hosts should confirm which portions of the property become private because the tasting room may continue normal business during some events. Review ceremony placement, rain coverage, guest capacity, seating, tables, power and the transition between indoor and outdoor areas. Ask how wine and other alcohol are served, whether outside catering is permitted, and which professional vendors are recommended or required. Parking, accessibility and safe circulation near the pond and vineyard should be addressed in the guest plan. Productions should discuss commercial-use approval, operating winery activity, sound, equipment access, furniture movement and restrictions around vines or agricultural areas. Final arrangements should cover amplified music, end times, pets, decorations, insurance, deposits, cancellation, vendor arrival, cleanup and weather decisions. Confirm every included service in writing so the final budget reflects both venue rental and outside rentals.
