St Francis Winery Resort

Just a short drive from Adelaide CBD, at the gateway to the famous McLaren Vale Wine region, you'll find St Francis Winery Resort. This award-winning winery venue has everything you need to host an unforgettable wedding in one place, including stylish accommodation, elegant wedding spaces, idyllic gardens, and beautiful photo backdrops. Choose from one of St Francis's carefully curated wedding packages and let the team take care of the finer details for a seamless and stress-free wedding experience. 

With its meticulously manicured gardens, historic winery building, and serene outlook by Lake Carew in Old Reynella, St Francis Winery is a wedding photographer's dream. Many couples choose to make the most of the picturesque setting by hosting an outdoor ceremony in the gardens followed by an al fresco reception dinner under the stars in the warmer months. Alternatively, if you'd prefer an indoor celebration, the charming Cellar Room and spacious Main Vines Room are popular wedding spaces at the venue.

"From the moment we met the function coordinator and were shown the venue, we fell in love! Communication leading up to the day was quick, and every question was answered promptly. The wedding day itself was magical — the food was amazing, the bar staff were fantastic, and so many guests commented on how amazing the venue was! I would highly recommend St Francis as a wedding destination." - Lauren G.
