If you’re looking for a sleek, modern winery venue with wide-open skies and high-end service, Four Daughters Vineyard & Winery just outside Rochester, MN, is one of the Midwest’s best-kept secrets. With expansive views, minimalist architecture, and in-house catering and wine, it’s perfect for couples who want a polished celebration that still feels grounded in nature.
As a Wisconsin and Minnesota wedding photographer, I love Four Daughters for its clean lines, golden fields, and the way the space holds light all day long.
A Real-Feeling Wedding Story
Katie and Sean wanted something simple but upscale — a venue that didn’t need heavy décor and had good food baked in. “We didn’t want to stress about outside rentals or extra logistics,” Sean said.
They got married just outside the vineyard rows under a white canopy, with soft music playing and the vineyard stretching behind them. Cocktail hour included wine flights and house cider while guests wandered the patio. Dinner took place indoors, with long tables, modern lighting, and floor-to-ceiling windows showing off the fading sun.
Their first dance happened right at the edge of golden hour — with wine in hand and nothing rushed.
