Next Chapter Winery, a wedding venue in New Prague, Minnesota, includes a vineyard backdrop that feels incredibly romantic and timeless.









Next Chapter Winery is a venue here in Minnesota that is filled with natural beauty and feels like an escape. Set in New Prague, it’s surrounded by vineyard views and open space that naturally lends itself to a laid-back, outdoor-focused wedding day. The layout flows really well between ceremony and reception, making it very convenient for your guests. If you’re looking for a Minnesota venue that feels inviting and effortlessly beautiful, this is the one to consider!













Next Chapter Winery is one of those venues that is simplistic, yet incredibly beautiful. The property is set just outside of New Prague, surrounded by rolling land and rows of vines that give it that quiet, tucked-away feel without being too far from everything. For ceremonies, most couples choose to use the outdoor space overlooking the vineyard. It’s open, scenic, and doesn’t need much added to it; you can can keep things simple and let the focus stay on the surroundings. There’s plenty of room for guests, and it’s especially nice in the late afternoon when the light softens across the vines.
The reception space is indoors, with a clean and cozy feel that still leaves room to make it your own. It works really well for dinner, toasts, and dancing without needing to flip the entire space or move guests around too much. There’s an easy flow from outside to inside, so guests can step out, grab a drink, and come back in without it ever feeling disconnected. It’s the kind of setup that keeps the day moving smoothly without a lot of extra logistics.
Getting ready at Next Chapter Winery is pretty straightforward, with designated spaces that give you a place to settle in before everything begins. There’s the barrel room that has a fun, masculine vibe perfect for the groom and his groomsmen to prep before the day starts. The grounds as a whole are what really tie everything together. Between the vineyard rows, open fields, and surrounding landscape, there’s a lot of variety for photos without needing to leave the property. It’s easy to step away for a few quiet moments or sunset photos and then come right back to your guests. Overall, it’s a venue that feels romantic in an effortless way.








Here is everything that is included when you choose to host your wedding at the beautiful Next Chapter Winery:








Video has a way of bringing your wedding day back to life in a way nothing else really can. You’re not just seeing how everything looked, you’re hearing your voices during your vows, the way your people laughed during toasts, and all those in-between moments you didn’t even realize were happening. It captures the movement, the energy, and the emotion of the day as it actually felt, not just a single moment in time. Most couples say the day flies by, and having it on video lets you step back into it later and take it all in in a much different way. It ends up being one of those things that feels even more meaningful the more time passes.
This is why I offer this as an add-on for my couples for their wedding packages, so I can capture all those little moments they can treasure forever. I had the chance to do the video for this wedding at Next Chapter Winery as well, and included the full video at the end of this post to give a glimpse at how this can look for your own wedding day.
