Plan the Destination Wedding of Your Dreams, Close to Seattle

July 15, 2025 | Wedding Blogs

If you’re dreaming of a wedding that feels like a destination but is just a short drive from Seattle, a Woodinville winery wedding is the perfect answer. Among the many venues on the Eastside, Novelty Hill-Januik Winery stands apart for its striking modern architecture, lush gardens, and secluded wine-country charm.

A Modern Space Rooted in Natural Beauty

Novelty Hill-Januik is a bold, architectural winery venue where concrete, glass, and natural wood create a contemporary aesthetic. Designed to be both functional and beautiful, the winery’s indoor spaces open seamlessly to expansive gardens, giving couples the best of both worlds: a modern setting surrounded by lush natural beauty.

The Terrace Room is a highlight. With floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the working winery and garden courtyard, it floods receptions with natural light and offers unique photo opportunities from every angle.

Exclusive Gardens, Private Celebration

Woodinville is known for its greenery, and Novelty Hill-Januik’s gardens showcase the very best of the Pacific Northwest. From spring blossoms to golden fall leaves, the outdoor spaces are stunning year-round. Couples will find:

  • A tree-lined courtyard perfect for ceremonies
  • A lower garden with café lights, bocce ball, and firepits
  • Private terraces and tucked-away seating areas for photos or a quiet moment together

And best of all, when you book your wedding here, the property is exclusively yours for the evening. No overlapping events. No outside guests. Just you, your loved ones, and the wine.

Timeless, Elegant, and Effortless

There’s something about winery weddings that never goes out of style. Maybe it’s the aroma of wine barrels, the warm family welcome (don’t be surprised to be greeted by a Januik), or simply the feeling of leaving city life behind—without the long trip.

At Novelty Hill-Januik, that timeless atmosphere is paired with top-tier hospitality. Full furniture setup, an expert service team, and a built-in planning staff make the process seamless. It’s luxurious yet relaxed, elegant but never stuffy. Every detail is designed to make wedding planning feel effortless.

Local, Yet Transportive

Woodinville is just 30 minutes from Seattle, yet weddings here feel like a true getaway. Couples looking for a venue that embodies that spirit—standout architecture, private gardens, and winery ambiance—will find it all at Novelty Hill-Januik Winery.
