California's wine country is a perfect choice for a summer wedding. One fun wedding idea is to get married on the Napa Valley Wine Train, a three-hour round-trip rail and gourmet dining adventure from the town of Napa to St. Helena. Of course, while many automatically think of Napa Valley when they think California wine country, there are many different wine regions from which to choose, such as Paso Robles, Santa Barbara County and Sonoma County to name just a few. While not very well known outside California, Paso Robles is one of California's fastest growing wine region, with nearly 26,000 vineyard acres and more than 170 wineries within a 40-mile territory. Not only that, but it's a beautiful area to boot. And, you avoid the crowds of Napa Valley. A couple wineries to consider in Paso Robles for your wedding are Meridian Vineyards and Zenaida Cellers.

Seven Falls cascades 181 feet in seven distinct steps down a solid cliff of Pikes Peak granite, making it a popular spot for couples to tie the knot. You can host a wedding of up to 150 people at Seven Falls, although they do not have reception facilities and alcohol is prohibited.
