About Our Guest: 

Jacquot Vineyard was established in 2011 when their family was presented with the opportunity to acquire an old, neglected wedding venue in the small town of Hockinson, Washington. Over the course of many years, the family dedicated themselves to renovating and farming, ultimately transforming Jacquot Vineyard into the revitalized, beautiful wedding venue it is today. The Jacquot family proudly upholds its French heritage by perpetuating the longstanding tradition of farming.

With a commitment to quality, the Jacquot family has become known for producing some of the finest wines in Washington, enhancing the special experiences for couples and guests who choose their venue. Drawing on nearly a decade of experience working with engaged couples, they have honed the venue's operation to empower couples to preserve their creativity and truly customize their wedding day. Recognizing the significance of family, Jacquot Vineyard serves as a wonderful gathering place for couples to bring their families together. The family's primary goal is to ensure that every visitor's experience is one they will cherish and remember always.
