The Best Places to Elope in Mendoza
Argentina's wine country, where rows of Malbec vines run to the foot of the snow-capped Andes and the highest peak in the Americas stands on the horizon. Wine, mountains, and long golden light.
You picture an Argentine elopement as Patagonia or Buenos Aires.
In the west, the vineyards run straight to the highest mountains in the Americas.
Mendoza is where Argentina's wine country meets the Andes, and it gives vines, mountains, and long golden light in one place.

Rows of Malbec vines stretch across the high desert to the foot of the snow-capped Andes, with Aconcagua, the highest peak in the Americas, on the horizon. The bodegas of Maipu and the Uco Valley offer vineyard settings with the mountains behind, some of the most romantic wine-country frames anywhere.
The vineyards and the Andes
Rows of Malbec vines stretch across the high desert to the foot of the snow-capped Andes, with Aconcagua, the highest peak in the Americas, on the horizon. The bodegas of Maipu and the Uco Valley offer vineyard settings with the mountains behind, some of the most romantic wine-country frames anywhere.
Wine, food, and light
Beyond the views, Mendoza is a full experience: private bodega dinners, world-class wine, and the long golden light of the high desert at sunset. A day here can pair a vineyard ceremony with a tasting and a candlelit dinner among the vines.
The right spot depends on the light and the bodega you want. As your Elopement Curator I plan the day, coordinate the symbolic ceremony and the winery, and both shoot and film it. Twelve years and 240+ couples in, Mendoza is the most romantic wine-and-mountains elopement on the continent.
