Vineyard / Winery Weddings in RI

Hi,
I live it CT we have quite a few vineyards nearby, but the prices have skyrocketed lately due to the rising popularity of Vineyard weddings in this area. I've been to Sakonnet and Greenvale in RI and I know there are a few more. Has anyone had a wedding at any RI vineyards that could recommend something?

Budget is around $15,000.

Thanks!

    Congrats!
    I used to work at Greenvale so I know it very well! You said you've been there, so you know how exquisite and lovely, yet cozy it is. And the wine... Oh the wine! Yummmm! My girls threw my Shower there and it was splendid. A few down falls, though. You have to do it after hours. Meaning, caterers and such cannot begin to set up until 5PM. I think if you do it in tent vs. the stable they're a bit more lenient. There's only one bathroom, so you'd probably need to rent portapotties to keep your guests comfy.
    There's also Newport Vineyards, but to me it doesn't have quite the same feel since it's main attraction is the storefront. They do have a tent already set up off the storefront that I believe you can use, or bring in your own. Unfortunately I don't know much about weddings there.
    There's also Westport Vineyards, which is in MA, but not too far from Newport area. It has a rustic feel like Greenvale. I helped catering there once and seem to remember it being more conducive to weddings than, say Newport Vineyard. I think Sakonnet would also fall into that catagory.
    Sorry, I know this is long, just trying to be helpful! In short, I think you should keep Greenvale and Sakonnet on your radar of locations, but also check out Westport. Maybe make a day trip, visit all three, and get info on each. Most girls just "know" their venue when they visit! Good luck, and let me know if you have any more questions!

    I met the girl from Leyden Vineyards at hte bridal show. It's a new vineyard so I assume the pricing is better than other places:  http://www.leydenfarm.com/
