Say Yes at Kismet This Season
Celebrate National Proposal Day with a setting made for meaningful moments, from vineyard views and Mirror Lake to dinner at Manzil and more

Oliver, B.C. - Kismet Estate Winery is marking National Proposal Day by highlighting the estate as a distinctive South Okanagan setting for proposals, celebrations, and milestone moments.
Now welcoming proposal inquiries for the 2026 season, Kismet offers couples the opportunity to create a meaningful experience on-site, whether that means a quiet moment overlooking the vineyard, a proposal by the private lake, or a larger celebration in the estate’s helicopter hangar. Rooted in the warmth, colour, and spirit of a family-run business shaped by Indian hospitality, Kismet brings together a setting that feels both personal and memorable.
The experience can extend well beyond the proposal itself. Couples and guests can continue the celebration with a glass of award-winning wine, a shared meal at Manzil, or a private gathering with family and friends. Located on the estate, Manzil adds another dimension to the occasion with regional Indian cuisine, vibrant flavours, dishes designed for sharing, and pairings that bring people together around the table.
The announcement also offers an early look at what is ahead for the property. With on-site accommodations coming online this summer and wedding packages planned for next year, Kismet is continuing to grow as a destination for celebrations, weekend escapes, and future wedding moments in the South Okanagan. Couples interested in future wedding offerings are encouraged to sign up for the wedding waitlist.

Those planning a proposal in 2026 are invited to connect with the Kismet team to begin shaping their experience. To start planning a proposal or schedule a site visit, email tastingroom@kismetestatewinery.com.
