Barn Weddings
Barn Weddings & Venues in Vermont
A serene red barn sitting in Vermont river valley, fronting a skyline of majestic mountains. A wedding venue? Oh, yes, indeed. Some of the state’s beautiful old dairy and orchardists’ barns have been re-created as wedding halls for rustic weddings in a warm rural setting. Wedding barns are usually post-and-beam buildings with wooden floors (great for dancing) and rafters dripping with loops of starry lights. Barns may be on the land with inns or B&Bs, and their hosts typically provide catering services or kitchens and all the help you need from professional wedding planners. You can even get married in a barn loft, with tall windows opening to the mountains. Your guests will re-tell this story for years to come.
