Winter Weddings in Southern Vermont

Vermont has a special glow in the winter, making it a classic location for winter weddings. And that sparkle is even more special at The Reluctant Panther Inn and Restaurant, where intimate elopements, and weddings of up to 65 guests have a special feel in the winter, with lights glittering on the snow, the mountains in the distance. The luxury inn’s staff will help you customize your day to create lasting memories, from your rehearsal dinner to your after-party. Ceremony and reception venues in the inn are warm and cozy, dining is creative and locally sourced, and service is superb. Book the luxury inn’s entire 20 rooms and suites and you’ll feel like you are celebrating your wedding on a private estate in the heart of Manchester Village.

If you have dreamed of a storybook wedding, consider booking a winter wedding at the historic, elegant Grafton Inn. Grafton Village is worthy of a postcard every season of the year, but it is particularly magical in the winter. Have your ceremony in he village’s lovely white-steepled Community Church or Brick Meeting House or, at the inn, by the fireplace in the Homestead Room or Windham Parlor. Receptions in the Phelps Barn, lit with bistro string lights, are dramatic, as are gatherings in the more formal Tavern Dining Room. Planning and catering teams will see to it that your winter wedding sparkles, from your horse-drawn sleigh ride up to the inn to the raised champagne glasses sending you off at evening’s end.
