Weddings

"The Windham Hill Inn is about as perfect as an inn gets, especially if you are looking for a romantic getaway." Frommer's

Overview: Selected in 2003 as a "Top Ten Romantic Inn" by BedandBreakfast.com and awarded one of twelve “Romantic Hideaways” by the Discerning Traveler, the Windham Hill Inn offers an elegant, romantic setting for small country weddings and civil unions from 2 to 75 people.

Perched on a hillside overlooking the Green Mountains in Southern Vermont, the Inn is located on 160 rural acres just 4.5 hours from New York, 2.5 from Boston and 2 from Hartford. This peaceful haven features breathtaking panoramic views, extensive gardens and manicured lawns bordered by stone walls, luxurious accommodations and amenities, award-winning dining, and a secluded setting – the perfect backdrop for a special celebration.

Ceremony/Reception: Most summer weddings at the Windham Hill Inn are intimate outdoor events under a tent (maximum 75 guests). In our busy seasons, the couple, their immediate families and closest friends reserve the entire inn (21 rooms) for two nights. Additional friends and family can be accommodated at nearby inns.

Smaller celebrations are welcome during our non-peak season when they can coexist peacefully with other guests staying at the inn. The wedding party can choose the 8-room White Barn or the 13-room main inn. Smaller parties can also be accommodated. Windham Hill Inn is available for weddings most of the year, except for Fall Foliage and the Christmas Holidays.

In seasons too cool for outdoor celebrations, we offer a private 1,000 square foot Great Room in the White Barn for a reception (for up to 50 guests). Featuring birch and cherry floors, a wood-burning fieldstone fireplace, a catering kitchen, and two bathrooms, the room is perfect for a party and dancing.

Accommodations: Twenty-one luxurious guest rooms and suites in two historic buildings feature private balconies and mountain views, turn-down service, fireplaces or Vermont Castings gas stoves and Jacuzzis or soaking tubs à deux. Relaxing in-room massages are also available.

Activities: The Inn is convenient to many nearby activities and attractions, such as shopping, dining, culture and arts in Manchester, golf, horseback riding, canoeing, scenic day trips, and more. However, Fodor's has remarked that "There's rarely a reason to leave the 160-acre property…an exquisite country retreat."

Our chef will customize your event menu and, if you wish, your wedding cake. We can also recommend local sources for photography, flowers, entertainment and any required special equipment.
