“Where do we even start? We just returned from our honeymoon and are still reveling in the most magical wedding weekend we could have ever had. It’s all thanks to Meesha at The Wilburton Inn. From the moment we came for our initial tour, Meesha was all you could want out of a wedding planner, as well as a friend who is thoughtful, kind, smart, and more than a joy to be around. She helped with every single aspect of our planning, and we trusted here word entirely — we couldn’t have been more happy with working with her! As to the venue, there is simply no better place to have a wedding. For context, my husband and I have big families. A lot of our family members were coming in from out of town and out of the country, so our priority was to have a wedding weekend where people could be together for more than one night. This is exactly what we got with the Wilburton. Our guests were able to play tennis, go hiking, go swimming, explore Manchester and, most of all, be together in the days leading up to the actual wedding. We reserved almost all of the houses on the property for guests to stay in, which created a laidback atmosphere as most people didn’t have to worry about driving back and forth or leaving at any point. As for the wedding night, it was pure magic. The food was perfect, the service was perfect, the weather (luckily) was also perfect, which was just the cherry on top. You cannot beat the people, the venue, and THE VIEWS!!! We wish we could do it all over again, but we are looking forward to visiting The Wilburton again for many, many years to come.”

“The Kimpton Taconic Hotel was an absolute dream venue for our wedding! From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly communicative, professional, and attentive to our needs. Natalie, the event coordinator, checked in with us personally when we got there and ensured that everything was taken care of, including arranging for my dress to be steamed the day before the wedding. The hotel itself is absolutely gorgeous, with a cozy and quintessential Vermont feel that was exactly what we were looking for! Natalie was also onsite throughout our wedding ceremony making sure everything ran smoothly—which it did! We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful, stress-free, and memorable experience.

“The Celebration Barn at the Inn at Manchester was an exceptional venue for our wedding. From our first inquiry, the staff was incredibly clear, supportive, and timely in their communication. The barn, the Inn and the grounds were gorgeous, clean and homey. The morning breakfast offered by the Inn was delicious and a wholesome way for friends and family to get together in the mornings. The Inn collaborated with all our vendors smoothly and reassured us throughout the weekend that things were in order and we could relax.

The West Mountain Inn was originally built as a farmhouse in 1809. From 1880 to 1920, first a gristmill and then a lumber mill were operated on the Battenkill River at the foot of the mountain. In 1904 Ned and Gwendolyn Rochester purchased the 150 acre farm and began to transform it into an elegant summer estate. After a succession of other residents the estate later became an arts and retreat center.

“We had the perfect wedding at the West Mountain Inn! The venue is gorgeous, accommodating, and extremely well organized, all thanks to Amie and her wonderful team. Our family and friends are still raving about the venue (and food, and alpacas) almost a year later. Amie is a dream to work with. She is responsive, makes helpful suggestions, and brings a calm to the entire process. There's a lot of flexibility offered, but we also very much appreciated guidance on how a typical package or wedding went at the Inn (they've thought of everything). You feel welcomed and at ease in this beautiful space. Looking back, I can't emphasize enough how important it is to have such a helpful team be part of the venue. We can't recommend this venue enough!”
