The Inn at Round Barn Farm is a historic wedding venue and bed & breakfast set on 45 acres in Vermont's Mad River Valley. Its centerpiece, the Round Barn, was built in 1910 as a dairy barn and is one of only five remaining round barns in the state, now restored to host weddings, concerts, and private events across its Milking Parlor and Hayloft levels. The property's certified organic vegetable gardens supply the in-house Round Barn Culinary Team for farm-to-table dining, while the surrounding grounds of ponds, meadows, and gardens offer a backdrop for outdoor ceremonies and cocktail hours through every season, including a snow-covered winter setting. Guests can extend their stay in the Inn's 12 guest rooms, each individually decorated, with breakfast, afternoon cookies, and evening hors d'oeuvres included.

Satoyama is a sustainable, organic farm wedding venue on 20 acres of hayfield and pasture in central Vermont, backed by another 140 acres of forest, a mountain stream, and large swimming ponds. The property sits five minutes from Route 100 and within three hours of Boston, with the ski towns of Warren, Sugarbush, and Killington all nearby. Ceremonies take place on an east-facing site overlooking mountain views and cascading ponds, seated on wide slab benches set among the meadows. Receptions move to the Barn, a post-and-beam structure about 100 yards from the farmhouse, where wedding bookings are capped at roughly 100 guests. An on-site farmhouse offers lodging, a country kitchen, and gathering rooms for the wedding party, and the grounds include two swimming ponds, an apiary, and roughly 50 cultivated fruit and nut species. Couples are free to pick flowers from the farm for their wedding, especially from July onward, and Satoyama does not require specific vendors — booked parties receive a vetted list of local recommendations instead.

The Inn at Grace Farm is a private estate wedding venue set in the Vermont countryside of Fairfax, with panoramic views of the Green Mountains. Originally a farming homestead, the property still bears remnants of its original stone footings, and its current buildings — the Inn, the Stone House, and an octagon-shaped post-and-beam barn — reflect that agricultural heritage. The barn, built in 2014 with lumber drawn largely from the surrounding acreage, serves as the estate's reception space; it received a fresh coat of white paint in 2022 and includes radiant floor heating and an on-site catering kitchen, making it a year-round option for weddings. The estate offers three outdoor ceremony sites: a front lawn framed by a built-in timber arch with the Green Mountains as a backdrop, a west lawn set closest to the property's waterfall, and a more secluded backyard site anchored by an old stone structure. Couples and their wedding parties can also stay on site — the Inn and the Stone House provide boutique lodging for getting ready, rehearsal dinners, and morning-after brunches, with exclusive access to the property throughout the wedding weekend.

Shelburne Vineyard planted its first grapes in 1998 on the east shore of Lake Champlain, in what locals call Vermont's "banana belt" — a near sea-level stretch of the Champlain Valley warm enough to sustain cold-climate winemaking. The working vineyard's grounds, with sweeping views toward the water and vines running down to a great lawn, set the backdrop for weddings, rehearsal dinners, showers, and other private gatherings. Guests are typically hosted in the Tasting Room, a 806-square-foot space centered on an elegant cherry tasting bar built from wood grown on nearby Shelburne Farms, with French doors opening onto flagstone patios and vineyard views. A separate loft overlooks the tasting room and offers a smaller, more intimate space for seated dinners or standing receptions. From late spring through early fall, the outdoor patio and lawn extend the celebration further into the vines, with tented capacity available through Vermont Tent Company. Shelburne Vineyard's events team works directly with hosts to plan weddings, corporate events, fundraisers, and holiday parties, and can accommodate catered dining throughout the property.
