Host Your Unique Wedding at a Barn, Museum, or Riverboat

It’s easy to choose a truly unusual and unique wedding venue in New England – a place of many interesting nooks and quirks. In Connecticut, for instance, you could speak your vows and host an unforgettable party on a Mississippi-style riverboat or a 1920s-era dinner train moving along the Connecticut River. Vermont has a special fondness for restored barns. A bridal dance with strings of lights dipping from the barn rafters is a sweet experience. Imagine the first bridal dance at a vineyard, an art museum, an island off the coast of Maine, and green field overlooking distant mountain peaks. All these unique wedding settings are staffed by hosts who can help bring every practical need – catering, transportation, guest lodging – to a perfect conclusion.

Imagine your guests taking a chair-lift up to a mountain summit to watch you say your “I do’s” against panoramic views of the Berkshires. (The resort can set up a viewing room for guests who can’t access the summit.) Or, have your ceremony in a tree-lined space by a babbling brook. Have your reception in a lodge with almost equally-impressive mountain views or in a ballroom with adjacent fireside lounge with comfortable couches and chairs (also great for cocktail receptions). Wedding and culinary teams will work with you to create that unique experience you are seeking.
