Highly recommend! Communication with the venue was clear, timely and supportive. The Barn, Inn and grounds are gorgeous, clean and homey. The breakfast offered by the Inn was delicious and a great way for our family and friends to get together in the mornings. The Inn communicated with all our vendors smoothly and professionally. The folks at the Inn truly made us feel like family. We were reassured throughout the weekend that everything was being taken care of and we felt like we could actually relax and enjoy the weekend. Could not have asked for a more perfect venue or a more perfect wedding weekend.
As my husband and I got married at the Inn, we have SO much love to share for this inn!!!!!
Wedding Venue: The Inn at Manchester is absolutely the perfect venue for a cozy, yet elevated Vermont wedding!!! Gretchen and John took such good care of us from the day we took our first tour until the morning after our wedding (and beyond!). They are top-notch when it comes to hospitality and I can't express how grateful we all were to have them in our court four our special day/weekend! The Celebration Barn is magical, the lodging was perfect for our guests, and the grounds are beautiful - anytime of year - but especially during the fall! (I am biased though, we got married on 9/21/2024). Highly, highly recommend having your wedding here, you 10000% will not regret it!
Lodging: My mom and I also stayed a whole week prior to our wedding - plus our guests stayed at the Inn for the weekend of our event - and everything is SO thoughtful at the Inn. The owners + staff are the kindest people you will meet. Brian and Gabby are so lovely and took such great care of us; Todd is a gem of an innkeeper and so much fun to talk to (plus he takes great care of the guests + the inn) and of course John + Gretchen helped out too and made our entire stay so wonderful. The inn itself is so cozy, we often worked remotely in the main Inn house, and the lodging rooms feel like your own home. Plus the inn is conveniently located in the middle of Manchester so you can easily get anywhere when you needed. Also they served a delicious breakfast and it was so comfortable to sit in the dining room with amazing views, as a bonus!
Highly, highly recommend everything about the Inn at Manchester! It will forever hold a special place in your heart :)
As newlyweds, we wanted to take a moment to share our heartfelt review of our wedding venue. Planning a wedding is far from easy, but choosing the Inn at Manchester was the best and easiest decision we made. Everything about our wedding weekend felt perfect. The Inn at Manchester is nestled in the heart of Manchester, VT. The town had so much to offer our guests from shopping, sleeping, activities, etc. When it came to our wedding day, the Inn at Manchester exceeded all expectations. The attention to detail was impeccable, from making the space look elegant to the flawless execution of the timeline. Our guests were greeted with warmth and hospitality from the moment they arrived, and the seamless coordination ensured that everything ran smoothly from start to finish. It truly was the most special day of our lives. What left the greatest impression on us was the genuine care and dedication of the staff at the Inn. Every member of the team went above and beyond to ensure that our day was everything we had hoped for and more. Their passion for their work was evident in every interaction, and their commitment to excellence truly made our wedding day magical. We chose to have a winter wedding and the Inn was prepared for both an indoor or outdoor ceremony that we got to decide day of. The Inn at Manchester will forever hold a special place in our hearts and marriage. If you're searching for the perfect Vermont wedding venue that is elegant, cozy, and makes you feel special, the Inn at Manchester is for you!
Best Wishes,
The MacMillans
The Inn at Manchester was the BEST wedding venue choice for our wedding in October of 2022. We absolutely loved the location, outdoor ceremony space, and the fact that half of our guests could stay onsite with the other half at a hotel block down the street. We started working with Nancy, who was fantastic in helping us plan and coordinate with our other vendors. About 6 months into planning, Nancy left the Inn to move with her family, which we were nervous about. However, we started working with John at the Inn who was incredible throughout planning and went above and beyond on wedding weekend.
John, Brian, Gabi, Gretchen, and the entire Inn staff were fabulous - so kind, willing to help us out with whatever we needed, and made our guests have the best experience. The best parts of the Inn were having it for the whole weekend to be able to set up/take down over the course of the weekend versus a few hours, having the Inn staff break down the entire reception space (so quickly!), the proximity to Mulligan's for the most fun after party, and the tranquil, gorgeous ceremony space.
Truly could not recommend them more - beautiful location, fantastic staff, such a fun venue!! Thank you all again for everything!
We held our wedding welcome party and all wedding events at the Inn at Manchester. From the moment we visited the property and met the staff, we knew we had to look no further for a wedding venue. Our expectations were beyond exceeded and we truly had the best weekend of our lives. John, the current event coordinator, was such a pleasure to work with and made sure our entire weekend ran smoothly. All we had to do was show up and just have a good time. The property, the rooms, and the breakfast are also all amazing for guests to stay the weekend. The staff at this family-run Inn are so amazing and accommodating. We could not have asked for a better place to hold our wedding and highly recommend this special place to anyone!
We had an absolutely incredible wedding weekend at the Inn at Manchester. Nancy, John, Bryan, and Gabi worked closely with us every step up the way to help our wedding visions come to fruition. They were super flexible and worked with us to customize the bar menu, spoke with our vendors to help coordinate set up, and made sure that everything day-of went smoothly. We feel like family and couldn't be luckier to have the Inn as a special place to visit in the future. THANK YOU TO THE ENTIRE TEAM! Everything was perfect.
YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY GET MARRIED HERE!
I was where you are about a year ago – endlessly scrolling through a sea of perfect 5 star reviews trying to pick the perfect wedding venue. It’s overwhelming, stressful, way more intense than you were expecting, and likely the first decision you need to make before planning everything else. The best thing you can do is pick a location that will remove as much stress as possible from your big day. Here’s just a handful of the reasons why the Inn at Manchester should be your top choice:
• Beautiful picturesque Vermont location
• Amazing grounds that are your private retreat for the weekend for you and your guests
• In-door/out-door setup, so no need to worry about the weather
• Centrally located in Manchester close to shops, restaurants, bars, and other hotel accommodations for your guests to explore
• MOST IMPORTANTLY – NANCY AND THE WHOLE TEAM AT THE INN!
My wife and I got married at the Inn at Manchester this past May and to say that Nancy and her team took care of us is an understatement. From our first meeting all the way through our wedding weekend, she was able to provide helpful advice to navigate us through the process. She is amazingly friendly and knowledgeable, has great relationships with all the local vendors, provides honest feedback, and consistently goes above and beyond to make everything as seamless as possible. She probably walked about 30 miles during our wedding weekend helping with everything from setup to bar tending to vendor management to handing out umbrellas to making sure I had a full drink in my hand after they kept disappearing when I put them down! Literally every time I turned around Nancy was there helping to make everything go perfectly. We had the most incredible weekend of our lives in no small part because we decided to get married at the Inn at Manchester and could not recommend them more highly.
The Inn at Manchester was absolutely beautiful and perfect for us in every way! Nancy at the Inn was extremely helpful in the planning process. The entire Inn at Manchester team worked together throughout the weekend to make our event successful. Our guests loved the rooms and praised the grounds and event barn. We had the most beautiful wedding. It was exactly what we wanted from beginning to end! I highly recommend this venue!
The whole staff at the Inn at Manchester was amazing to work with! We fell in love with the venue the second we got there and booked that same day. Nancy made the planning process simple and she made herself available whenever we had questions. Over the wedding weekend, the staff was welcoming, friendly, and truly made us feel like family. Virgil was our favorite bartender and kept us entertained each night! The rooms are beautiful and we loved having breakfast every morning in the dining room. We cannot wait to come back to Manchester and stay at the Inn for many years to come! Thank you everyone for an absolutely amazing experience!
Words can not describe how spectacular Nancy and the whole family at the Inn at Manchester is! Finding a venue seemed like a daunting task. However, when we stepped foot at the Inn and met with Nancy we knew that we found our place. The property is gorgeous and the team is phenomenal. Nancy was quick in answering any question I had or giving any suggestions when I asked. The day of the event was a breeze all due to Nancy’s hard work. She really took any stress out of the day. Our guests raved about how gorgeous the venue was and how efficient and hospitable Nancy is. JoJo was also a super friendly and helpful face on our big day. I can’t praise the Inn and Nancy enough. 10 our of 10 I recommend. I can’t wait to be back to visit!
If you are looking to get married in Manchester, look no further than The Inn at Manchester. Nancy and her team are beyond amazing! Nancy was so incredibly helpful throughout the entire process and very patient with the 100s of questions I had each and everyday. They made our wedding weekend truly spectacular and we could not have had a better experience. The barn is beautiful and our guests loved the ability to be outside after dinner around the fire pit and it was so special to have the Inn filled with just our wedding guests. I could not have been happier to have worked with this team and I will be singing their praises for years to come. Thank you for the most amazing work!
The venue is incredible and we fell in love with it as soon as we saw it. We had both our ceremony and reception here. Nancy and her team with great to work with and very helpful and accommodating. We were able to make our dream wedding a reality. The suites upstairs in the barn are HUGE and well worth the price alone. Seriously, check out the bathroom in the Bass Suite. The family was so friendly and I'm sure we will be coming back to stay another night or two :)
We love the Inn at Manchester and we loved working with Nancy, Julie, and Frank! The Celebration Barn was the perfect venue for our Rehearsal Dinner and Welcome Cocktail party which kicked off our wedding weekend. From our first visit to the Inn at Manchester to the day of the event Nancy, Julie, and Frank were truly a pleasure to work with and they clearly have a talent for putting on memorable events. They were always professional and on top of the details while maintaining the personal touch you’d expect from a family owned and operated business. They’ve also built great working relationships with other wedding vendors we used, including our (phenomenal) wedding planner, Janet Dunnington. We had multiple meetings with the Inn at Manchester team, our wedding planner, and other vendors where we all collaborated together and came up with a plan of action. This was helpful for us because we had a rough idea of what we wanted the event to look like but needed considerable help bringing that idea to life.
We also can’t say enough about the team’s execution, service, and attention to detail on the day of the event. We were truly blown away. The Celebration Barn was ideal for our small (40 guests) Rehearsal Dinner and not-so-small (150 guests) Welcome Cocktail party. All of our guests raved about the venue and the service (Frank and Nancy worked the bar!).
We would highly recommend the Inn at Manchester, for a stay or for an event. And we can’t wait to see Nancy, Julie, and Frank next time we’re in Manchester!
