Best day of our life!

All we can say is wow. Our wedding at the Old Gray Barn gave us what was truly the best day of our life. The ceremony site was magical with unbelievable views, and the barn provides a perfect, cozy, rustic cocktail hour and reception. I can't explain the amount of compliments we got - best wedding, prettiest venue, best wedding food (that's a big one), and overall best wedding vibes. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a perfect countryside wedding. Everyone felt like they were home.

Amazing venue for a rustic Vermont Barn Wedding

We had our wedding at the Old Gray Barn on May 8, 2021 and could absolutely not have been more pleased. Having our wedding postpone from 2020 to 2021 was extremely stressful but Colleen and the folks from Church Street Hospitality/Barrows House helped us to reschedule (several times) seamlessly and without missing a beat. When the day finally came the venue was absolutely gorgeous, the food and drinks were amazing, and the overall experience truly could not have been better or easier. We had the very best day of our lives and it exceeded all of our expectations thanks, in a huge part, to the help, support and guidance from the The Old Gray Barn & Barrows House wedding staff.

The Barrows house is beautifully newly renovated, on a unique property, lending itself to accommodate large wedding parties and their guests. Something couples struggle to find, and are very pleasantly surprised by stumbling upon this advantageous feature at the Barrows House property. A must see!! The main building + restaurant are stunning inside and out. With regards to hosting your wedding at the Barrows House, reflections I hear over and over from couples are that from the moment of conception your wedding is tailored specifically to your personal style and needs. This is largely due to the first class attention you receive by the properties manager, Colleen Clifton-Palmer. Her knowledge, vision and exemplary customer service, and providing a seamless experience are all reasons why your wedding at the Barrows House will be one to fondly remember. Brides and their families also fawn over the Dorset Inn, and it being the picture of quintessential New England charm.....complimenting the Barrows House with its own unique presence. Making both The Barrows House + The Dorset Inn a truly fabulous experience for your Vermont wedding.
