Big Cork Vineyards, a winery in the greater Washington, D.C. area, invites couples to celebrate a vintage country wedding. At this winery, couples will find a working vineyard with rows upon rows of grapevines. There is also an elegant indoor location with bright chandeliers and barrels of wine.
Facilities and Capacity
Couples can invite up to 250 guests to their wedding at the Big Cork Vineyards. Ceremonies can be held in locations across the property at this charming vineyard. With the grapevines as the backdrop, these ceremonies are natural and breathtaking. In the distance, mountain peaks rise up to meet the blue sky. In addition to wooden chairs, the venue provides a standalone door in a frame which stands at the start of the aisle. There are also multiple reception spots for couples to choose from. The tasting room, with its metallic and wooden barrels, makes the perfect location to set up long reception tables. Overhead, white chandeliers in a twisting design light the room. The building also has a patio space outside for a couple’s reception or cocktail hour. This includes tables partially in the shade and partially out in the sun, or — as twilight settles in — under the stars.

The venue offers the following services and event items:

I would give more stars if I could!! BIG Cork was such an amazing venue and the staff there is fantastic! Meagan was very responsive and helpful throughout the entire process and made our day perfect :) The house on the property is amazing and was such an asset, from the rehearsal dinner, to getting ready on the day of, it made such a difference in our experience. Rain or shine BIG Cork has so many options and is willing to accommodate any way possible to make your vision for your wedding day happen. I would recommend this venue to anyone who is looking for a stress-free, beautiful wedding! Given the crazy times, BIG Cork was extremely flexible and gave us the opportunity to escape reality for two days and really enjoy this special time in our lives. My husband and I had such a great time on our wedding day and we wish we could relive every moment (it was perfect!) We have received countless compliments on BIG Cork from our guests. The rolling hills and incredible views are unforgettable and we will no doubt be returning for years to come. It’s quite the gem!! ;)

Beautiful, Flexible, Helpful
My fiance and I fell in love with this venue the moment we arrived. We booked it the same day and never regretted that decision. The point of contact, Meagan, was so helpful the whole time in answering all my questions and helping me plan out the perfect day. It was so nice to have the option for inside or outside ceremony/reception/ cocktail hour depending on the weather. The views were breathtaking and the day ran so smooth. I would definitely recommend this venue to anyone who wants to get married in the mountains.
