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 150 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 ceremony 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.

Services Offered

At this modern winery, couples can have both their wedding ceremony and reception. For couples who want to use the winery but have a different plan in mind for their wedding day, the venue is open to hosting bridal showers and engagement parties as well. The venue offers the following services and event items:

  • Bridal suite

Location

October Wedding

Big Cork and their staff were so wonderful for our wedding from the very beginning. They were attentive and friendly during the whole planning process. Meagan was always communicating with us promptly and clearly to make sure we were all always on the same page. Also, being able to stay on the property for the entire weekend was so convenient, making it easy to store decorations and all other items in advance so we did not feel rushed the day of. We would strongly recommend using their listed vendors as they have clearly worked with each other so often to make the wedding day seamless. Not to mention, the venue is gorgeous! During the fall, the sunset is so beautiful over the valley with an outdoor ceremony, we couldn't have asked for anything better!

Beautiful backdrop for your big day!

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect venue for our wedding! The scenery was absolutely beautiful, with breathtaking views that created the ideal backdrop for our day. Our guests were wowed by the setting, and we were thrilled with how everything looked.

A special thank you to Meagan for her incredible flexibility and support throughout the planning process. She went above and beyond to accommodate our needs, making adjustments and helping us bring our vision to life. Her calm and organized approach made the entire experience smooth and stress-free.

We’re so grateful to BIG Cork and Meagan for making our wedding unforgettable!

Best venue ever!

We got married at Big Cork about a month ago, and it was as close to perfect as you could get! Can't say enough at how impressed we were with what Big Cork offered. We had 150 guests, and with the weather in mid-September, our guests got the chance to take all of the property in, from arrival at 5:30, through Sunset, and capping off the night at 11.

Meagan was wonderful to work with, very polite and approachable when we had questions throughout our planning process. She was even able to make a few last minute changes to our table layout a couple days before. Her team was very efficient in the setup and breakdown of the tables and chairs for ceremony and reception, in a short amount of time!

Big Cork offers their wedding guests the Big House, which is a 5 bedroom home on the property. We were able to use this for our rehearsal dinner, first look, and after-party. This was a game changer! We would recommend anyone to have Big Cork host their wedding, we will certainly be back on weekends to enjoy their wine and take the views in. 10/10.
