About
Just off Route 28 in Derry, New Hampshire, hidden behind a graceful row of arborvitaes and lush grapevines, Birch Wood Vineyards offers a blend of vineyard elegance and refined warmth that is genuinely one of a kind. From the moment you arrive, the outside world falls away, replaced by manicured gardens, the subtle fragrance of the vineyard, and a setting that feels simultaneously intimate and grand. Established in 2016, Birch Wood Vineyards has grown into one of Southern New Hampshire's most celebrated wedding destinations, earning the devotion of couples and guests through an unwavering commitment to exceptional experiences.
Birch Wood Vineyards offers two distinct ceremony settings, each with its own irresistible character. Outdoors, the Wine Garden invites couples to exchange vows in a space uniquely shaped like a wine glass, a charming nod to the vineyard setting that feels as intentional as it is beautiful. Framed by a custom pergola, a grape leaf-inspired fountain, a romantic flower wall, and fragrant grapevines, it creates a serene, photo-worthy backdrop that feels wholly immersive. For those drawn to an indoor setting, the Fireside offers an equally captivating alternative, anchored by a grand majestic fireplace that fills the room with soft, warm light and an unmistakable sense of intimacy. Large windows throughout the property frame New England's ever-changing seasonal landscape, from lush summer greenery to vibrant fall foliage and peaceful winter scenes, meaning there is truly no wrong time of year to say "I do" here.
Following the ceremony, guests are welcomed into the Vineyard Room, an expansive, wine-country-inspired gathering space that sets the tone for the evening ahead. Barrel-inspired design elements, ample room for mingling, and a natural, relaxed flow make it the perfect setting for passed hors d'oeuvres and artfully crafted cocktails. It's lively yet comfortable, encouraging connection and celebration as the night fully unfolds.
The Estate Room serves as the heart of the reception experience. With its open layout, rich wood finishes, warm architectural details, and a sweeping dance floor anchored by a stunning fireplace centerpiece, it delivers a perfect balance of warmth and polished sophistication. Rich textures, natural materials, and thoughtful design details come together to create a dramatic, inviting space that makes a reception feel truly special, whether styled for an elegant seated dinner or a vibrant, high-energy celebration.
Birch Wood Vineyards provides professional staffing, event planning, and day-of coordination so every detail is handled seamlessly. In-house planners assist with vendor recommendations, floor plans, and rehearsal coordination, ensuring nothing is overlooked. A dedicated bridal suite above the Estate Room offers a spacious retreat for getting ready, with a second suite available for partners or wedding party members.
Birch Wood Vineyards is located at 199 Rockingham Road in Derry, New Hampshire, just off Route 28 and easily accessible from communities throughout Southern New Hampshire and the Greater Boston area. The property's natural beauty, from its vineyard-lined courtyard to its meticulously maintained gardens, makes it a destination worthy of the drive.

Professional Network & Endorsements
Birch Wood Vineyards is New Hampshires newest venue. It's owned by Rue and Sallie Nijhof. This place is nothing short of "amazing." I have already worked there and I can't tell you how stunning and how great the staff and place is. Unlike many places you can have your ceremony right in the middle of the vineyard. Then your guests can enjoy their beautiful "Vineyard Room" (floor to ceiling windows over looking the vineyard with comfortable lounge furniture). Then your guests will be invited into the "Estate Room" (a Ballroom with rustic elegance) Huge dance floor with a fireplace centerpiece). If you are getting married and are looking for a unique 5 star venue, then look no further.....Birch Wood Vineyards is the place to be!
