A True Vermont Gem!
As planners, we love venues that are not only stunning but also well-appointed—places that make our jobs a little easier. RRF is exactly that for me and my team.
Jaime and Jimmy are the perfect hosts. They manage the property with genuine care, not only for the venue itself but also for the couples and vendors they welcome. The space is meticulously maintained, with every detail thoughtfully considered. They provide essential rentals—tables, chairs, high-tops, bars, and patio furniture—along with a dedicated on-site team to assist throughout the weekend.
The on-site accommodations for the wedding party or family add another layer of ease, making the wedding day feel relaxed and seamless.
