Burlington Wedding Venues

Vows in Vermont

Vermont was once named the second most relaxed state in the country. Channel that chill into your wedding day. Rustic, outdoor weddings are popular in Burlington for that exact reason. At a lakeside bed and breakfast, you and your guests can watch the sunset as you sip on local microbrews. In rugged timber frame barns, pose for wedding portraits with a vintage tractor. Peaceful mountain inns offer bonfire services for wedding receptions, where cake is happily traded in for Smores.

Guests will love the farm-to-table cuisine such venues have to offer. Couples hoping for a waterfront ceremony will delight in the city's plethora of Lake Champlain wedding venues. Weddings there feel coastal, even though you're hours from the ocean.

Burlington weddings don't need to be expensive to be beautiful. In fact, most ceremonies and receptions average about $25,000. Wedding guests can expect to pay about $150 per night for hotel stays in Burlington.

Brrlington?

Burlington sees an average of 75 inches of snow each year - that's three times the national average! For couples willing to tie the knot during the winter, they're often rewarded with a winter wonderland setting that can feel even more magical than your average wedding ceremony.

Most Burlington couples instead choose the late spring to marry, with May and June being the most popular months for Vermont weddings. The low 70s temperatures are perfect for an outdoor ceremony. Of course, rain can happen virtually any time of year, so couples concerned about the forecast should consider venues with both indoor and outdoor options.
