Farm Road Estate Reviews

The Sawmill Inn Farm Road Estate was the perfect choice for our wedding celebration. We had eloped Jan 1 at the Sawmill with a small ceremony and a family style dinner to follow. It was perfectly charming. Fast forward to September and we held a Sunday afternoon party to celebrate with friends, family, live music and food. It was the absolute perfect day. Taylor helped us with the right food and bar packages to fit our budget. Every single person we invited reached out afterwards raving about the venue, staff, food and vibe. It was the perfect day, again just as we envisioned but better.

Our happy place

Farm Road Estate created a fairytale come true for our daughter’s wedding. It was a magical weekend for all. Our guests stayed on the breath-taking property. All the rooms and cottages are gorgeously decorated in farmhouse style and filled with all the amenities that you desire.

We were hoping for a picture-perfect sunny day, but Mother Nature wasn’t having it. FRE quickly went to plan B, moving the ceremony and cocktails indoors to the beautiful and intimate great room. It was filled with charm, warmth, and love. The party was in their beautiful pavilion with chandlers, string lights, farm tables, and more. FRE went above and beyond our expectations, making our daughter's dream wedding come true. Little touches didn’t go unnoticed—there was a chill in the air, and they went around giving blankets to those who were cold. Taylor, Michael, Kelly, and the staff were attentive to all our needs and made us part of their family. Our guests were wowed by the exceptionally delicious food, and the chef’s presentation was perfection! Thank you, Farm Road Estate!

We were absolutely blown away by our wedding at Farm Road Estate. They helped us in every step of planning to ensure that we could put our own personal stamp on the wedding and executed it to a T. It was such an incredible experience to have our friends and family stay on the same property together and be able to intermingle with each other during the down time. Truly the best weekend of our lives!

Farm Road Estate is the most absolutely perfect venue for a wedding! Their Wedding/Event Coordinator Jessica is a perfect combination of fun, calm, detail oriented, on point, flexible, happy, kind, and caring that is essential for a Wedding Weekend to go smoothly. Jessica and the staff at Farm Road Estate went beyond every dream and expectation we could have imagined for our Wedding Weekend! We were able to have multiple planning sessions on site (virtual is an option too), food tasting, property tours, room tours, you name it and they did it. We felt so comfortable and confident going into our wedding weekend that when people asked us how we were feeling we would say, "Excited and ready!" There are multiple locations for you to hold the ceremony (indoor and outdoor), we chose by the large pond and it was absolutely stunning. Our cocktail hour was held on the patio with indoor and outdoor options available for our guests to mingle. We wanted our reception to be held indoors with the band on the ground level and they were very accommodating to make the space work even with our group size and a photobooth section and a dessert table! We also had an afterparty down in the speakeasy which was a personal favorite of mine. The food was phenomenal, our guests have been raving about the food ever since! The staff were absolutely exceptional! So attentive, happy, engaging, and truly made sure every guest felt taken care of. The rooms were a dream and so incredibly clean and had gorgeous rustic décor combined with fine elegance. Our bartender had everyone laughing and enjoying themselves while outside, the groundskeepers kept our bonfires going all weekend long to enjoy some pristine Vermont air and star gazing! Farm Road Estate and their absolutely incredible staff truly created the most magical and memorable wedding weekend for us and our loved ones.

My husband and I got married at Farm Road Estate in June and it could not have been a more beautiful day. Farm Road Estate is the perfect venue for what we were searching for in a Wedding Weekend. The ability to have all of our guests stay with us at the venue, after not being able to see everyone for so long was incredible. Everyone at the venue was so easy to talk to and helpful in making our wedding so fun and memorable. Every detail was accounted for.
The food was incredible and the rooms were so comfortable and relaxing. As any Bride and Groom know, you are so in the moment and so busy during your wedding, it is so important to have a venue that helps you with all the details, and makes sure everything is moving according to plan. Farm Road Estate does just that. We have so many wonderful memories, and the property is absolutely beautiful. Our family and friends continue to tell us how much fun they had. We definitely recommend this venue to all couples!

In searching for a wedding venue, my now-husband and I were looking for a scenic Vermont venue with accommodations for our guests to stay onsite for a weekend getaway. Farm Road Estate was exactly that. The property grounds are breathtakingly gorgeous yet peacefully calm. There are multiple options for ceremony sites and countless spots for amazing photos. The inn rooms and guest houses are beautifully updated with a rustic elegance charm. Our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, reception, and farewell breakfast were all held onsite at the Sawmill restaurant and the food was exceptional. The staff were professional, friendly, organized, and an overall pleasure to work with. We had a truly magical weekend we will never forget. I would highly recommend FRE to any couple looking for weekend gateway wedding in Vermont!

We got married at Farm Road on 10/16/21 and it was truly a fall wedding dream come true. Our experience with Kelly, Stephen, Christie and the entire team was very pleasant. The team was professional, accommodating and communicative. We truly got the feel that they were willing to do whatever, whenever to make us and our families happy. Any and all of our requests, big or small, were taken care of quickly and  Stephen, the GM was on site for our tours and tasting and he is a customer service genius. Christopher, the chef, prepared us all of our exceptional meals throughout the weekend and our guests could not stop raving about the food. We hosted all of our wedding events on site: rehearsal dinner, ceremony, reception and Sunday brunch for our guests since no one was local and a good number of our guests stayed on site. Every single one of the events went off without a hitch due to Kelly's remarkable attention to detail. If you are looking for a venue to host several things in one weekend in a stunning location with great food, look no further. The icing on the cake (no pun intended) was when we forgot to bring our wedding cake home and another member of their family whom we had never met, went out of his way to meet us in our home state to give it to us. They have an incredible team and staff that ensured an unforgettable wedding weekend experience.

We couldn't have asked for a more perfect wedding weekend. Jess and the team were there to make sure every detail was executed- we truly felt like we didn't have to lift a finger. Thank you Farm Road for helping us throw an amazing party!

When we first toured Farm Road Estate I had the “this is the place” feeling, and am so glad that we didn’t look back!! We chose FRE for the stunning scenery, the lodgings that allowed our family traveling from NY and NJ to get cozy for the whole weekend, and for the incredible service, amenities and FOOD. My husband and I have been vegan for many years and the chef, Chris didn’t flinch at getting creative to not only accommodate our vegan options, but CRUSH them- there was something for everyone and our guests absolutely raved about the food. We worked with Jess VanOrt, who was our wedding coordinator, who went above and beyond to help us stay organized and see through each and every detail that made the day so, so special. We absolutely loved working with her throughout the process and the day honestly probably would’ve collapsed without her. Randi from the front desk was also a highlight. So many of our family and guests commented on how kind, understanding and easy to work with she was, while they planned for the weekend and checked in. I was able to have the earthy, grounded, twinkly ethereal wedding of my dreams surrounded by nature and very happy people that I love, and I couldn’t imagine our day anywhere else! We look forward to spending many anniversaries visiting and dining at FRE!

When I pictured my wedding, Farm Road Estate was everything and more. Our goal was to have our wedding somewhere that we could get married outside, enjoy the beauty of Vermont, and where our guests could stay on site. Essentially our wedding weekend was like a grown up sleep away at the most beautiful spot with our dearest friends!

From the beginning FRE staff did not disappoint - they welcomed us so warmly when we came to look at the venue (the coziness of the Inn really sold us during our gray November visit), throughout the process Jess, our wedding coordinator was kind, responsive, and we truly felt like we were in great hands, which we were!

People cannot say enough good things about our wedding - the food was amazing, the staff were wonderful, and the setting and accommodations you just can't beat.

10/10 get married here :)
