Crofter's Green Wedding Barn Reviews

We just had our wedding here at the beginning of August and I cannot recommend this venue enough. Kristin and Daniel are amazing, so helpful, so laid-back, and kind. We were able to set up the wedding with family and friends and it was so wonderful to have the time and opportunity to work together with everyone without any pressure from the venue in terms of requirement or timing. It was such a beautiful wedding, the space is amazing and the area is fantastic. We’re not from northern Vermont, so many of our guests had to travel long distances to come to the wedding. Once everyone arrived and saw Crofter’s Green and the surrounding area, they all told us that they completely understood why we chose the space and how special it was to get to celebrate in it. This was the absolute best venue we could have chosen for our wedding and everyone from our family to our guests was just so excited about the location. We spent the night before the wedding around the fire with our friends and after the reception we had another fire and I got to sit there in my wedding dress just soaking it all in with everyone. Crofter’s Green allows you to have the exact wedding you want, and that was exactly what we were able to do.

Thank you so much Kristin and Daniel! You both are phenomenal hosts! You were so attentive and helpful. Our wedding would be no where as perfect if we had gone with any other venue! The Crofters Green grounds alone are absolutely stunning. Now you take into account the gorgeous barn and adorable cottages we were blown away. Are guest still have not stopped talking about how amazing the venue as a whole was. Richard and I are so grateful to have found you and again cannot thank you enough 💕

Getting married at Crofters Green was truly magical. Our ceremony took place in the woods and couldn’t have been more beautiful. Logistically, having access to the venue for the entire weekend allowed plenty of set up and take down time without interrupting any of the festivities. The property is beautiful and diverse in its landscaping, creating a variety of different settings for photos and events. Kristin and Daniel were extremely responsive, accommodating and supportive throughout the entire weekend. We’re looking forward to continuing to visit Crofters Green throughout the years!

Crofter's Green was such a gorgeous wedding venue! We cannot recommend it enough. And, all of our guests were raving about it too. Kristen & Daniel are amazing owners - They even gave us a little wedding gift. Highly recommend.

My wife and I would very much recommend Crofter's Green. The grounds are picturesque, and Kristen and Daniel are kind, flexible, and excellent communicators. They were also able to connect us with vendors in the area, and even helped us find a fantastic month-of coordinator when ours fell through at the last minute. The barn itself is beautiful. It's a lovely space on its own, but it's also a bit of a canvas for however you want to decorate: you could easily make it looks glamorous, rustic, or elegant. Our pictures turned out great, and while the photographer gets a lot of credit, we also think it'd be tough to take a bad picture at Crofter's!

Sheady Acres was the perfect spot for our wedding. It's a family business run by Shawna and Eamon, who were incredibly helpful and welcoming at every step of the way. They were quick to respond to questions and requests ahead of time, and during the wedding weekend went above and beyond to be helpful making everything run smoothly. The venue is gorgeous and we loved staying in the tiny houses with our friends for the weekend, and hanging out at the fire pit and hot tub for the after-party! This is a perfect location for laid-back couples to feel at home during their wedding weekend. Couldn't recommend it more!

I do not have enough good things to say about Shawna, Eamon, and the entire Sheady Acres family. I could not imagine a more beautiful setting for the best weekend of our lives. They made the whole wedding thing a piece of cake for us, and we left feeling like we had gained some pretty awesome friends in the process! Some of the huge benefits of this venue over others are the on-site accommodations (tiny homes as cute as they come), natural beauty in the barn and surrounding area (on site disc golf, hot tub, fire pit, camping area, swimming holes, no need for over the top decorations!), and the ability to hand chose your vendors and personalize your wedding as much as you want. I could go on and on about how amazing Sheady Acres is - we were married there this past weekend and I will practically be shouting from rooftops and singing their praise for many months to come. I would not change one thing about this place and we will be re-visiting it as much as possible!

Sheady Acres was nothing but spectacular. Everything exceeded our expectations from the beginning to when we left. Shawna and Eamon were so flexible and always quick on the email responses. As soon as we saw this venue we knew we had to get married here. Words can not explain how beautiful and magical this place is. Not only did we score with being married here we came out with two new friends. The hospitality from the owners were above and beyond and we could feel the love and never felt like we were on our own. The only option is to go see it for yourself and meet Shawna and Eamon.

I just got married here on September 30th, It went perfectly. This venue is amazing, not only is it incredibly beautiful but designed so efficiently for a wedding venue it makes everything so easy. The tiny houses are so cute and convenient, plus they have all the luxuries of home. I stayed in the Irish Farm house, and even though its a tiny house it was really spacious, there was tons of room for my family and I to all get ready and hangout before the ceremony. There are so many options on where to actually have your ceremony, all just as beautiful as the next, we choose a spot in the woods above a stream that was magical. They also have an arbor set up at the edge of the field for larger weddings that would be amazing. The timber framed barn where we had our reception is a piece of art in itself, you don't need to do much to this space to impress your guest, its stunning. The venue has an impressive amount of tables and chairs on site for you to use which is super convenient, and saves you tons of money as far as rentals go. The owners are the sweetest people, really reliable and easy going, they have it super together. I highly recommend this venue!

I seriously cannot put into words how in love I am with Sheady Acres. My husband and I had our wedding there this last weekend and it was absolutely amazing. We did our welcome dinner there as well and it was beautiful. Shawna and Eamon are extremely flexible and accommodating. Go visit the property... it is stunning and the website does not do it justice. The tiny houses are adorable as well.

We rented Sheady Acres from September 7th – 10th of 2017. We could just say Sheady Acres is a nice spot with many benefits and friendly service but this would not be fair. We cannot say enough good things about Sheady Acres. First of all, Eamon and Shawna have put love, sweat, time and I am sure some tears into building Sheady Acres into a beautiful location to be married at in the State of Vermont.
Jay Peak Resort is right down the road and is great spot for a cookie cutter wedding but we wanted a more hands on approach, with our own special touch and no rush on our wedding day.
We invited our wedding party to stay in the tiny houses on the Sheady Acres property for the weekend. The tiny houses are not only well crafted, clean and cozy; they also make for a great background during pictures on the day of the wedding.
Eamon runs around the night of the wedding taking care of questions from the caterer & music person, trash & bottle removal. He is very helpful with ideas for set up prior to the wedding.
We may have over whelmed ourselves a little with the amount of things we wanted to accomplish on our wedding day but it did not matter. We enjoyed the amount of time we spent on the property, which other wedding venues/locations did not offer. We did not want a venue that rushes us at the start of the rehearsal dinner the night before until the end of the wedding day. We did not feel hurried to set up and take down, which was a relief. Your wedding day can be stressful enough, so why would you want any extra stress? The atmosphere we & Sheady Acres created, allowed us to feel calm and relaxed and just so damn excited to share our special day with friends and family. If we had to do it all over again, Sheady Acres would still be the place for us to celebrate.

Eamon and Shawna made our wedding the best day of our lives! They were extremely friendly and laid back while still being professional. Our guests are still raving about the venue. The barn is gorgeous and the mountain scene was ideal for photographs. I can't say enough good things about Shéady Acres. Thank you!

Sheady Acres was the perfect venue for our wedding. My husband and I live in Washington, DC but knew we wanted to get married in Vermont (his home state). But with a busy schedule, we weren't able to visit the area often and planned the majority of our wedding from afar.

We found a few other venues but they were always missing "something". When I found photos of Sheady Acres everything looked perfect. I sent an email inquiry and got a phone call from Shawna later that evening. We talked for over an hour and she was so down to earth and honest that I think I fell in love with her as much as the venue. We ended up booking without ever visiting and I couldn't have been happier.

The fact that you get the five cabins for three nights in addition to the barn for the wedding meant that we got an AMAZING value. Friends and family were able to stay onsite, we grilled out, hot tubbed, played disc golf, and went on hikes before the wedding day. It was a great opportunity for our friends and family to bond before the big day.

Shawna and Eamon were such a pleasure to work with during the whole process. We actually hired Shawna to help with onsite coordination the day of the wedding and she truly went above and beyond. She helped coordinate rentals, spoke with other vendors, and assisted setting up/breaking down the barn - all while being super lovely (my family adored her and Eamon!).

The venue itself is insanely beautiful. We got married outside the barn under an arch with peak fall foliage, and then partied in the barn until the wee hours of the next morning. The barn is rustic but elegant and they let us decorate however we wanted. Just some lights and flowers did trick. We rented two heaters which kept the barn nice and warm; unlike many other weddings we've been to with older barns.

The whole day went off without a hitch and are even planning on coming back with friends and family year after year to relive the day. If you are considering SA - just do it!

Sheady Acres was right for us in so many ways. The wedding barn is spectacular and truly beautiful without any additional decor - although we did of course decorate. The setting is pristine, the tiny houses adorable, the amenities are all there and it made our wedding experience a truly enjoyable one. I'm from the area but my husband is from California and having the tiny houses on the property meant that all of our closest friends and family could be at our side for the entire weekend. We talked to Shawna and Eamon and they agreed that we could host a Friday night Welcome Party on the property with a small additional rental fee. We felt like Sheady Acres provided everything we needed to host a full wedding weekend - not just a single hectic evening. We had the Welcome party, wedding, lawn games, bonfires, and all sorts of fun times on this property. Shawna and Eamon were available and helpful to us every step of the way. Shawna had some great recommendations about which vendors work best at this particular venue and Eamon knew exactly how the string lights would look best on the barn. Listen to them! They've hosted dozens of weddings by now and they have no ulterior motives about their suggestions other than helping you to have the perfect wedding. Thanks Shawna and Eamon. It was perfect and every single one of our guests said it was a beautiful and unique event unlike any wedding they had been to before!

Shéady Acres (Eamon & Shawna) saved our wedding! We had originally planned everything at Burke Mountain last year for a 9/10/16 wedding. Save the dates went out, deposit paid! Management called us the end of March to say that they weren't sure if they "could guarantee" that they would be open - and that we would have to come up with a "plan B". This all due to the owners being accused misusing millions, no big deal. We scrambled around the Vermont area looking for something unique that would be available. When we contacted Shéady Acres, they wrote the most sincere note to say not only were they available...but they would work with us as we tried to get our refund back. They held our date on our word alone so that we could make arrangements to come and check everything out. Once we got up there – we knew this was it! It has 5 one-of-a-kind cottages that would perfectly house the entire wedding party and then some, a gorgeous barn with big sliding doors, a rustic fire pit area and views of the mountains from their front and back yard. The cost included all these amenities for 3 days!
The whole gang was able to trickle in from the Boston area sitting around the fire, soaking in the hot tub, playing music and exploring the little swimming hole nearby. The cabins are cozy, clean, and equipped with anything you might need for an awesome stay. The picturesque property made for incredible wedding photos and during the reception our guests could sit by the fire, hang by the outdoor bar or rip it up the dance floor in the barn. It was perfect in every way. Eamon & Shawna also hooked us up with the most incredible vendors: Montgomery Catering Company who cooked right on site. The food was delicious and the chef/owner Dave and his staff were the kindest people on the planet. We also had flowers done by Olga Lermontov which were out of this world! Overall, it was the BEST decision we made to get involved with this whole Montgomery crew. Look no further! This is the place to be!

Sheady Acres made our wedding day the most special, stress free, romantic, and just flippin perfect day ever. They are super detail oriented, and also everything on the property is simplistically beautiful and kid and dog friendly!! Eamon and Shawna are well known in their community and have great relationships with local caterers, bar tenders, and bands and are helpful in all aspects of wedding planning. Not many wedding venues allow you and your clan to basically move in for the weekend, dogs and all, to make set up and clean up as stress free as possible. All we have to say is WE LOVE SHEADY ACRES!!!! THANK YOU TIMES A MILLION.

If you are questioning whether or not to book your wedding at Sheady Acres, stop questioning it and just do it! I promise you won't regret it. My husband and I found Sheady Acres by what seemed like an accident after the first venue we had booked cancelled on us five months before our wedding. After that, we were scrambling and when we discovered Sheady Acres we could not believe our luck. This place was not exactly what we had had in mind, it was BETTER. Everything about the property is incredible, the cottages are adorable and clean and provided us with such a neat experience to have some of our family and wedding party staying right next door to us for three days. The barn is breathtaking on its own and with a few decorations it becomes something you would expect to see featured in a wedding magazine. Shawna and Eamon were so kind, helpful, and charismatic. Throughout the weekend we did not see them much, but when we needed something or had a question they were there. There is a disc golf course on the property that my husband and his groomsman played the morning of the wedding, there is a hot tub for guests staying in the cottages that helped me relax the night before the wedding, AND some of the cottages are dog friendly so we were able to have our four footed children stay with us too. The property allows you the chance to plan a day that is so special and unique to you and your soon to be spouse. Our guests were in awe of this spot and my husband and I cannot stop reminiscing about the entire weekend, it was just so incredible.

My husband and I just had our wedding here and we loved it! Both Eamon and Shawna were very responsive and accommodated us throughout the weekend. The place was a great value for the price and it was nice to have it all to ourselves and guests for three days!! My husband and I wanted a rustic feel to our wedding and we got it! The barn was absolutely beautiful and all our guests loved the place. The cottages were also very nice and well maintained. I would highly recommend this place to anyone for either a fun wedding or a nice place to stay for the weekend.

A little something about Shèady acres.... Our daughter's wedding was held there this past June. It was like walking into a fairytale story book from the get-go. The grounds are absolutely breathtaking. The themed cottages each tell a story and are impeccably clean. Our daughter's wedding was held outside the wedding barn on a beautiful sunny day. After the ceremony we all proceeded into the beautiful, spacious barn for an early evening dinner and continued to dance the night away. We also had a late night campfire and sat around playing guitars and singing. The five cottages were included in our wedding weekend for bridal party and or family. Our hosts, Eamon and Shawna are wonderful. Aside from being so very nice, They are quick to respond when contacted and make themselves available to us as much or as little as needed.. We love Shèady Acres!

A wedding at Sheady Acres offers a connection with nature. Graced upon its grassy knolls overlooking the cold hollow mountains, you will set your eyes on one of the best sunsets in Vermont. The barn envokes a feeling of yester year with it's hand built, majestic timber frame. Any gathering here will enlighten the senses.

Remarkable wedding venue, beautiful area! Shawna and Eamon O'Shea were gracious hosts. The grounds were gorgeous
It was my only daughter, Erica's wedding and Shawna and Eamon went above and beyond to assist her in every way.
They introduced her to Olga who designed the most breathraking and unique arrangements all locally grown . Just beautiful.
And Dave from Montgomery Catering who prepared a delicious and beautiful wedding dinner. All of them were professional, courteous and reasonably priced. We danced and laughed the night away! Highly recommend this for a memorable occasion! They were the best!

Before our wedding, my married friends warned me that something during the wedding will go wrong but don't stress about it and just remember to enjoy the day. Well, absolutely nothing went wrong and our wedding was even more fun than I imagined. Eamon and Shawna were amazing hosts, making sure everything was going smoothly so that we could just focus on the fun parts. They went above and beyond! I couldn't be more grateful that they decided to build this magical place. Sheady Acres is truly a gem, and will always hold a special place in my heart.

Sheady Acres was exactly what we were looking for. It's the unique space that we were looking for to make our day special. From the moment we stopped and talked to Shawna and Eamon I knew that was where we were going to get married. They are such amazing people and helped us with whatever we needed to make our day perfect! We highly recommend them if you want to have an amazing day!

Beautiful venue for a wedding, the barn is spectacular, and the accommodations were perfect!! The owners, Shawna and Eamon were extremely accommodating and made sure everything ran perfectly. If you are looking for a unique and stress free event venue, this is the place!!

My husband and I were looking for a truly unique experience and we couldn't have found a better place to get married. Eamon and Shawna were amazing hosts, making us feel completely at home. They made it possible to plan our wedding exactly as we wanted it, supporting us every step of the way. Anything we needed, they were on it! I highly recommend hosting any type of event at their site, it was beautiful and fun!
