Beautiful venue with wonderful coordinators
My husband Andrew and I had an absolutely fantastic experience with the Grafton Inn for our early May wedding, and a truly joyous experience. From our very visit, through to our tasting, and the constant helpful communication from Olivia, Roma and Angela – the team at the Grafton Inn were incredible. They communicated promptly, answered all my questions, were always very helpful, and came prepared with suggestions. I felt like the really listened to Andrew and I and put real effort into bringing our vision for our wedding to life. The Grafton Inn has so many beautiful spaces, all of our guests were able to stay at the Inn, and it was so wonderful to have the whole weekend full of events in one spot. Their team is highly professional, they are so organized, they had timelines and logistics all locked down. It rained and thunder-stormed the day of our wedding, and everyone pivoted so quickly to setting up the beautiful indoor space we had designated as our backup. No panic, no chaos, just calm execution of the change in plans.
The food is INCREDIBLE – I really don’t think I could say enough about how delicious the food is. Dinner was just delightful, and the breakfast is soooo good too. We had multiple guests comment that it was the best wedding meal they’d ever had. Andrew and I were able to pick a menu that we really loved after our tasting, and a menu that easily accommodated all of our guests. We came up with fun custom cocktails ourselves and got a response of “no problem – sounds great!”. There were a variety of dietary restrictions and everyone was accommodated smoothly. The whole experience of working with the Grafton Inn really felt so personal and so compassionate. They made planning so much less stressful that I had thought it would be, and every single one of their recommended vendors knocked it out of the park. That was such a bonus added value that I hadn't been counting on, and it really helped us plan a wonderful event.
I’d recommend this venue very highly, and I know Andrew and I will be coming back for weekend trips in the winter or summer to ski or mountain bike and reminisce about our magical weekend.My husband Andrew and I had an absolutely fantastic experience with the Grafton Inn for our early May wedding, and a truly joyous experience.

Wedding Weekend
We had an amazing 70 person wedding at The Grafton Inn! All guests were able to stay on site, which was an important detail to us. We started the weekend Friday with a pizza dinner in the garden under twinkle lights with live acoustic guitar from Don Dawson. During the day Saturday guests were able to walk around town, play tennis, and interact as if we were in our own little village.
Our ceremony and reception Saturday were perfect! We loved how everything is walkable and there were many good locations for pictures with different backdrops. The food is outstanding (from dinners to the buffet breakfast each morning) and our guests commented on this. We had our reception in the Phelps Barn and had plenty of room even with a 7 piece band. The dance floor was a great size and luckily was full all night. Fast Pony Flowers did an excellent job making the barn warm and cozy with many candelabras and also beautiful with fresh flowers and floral chandeliers.
Overall we are so happy with our choice to have our wedding at The Grafton Inn! We believe it is a great value for all that you get (and you get so much!) We feel it was a unique, memorable experience for us and our guests. We wouldn't change a single thing!
Coordinators Roma, Angela, and Olivia made every detail of our weekend so seamless! Even before the weekend they were very helpful and responsive to all our emails. It was great to work with people that have run so many weddings because we get to benefit from all of their experience. They were kind and supportive all weekend to us and our family members, which was very much appreciated.We had an amazing 70 person wedding at The Grafton Inn!

The Grafton Inn has it all: Location, Quality, and Follow through.
Grafton, VT is unsurpassed in its beauty and historic charm. But the quality and tradition which The Grafton Inn has in all it does: food, facility and staff is what set it apart from the rest. All that The Grafton Inn does, they deliver on, right down to the cake: "truly the best cake I've ever tasted"!The Grafton Inn has it all: Location, Quality, and Follow through.

Book the venue, book the inn...book the town?!?
Getting married at The Grafton Inn was the best choice we could have made while in the nascent stages of planning, as they take all of the guesswork out of the process and streamline the whole shebang for you! The venue choices are plentiful, you book the entire Inn...and then you add houses and additional points throughout the town to allow for a sprawling and cohesive event. It's amazing! The locals know what they're about, as weekends for half the year are known to be dedicated to weddings, so AirBnB rentals and barn/event spaces are plentiful - and usually booked up! You couldn't ask for a more picturesque scene from a Rockwell painting, Grafton's closest competition IMO.
The planners, Olivia and Roma, are a well-oiled machine that are excellent at reducing the stress and anxiety that come with attempting to plan a wedding, and they were very delicate and patient with us as we constantly got in our own way with stream-of-consciousness, grandiose, complexities and consistently missed deadlines. They knew how to gently steer us back on track, recommend known winning ideas, and keep us calm from the leadup straight-through the final day. Truly, we would have been lost without their guidance and support, and we CANNOT thank them enough!
The entire staff - front desk (looking at you, Jenn!), waitstaff, cooks, housekeeping, bartenders, porters, etc, etc - really showed the professionalism, experience and care that you would want for such a special event. The grounds were gorgeous, the food absolutely AMAZING, and each room was unique and charming. Everyone was friendly and a joy to work with!
If you want an amazing VT experience for the best day of your life...look no further and call Olivia today.Getting married at The Grafton Inn was the best choice we could have made while in the nascent stages of planning, as they take all of the guesswork out of the process and streamline the whole shebang for you!

The Best Wedding Venue
The Grafton Inn is an incredible venue. My wife and I got married there about two weeks ago and we are still getting compliments on how amazing and unique it was and how all of our friends want to do the exact same thing. The venue has multiple gorgeous sites for rehearsal dinners, reception and ceremony depending on the vibe you want and the staff at the Inn couldn't be nicer or more helpful. Leading up to the wedding, Olivia, Roma and the other wedding coordinators do an amazing job of helping you come up with a blueprint for your weekend. They were incredibly helpful and responsive to us in figuring out all of the details that go into a weekend like this and take a very structured approach to help you nail down all the details on the right timeline for everything to happen as smoothly as possible. The Inn will have you for an overnight to do a wedding tasting of all of their delicious food (Seriously, the chef here is amazing). Last but not least is the day of coordination - we had Olivia and Roma helping us out on our wedding weekend and my wife and I seriously didn't have to think about a single logistic all weekend. Olivia and Roma handled everything exceptionally well, without us having to lift a finger, even when we had to make some last minute decisions because of weather. We showed up with a number of random decorations and guest books and point-and-shoot cameras and other stuff and Olivia and Roma took it all from us and just made it all happen. I couldn't recommend them more and we would do it exactly the same all over again if it came down to it.The Grafton Inn is an incredible venue.

Elopement ceremony
Our wedding at The Grafton Inn was nothing short of magical. The barn was absolutely stunning—rustic, charming, and the perfect blend of elegance and comfort. It created such a warm and inviting atmosphere that our guests are still talking about!
A huge shoutout to Roma, our incredible coordinator, who truly went above and beyond for us. From the first planning meeting to the final send-off, she was organized, calm, and so kind. She made the entire experience stress-free and made sure every detail was taken care of. We genuinely couldn’t have done it without her!
If you're looking for a venue with character, beauty, and an amazing team, this is the place. Our day was perfect, and we’ll forever be grateful.

The best day of our lives
We cannot recommend The Grafton Inn highly enough. From the time we first reached out, Olivia was extremely responsive and that never wavered. She was always available to answer our smallest questions and guide us throughout the process. Along with Roma and Jenn, the staff made the whole weekend go smoothly. They are true professionals, and they are also kind. Some of the other venues we visited felt like a “wedding factory,” churning out multiple events in one weekend. Not so at Grafton. We had the benefit of an experienced staff, without any of the churn. We had the whole place to ourselves for the entire weekend. In short, they know what they are doing, and you will be in very good hands.
The Inn’s grounds are something special. The buildings are beautiful and historic. The rooms are comfortable and well-appointed. There are inviting fireplaces and reading nooks for people to catch up throughout the weekend. The Inn was able to accommodate many of our guests, which was a big plus since people were traveling from far. Once they arrived, all of our events were within walking distance, and it was so fun to see the little town of Grafton come alive with all the people we love most in the world. This part of Vermont is truly magical -- it was lush and verdant for our early spring wedding. It was the perfect setting for this special moment.We cannot recommend The Grafton Inn highly enough.

A True Intimate New England Wedding
When Chris and I began planning, we knew we wanted New England charm with an intimate setting where everyone could stay on the property. The Grafton Inn was the first and only venue we visited, it checked everything off our list we were looking for. As you drive in and walk around the town, you can't help but feel like you are in a Hallmark movie. Everything was charming and quintessential Vermont - from the grounds, shops, and the different types of rooms and houses offered. What makes this place even more special are the people and staff. Coordinating with Olivia and the team was incredible - they take care of everything and there was ZERO stress the weekend of the wedding. And THE FOOD, I can't tell you enough how talented the chef and the team are - the variety of selections really allowed us to create a personalized menu that showed our guests more of who we are and what we love. Our family and friends keep telling us how much fun they had during our wedding weekend and getting to experience stick season in Vermont. We envisioned what our dream wedding was and The Grafton Inn team was able to make it a reality, we can't thank them enough!When Chris and I began planning, we knew we wanted New England charm with an intimate setting where everyone could stay on the property.

Vermont Wedding Bliss
The Grafton Inn and staff helped make our fall wedding dream a reality. They were very accommodating to our needs and provided instant feedback to any questions or concerns. They took care of all the decoration set up and tear down and shared our vision for the whole weekend. They provided extra amenities free of charge and were even able to make our welcome party talent show a success. The staff was very responsive to any dietary restrictions. We couldn’t ask for a better venue/team/staff members to make the weekend perfect!The Grafton Inn and staff helped make our fall wedding dream a reality.

Phenomenal Experience
Working with Roma, Olivia and Angela was seamless! From the very beginning, they went above and beyond to ensure that our wedding weekend was exactly how we envisioned it to be. What impressed us the most was how thoughtful and helpful they were -- we had an intimate, private ceremony in the Grafton woods followed by a beautiful wedding reception at the inn -- and they were very helpful with advice for timing, coordination of our welcome entrance, and making sure the décor was exactly how we wanted it to be. Also, as an LGBTQ couple, the Grafton Inn (and Grafton!) was incredibly open and welcoming. The trio of Roma, Olivia and Angela were always open, kind and inclusive. We are very grateful to have booked with them. Thank you!Working with Roma, Olivia and Angela was seamless!

Thank you Grafton Inn for the most beautiful Vermont wedding of our dreams!!!
If you want your wedding to feel relaxed, romantic, intentional, and unique to you, pick The Grafton Inn.
When my fiance and I began looking for our wedding venue, we were overwhelmed with where to start. We booked several venue tours in Vermont and New England, however, The Grafton Inn was the first and last one we went to. After touring the grounds with Olivia, we knew this was the place. The Grafton Inn is such a quintessential Vermont location. It's picturesque, charming, and has such a special feeling about it that puts you at ease.
We also wanted a place where everyone stays and no one has to shuttle to and from events. Once you're there, everything is within walking distance in the charming town of Grafton.
Coordinating and bringing our vision to life was easy with the help of Olivia, Roma, and Angela. They were quick and responsive to all of our questions throughout the process, not to mention extremely kind and welcoming to us and all of our guests. Our family and friends won't stop raving about the entire experience at our wedding, from the Inn and beautiful Vermont location, to the delicious food, and wonderful staff. It truly was everything we had wanted! Thank you, Olivia, Roma, and Angela!!!!If you want your wedding to feel relaxed, romantic, intentional, and unique to you, pick The Grafton Inn.

We want to get married here every year!
We could not speak more highly of The Grafton Inn, the team, and frankly the entire town! We had the best experience creating our dream wedding weekend with events Thursday through Saturday. The Grafton Inn team supported every idea we had and executed to perfection. Almost every one of our guests went out of their way to tell us they were having the best experience with the Grafton team and staff, and that this was the best wedding they have ever been to! We could not recommend this venue with any more enthusiasm; we already spoke about planning an anniversary event there in the future! Thank you for creating the most amazing memory for the most special event of our lives! ~Kirby & JamesWe could not speak more highly of The Grafton Inn, the team, and frankly the entire town!

Beautiful Wedding Thanks to the Grafton Inn
My wife and I got married at the Grafton Inn this past August. We chose the venue due to having family in Grafton and because we fell in love with the rustic charm of the town and Inn. I come from a big family, so the planning process was no small task. The Grafton Inn team; Olivia, Angela, and Roma, were an absolute pleasure to work with, exemplifying professionalism, responsiveness, kindness, and enthusiasm at every step. They helped make the wedding planning go as smoothly as possible, providing a list of excellent vendors, checking in with us regularly, and helping resolve any issues as they arose. The weekend of our wedding saw some inclement weather, but Angela and Roma reassured us and walked everyone in the wedding party through the plan if rain came. We also had a last-minute addition of two guests, which they were very kind to accommodate. On the day of our wedding, we were blessed with beautiful weather. From start to finish, the entire day went as smoothly as we could have hoped for, with the entire Gratfon Inn team running a seamless operation. Everything from the ceremony to the food, music, and atmosphere was sublime. The Grafton Inn team not only helped us have an incredible day, they seemed to genuinely enjoy it themselves. Feedback from our friends and family has been overwhelmingly positive, with many saying ours was the best wedding they had ever attended. My wife and I could not be happier with our experience and strongly recommend booking the Grafton Inn to anyone hoping to have an intimate, joyous, and meaningful wedding.My wife and I got married at the Grafton Inn this past August.

Everything from the ceremony to the food, music, and atmosphere was sublime. The Grafton Inn team not only helped us have an incredible day, they seemed to genuinely enjoy it themselves. Feedback from our friends and family has been overwhelmingly positive, with many saying ours was the best wedding they had ever attended. My wife and I could not be happier with our experience and strongly recommend booking the Grafton Inn to anyone hoping to have an intimate, joyous, and meaningful wedding. -

Magical Day
The Grafton Inn is a magical place in a stunning Vermont setting, but it is the people working there who made us feel like our wedding was the only one they hosted that year. Olivia worked with us on all the details leading up to our wedding. She has a warm communication style and an amazing attention to detail . We found out a week before our wedding that Olivia had to tend to personal matters and would not be our point person at our wedding . Angela seamlessly stepped into this role and ensured that our wedding day was about as perfect as a day could be . She lead the rehearsal for the ceremony the night before and even packed my bags of confetti. Angela was always there when we needed her. We can't wait to return to the Grafton Inn!

Amazing Wedding Weekend
Our experience with the Grafton Inn was truly remarkable. From the moment we reached out to Olivia that we wanted to move forward with having our wedding at this venue, everything ran smoothly. Both wedding coordinators, Olivia and Roma, were incredibly responsive, often getting back to our emails within the day. The Inn was even more beautiful on the day of our wedding than when we had toured the site, and we were thrilled with all of the accommodations for ourselves and our guests. What really made the wedding day special was the staff at the Inn, everyone treated us cordially and went above and beyond to make sure us and our guests enjoyed the weekend. For us, it was important to have a wedding location where we were close to all of our family and friends, so that we could enjoy their company in the days leading up to, and following, the ceremony. Grafton was the perfect venue for this purpose, everything was walking distance, charming, and logistically apt for a wedding. We couldn't speak higher of the venue and staff!Our experience with the Grafton Inn was truly remarkable.

The Perfect Vermont Wedding Venue
We could not have been happier with our wedding at the Grafton Inn! As we are not big into event planning and live in Texas, we were looking for an all-inclusive venue that handled catering, lodging, and coordination and the Grafton Inn was the perfect fit. We opted for one of the winter micro-wedding packages, which was perfect for our 60 guests. A number of our friends had never been to Vermont, and Grafton really provided the quintessential experience, with the cheese shop and sugar house down the street, the trail center, and the quaint downtown. Olivia, the wedding director, was so helpful and wonderful to work with and all of the staff were super friendly. It really is the perfect wedding venue, and we could not recommend it more!!We could not have been happier with our wedding at the Grafton Inn!

Wedding of Our Dreams
From our first meeting with Olivia, the wedding coordinator for the Grafton Inn, to end of the wedding night, she made planning a wedding weekend very easy and stress free, giving us the wedding we both have been dreaming of.
My husband and I had a very clear vision how we wanted the weekend to flow and give our guests the best possible experience.
The Grafton Inn is in the center of a small quiet town and most buildings around the main Inn are owned by the Grafton Inn. It really felt like we had "rented" the town of Grafton for two days.
We fell in love with the idea that we were the only bride and groom all weekend and that our guests were basically the only people throughout the whole Inn.
From Rehearsal Dinner, full breakfast each morning, Welcome Reception the Friday night before the wedding, to the main event, the food and service was 5 stars. Over a month later, we are still getting comments from our guests about our wedding being the best they have ever attended.
They worked with us on making sure our wedding dream did come true. We wanted to be outside and getting married in December, they worked with us until the very last minute to make sure that happened. It was not like your traditional wedding, where you are in one banquet hall all night.
Each event space brought its own magic and beauty.
Olivia and her staff listen to everything that we wanted. Walking into each space, it was like she had read our minds and set up the spaces just as we would have if we had done it ourselves. They even broke everything down for us to make it super easy to pack up on Sunday morning and go back home.
We could have not asked for a better start to as husband and wife. Thank you so much Olivia and the Grafton Inn.

Very Vermont and very cute intimate wedding
We had an excellent experience with our wedding here. The burden of having to plan every little detail was lifted by Olivia, our wedding coordinator. We chose the food, wine, apps, basic color schemes and locations and everything was handled for us. It was great. Our family and close friends stayed for two nights and everyone said they had a great time, and best of all they were even able to bring their dogs since Grafton Inn has dog friendly rooms. We were pretty flexible with what we wanted but there seemed to be some flexibility with choices and timing because we had such an intimate wedding but we aren’t groomzillas so it wasn’t a huge deal. It was nice getting married in front of the fire place and having a cocktail hour prior to dinner in the little bar in front of the fireplace at the old pine bar was super nice too. Everything was still decorated for Christmas, including the town, so we were able to have a snowy, cozy winter wedding and it was perfect. I have no complaints, everything went smoothly, planning was super easy and it was a lovely little wedding that didn’t destroy our bank account. (Which means a nice honeymoon and an extra international trip this year) Also this location is gay friendly and we had zero problems as a same sex couple getting married here.We had an excellent experience with our wedding here.

Better than our dreams!!
Olivia, Angela, Kirk, and the whole team at Grafton Inn were incredible and amazing!! From the first visit we could tell that Grafton was a special place. Everyone we met were so kind and welcoming. Right from the beginning of our planning Olivia helped us create the vision for our wedding that we didn't even know was possible. Leading up to the wedding and during the wedding weekend Olivia and Angela were right there to help guide us along the way. They made us feel relaxed and at home and created a wedding that was more incredible than we imagined. The whole weekend was filled with love, connection, and celebration and we could not have imagined having this experience anywhere else. Words can not capture how special this place is!Olivia, Angela, Kirk, and the whole team at Grafton Inn were incredible and amazing!!

The Vermont wedding of our dreams
The Grafton Inn was the perfect venue for our wedding, and I could not recommend them highly enough to anyone looking for a seamless, organized, quintessential Vermont wedding. Olivia and Angela make an incredible team and it was enjoyable working with them throughout the entire process. The venue is incredibly unique with lots of different choices for where to host each event, making it very customizable. The food is amazing, and all of the staff are so kind and helpful. We got so many comments that this was the best wedding anyone ever went to. Thank you so much to the grafton inn for making our day so special!The Grafton Inn was the perfect venue for our wedding, and I could not recommend them highly enough to anyone looking for a seamless, organized, quintessential Vermont wedding.

A perfectly relaxed, beautiful fall weekend at the Grafton Inn!
I cannot recommend this place highly enough!! It's such a unique experience, having a venue that's both elegant and cozy. The Grafton Inn offers quintessential Vermont charm that's not just bougie, but actually rich with history. Having the lodging/restaurant/Phelps barn/outdoor spaces all within walking distance, it really feels like you and all your favorite people commandeer a small town for the weekend. We saw friends and family every time we crossed the street or stopped by the inn for coffee.
We were married last Saturday (September 30th), and our guests were gushing about the comfort of the rooms (including so many spacious suites!), the quality of the food, and the friendliness of everyone working there.
Olivia in particular was SO helpful as a coordinator. She was our point of contact for over two years as we planned our wedding. Not only does she understand the venue inside and out (quite literally!) and help you build a timeline, she also addressed our vendors' questions and had an uncanny way of knowing exactly where she was needed at any given moment.
Everything ran so smoothly on our wedding day that we didn't even consider the schedule, and whether we were following it. We got to be fully present and enjoy the day, the toasts, our vows to each other...and, of course, the food and drink.
I'm a planner/over-thinker, and there were STILL so many details that didn't occur to me until I noticed...Grafton has it covered. Like re-using our arbor flowers on the dessert table and our centerpieces at breakfast the next morning. Or saving us a little plate of apps (and stashing a cupcake for me behind in the bar!) in case we were too distracted chatting with our guests to eat. We had some very COVID-cautious folks with us, and they were so understanding and flexible in serving a few meals outside on the patio.
The bridal party in particular felt VERY pampered staying at White Gates house - a gorgeous property with a large patio that overlooks a meadow and babbling brook. Somehow everything about Grafton Inn was more perfect than this over-thinker even planned, from the cheese theme of the town (I'm such a cheese lover that my now-husband buys me a cheese subscription each year for xmas!) to the grand piano in the reading room of White Gates (I also play the piano!)...many, many thanks to the entire team at Grafton Inn for a wonderful weekend that we (and our guests) will always remember!

The Grafton Inn is the best kept secret in the northeast!
Olivia and her team were so easy to work with while planning for our son and daughter-in-law’s fall rehearsal dinner. Olivia made the entire process a pleasure. From the clear communication, delicious menu selections, entertainment, lodging and overall feel of the Inn - it was perfect in every way. Nothing felt cookie cutter. It was unique and personalized just the way they requested!Olivia and her team were so easy to work with while planning for our son and daughter-in-law’s fall rehearsal dinner.

Get married at the Grafton Inn!
We cannot recommend the Grafton Inn enough! We got married there a few weeks ago and are still hearing from our guests about how much fun they had, how great the staff was, and how delicious the food was. The weekend was beautiful and felt so personalized to us and our friends and family. The lead-up to the wedding was a breeze. Olivia and the whole team were so responsive and prepared. All of our friends and family couldn't believe how relaxed we were about the whole wedding process - but the Grafton Inn made it so easy!
We'll be going back to the Grafton Inn for years to come. We highly suggest you do too!We cannot recommend the Grafton Inn enough!

The Grafton Inn is the BEST!
Our wedding a few weeks ago at the Grafton Inn was absolutely perfect! We're so grateful for Olivia and the team for such a spectacular weekend. From the venue itself, to the customization and planning, to the sequence of the day itself -- all went off without a hitch.
The whole weekend felt very special and personalized - we truly felt like we were "taking over the town", as most of the guests stayed at the Inn or airbnbs in the area. So throughout the weekend our guests were all coming and going, congregating on the lovely front porch for drinks and hanging. Or off to the General Store next door where they'd run into other guests and meet some of our other family members/friends. It was such a quaint setting! It also worked out really well for 120 guests (fairly sizeable group), where during the reception the dance floor was bustling and lively & those taking a break from dancing could get some air outside on the patio. The night before welcome party at the Outdoor Center was also fabulous and looked stunning with string lights and tables; and of course beautiful views by the river. Multiple guests referred to the whole weekend as "intimate" which I think describes the Grafton really well :)
Everyone LOVED the food too (worth a call out in this review!), especially the duck and steak entrees. And all of the passed apps & those featuring cheese! Really high quality food all around.
Olivia and Angela also were pros at making sure both the welcome party and the wedding day festivities were taken care of ahead of time so we could enjoy a stress-free wedding weekend. We basically handed over any personalized/DIY touches (like a collection of photos to hang up, etc) and they took it from there! We felt confident that everything was in good hands and didn't have to worry.
Throughout the whole planning process and the weekend itself they were super organized, knowledgeable, and and their expertise in this whole wedding thing clearly showed!! Everything was seamless.

Grafton Inn offers a top-notch team and a turn-key experience
We couldn't be happier about our experience with the Grafton Inn. It's a beautiful venue in a quaint Vermont town, and the on-site wedding coordinator worked with us closely for the years-long process of planning our wedding (we postponed several times due to covid). Almost all of our guests stayed at the inn, and they loved it. The Inn also takes care of catering; for us, they managed a small family dinner on Thursday, a big welcome dinner on Friday, and the reception dinner on Saturday. Everyone we interacted with at the inn was kind, supportive, helpful, and thoughtful. And they didn't miss a detail from years' worth of emails, down to the kid who wanted salad with dressing on the side. We highly recommend them.We couldn't be happier about our experience with the Grafton Inn.
