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!

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!!

Our wedding was perfect!

Olivia, Angela and all of the Grafton staff are absolute rockstars.

From the time we met Olivia to tour the property we knew The Grafton would be a fit. The buildings are classic and unpretending, the staff is charming, food is delicious, and at no point did we feel pressured into adding things to our weekend we didn’t need.

The Inn is also well-connected to the local meeting house and other vendors, so the entire weekend was easy on us and our guests. Everyone who attended the wedding said it was fun, easy and cozy which was exactly what we wanted in our Vermont winter wedding. The town is just far enough off the beaten path compared to nearby Ludlow or Stratton so it has a more low-key feel, but still convenient for out of town guests who have to fly into Hartford or Burlington and easily accessible from Route 11 and 35 which are paved and always safe to drive.

We can’t wait to celebrate anniversaries at this place. Highly recommend to anyone considering a wedding in Vermont.

The Grafton Inn is a favorite choice among many of my clients. It is the perfect location for a luxury destination wedding. Reflections I quite often hear from their guests are that everything about their experience from the moment of conception to the day of departure is of the utmost excellence. With five star restaurants, and stellar customer service. Many couples choose the Grafton Inn, as it offers an intimate family experience, and can accommodate their out of town guests in a unique community setting. With its on site housing tucked along the quaint streets of Grafton, everyone is close, lending itself to a charming experience for the wedding party and their families.
