weddings
Exchange vows under an ancient maple tree, enjoy cocktails in the barnyard, and dine and dance the night away under soaring barn ceilings and twinkling lights.
At Weatherhead Hollow, we’re here to help you celebrate, unwind, and create unforgettable memories. Our historic Southern Vermont Farmstead features accommodations for up to 12 guests and a 10,000 square foot Barn event space, surrounded by rolling fields and mountain views of the hollow — all for you to enjoy.
This isn’t a typical corporate event venue. We specialize in bespoke weddings – with only 12 weddings a year in May through October, we take the time to get to know you and your loved ones. When not hosting events or weddings, Weatherhead Hollow supports the creative economy in Vermont through fully funded artist residencies. Similar to how we support artists and their creativity, as an event venue, we offer an unhurried environment where you will have the freedom to create the celebration you envision.
Take a look at our walk-through video below or our online portfolio on our Gallery page.
The interior design and restoration of the Weatherhead Hollow farmstead is featured in atHome New England Magazine’s 2024 Winter edition and in the book Create the Style You Crave: The Sweet Spot Guide to Home Decor.

Our 10,000 square foot spectacular Bank Barn is your reception and event location that accommodates up to 150 guests for a sit down dinner with plenty of space for a dance floor, live band, DJ, and buffet set up. There’s a separate vintage bar room located in the newly restored corn crib overlooking the barnyard. The 40 x 60 ft space features soaring ceilings with chandeliers, and ample room for both your ceremony and reception. Outdoor ceremonies are very popular as well, and couples may choose to exchange their vows under the spell of our 200+ year old maple tree, in the barnyard, or field with mountain views. Our Barn is ADA accessible.
