Style Your Reception Your Way at The Grafton Inn

From elegant to rustic and everything in between, keep the celebration going with a Vermont reception at The Grafton Inn. Dining, dancing, and gracious accommodations provide the perfect send-off. After your meal, it’s time for dancing and celebrating in one of our charming reception facilities. While the majority of wedding receptions at The Grafton Inn are held in Phelps Barn, there is also the option to use our tented reception site on the property.

Wedding Receptions in the Phelps Barn

Dancing, music and other wedding festivities are held in the Phelps Barn, our premier reception spot. The Phelps Barn was a carriage house for The Grafton Inn in the 1800s. Today, it features two bars, a dance floor, ample seating areas, a loft and an outdoor courtyard patio – all lined with bistro string lights.

Tented Wedding Receptions in Grafton Village

For weddings over 130 guests, we have a property located at the Windham Foundation where you can rent a beautiful white tent. As you and your guests dance the night away, breathe in the richness of Vermont’s outdoors while enjoying all the comforts of an indoor reception space. This reception site is about half mile from The Grafton Inn, making it easily accessible for guests.

Kind Words from Happy Couples

“The Inn is perfectly set up for a wedding. The bridal party stayed in White Gates and we had various family in other houses on the property. It really feels like the town of Grafton becomes your own movie set over the weekend. It was so special!”

Sarah W. | WeddingWire

“I cannot recommend Grafton Inn enough! We had a micro wedding at Grafton and would not have changed a single thing! Not only is it a beautiful location for a wedding, but the staff and accommodations exceeded all of our expectations.”

Ella S. | WeddingWire

“I’m so deadly serious when I say don’t go anywhere else. Grafton is truly the BEST place to get married!! It’s gorgeous, secluded, and the people behind it are perfect. I cannot thank Olivia and Angela enough for all they have done for our special day.”

Rebecca C. | WeddingWire

“Anyone who’s planning on getting married in Vermont needs to book Grafton Inn. Whether you’re planning a destination wedding in Vermont or you’re local, Grafton Inn checks all the boxes for the most picturesque, charming New England location.”

Shalane L. | WeddingWire

“Our guests commented on what a lovely wedding and location it was, and how delicious the food was. Also, we spent a few days at the Inn prior to the wedding and had such a fun time with family and friends hiking, playing disc golf, enjoying a bonfire and s’mores, and just relaxing at the Inn.”

Lori P. | WeddingWire

“The Grafton Inn was the most amazing place to have a winter wedding or probably any wedding. The inn had absolutely everything I wanted; from stunning landscape, buildings, and rooms to enough houses and rooms so everyone could stay in the same place (which makes everything more fun.)”

Cara F. | WeddingWire

“We had our Rehearsal Dinner the night before and all our guests feasted on the most delectable Thanksgiving style dinner that to this day people are still raving about! The food at the wedding was out of this world. We had some very foodie guests and they were delighted at how amazing the food was.”
