“My experience for having our wedding at The Highgate Manor was absolutely amazing! The owners and their staff are so kind and caring! They were so easy to work with and made it very easy for my husband and I to say yes to this venue! Any questions we had they were open to answer all of them! They made it so easy to see my vision of my wedding come true! I have lived near The Manor my whole life and seen it go through many owners throughout the years, and I’ve always wished that someone would turn this beautiful piece of history into something that our town would be proud of, and the owners did just that! They transformed the Manor into what it is now, and words can’t even explain all the hard work and dedication they have for this beautiful piece of history in a small town just to keep it alive, I applaud them! And I want to thank them for making my dream wedding come true!”

“The Barn at Smugglers’ Notch was truly a DREAM wedding venue! From the moment we first saw it, we knew it was the perfect place for our wedding. We celebrated our marriage (actually on our first anniversary) on 9/28/2024, and over the span of almost 2 years of planning, Jenn, Jamie and Steve were wonderful to work with. They accommodated us visiting several times after booking to see more details and ask questions. As we got closer to our wedding date, Jamie worked with us to develop our timeline full of so many details. They were so welcoming of us and our family, allowing my brother, a pastry chef & restaurant owner, to build the wedding cake on site the day of the wedding. Jenn was there with a smiling face and coffee ready for our early morning start. And Jamie set up everything so beautifully, including all of our decor that was very intricate (my favorite being the most amazing bookshelf escort wall I made, using The Barn’s shelf out on the patio!) Jamie did a wonderful job keeping everyone on time and in the right place. When the shuttle went to the wrong pickup location, Jamie got it all figured out and even though we started the ceremony late because of it, we were able to make up some time and stay on schedule for the rest of the evening. Overall, we are beyond happy with our day! The weather and the foliage were perfect, and every single detail came together so beautifully. We can’t say thank you enough to the amazing team at The Barn, and would highly recommend having your dream Vermont wedding here!”
