Weddings
No wedding is quite as cozy and fun as a Vermont farm wedding, and no Vermont farm wedding is quite as magical and authentic as those at Scott Farm. Broad vistas of hillside orchards, a scenic pond nestled beside rustic barns, remarkable stone sculptures, and historic vacation homes are a few of the many pleasures you and your guests will enjoy when you host your special day in southern Vermont at our 571-acre working farm and heirloom apple orchard, which was also a primary filming location for the 1999 film The Cider House Rules.
Our beautiful historic property is the perfect Vermont location for your New England wedding. You'll be surrounded by a National Register listed historic farmstead in active cultivation since 1791. Decidedly picturesque and rural, yet close to bustling, artsy Brattleboro, we offer a truly unique venue for your important day.
We’re also the perfect venue to treat your guests to our growing line of delicious hard ciders, made right here at the farm from our very own heirloom apples.
Scott Farm is a Certified B Corp, and we’re driven by our values: history, connection to the land, and environmental stewardship. If these values are important to you too, you’ll feel right at home with us and help connect your guests to the importance of caring for our unique Vermont landscape too.
Because we only host 10 weddings each year, you'll know your very special day is special to us too and will receive the personal attention it deserves.
Venues
Whether you choose to celebrate in our lovely Apple Barn or the charming Dutton Farmhouse, a Scott Farm wedding isn't just an event, it's an authentic and unique experience.
The Apple Barn is our primary reception and event location. This charming space can accommodate 120 guests. It has 3 bathrooms, one of which is ADA accessible, and a full commercial kitchen.
For smaller weddings of 20 or fewer, you can reserve the Dutton Farmhouse and have an alfresco dinner reception under a tent or in the open ell attached to the farmhouse. The ceremony site offers vistas of the orchard and beyond. Dutton Farmhouse bookings include a two night stay for up to 8 guests.
Various outdoor open spaces at the farm are also available with your rental on request. Come visit, and we’ll work with you to find the perfect spot for all your events!
Costs
The Apple Barn cost of $4500 includes tables, chairs, dishware, glassware, and table settings. It does not include linens, centerpieces, or serving ware. We have a list of preferred vendors for food, alcohol, flowers, music, photographers, and additional rentals. We’ll ask for a $500 deposit to hold the date. The deposit is refundable after the event as long as no damage has occurred. The full payment of $4500 must be received 3 months before the date of your event.
Dutton Farmhouse is available for $2500. The amenities and access to our vendors list are similar to the Apple Barn event room. A two night stay for up to 8 guests is included. We also ask for a $500 deposit to hold the date.
Stay at the Farm
If you want a fabulous place to spend your “first night” and house your guests, we offer accommodations for up to 22 overnight guests at the surrounding historic properties of our parent organization, The Landmark Trust USA. Weddings receive special access to discounted overnight rates. Our restored historic homes with modern amenities include:
Rudyard Kipling’s 4 bedroom 1892 home, Naulakha, a National Historic Landmark, and his 2 bedroom 1895 Carriage House just down the driveway.
The Sugarhouse, a cozy 1 bedroom 1915 cottage within walking distance of the farm and a wonderful place to start a new life together.
The 4 bedroom 1849 Dutton Farmhouse is just around the corner and offers unbeatable views of the orchard in the morning sun.
