My husband and I got married at The Hermitage in August 2023. It was a perfect New England mix of weather. Rain all morning until noon, wind and unseasonably cold! We wouldn’t have changed a thing. The team at the Inn was fantastic. They turned on heat lamps and had all the pretty fire pits going. It made everything glow and felt so special. Gina, the Inn’s wedding planner, is just so lovely. She’s professional and organized and executed everything we asked and more. We picked this location because it’s beautiful, and had indoor and outdoor wedding space. We wanted to get married in Vermont, but we weren’t looking for rustic. This was a really good fit for us. Overall it’s pricey, and that was a factor that we weighed heavily. Our guests raved about the food and drink, and loved The Hermitage. And we’re still dreaming about the wedding cake, carrot cake to be exact from the Inn’s pastry chef, Maya.

My husband and I couldn't recommend The Hermitage Inn more. The service is unbeatable - not only was the onsite planner we worked with (Gina) caring, professional, quick to respond, and a great problem solver, but on the wedding day itself, every employee at the Inn truly cared about your day and making it as smooth and perfect as possible. In our eyes, their professionalism and kindness cannot be beaten, and our guests couldn't stop raving about the service. On top of that, the food was exceptional, and we can't begin to explain how beautiful yet also delicious our cake was.On top of having our wedding there, we also had our rehearsal dinner in the wine cellar and hired the Hermitage to do the florals for the night. The food was also delicious (this is a sign to pick the chocolate lava cake), the ambiance made for a more intimate dinner with those we loved, and the florals were stunning. Also, our wedding party stayed at the Inn for the entire weekend, and the rooms were immaculate. So, stop your search now and get married here!Photo Credit to Emily Wren Photography

The Hermitage Inn is run by a team of passionate professionals. (Jo Putnam, Event Coordinator, is the absolute best!) They delivered a first-class experience for our guests, and they were a pleasure to work with from day one, making our vision come to life. Trust that they will deliver a one-of-a-kind Vermont experience: intimate and cozy, elegant and classy, modern and up-scale all while also honoring the location of the mountains. This is a gem of a location, as are the people! The space, the design, the food...it doesn't get better than this!

I can't say enough wonderful things about the team at the Hermitage Inn! I was proposed to at the Inn, in early February. My fiance said the team was so easy to work with leading up to the day, and made sure to have everything in place, and a fire roaring when we got there. Everyone was so warm and accommodating and made us feel right at home. We had dinner on property both nights (we stayed at the Inn), and our friends and family were raving about the food and drinks! As an event professional myself (who notices all the small details, and knows all the strings they needed to pull behind the scenes), I can't recommend Hermitage Inn enough. Looking forward to returning next year, and the years to come, what a special place!
