Our wedding at Flag Hill Winery & Distillery was nothing short of magical. From start to finish, the entire team was beyond incredible—organized, supportive, and genuinely kind.
Nicole was my go-to throughout the entire planning process. She was super responsive, kept me calm, and made every step feel simple and stress-free. She helped bring our vision to life with so much care and flexibility.
Jackie was the calm in the storm (literally, it almost rained!) and made sure every detail ran smoothly on the day. She even made beautiful last-minute wrist corsages for all four moms in my life! Her professionalism and warmth were unmatched.
Rachel handled all things decor and setup—and knocked it out of the park. She made everything look exactly how I imagined it. I actually teared up when I saw the ceremony space set up because it was so perfect. She was relaxed, friendly, and a favorite of the groomsmen, too!
The food was phenomenal, the vineyard was stunning, and most importantly—the team made us feel like family. If I could do it all over again, I’d choose Flag Hill every single time. Highly, highly recommend!

Flag Hill was the most perfect venue for our wedding in every aspect. From the setting, food, coordinators, staff - everything was more than we could have ever imagined. They are extremely easy to work with, receptive to any/all questions or requests you may have, and so organized it made the whole experience seem so smooth! Our day-of coordinators, Rachel and Jackie were outstanding. They were so attentive, made the whole day stress-free, and made sure everything ran exactly how we envisioned. We have heard nothing but glowing reviews from all of our guests noting just how amazing the day was! Everyone was so impressed with the venue itself, and how amazing all of the amenities were. Look no further than Flag Hill for your wedding venue. It is reasonably priced, and you will no doubt have an amazing day if you are in the hands of Nicole, Rachel, and Jackie!

I can't recommend this venue enough. Our wedding was absolutely perfect and felt so seamless. Jackie and Rachel were by my side throughout the entire day helping me with anything I needed. They even had Star Wars music playing for me when we arrived in the bridal suite the morning of. The venue itself is absolutely stunning and I am so glad we chose this for our wedding.

We got married at Flag Hill Winery on September 20, 2025, and it was truly the most incredible day! There are no words that capture how incredible the staff at Flag Hill is or how beautiful the venue is. From the moment we first visited the venue, we knew it was the perfect place for us — the beautiful vineyards, rustic charm, and peaceful setting created the perfect backdrop for our celebration.
A huge thank-you to Nicole, our wedding planner, and to Jackie and Rachel, our amazing day-of coordinators. They were absolutely phenomenal from start to finish. Nicole guided us through the entire planning process with such expertise, organization, and kindness. She made everything feel easy and stress-free, and her attention to detail ensured our day turned out exactly how we envisioned it. She answered every single one of my million questions and emails quickly and thoroughly! She never made me feel like any ask was too much and truly wanted our day to be perfect.
On the wedding day, Jackie and Rachel were incredible — calm, professional, and so kind. Oh my gosh, they were absolutely amazing. I had soooo many guests comment on how incredible they were - going to guests tables to check on food, kept things running smoothly and on time, made sure my husband and I always had what we needed! I’m a little bit of a control freak and had complete confidence in their set up of the tent - it was stunning. Better than I could’ve ever imagined! They handled every detail seamlessly, kept everything running smoothly, and made sure we could truly relax and enjoy every moment. We didn’t have to worry about a single thing because we knew we were in the best hands.
Our guests couldn’t stop raving about how beautiful the venue was, how smoothly everything flowed, and how warm and welcoming the staff were. We’re beyond grateful to the entire Flag Hill team for making our wedding day absolutely perfect — it was everything we dreamed of and more! People keep telling us it was the best wedding food they have ever had!
If you’re looking for a venue that combines stunning scenery, amazing service, and a team that genuinely cares about making your day special, Flag Hill Winery is the place. We would chose Flag Hill every single time, over and over again. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

I cant say enough good things about Flag Hill. From Nicole doing all the prep work and communication prior to the wedding. To the day of coordinators Jackie and Rachel. They were AMAZING!! You can tell they love their job and truly care. They were always smiling, positive and was always able to help with whatever the task was. They took my vision and executed it perfectly. I had so many complements on the venue we picked along with the food from the rehearsal dinner to the played meal for the wedding. Everyone was so impressed. Thank you Flag Hill for making our day so amazing!!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about our wedding experience at Flag Hill Distillery & Winery and the incredible team led by Nicole, Jackie, and Rachel. From our very first venue tour, we knew we were in the best hands possible. Nicole's genuine warmth and understanding of our vision made us feel completely comfortable, and her approach was refreshingly different than the pushy sales tactics we experienced elsewhere. She listened to us and walked us through every detail, offering thoughtful suggestions that aligned perfectly with our dream for our wedding weekend.
Having our closest friends stay at the beautiful RiverCrest Villas made our celebration all the more special. It was perfect having our entire wedding party rent out the villas for the weekend. Our welcome party on Friday night, complete with a food truck and a beautifully arranged setup of tables, chairs, bistro lighting, and cozy fire pits, created an inviting atmosphere for our guests to enjoy. The convenience of walking back and forth between the villa and the venue for the rehearsal and the wedding night was a huge plus! Nicole and her team were phenomenal at executing our vision. They ensured every detail was understood and managed seamlessly, from decorations to vendor coordination, timelines, and food and drink orders. Our friends and family couldn’t stop raving about their impeccable service! The attention to detail was unbelievable—every member of the team was constantly checking in on guests while simultaneously managing drink and appetizer orders. Rachel, our day-of coordinator, was an absolute superstar! From bringing my reception shoes to the table to ensuring everyone knew where they needed to be, she made everything stress-free. A special shoutout to Rachel for her incredible care in handling the bouquets; she made sure there were no water drips on my bridesmaids’ satin dresses. Her thoughtfulness went a long way in ensuring the day flowed smoothly and beautifully. Thanks to Nicole, Jackie, Rachel, and the entire venue staff at Flag Hill Distillery & Winery, our wedding was truly a magical experience that we were able to enjoy to the fullest. I am so grateful for everything they did to make our day a cherished memory. If you're looking for a stress-free wedding experience with a dedicated team that genuinely cares, look no further than Flag Hill Distillery & Winery!

Our wedding at Flag Hill was truly perfect! They made our dream wedding come to life and for that we will be forever grateful. Guests could not stop raving about how beautiful the venue was, what amazing food they had, and how wonderful the Flag Hill Team was.
From start to finish the Flag Hill Team was incredible. It was evident that their team is made up of kind and welcoming professionals. Nicole was there to help us with every small detail throughout the planning process even when on maternity leave! Jackie and Rachel were there day of to make our vision come to life. They made sure my husband and I had an stress-free day and kept checking in on us to see if we needed anything. Everything went together seamlessly and the space was more beautiful than I could have imagined.
If we could do our wedding day all over again, which we wish we could because we had so much fun, we would choose Flag Hill over and over again! They made us feel like family and even joining in on some of the photobooth fun :) It was truly the best day and we can't thank them enough!

We got married in June 2025 at Flag Hill Winery and Distillery, and the experience was nothing short of incredible. Nicole, our event director, was organized, responsive, and made the planning process feel effortless. Jackie and Rachel, our day-of coordinators, went above and beyond from helping with setup to ensuring everything was beautifully decorated and perfectly managed.
One unforgettable moment: we had planned to place flowers on our wedding cake but ran out of time. Without missing a beat, the Flag Hill team stepped in and created the most stunning cascade of flowers. It turned out even more beautiful than I had imagined, absolutely picture-perfect.
Throughout the day, the team kept everything on track with professionalism, warmth, and care. They were incredibly flexible, accommodating, easy to work with, and always ready to adapt and support us as needs came up. Their teamwork and calm, confident presence made the day run smoothly and completely stress-free.
We chose the dinner stations package, and our guests haven’t stopped raving about the food. Every station was delicious and filling, several guests told us it was the best wedding meal they’ve ever had!
The setting at Flag Hill is absolutely breathtaking, with sweeping vineyard views that created the perfect backdrop for our celebration. If you’re looking for a venue with outstanding food, exceptional service, and a truly memorable atmosphere, we can’t recommend Flag Hill enough. Huge thanks to Nicole, Jackie, and Rachel for making our wedding unforgettable.

We were recently married at flag hill in July 2025, and we can’t say enough good things about our experience! They host a venue/vendor showcase in the spring and fall which we highly recommend! We were able to see the tent all decorated, taste all of the food, and meet a lot of preferred vendors which was so helpful in making choices. Nicole, the event planner, helped us for nearly two years of planning. She was lovely to work with. Easy and responsive to communicate with, kind and professional, and she helped answer questions we didn’t even know we had! She was also present on our wedding day and was a source of calm for us. Jackie was our day of coordinator and she was amazing!! Super kind and warm and she kept everything on track for us, she was always checking in to make sure we were doing okay, but at perfect times so we never felt crowded. Rachel is another coordinator who made everything look truly beautiful. From rehearsal and decor drop off through the whole wedding day all of the staff and our coordinators were incredible and I highly recommend this venue. It was stunning and everything was very easy. I also recommend the rivercrest villas, right down the street, for couples and the wedding party- we had all 10 reserved for ours and they were so much fun and beautiful, you can even see the tent/venue from them! Anyway- thank you to Flag Hill, Nicole, Jackie, and Rachel for a perfect wedding!!

Flag Hill was the first—and only—wedding venue my husband and I toured, and it was everything we could have hoped for. From start to finish, the entire team went above and beyond to make our day truly unforgettable.
Nicole was incredibly helpful throughout the planning process—always responsive, organized, and proactive with reminders that made everything feel manageable. As the wedding day approached, the weather threw us quite a curveball (think pouring rain, fog, and a few pockets of sunshine), but our amazing day of coordinators, Jackie and Rachel, handled every twist with calm professionalism and care. They tracked the weather hour by hour to make sure we could still have the best possible photos and experience.
When we had to pivot and move our ceremony under the tent at the last minute, they transformed the space into something beautiful. I had a specific vision for a DIY disco garden theme, and somehow, they made it even better than the inspo photos I sent—every detail was thoughtfully executed.
The food was absolutely incredible. Our guests could not stop talking about the mac and cheese bar, the passed apps, and the entrees—everything was flavorful, beautifully presented, and perfectly timed. Jackie and Rachel even made sure my husband and I didn’t miss a single bite, which we so appreciated. We were lucky enough to have a dessert box packed up for us to enjoy the next day!
Flag Hill is such a special place, and the staff makes it even more amazing. If you’re considering it for your wedding, don’t hesitate—this team will take care of you from day one and make sure your day is everything you imagined and more.

I truly can't put into words how special Flag Hill Distillery and Winery is. They created my dream wedding and made it seem effortless. The food was wonderful. We chose the stations dinner and everyone was blown away by the various options! The vineyard and tent are absolutely stunning giving an elegant, yet cozy setting. Even with the rain we moved the ceremony inside the tent, but didn't have to compromise on vineyard views. The RiverCrest Villas on site were so perfect and allowed us to be close to our loved ones and keep the party going all weekend long. LASTLY- the best part of this venue is the people and personal touches. The staff at Flag Hill are exceptional-attentive, friendly, and very professional. They made us feel so special and EXCEEDED any expectations we may have had. Jackie, Rachel, and Nicole are such amazing people and we are so grateful for them! Somehow they took the burden of the day flawlessly, all while never leaving our side. From the planning process to the decisions day of I couldn't have asked for a better team to work with. I would choose Flag Hill over and over again!!

We had our ceremony on 11/8/24 and it was amazing. The coordinator was very helpful and knowledgeable prior to our wedding. The day of coordinators were always present and ready to help me. We dropped off all the decorations the day prior and they set it all up perfectly. Our first look photos were finished earlier than we thought they would be and the coordinators were ready to help our guests to a comfortable place while waiting for the ceremony to start.

Nicole, Jackie, and Ryan were instrumental in helping us plan a smooth, stress-free day, holding productive meetings and impressing us and our parents with their organization and attention to detail. The venue itself is stunning, with the vineyard and barrel room providing a beautiful backdrop for our photos. On the day, Jackie and Ryan handled every detail and even managed unexpected hiccups seamlessly, allowing us to fully enjoy our celebration. The food was fantastic, and the events Flag Hill hosted allowed us to meet many of our wonderful vendors. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue or team!

They decorated the space perfectly, kept everyone on a timeline to keep the day running smoothly. They all contributed to a very smooth wedding day.

We had a great wedding at Flag Hill. We got many compliments on the venue itself, the views, the food, the bartender, etc.
We worked with Nicole to plan most of our wedding, which was great. She is responsive, answers all of the questions very clearly, and is super helpful (especially when you're planning a wedding for the first time!) About halfway through, she went on maternity leave, and was still fairly responsive - which was unexpected!
Ryan & Jackie were day of superstars and also saved my bracelet, which broke off at some point during the wedding.
We had some minor issues. One table was set for the incorrect amount of people, but they fixed this quickly without us even knowing - the guest just mentioned it to us later on. We had some issues with communication with Rivercrest Villas (cabins they offer on site for wedding party and the family to stay at) such as a door code being sent to an incorrect email address, which left my mother in law without a cabin for about 45 minutes after the wedding. The food we received as bride and groom was lukewarm, but it was good. We thought we were going to have a toast as this was discussed in the midway meeting, but I realized later that it was not added to the event order (so at least we didn't pay for this!) - however, many of the documents noted sober guests and toasting preferences and it wasn't mentioned to me.
Pros: as a wedding couple of FH, you get multiple lifetime benefits from the distillery. They provide catering/bar & day of coordinators (also tons of little things, like a cake stand and knife set so we didn't need to purchase one). They have TONS of photo opportunities. Their preferred vendors are excellent - definitely look into them!! They have an entire online portal for all your contracts, documents, and the email thread so you never lose track of anything. They have so many options to make your wedding different and unique.

We had a wonderful wedding at Flag Hill on 7/20/2024 with about 165 guests. From the beginning, Nicole and her team were responsive, accommodating, and did everything in their power to make sure our vision was executed. All along, the team at Flag Hill was very transparent about cost, which made it easy to ensure we were staying within our budget. Nicole responded to countless emails and questions from us without hesitation. Planning a wedding can be very stressful, but the team at Flag Hill made us feel confident that things were going to work out.
On the day of the wedding, we really enjoyed working with Jackie. She was kind, professional, and organized all while maintaining a calming presence. We had a big bridal party with several young kids, and Jackie was able to manage everyone extremely well from the rehearsal through the end of the reception. Even with some staff changes, Jackie and the rest of the day-of team set up our decor and executed our vision perfectly, and accepted some last minute requests from the bride and groom. Overall, our day was perfect thanks to the team at Flag Hill (and thanks to the absolutely perfect mid-July weather) - our only wish is that we could do it again!

I highly recommend Flag Hill to any Bride-to-be looking for a wedding venue! Flag Hill is like the unicorn of all venues! They do it all! I was searching for a venue where the bridal party could stay and get ready at. Flag Hill not only offers that, but they make the entire planning process so smooth and seamless! They are so accommodating and truly ease the stress of planning a wedding. We received so many compliments from our guests on how organized our wedding day was. Along with many compliments on how great the food was! Which was another great feature took the stress of finding a food vendor off the to-do list!

The day of team put everything together SO perfectly.

From the moment we stepped onto the Flag Hill grounds less than two years ago, we knew it was the right spot for such a special day. We began our planning process with Christa; however, Nicole transitioned into the position seamlessly shortly after. Working with the whole Flag Hill team was an absolute pleasure. The communication was constant, and we wanted a lot of different “off the menu” items. The chef was so flexible with adding passed apps such as arancini, buffalo chicken wontons, and a Greek flatbread. Nicole was incredible with helping us coordinate a spritz station and the bar manager assisted us with signature cocktails. Our guests did not stop talking about how beautiful the grounds were. We are so happy we had our wedding at Flag Hill and can’t wait to continue other celebrations at such a meaningful spot.

Our wedding at Flaghill was absolutely perfect! Flaghill was truly the best wedding reception venue we ever could’ve asked for - from the reception decorations/set-up, to the food, to the bar/signature drinks, and more - it was perfect! Back in October of 2022, our first time touring the venue, we were so happy with the welcoming, positive, and fun atmosphere. All the Flaghill team members were so kind, supportive, and guided us in our wedding day celebration! Our wedding planner Nicole communicated regularly and was always patient, supportive, informative, and kind! Our day of coordinator Ryan was also amazing in ensuring our wedding day was everything we could’ve asked for! We would highly recommend Flaghill for any celebration, especially couples’ wedding day!

Flaghill was truly the best wedding venue we could’ve asked for! The first time we toured Flaghill back in October of 2022, we were happy with the welcoming, positive, but relaxed atmosphere this venue made us feel. These qualities are largely related to the entire wedding team at Flaghill! Nicole our wedding planner communicated regularly, promptly, and with kindness and patience in answering any of our questions/needs. Then, a week prior to our wedding we spoke with Ryan, our day of coordinator, who was also so kind, efficient, and ensured our day was absolutely perfect. This incredible team extended to waitstaff, bartenders, other planners/coordinators, and more!
The food was also very good - we had the apple stuffed chicken and prime rib and it was so delicious!
Our friends and families also had nothing but amazing things to say about the venue itself in its decorations and so forth!
We are so grateful we chose Flaghill and we highly recommend to any couple considering!

Amazing Winery & Wedding Venue
An amazing venue, with unique catering options, on-site villas for the night of the wedding, amazing support and planning from the wedding coordinator and day of coordinator, and above all such a fun amazing venue with awesome recommended vendors.
Our wedding was the best day ever. From the moment we set foot on the property to tour the property to the last song - we had such a great experience. We loved the outdoor ceremony space with the rustic benches, and permanent arch overlooking the vineyard.
We used the bridal suite and common area at the villas to get ready for the wedding.
The outdoor tent overlooking the gorgeous vineyard was perfect for our Sunday September wedding. We had a BBQ BUFFET which our guests loved, with late night snacks (sliders & fries) and signature drinks.
We had the package with fire pit, for hole and extra touches. While I didnt think they would get use - our guests who did not dance the night away loved the fire and playing a few games.
One of the best parts about this venue is the effort and coordination they put into planning. We dropped all our items off and they handled all the decoration ( within reason) the day of the wedding, and getting everything back together to pick up the next morning. All the planning and small touches inbetween helped us think of everything and not miss a beat.
We used all recommended vendors who often work with Flag Hill which made everything easy.
We wanted a fun wedding, outdoors that was a fair price and this place did not disappoint. It was everything we dreamed it could be!

Flag Hill was our perfect venue. They really brought our vision to life. When we first started looking for places, we weren't really sure what we wanted, but as soon as we toured Flag Hill, we knew right away that's where we wanted our wedding to be. Nicole took over as coordinator and she was great! Very receptive to any question I had or anything I needed to change. The day before the wedding when we dropped off our decorations, I was nervous since I wouldn't be a part of the decorating day of wedding. But they really decorated the venue exactly how I pictured it. The day was perfect. It's been about a month since we got married and people are still talking about how good the food was! An added bonus is that this venue has 10 villas right next to it that we were able to stay in. This made the wedding weekend so easy because we were able to have our rehearsal dinner there and really didn't have to leave the space at all that weekend. My bridesmaids and I were even able to get ready there. The winery is gorgeous and really made for some beautiful pictures. Thank you to Nicole and Candace for making our day go smoothly!

We got married on 10/14 at Flag Hill and loved everything about it! We had both our ceremony and reception here, and it was absolutely gorgeous. The staff was helpful, the bar made incredible drinks, and we can't say enough about the food!
Flag Hill was the only venue we toured. The day we visited was freezing cold with torrential downpours, but while we were being shown around, we couldn't help but find it beautiful despite the weather. We didn't even need to look anywhere else -- we knew Flag Hill was it! We started our event planning with Christa, who left about halfway through. The transition to working with Nicole was seamless -- she was helpful, quick to reply, and went above and beyond. Our day-of coordinator was Candace, and she was incredible. She brought us food and drinks so we didn't have to worry about it ourselves, and made sure the day went by smoothly. We got so many compliments from guests about the scenery, the food, the drinks, and the event space. Flag Hill gave us a perfect day, and we are so thankful!

We cannot say enough good things about Flag Hill and all the staff that helped us make our wedding everything we wanted and more. Leading up to our wedding, we had so many questions for Nicole that she happily answered without hesitation. The venue was beautiful in person, but looked even more beautiful in our pictures. Our guests are still commenting on how perfect the venue was. There was plenty of space for all of our guests (215) to mingle and make there way to the bar/bathrooms/dance floor and lawn without feeling squished or over crowded. All of the staff were awesome and incredibly helpful/flexible helping us make the day exactly what we wanted! We wish we could do the day all over again and will definitely be back to Flag Hill to visit!

We had such a great experience at Flag Hill! We knew from the minute we toured the venue it was perfect for us. Once we picked our date, working with Flag Hill was a dream. They have a wonderful coordinator named Nicole. Who quickly responded to our emails and helped sort out problems (no matter how small). We were able to have a meeting to discuss everything about the wedding about midway through. Leading up to the wedding they were so supportive and clear. They made everything SO simple and easy. On the day of the wedding we had a 'day of' coordinator named Candace who was such a joy. She did all the behind the scenes work and made the day completely stress free. Even when a huge storm blew through at the exact time we were supposed to walk down the aisle. They worked to keep everyone dry as well as worked with all the vendors to wait out the storm so we could walk down the aisle outside. Everything went so smoothly!
Something I really loved was the fact that they decorate the venue with the decor you bring. As someone who has a problem giving over the power, I was nervous about not decorating the venue myself but Flag Hill BLEW me away. They created the most beautiful set up with all the decor I brought. They made everything more beautiful than I could've imagined. Not to mention all the space for taking beautiful photographs in the vineyard and distillery. The options are endless. All of our guests are still talking about how beautiful the venue was and how much they enjoyed the food.
Not only the beautiful venue, the food was outstanding. The appetizers were lovely as well as the mac & cheese bar. For the main course we did the carving stations/buffet and everything was cooked perfectly. The food tasted fresh. For the late night bite we did the slider bar with french fries, which were a huge hit. We were so thankful for Candace because she brought us food at the honeymoon table so we got a taste of everything!
Lastly, the bar tenders were awesome! They were so fun and made amazing drinks.
I have already recommend Flag Hill to newly engaged couples. I encourage anyone interested in Flag Hill to take a tour and fall in love just like we did, you wont be disappointed!

We got married here in July! This venue is an absolute beautiful ☀️
We love that Flag Hill is an all-inclusive venue. Food, drink, tables/chairs, ceremony space and lodging were all options here. The food was incredible and our guest loved the BBQ theme! The drinks were made with Flag Hill liquor and they even brought in chambord for my signature drink! Not to mention, no one had to drive off site before or after the wedding because we stayed in the villas at RiverCrest!
Thank you Flag Hill Winery for a great wedding venue!!

Flag Hill really knows how to run a wedding! My now husband and I decided in March 2022 to get married in September 2022 - and Flag Hill just so happened to have an opening on a Saturday in September.
With such a short planning timeline, I was looking for a venue that would take care of as much as possible to ease the burden, so I was delighted that Flag Hill handled food, alcohol, linens, and setting up/breaking down decorations.
From the moment we first reached out, working with the Flag Hill team was such a breeze. Christa was our coordinator and she was super friendly and responsive the entire 6 months. She remembered little details and made us feel like the only couple she was dealing with, even though Flag Hill was busy every weekend!
I felt like I never had to lift a finger, and I was never concerned about any issues. We ran through visions for decor the day before and Christa and the team set up everything beautifully. The weather was perfect for the wedding day, though I loved that Flag Hill had good backup options for rain.
We’ve gotten so many complements from guests on how beautiful the ceremony space and vineyards were, and how fun the wedding was (we did the package with lawn games and fire boulder and hired a live band as well!). Everyone also mentioned how much they enjoyed the food; we did the backyard BBQ package and the brisket and mac and cheese were highlights.
We booked the Villas next door for 2 nights and had an absolute blast staying there. Not only is it incredibly convenient to be right next to the venue, but hanging around the fire pits at night with close friends and family made everything extra special. We also hosted our own casual breakfast buffet in the lobby area which was a big hit. I would highly recommend booking the Villas if you can!
Flag Hill is a great venue and we highly recommend it. We will be back in the future for tastings (their rose and sparkling cayuga are delicious)!

My husband and I were married in July of 2022 and have not stopped raving about our amazing experience and day of celebration at Flag Hill! From the very beginning Christa and her team were with us every step of the way. The reminder emails, the timeline of what we should be booking/buying , the preferred vendors list, the just hello emails are just a handful of things that we got from the team. When you’re a couple getting married, sometimes you felt unsure if you were doing enough at times. Christa was always there to check in with what we had, who we booked and what we needed from her. Every email was answered within 48 hours and we always felt listened to. When it came to our vision Christa was always there to listen and give her honest feedback.
Now to the day of. Upon arriving to Flag Hill everything LITERALLY went perfectly. The timing of the ceremony. The communication between the Flag Hill team and outside vendors. The precision to detail with all of our decorations and visions. My husband and I always had food and drinks near us when we didn’t even know we needed it. The team was there to tell us what to expect next and never stepped on our toes or made us feel suffocated on our big day. We left Flag Hill with the biggest smiles and could not have asked for a better day or team to handle our big day. If you’re thinking of Flag Hill absolutely book them!!

Christa is a magical wedding coordinating wizard and though the food is delicious and the venue is absolutely beautiful, I do not think our day or our experience at Flag Hill would have been as easy or enjoyable without her. She really makes the day special. She keeps the energy of the process cool, calm, and collected but knows how to h u s t l e. She's very flexible, prompt, and offers accommodating solutions and compromises. She picks up on details that you didn't even know were important. She snuck behind me during dinner to pin up my falling out hair-do. She whipped out a sewing kit and stitched my mothers ripped dress during the reception. She never once made me feel rushed or pressured in my decision making, just supported and at-ease. All through the planning process I felt like I had a friend who was helping me plan a wedding and that was so important and special to me.
The food was delicious and the staff always made sure my husband and I had food on our plates--a portion from every course--and drinks in our hand. We had great feedback from our guests about the meal, appetizers, and desserts. If I had one thing to "complain" about it would be that we were under the impression the staff would make us a couple to-go boxes with some leftovers but we didn't get that. I would've like to enjoy some of that food at home with more time to focus on it.
We experienced rain/sun/rain/sun on our wedding day and the staff was quick to make adaptations for weather.
All in all, if I had to redo the process, I would pick Flag Hill again. I wouldn't change a thing!

Flag Hill as a venue sells itself with a stunning vineyard backdrop for your ceremony and reception. But what really makes Flag Hill stand out is their Wedding/Events team and the food!
The team: Christa is the best hype woman anyone could ever ask for. If you have an idea, Christa is there cheering you on and helping you turn that idea into something even better than what you could have imagined. If you're feeling overwhelmed by family or friends opinions on what you should do, Christa is there to calm you down and remind you that you are planning the wedding of YOUR dreams. Christa is also the kind of person that you meet and after 5 minutes you feel like you've been friends your whole life. Christie and Candace, our day of coordinators, were equally as amazing. As soon as we arrived at Flag Hill for our rehearsal, they were there to help unload the cars filled with decor, go over every single detail to make sure the decor and the ceremony flow are exactly as we had envisioned. They also made sure that they took care of our wedding party - making sure that drink orders were taken and served as soon as the ceremony was over, apps are reserved specifically for the wedding party during cocktail hour and making sure we had everything we needed throughout the night. Because of this amazing team, we didn't need to worry about one thing on our wedding day.
The food: Flag Hill offers multiple menus, a few of which are non-traditional wedding menus. We decided to go with BRUNCH for dinner and we'd choose to do it again a million times over. We loved that this was something that we have never seen at a wedding before and who doesn't love brunch! The Flag Hill team even helped us with adjusting the menu to include some items off of another menu so we got to have everything that we loved!
From the first email sent to schedule a tour of the venue up until our wedding day the service we received was impeccable. We appreciated that they have prepared a list of their favorite vendors, vendors who have glowing reviews from past Flag Hill couples, which saved us so much time researching. If you're still reading this, I hope you've heard enough to book yourself a tour of this amazing venue, you will not regret it!

It is hard to truly capture how amazing our experience was with Christa and the Flag Hill team. Flag Hill was the first venue we toured, and after meeting Christa and walking the beautiful venue, we knew there was nowhere else we would want to have had our wedding. If you always dreamed of a vineyard wedding, look no further! The lush August vineyards were the perfect backdrop for our outdoor ceremony and the transition from ceremony to reception was seamless!
You will have a hard time finding a wedding coordinator better than Christa. From our first meeting, she put us at ease taking the edge off of those stressful moments (1st meeting, mid-way meeting, rehearsal, etc.) Communication was always prompt and clear, no matter how many questions we asked (big or small!). She worked tirelessly to have our vision come to fruition, and the organization and communication along the way allowed my husband and I to enjoy the beautiful day we spent over a year planning! Flag Hill’s food was delicious, and having removed the stress of setting up outside catering/tableware etc from our list was truly a game changer. Preferred Vendors come back to Flag Hill time and time again, and you can tell the relationship they have built over the years is strong.
Wine, Whiskey and the best Wedding Team in the Seacoast… you have to give Flag Hill a chance!

My Husband and I would not change ONE thing about our wedding day and it’s all because of Christa and the Flag Hill banquet team! Christa and the team’s attentiveness was top notch and their attention to detail throughout the day/night did not go unnoticed! From day one of planning, we truly enjoyed the entire process leading up to our big day!
It made us SO happy to see all of our guests having a blast and enjoying every aspect of of our wedding from the beautiful grounds, amazing food, drinks, dance floor, s’mores fire pit, cigar lounge, lawn games, etc! Everyone was truly impressed, so THANK YOU!!
The food/drinks were delicious and overall service was outstanding. Everyone raved about the signature cocktails, appetizers and late night bites!
I truly can’t say enough positive things about Flag Hill. I would recommend this venue to any couple looking for a unique, hidden gem in New Hampshire with an amazing staff to top it off!

We came across this venue and fell in love not only with the location and food, but also the people who work there. From our very first interaction through our wedding day we felt the easy going vibe and everyone knows exactly how to help everything run smoothly. Event manager Christa is AMAZING - she will answer all of your questions. This venue has day of coordinators included in the price and they are also AMAZING. They will make sure you are calm, have food, drinks, and everything you need. Truly the best venue (and we toured and saw many). Highly highly recommend to have a smooth day where you can focus on marrying your favorite person.

We cannot praise Christa & the Flag Hill team enough - Stop your venue search right now if you want guests to still be talking about how gorgeous and fun your wedding was weeks later. Aside from the obviously stunning hidden gem venue (a beautiful tent in a private vineyard) Christa and team are an absolute dream to work with. Vibes are immaculate - They are professional, reliable, responsive, and organized, yet handle everything with a manner of poise and hospitality which truly takes the stress out of wedding planning. They have a way of making you feel like you’re the only wedding they work on - from the planning process, down through the day-of. They knew exactly how to execute our vision - from the gorgeous decoration and satellite bar setup, to the day-of flow (including their time management and direction so everyone knew where they needed to be and when). One thing that sets them apart is they are experienced professionals in the wedding business - even when something went off-book on the Big Day (because it will! who doesn’t have the perpetually late cousins, or the crazy aunt who decides to go rogue and use the bathroom right as the wedding procession begins…) Christa and team had all-hands on deck addressing any unexpected side situations that were out of our control, so we didn’t need to worry about a thing. Flag Hill’s priority was allowing us to relax and be in the moment enjoying our special day.
Also worth noting our entire wedding party had unsolicited rave reviews about Christa & team – Christ was "The MVP". From the ease and direction during the rehearsal, to helping us with everything we needed on the wedding day - including ensuring the bridal suite was stocked with fresh champagne and that our entire party's drink orders and bites were waiting for us all immediately following the ceremony. Christa truly gave us the VIP treatment as a bridal party. Many folks in our party even said it was the most enjoyable wedding they’ve been in simply because Christa and team were so awesome.
We couldn't have asked for a smoother day from start to finish. We had the time of our lives as did all of our family and friends. So thrilled with our decision to work with Flag Hill!!

There are not enough words to describe how amazing our experience with Flag Hill was. We originally had booked another venue and after months of little to no communication, we decided to move on. THANK GOODNESS we did! Christa, Maddy, and Candace are one well-oiled machine of a team! I was scared to switch venues but the minute I met with them I knew it was a great decision. Prior to the wedding they had everything very organized on their online portal, answered all my questions, and made sure we had everything we needed.
The day before the wedding they walked us through everything, check-in with us to make sure they knew exactly how we wanted things set up, and made us feel extremely comfortable and confident our wedding would go off without a hitch.
Day of the wedding they were on top of everything! Things I didn't even think of, they took care of. Everything was set up perfectly. They made the day seamless, always knowing where to be and when. They helped us through every step of the way while also staying out of the way. I was warned multiple times that something always goes wrong at a wedding and to be prepared but that is not true when you're at flag hill. The team there is ready for everything and we did not run into a single problem all day, it was perfect!
I can not recommend Flag Hill enough and I am so happy to be able to return there for wine tastings and chef dinners and always remember what a special place it holds in my heart.
Stop looking for venues, this is the one!

I got married at Flag Hill in October of 2021. I looked at a few places in MA and RI first but didn't fall in love with a venue until I visited Flag Hill. Their view for the ceremony is breaktaking and the tent for the reception is so romantic, exactly what I was looking for. I watched the video of Flag Hill before going but you really can't tell how perfect it is until you see it in person. Christa is SO helpful and really helped take some stress out of the wedding planning process. She answered so many of my questions and was always so helpful. After my wedding I received so many compliments on Flag Hill and how fun and beautiful the venue was. The food is pretty good too as far as wedding food goes!!

Perfect! That is all that comes to mind when my husband and I reflect back on our wedding day. We were married at Flag Hill this past June and Christa & Sarah were an absolute blessing. We came to Flag Hill after our first venue shut down due to Covid-19. We were lost and stressed. Christa & Sarah made us feel immediately taken care of and supported. We were absolutely blown away by their attention to detail, their care for the couples they work with and how much we trusted them. We would not have changed a single thing about our wedding, and we cannot thank Christa, Sarah and everyone at Flag Hill enough! I felt so at ease there and knew our family and friends would feel the same. It was a picture-perfect day, on probably one of the hottest days this Summer and we had the absolute time of our lives. Thank you!! - Nathan & Hannah
