The Old Lantern Inn and Barn

The feedback that we received from our guests was comprehensive and absolutely tremendous! We feel like they knocked it out of the park on every tier including the inn. One of our favorite comments was that the venue is very classy yet warm and inviting. Lisa, the owner, was an absolute joy to work with and took a very active role throughout the three-day holiday weekend. Ashley, Mary Catherine, and Jocelyn were so much fun behind the bar that it was like they were guests…very, very professional guests! :) Julie Martin Olson was our wedding planner/sensei/spirit guide the months leading up to the wedding, and it was like she had superpowers during the events. Her intuition was uncanny; we would feverishly think of something that we needed just to turn around and find Julie holding it with a big smile on her face. Lisa and Julie’s strong relationships with local vendors allowed us to pluck the crown jewels of the area. We literally couldn’t have asked for anything more. Thank you everyone! Abby & Matt 7.2.23

The Old Lantern in such an amazing venue. We knew it was the one when we first toured the place with Julie. It’s beautiful on its own but it exceeded our expectations on the actual day. Lisa was also very helpful, and we appreciated all her advice and words of encouragement throughout our wedding day. Julie and the Gaujacs made our dream come to life. The barn was so spacious and had various areas inside and outside for guests to mingle and enjoy the views. We also stayed at the Inn with our bridal party which was a fantastic idea. It was so convenient to have stayed on location with our bridesmaids and groomsmen and made for an incredibly fun couple of nights. We also found a lot of our vendors through the Old Lantern which made wedding planning go a lot easier. Our guests spoke very highly of the venue as well. We had the best time on our special day and it was all thanks to the Old Lantern and our wonderful vendors!!

The Old Lantern was everything we could have asked for! Cozy fall atmosphere and beautiful decorations. Julie the planner and Lisa the day-of person were both very kind and professional. They made things easy and took care of hiccups accordingly. We had the ceremony outside under the arbor and the reception inside the barn. The bar area was great for cocktail hour, relaxed but rustic, and they had a pool table which was great for photos. They have a bridal room as well for getting ready, which was spacious and a good place to put all of our extra stuff. It was a great price as well compared to similar venues. I can't recommend it enough really!

Wow-I don't even know where to begin with this review because there are SO many amazing things to highlight about The Old Lantern. The team they have was truly incredible to work with every step of the way. From actually driving up to Vermont (we're Boston locals) to get a private tour, to attending a private dinner to taste the food & drink offerings, to having a million back and forth emails and Zoom calls to help with the planning, and finally leading up to the week and day of-everyone was spectacular and truly so helpful in this normally hectic process. Julie was extremely helpful and actually served more so as an advisor to me and my husband as we had to navigate through making certain decisions and choices and really was exactly the kind of support I needed! Lisa and Roland were also amazing the day of with all of the timing, logistical elements, and of course with serving the most delicious food and drinks. I even got a lot of compliments from our wedding party and guests on the waitstaff and event staff and how friendly and helpful they were! Honestly they went above and beyond everything I had expected we would be getting for the cost of the venue and I am very grateful to have had a perfect wedding because of them!

Where to begin!! Julie and Lisa were amazing!! Julie made sure I had all my questions answered throughout the wedding planning! Lisa was amazing on the day of the wedding, she nailed every detail and we weren’t the only ones who noticed. We got so many compliments from our guests on how amazingly smooth the day went! I knew no matter what I picked for food someone would complain, but with Chef Roland in the kitchen, I didn’t have to worry one second—everyone said how lovely their dinner was! To top it off we got to spend the whole weekend at their Inn and it was such a fun time to get to mingle with all of our close friends and family and take in the whole weekend! Couldn’t have asked for a better team! Mallory & Hunter Lane 10/15/22

Our experience with the Old Lantern was great from start to finish. The team always tried to make sure we got exactly what we wanted and sometimes knew what we wanted even when we didn't. They made us feel important and unique while also showing us they have done this thousands of times and knew every trick of the trade. This weekend was made so much better because of Julie and Lisa's attention to detail and organization and Roland's amazing food. We felt so at home and so special at the same time and would recommend the Old Lantern to anyone looking for a luxury Vermont experience.

The team at the Old Lantern Inn and Barn was exceptional. They went above and beyond to make sure we were prepared for our big day. Julie and Lisa were an absolute pleasure to work with and made me feel like a guest at my wedding which is huge because I am very detail oriented. Not only was their team amazing but the food was fantastic. One of my friends took about 6 cupcakes home with her because they were the best she had ever had and another friend remarked it was the best chicken he had ever tasted and went back for thirds. The space was perfect and their team helped me with seating charts, room layouts, details/decor, and logistics on any rentals, etc. If you are considering them as a vendor, just say yes. We could not have asked for anything more from their team and they made our black tie barn wedding something from my dreams.

Julie and Lisa, along with all of the staff at The Old Lantern, went above and beyond to make our day spectacular. The team is very professional and organized. The entire planning process and day was made simple, easy, and completely stress free. I loved how timely Julie and Lisa were in getting back to me when I emailed or called with a question. They did an incredible job with centerpieces to match our colors and the decorations that they provide are beautiful. What really stood out to us was the care put into making our day special and running smoothly. Lisa was our day of coordinator and made sure that we stayed on time throughout the evening, but also had time to sit and eat our meal and enjoy ourselves. Their flexibility for the day of coordination was very helpful when we were determining if the rain would hold off so we could have an outside ceremony, it did! All of the day of details were handled to a t , the food was excellent, and the venue was absolutely gorgeous. I cannot say enough about The Old Lantern and the team there. It was the best day and perfect venue.

Julie and Lisa went above and beyond to make our special day more than memorable! From the rehearsal dinner, to the ceremony, to the reception, everything was spectacular and handled with care and attentiveness. We waited so long for this weekend due to COVID, but it was worth the wait. It was seriously one of the happiest days of our lives and I will never forget it. A huge thank you to the Old Lantern Inn and their staff. Would highly recommend them!

WOW! The team at old lantern helped me throw a dream wedding! It was very easy to meet with them along the way of planning and they exceeded my expectations the day of! They were able to bring my visions to life! Lisa and Julie were so attentive to us while also hosting all of our guests. I couldn’t imagine my day having been anywhere else! So many thanks to the entire old lantern team!

From beginning to end, the entire team at The Old Lantern made every step of the planning process so simple! Julie and Lisa were so helpful and answered all of our questions about what our wedding package included. Covid forced us to postpone our wedding a full year, but they kept us locked in at our original booking price. On the wedding day, we didn't have to stress over a single detail. Lisa and her team kept us on schedule and managed all of the behind the scenes details flawlessly. My wife and I are so thankful that we were able to have our dream wedding, and we owe it all to the team at The Old Lantern. Plus, Roland's cooking is incredible. Our guests still talk about how delicious the food was! If you're looking for Vermont hospitality, this is the perfect spot to get married!

My husband and I toured the Old Lantern Inn and Barn and immediately knew we would have a magical wedding there! Lisa and her crew have been consummate professionals through what has been a difficult time for many couples. Julie was supportive through several date changes and was transparent about venue protocols during the pandemic. All emails we sent were promptly answered and she made herself available if we needed to check in. We chose to rent the onsite Inn for ourselves and close family and friends who were traveling. The space is gorgeous, clean, and set up well for guests. We really enjoyed the back patio area outside. The fire pit was perfect for roasting marshmallows and the ample seating was terrific for our lowkey rehearsal dinner. The staff made the Barn so beautiful that we barely needed to add any of our own details. Our day was stress-free because they took care of the particulars so we could enjoy ourselves, and everyone was so kind to all our guests. We were fortunate to be able to work with such fantastic and experienced people who made our wedding day better than we ever imagined it could be!

Best venue ever!! Not only did Julie and Lisa help with all of the day of details, but Lisa's day of coordination made the day perfect!! The Old Lantern has the best food, staff, and scenery! We couldn't have asked for a better place to host our wedding!!

The Old Lantern was the perfect place to stay and get married. Julie, Lisa, & Roland made sure everything from our rehearsal to our wedding day went perfect and smoothly. The way they used our decorations and their own inside the venue was perfection and the food was outstanding! Julie helped make planning this as easy as pie! We couldn’t believe it. If you want a beautiful place to get married in, people who truly care about you and your event, and the best food at a wedding you’ve ever had we 100% percent recommended The Old Lantern Inn and Barn! Do yourself a favor and rent the Inn. It is so worth it!! I am so grateful we found The Old Lantern Inn and Barn for our special day we could not have found a better more beautiful place than this ! Thank you all so much for everything you did! We will remember this and you all forever.

Old Lantern made our day so special. Julie & Lisa were fabulous to work with and helped make our day as stress-free as possible. They decorated the barn so beautifully. All our guests commented on how beautiful everything was. Wonderful staff all the way around. The food from Chef Roland was outstanding!

My daughter and her husband were married at The Old Lantern Barn on 6/4/22. We couldn't have been happier with the entire experience. From planning; to the main event; to having the wedding party stay at the Inn for the weekend (highly recommend this) the wedding exceeded any expectations we had. Since my daughter and her husband live in Kansas, the planning was done both in person and remotely. Julie was super organized and helpful. Lisa took over for the event and made the magic happen so we could have an effortless fun day. A shout out to Mark at Top Hat DJ, he was fantastic. We actually had guests write us thank-you cards for inviting them to such a fabulous venue.

The Old Lantern is absolutely a fantastic venue! I highly recommend it! Lisa and Julie are very professional, organized and seasoned wedding planners! They know exactly how to engage with the bride and groom and keep the flow of the reception at the proper pace. The food is delicious and the staff very responsive and accommodating. We hired Top Hat for our DJ. They are awesome! We also got a photo booth through them which was a big hit. We hired Palmers creamy truck to come out to the venue for a few hours. Everyone LOVED having a creamy!!! Once again, I encourage anyone planning a wedding to check out the Old Lantern. Rain or shine, you will have the perfect wedding!!

From day one Julie was wonderful in helping us every step of the way. We couldn't tour the venue initially in person because of covid, so Julie did a zoom call tour of the venue. Any questions or concerns we had were answered immediately. On the day of our wedding Lisa and the team were absolutely fantastic. I have nothing but positive things to say about The Old Lantern. I highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for somewhere to host their wedding!

The Old Lantern is a fantastic place to get married! The venue itself is stunning for either an indoor or outdoor ceremony and perfect for a quintessential Vermont wedding. Lisa, Roland, Julie and the rest of the staff were incredible to work with. Julie was always willing to meet with us and answer our many questions which made the planning process go smoothly. On the day of, Lisa was on site and directed everything so that we didn't have to worry about a thing. The food was incredible, and they were able to work with us to create the menu we wanted. They even offered a dinner and wine tasting so we could sample their food and see the venue in action before the big day. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding day. If you are looking for a beautiful, cost effective venue that will take the stress out of planning a wedding, this is it.

The Old Lantern Inn and their staff were amazing to work with for our entire wedding experience. When we were forced to postpone due to COVID, they were very accommodating and helpful with rescheduling. Their experience, organization, and communication made planning our wedding from across the country seamless. The food and bar service were outstanding, and we received numerous compliments from our guests. Julie and Lisa were instrumental in the coordination process leading up to and on the day of the wedding. The barn and grounds were beautiful and captured the day perfectly. We highly recommend the Old Lantern to anyone planning to host a wedding or other event.

The Old Lantern went above and beyond our expectations throughout the entire wedding planning process! Julie and Lisa are an incredible team to work with - they really turned the day into more than we ever could have imagined! Julie was so fun to work with and helpful with everything leading up to the wedding with multiple zoom calls, meetings, and texts to make sure they had all the details for how we pictured the day. Lisa was the coordinator for the day of and was just as fun to work with -everything was organized and kept on time throughout the night without us ever having to even think about it, and she made sure we got some time away to eat our own wedding food before the night was over :) The venue was set up beautifully, all the guests continue to tell us how good the food and drinks were, and the entire staff was amazing the entire day. A big thank you to everyone at the Old Lantern - we highly recommend them!

My husband and I had booked the OL when we first got engaged in 2019, for the following October. Due to Covid restrictions, we decided to postpone to 2021. Lisa and Roland were very flexible and understanding. We live out of state and had complete trust in Julie and the staff to create the wedding of our (my) dreams. It was a beautiful night that we will never forget. The inn was gorgeous as well with amazing service. Food was delicious and we could just not have asked for a better day. Lisa and Julie think of everything and prepared us for the entire day with the rehearsal as well as day of. They were always there for us. I highly recommend considering this venue! Also close to Charlotte beach for gorgeous photo opps!

I can’t say enough about how amazing it was to have our wedding at The Old Lantern! Every guest raved about the beautiful property, the amazing food (shoutout to Chef Roland) and the staff! We were SO lucky to work with Julie and Lisa — they were incredible. From the very beginning of the process to the end of the wedding day, we felt confident and calm that everything would work out. Julie was always there to answer any questions along the way, even if I kept going back and forth on things (lol). She always remained supportive and was on top of everything. Lisa was there every step of the way on wedding day to make sure the day went smooth. She would pull me aside and have me take a moment to take it all in with my fiancé before we walked down the aisle. She had everything ready before I could even ask her. Any little thing that I was worried I forgot, she already took care of. Thank you again Old Lantern, we will absolutely never forget this day!!

I truly cannot say enough amazing things about this venue! The rustic beauty of the barn, the ceremony space and the gorgeous spots for photo opportunities - it was all perfect. Working with Julie and Lisa was an incredible experience. They had every single detail exactly how we wanted it and always knew the answers to all of our questions before we could even ask them. The prep work was made so easy because of the help and professional input they gave us. This venue takes care of the centerpieces and works with your florist to make sure everything ties together. They have a great list of vendors that they work with regularly, which was very helpful in our selection process. The day of the wedding also went flawlessly, from calming down our nerves right up until the ceremony and making sure we had plenty of food and drinks all night. All of our guests told us it was the best wedding they'd been to and that the appetizers and drinks as well as dinner was all incredible. I couldn't have imagined a more special day for us and it was all thanks to the great team the venue had working for us all day! Thank you!!

We fell in love with the beautiful barn at a friends wedding a few years ago. We were so excited to have our wedding here! But it exceeded all of our expectations!! We worked alongside Julie throughout our whole engagement! She answered all of my many questions, was always available to run ideas past her and was so organized and easy to work with. The day of our wedding I completely trusted her to set everything up for our wedding. She went above and beyond to make it perfect! Everything looked picture picture! Our day of coordinator Lisa made everything run so smoothly and it was a perfect stress free day! We also rented out the inn on the property for the wedding weekend! The inn was beautiful! It was so much fun to have our whole wedding party stay with us for the whole weekend! Getting ready in the inn the morning of the wedding was perfect too! The food was absolutely delicious!!! We had so many people tell us how great everything was! They had so many options to choose from too! Overall, we had an amazing experience! We absolutely loved everyone we worked with and it was our dream wedding! We would highly recommend!

My husband and I just got married at the Old Lantern this last weekend. We where supposed to get married last September, but due to Covid we rescheduled. Julie and Lisa made this process as easy as possible. Anytime we had a question they were there to answer them. Lisa was there the day of to help make everything run smoothly. The food was absolutely wonderful, Chef Roland did an amazing job. Julie did an amazing job decorating everything. We recommend getting the inn for two nights and having your wedding party stay there with you. The Inn was wonderful to have while we got ready and for a place to go after the wedding and all the dancing. The wedding was better than we could have imagined thanks to Julie and Lisa.

I can't even begin to describe how perfect our wedding day was at the Old Lantern. My husband and I were looking forward to a May 2nd, 2020 wedding when COVID hit and that dreaded call came that it had to be canceled due to the unknow. With the help of Lisa and Julie two weeks before our next wedding date in July we decided to have a small intimate 32 person wedding on July 11th. With our whole dream we believed to be out the window here came Lisa and Julie to the rescue with a plan to make our dreams still come true. A year later we were able to invite all our guests and finish the wedding of our dreams. From the decorations to every last detail were beyond perfect, the drinks were great and the food was beyond delicious from chef Roland. the Old Lantern is everything a girl could have every dreamed of having her wedding day look like, even with all the stress COVID brought. I don't think we would have ever held onto our dreams if it wasn't for Julie and Lisa. oh and the venue is the perfect rustic touch for your special Vermont wedding.

We just had our wedding reception at the Old Lantern and it was everything we hoped for!! Lisa and Julie went above and beyond to make sure we were happy and all our needs were met. We highly recommend renting out the inn for your event. Roland does an amazing job cooking the food. Thank you soooooo much for making our wedding extra special!

What an amazing wedding event! The Old Lantern Inn and Barn went over the top to ensure that our guest were safe and comfortable. Lisa, you were absolutely great! Roland, the food was spot on! Julie, not only did you have our entire event planned perfectly, You saved the day for us!!!!! ... The entire staff was so great and so helpful, you went way above and beyond our expectations. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

It's been a crazy year - COVID-19, and our original venue was no longer available to us - 55 days before the wedding. After a quick search by my daughter and her then fiance, we quickly learned that there were few venues in Vermont that could still accept more than 55 people. They already had RSVP's for 94. Old Lantern can seat 150, so during VT's COVID restrictions, they could still handle 75. More than almost any other option we had. Finally, we found the Old Lantern Inn and Barn, and the four of us (daughter/fiance/wife/myself) all met with Julie. We knew immediately that it was the place for us. So many things were taken off the list with this venue - wedding cake (done!), decorations (done!), event planner (done!), bar/bartender on site, COVID precautions (done!), etc. (done, done, done!) The staff at the Old Lantern was wonderful. They did a great job of making us feel warm and wanted, even suggesting different options for things like how to do drinks for the toast, etc. On the wedding day, they were invaluable. Lisa kept things for the ceremony rolling in a caring way, keeping the timing of things moving along, and making sure we were all in our places when needed. It was such a relief to have her there, and it would not fall on me to have to 'herd' everyone through the whole thing. Very professional and extremely caring in the way she handled things. As the wedding progressed, there were just more and more things that added to the feelings that the newlyweds and my wife and I were VIP's, and the value for what we paid kept going through the roof! They also handle catering in-house, and the food was exceptional. Appetizers were served at the table, and entrees via buffet line in the back. I believe that table serving of entrees is also an option. The wedding cake they made was beautiful, and tasty, too! Would I recommend them? Oh, Yes! I'll be touting the benefits and recommending the use of Old Lantern for years to come. These folks are wonderful, and truly made my daughter's wedding a fairy tale! Please use them! You won't regret it!

We were supposed to get married at the Old Lantern this year in September. Like many other weddings this year, we made the decision to postpone. The Old Lantern team has been exceeding our expectations with helping to navigate through this strange time. They have been so helpful with making sure not only that we were taken care of at the Old Lantern itself, but with all of our vendors that we will be working with on our rescheduled day. Julie has been amazing with talking us through everything, giving us updates and never making us feel pressured in any way to stick with our original date - her only concern was truly our happiness and making sure we were comfortable. A big thank you to the whole team for being amazing to work with! We can't WAIT for next year!

Old Lantern Inn & Barn was exactly what we were looking for in a wedding venue! This beautiful rustic barn and amazing staff made our day perfect! Having a venue that handles so many of the logistics made the wedding planning process stress free. Julie and Lisa helped immensely to bring our vision to life. They did an incredible job with the centerpieces to match the wedding colors and we are grateful for Julie letting us borrow decorations, table numbers, and signs. Both Julie and Lisa are excellent at alleviating stress and keeping everyone calm and organized both during the planning process and throughout the wedding -- which was needed for the bride, groom, and the groom’s mother. :) Their flexibility for day-of coordination was very helpful when we were determining if we could have an outside wedding in early November. The food we selected was exceptionally prepared by Roland and we received multiple compliments. We could not be happier with our decision to have our wedding at the Old Lantern Inn & Barn.

We had such an amazing wedding at The Old Latern on 10/19/19. Julie was great through the whole process and was there to answer any questions we had along the way. The decor came out wonderful thanks to her as well. Lisa was wonderful the day of, wrangling in a very boisterous wedding party of 20 and keeping everyone where they needed to be and on time! All our guests were in love with the venue itself and the food blew everyone away! We can't thank The Old Latern enough for such a great wedding experience!! If you are looking for a relaxed but elegant venue with amazing people/staff and delicious food, look no further!

Incredible service from our first inquiry to the last dance! Julie, Lisa, and Roland felt like family by the end of our top-notch experience:) Prompt, professional, thorough, and kind, they make this the perfect venue for a cozy, rustic VT wedding. Oh yeah - and our guests are STILL talking about how amazing the food was;)

I can not say enough about how wonderful our experience was with the Old Lantern. Julie and Lisa made the whole process so easy. Planning a destination wedding can feel daunting but they both made me feel like I was doing great and helped me remember the little details that slipped my mind. We rented the whole Inn for the wedding weekend which was the BEST decision ever. Being about to walk back and forth between the Barn and the Inn made the whole weekend so easy and convenient. The Old Lantern really takes care of so many of your needs, including the food, drinks, centerpieces, cake and even some of the decorations. We hardly had to do anything at all besides show up and everyone can't stop talking about how beautiful it all was. The food was also incredible! We have received so many compliments on the food and the cake. I would recommend the Old Lantern to anyone who wants a gorgeous Vermont venue with amazing coordinators who really know what they're doing.

This venue has absolutely everything you could wish for: a big dance floor, lots of options for entertainment like foos ball and pool, good connections to the best vendors in the state, delicious food, beautiful setting, and professional and communicative staff! We were extremely pleased with all the services provided and would definitely recommend The Old Lantern!

We had an amazing wedding in the barn and stay at the Inn. Lisa and Roland provide a warm, welcoming and comfortable setting in which you are able to enjoy your guests and special moments of this amazing day. The food is unbelievable! They were very accommodating to our daughter and now son in law who had a vision of how things would look and be. Thank you💖❤️

The Old Lantern was the perfect spot for our wedding. We were planning from out-of-town and so having a venue where they handle so much of the organization and are there to help hold your hand through the process was key. We had both our Ceremony and Reception there and couldn't be happier. Beautiful location, great food, excellent space for dancing, and a very reasonable price given everything they include.

The Old Lantern is one amazing wedding venue! When my now husband and I began our quest for a place to celebrate our wedding, we were instantly drawn to The Old Lantern for the following reasons: affordability compared to similar venues, amount of services provided, location, and beauty inside and out. We could not be happier with our choice and experience from start to finish. The team at The Old Lantern is a well oiled machine and thanks to them, we had a gorgeous, stress free, super fun wedding ceremony and reception that we will cherish forever and our guests can not stop raving about. The Old Lantern is a full service wedding venue, which took so much stress out of the planning, execution, and expense that goes into a wedding. On top of that, the planning process was smooth and straight forward thanks to Julie, the event planner. She sent us all of the information we would need to provide to the team well in advance so that we had time to think about all of the details, as well as a timeline moving forward. When questions came up, Julie was easy to reach and responded so quickly. She also gave great advice across the board from where to save money, decor, menu options, and navigating traditions. During the planning phase, we had an opportunity to attend a wine dinner one evening. It was so nice to spend time in The Old Lantern all decorated, try out some of the food, get to know the team a bit more, and build the excitement envisioning our own wedding. Once our wedding weekend approached, we had our rehearsal with Lisa. She walked us through the day, eased our nerves, and let us know she'd be there with us keeping things running smoothly on our wedding and was she ever! Lisa was amazing! We were struck by her attention to detail, confidence and clarity working with our vendors, and how she seemingly appeared out of nowhere at any moment to lend a helping hand from attaching boutonnieres, bustling my dress, or fixing my mother in law's hair. Then it was on to the food. Chef Roland and his team did a wonderful job from the appetizers and main courses, to the cake! Our guests could not stop talking about how good the food was and saying how they'd never had such good food at a wedding before. Not only was the food delicious, but all of our guests were able to eat from the buffet regardless of allergies or dietary restrictions because of an amazing selection to choose from and Chef's flexibility altering dishes to meet our needs. Lastly, Mary Pat did a great job behind the bar and closed down the night seamlessly. We can't speak highly enough of the great work the team at The Old Lantern did to make our wedding such a success!

Hands down the best wedding venue we could of ever chosen for our wedding day! From the moment we met Julie for a walk through to see the property, we fell in love with everything they had to offer! Both Julie and Lisa were so very sweet, caring, knowledgeable, and overall the best at what they do to make our wedding day special. The old lantern comes with so many things already included that it makes planning seamless. Our guests have done nothing but rave about the food , about the venue, and just overall loved everything about our day . If your looking for a venue that is beautiful, budget friendly, and all inclusive , look no farther than The Old Lantern!

We had our wedding in May and we are so glad we picked the Old Lantern Barn. We had to plan our wedding by emails and phone calls because we don’t live near and they did amazing. They are so organized and helpful with everything. Even the day of the wedding I thought my dad had to decorate the place by himself and the team was there taking care of everything. They also provide decorations for couple that don’t want to take care of it or can’t afford wedding decorations. The food was AMAZING. We had so many good comments from our guest. A big thank you to the Old Lantern Barn for making the best day of our live perfect !!

My husband and I had the best day to celebrate our marriage with our friends and family! We highly recommed renting out the inn for two nights and hosting a dinner the night before the wedding, it is so charming and conveniently located a quick 5 minute walk from the barn. Julie and Lisa are the best wedding planners you could for ask for, they made every step easy and organized all the details. Chef Roland's food was phenomenal, their staff and bartenders are the best. Truly a hidden gem nestled in the Geen Mountain State. Our guests traveled from Las Vegas, Florida, New York and New Jersey and were extemely impressed with the high level of services provided. Also be sure to work off of their "Our Favorites" list on their website, the vendors they have listed work amazing and have great relationships with Julie and Lisa and make your special day stress free! Worth every penny spent on the day, we're looking forward to our next big celebration so we can return.

We could not have had a better experience with this venue, from the beginning of the planning process through to the end of the wedding night. The owner and coordinator both were incredibly helpful and warm, and incredibly professional and organized, making it super easy and clear to prepare for the wedding, find vendors, make sure we were on track with planning as the wedding approached, and keeping everything moving the day of, always with a smile on their face. On top of this, the space, inside and out (especially in fall!) is just stunning, and the perfect place for a Vermont wedding. Again, can't praise them enough!

We got married at the Old Lantern this August and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a wedding venue. No matter if you get married inside or outside it is stunning! The venue provides all decorations so we only had to bring in a few things which made things easy and stress free. The staff communicated with us the throughout the entire process, took care of everything we needed and made our vision a reality. Julie set up the barn the day of and it matched our vision perfectly. It ended up raining right before our ceremony and the staff quickly moved everything inside and made it just as beautiful as it would have been outside. Many of our guests commented that they didn't even know it was supposed to be outside! Lisa made the entire day stress free and I didn't have to worry about anything! We were able to enjoy our day without stressing over the details because they made everything so easy! Anyone looking for a rustic, elegant wedding venue should get married here!

The Old Lantern was amazing!!! Our wedding was an incredibly beautiful and special day. We got so many compliments on the food, the venue was beautiful, and Lisa was so professional and helpful the day of...she helped everything go off without a hitch! We could not have done it without her. Our photographs on the grounds came out to be so beautiful I couldn't believe it. You can't go wrong with the Old Lantern!!

Words cannot describe how happy my husband and I are that we chose The Old Lantern as our wedding venue on August 11, 2018. Our wedding day was PERFECT in every way. From the food to the drinks to to the decorations to the seamless execution of it all, Old Lantern far exceeded any expectations we had for our special day. Julie, Lisa and Roland answered all of our questions all year long and accommodated all of our requests without hesitation. Julie was our fearless leader throughout our engagement and lessened the stress of wedding planning by tenfold. Lisa took care of us on our wedding day and I wish I could bring her with me everywhere. She was organized, insightful and knew what we needed before we even knew it ourselves! She allowed us to have the most care-free and enjoyable day spent with our guests and we are so grateful for that. Thank you with our whole hearts, Old Lantern team, for making our wedding day unforgettable. Our guests continue to tell us it was the best wedding they'd ever been to. If you are a couple shopping for a venue, look no more! The Old Lantern takes care of you beyond anything you can imagine and you will be overjoyed with their hospitality and support.

When people complimented us on our wedding, all we could say was, "We didn't do much...we just chose an amazing venue!!" Seriously, Old Lantern took care of everything! Julie and Lisa were professional and timely throughout the process, which was vital because we were planning our wedding from a distance. We especially appreciated the personal attention Lisa gave to our parents when they came to visit. Old Lantern was upfront and honest about their charges, no hidden fees or surprises and we could trust them at every turn to give us the best advice for the wedding we wanted. They worked with our father-in-law to figure the alcohol offerings we wanted. I was absolutely blown away by the personal attention we received the day of. Lisa was truly, genuinely excited about our wedding and our family, and enthusiastically joined in the joy. She took care of every little incident that popped up calmly, from my bustle to a medical emergency to us showing up half an hour early. It was so reassuring to have her on top of all that was happening during the reception. My maid of honor kept asking, "Who is doing this, this, etc.?" and it felt SO good to say, our venue's got it! Several of our guests kept asking, "Did you eat yet?" Lisa made sure that we were served so quickly and quietly that people hadn't even noticed and it allowed us to say hi to almost all our guests (165 guests). Our wedding party stayed at the Inn, which was really lovely and we took advantage of the living room hangout space--and the breakfast was truly great! The challenges of our wedding: 165 guests, planned from across the country, ceremony in a different place were totally overcome by Old Lantern's excellent service. I was initially concerned that there was only one DJ option that they heavily recommended (Top Hat), but we ended up very happy with their work the day of! Five stars there, too.

Wow! We just hosted a wedding at the Old Lantern Barn and were totally blown away by what an amazing job they did. From the beginning, Lisa and Julie were great to work with--answering many questions, being incredibly flexible with our wants and needs and making very helpful recommendations. I've never worked with a venue that continually said: "Sure, we can do that." And they did--beautifully. The day of the wedding we had to make a quick switch from an outside ceremony to inside due to a surprise storm that blew in--within a half hour of our guests arriving! Yikes! Drenched to the skin, Lisa and Julie and their staff not only switched seating to inside but they salvaged our outdoor decorations and continued the program without a hitch! Our guests thought the ceremony was always meant to be inside! The evening moved along smoothly--so well staffed that no one had to wait for food or drinks and we got plenty of time for dancing. I also have to commend Julie on the magical decorations. From gift table to cookie table, dinner tables, flowers, and place card set up, she created a special feel that totally reflected the bride and groom's taste. She is amazing! It was a perfect wedding and all our guests agreed. "Most fun wedding ever" was heard all through the evening. In addition, Lisa and Julie gave us recommendations for florist and DJ and salon for hair and make up. These vendors were also amazing! We also rented the entire Inn for the weekend for our family to stay and to host hair and make up for the bride, bridesmaids and moms. The Inn was comfortable and had plenty of common areas for everyone to spread out and the breakfasts were great! As mother of the bride, I also appreciated that they took care of everything. No stress, they told us they would take care of things and they did--all the little details that you worry about, they just took care of them. I'm sorry this will be the only wedding we host because I would have another wedding at the Old Lantern Barn in a NY minute!

My husband and I just got married here a few days ago and we cannot say enough wonderful things about this beautiful venue. First, they take care of everything!! Set up, tear down, decorating the barn, centerpieces, scheduling, everything. They have someone the day of to make sure that everything goes according to plan and makes your life so much easier!! The barn was beautifully decorated with simple lights and rustic decor just like we wanted and the outside was so elegant and perfect for an outdoor wedding. The food was outstanding!!! Our guests all loved it and they served everyone so quickly hat no one was hungry. Lastly, the people we worked with were all AMAZING!! From planning everything to the day of Julie and Lisa had our backs and I’m so grateful that I was able to work with them. Cannot recommend this venue highly enough.

We had our wedding reception at the Old Lantern about two weeks ago, and feel incredibly lucky to have had our special day at this beautiful and fun venue. We had looked at a couple other venues for our wedding, but as soon as we saw the barn, the views, and began communicating with the Old Lantern team, we knew this was the perfect place! From the very beginning of our wedding planning, Julie, Lisa, Roland and the Old Lantern team, were extremely supportive, organized, and so great to work with. We couldn't wait for June 30th! Julie took on the role of wedding coordinator at our church ceremony, and made me and the wedding party feel so comfortable and confident going into the church. As soon as we arrived at the Old Lantern (after our church ceremony) on our wedding day for the reception, we were greeted with such warmth by Lisa and the Old Lantern team. On a day that can be nerve-wracking at times, we truly felt loved and supported throughout the whole night. I cannot tell you how many people complimented the décor, the food, and the overall vibe that the Old Lantern brings to such a wonderful event. Despite the incredible heat wave that we had to endure that weekend, this was such a magical night for us and for our family and friends. We thank the Old Lantern team for making our dreams come true with a lovely, rustic, elegant Vermont wedding that we had envisioned. We look back at our day with great smiles, laughs, and so many wonderful memories.

If you are considering booking The Old Lantern- do it! We really can not say enough positive things about The Old Lantern. From the start Julie was so helpful and really helped us envision what our reception would be like, even as we stood in the empty barn on a cold December day visiting the barn for the first time. She was there to answer any of my questions from the day we said yes to The Old Lantern and really helped me stay on top of a timeline. The Old Lantern offers tastings throughout the year, which are so exciting because it really gives you and idea of what your reception could feel like- plus you get to try Roland's amazing food! The day of the wedding was so wonderful. We had our wedding in a nearby church and once we pulled up to The Old Lantern Lisa was there to greet us and get us into our cocktail hour. The entire staff was awesome at our reception, we felt taken care of and they really went above and beyond to make us feel special. Our guests absolutely loved the food and the venue! Thank you Julie, Lisa, Roland and Staff!

We just had our June wedding at the Old Lantern. Julie and Lisa are both absolutely spectacular. We did not have a wedding planner, but Julie walked us through the whole process and was available to chat whenever we needed to. Everything was so organized, and we really didn't have to think about too much. We were coming from out of town and actually never really had a chance to go to VT before the wedding, so it was lovely that centerpieces (done by Lisa), many decorations, chairs etc. were all included and we didn't have to hire out separately. We stayed up at the Inn, which made getting ready and going to sleep after the reception so easy. We brought our own lawn games for the cocktail hour, which were also a total hit. We also used vendors off their recommended vendor list and were SO happy with the quality and affordability of all. If you are looking for an organized, rustic, easy, beautiful Vermont wedding with fantastic food, this is your place! We really highly recommend it and could not be happier reliving every minute of our amazing day.

Absolutely AMAZING venue for a wedding/event! My husband and I were married at The Old Lantern and we could not be more happy with how everything went. From the moment we stepped into the barn we knew it was were we wanted to have our big day. From beginning to end the owner and staff was beyond incredible to work with. Wedding planning can be super overwhelming and they made it so much easier and more fun. Any questions we had were answered promptly and all my wishes were met. We also decided to rent the Inn for our wedding weekend and we are so glad we made that choice! It was beautiful and a perfect place for myself and my bridesmaids to get ready and take some mazing pictures. It was just so convenient to have the Inn so close for before and after the wedding ceremony and reception. We also chose to have our ceremony in the barn due to not wanting to worry about weather at all. They decorated everything exactly how I asked them to and made our wedding day go so smoothly. I did not have to worry about a thing and was able to be relaxed and focused on my family and friends. Another part I really liked was how well staffed they were for the event. From the wait staff to the bartenders no one ever had to wait to be helped. It made the night very enjoyable for all who attended. I cannot thank Lisa, Roland, Julie, and the rest of the amazing staff enough. I will always recommend The Old Lantern over and over again.

I literally cannot say enough good things about the Old Latern Inn & Barn. From the day we went to look at the venue a year before our wedding, we thought it would be great, and they exceeded our expectations in every way. Julie is a GEM to work with and she is so responsive and helpful throughout the planning process. And the owners (and chef), Lisa and Roland, are fantastic the day of. Our guests did not stop raving about the venue, how gorgeous it was, the decor they provided (my husband and I didn't do much ourselves, but the venue was so well decorated by the staff that everyone thought we did); the staff; the fantastic location; and THE FOOD. The FOOD was off the charts. Our guests loved every second of it, and our day was actually flawless. These people are PROS in every sense of the word. I'd also like to add that having looked at other venues in and around Burlington, VT. This venue is the most bang for your buck out there. Choosing this venue and the wonderful staff and coordinators that came with it made planning the wedding beyond easy and enjoyable. I cannot say enough good things about the Old Lantern. I would recommend them to everyone and anyone getting married in the area. Best decision we made.

The team at Old Lantern is wonderful! Julie works with you from the start and is great at getting everything set up for you! Then Lisa executes on the day. We had a nontraditional ceremony set up and Lisa killed it--we couldn't have been happier! All of our friends and family tell us it was incredibly intimate, and it all happened because of Lisa and Julie. Chef made an excellent dinner, and people were well served by Mary-Pat at the bar. Their strength is offering you wedding options that very easy to execute--which I appreciated so so much. A note--if you're someone who is super into every little detail getting executed it would probably help to get a day of coordinator, as a few little details fell through the cracks. BUT that's the same with every venue/big event I think where the bride is not a pro wedding planner, and when you marry your best friend in a beautiful ceremony, often those things don't matter :) The place was set-up beautifully by Julie and the barn looked absolutely gorgeous!! We also had a lot of family stay at the inn which I couldn't recommend enough. Lisa does a great job with the food there and we all felt like family. Seriously couldn't recommend them enough, everyone should get married here!
