East Coast Vineyard Weddings

Napa and Sonoma are not the only regions in the country hosting vineyard weddings. We do have major differences on the East Coast to contend with {um, the weather for one}, but you can find several drink worthy sites to hold your reception.
The East End of Long Island, Rhode Island, Vermont and yes, New Hampshire all have vineyards hoping you will book your event under their roof or near their vines. Long Island wines are gaining popularity and of course having lived there, I have sampled many. Knowing the quality of wine of the vineyards you are considering is very important. Most wineries will only allow you to serve their wines for your reception. But take heed – some of these locations will let you customize bottle labels {think table numbers / names or favors for your guests}.
Here are a few of the vineyards we know of that host weddings in New England:
Haight-Brown Vineyard, Hopkins Vineyard, Rosedale Farms and Vineyard, Alfalfa Farm Winery, Hardwick Vineyard and Winery, Les Trois Emme Winery, Nashoba Valley Winery, Zorvino, Snow Farm Vineyard, Grand View Winery, Honora Winery and Vineyard
Long Island Vineyards:
Bedell Cellars, Martha Clara Vineyards, Osprey Dominion Vineyards, The Old Fields Vineyards, Pellegrini Vineyards,, Shinne Estate Vineyards, Vineyard 48, Pindar Vineyards, Clovis Point, Macari Vineyards and Wolffer Estate Vineyards
Cheers!
