In the heart of Vermont, cradled by the Taconic and Green Mountains, stands the truly grand Hildene Estate. This historic property, once the summer home of Robert Todd Lincoln, Abraham Lincoln’s son, became the perfect backdrop for Lauren and Dusty’s wedding, marking a new chapter after ten wonderful years. Historic Manchester Village itself is pure New England charm, brimming with intriguing shops, delicious eateries, and picturesque churches. It’s no wonder even lifelong Vermonters like Lauren and Dusty are drawn to it for their most special occasions, with Hildene reigning as the undisputed highlight of this beautiful locale.
