Weddings at Rocklands

Old-World, Pastoral weddings with wildcrafted florals, local food and low intervention wine

Rocklands Farm Winery is a working farm with 100 acres of pasture, vineyards and flower meadows in Maryland's Agricultural Reserve. The wine in your glass was made out back. The flowers on your tables were cut the dewy morning of your wedding.

We host a limited number of weddings each year, on Saturdays in May, June, September, and October. Limited by choice, so that every couple gets our full attention and the farm feels like it's yours.

Please share your contact information so our team can follow up on your inquiry.

What Makes Us Different

There are a lot of beautiful places to get married near DC.
Here's what makes us different.

We are flower farmers, cattle ranchers, winemakers, and families inviting you to join us in our home and livelihood. Our vision is for you to celebrate and recreate a joyous evening of feasting and merriment in the barn akin to what those hand-hewn beams have seen in years past.

The Spaces

    Event Support

    PLANNING & DAY-OF COORDINATION

    From your first tour to the final walk through a month before the wedding, we are with you. We'll help you think through the details that matter, from flowers and wine selections to vendor timing, and how the day flows from one space to the next. When your wedding day arrives, you’ll feel calm and relaxed.

    Getting Ready

    BRIDE & GROOM SPACES

    The farm has beautiful spaces to get ready and spend some intimate time with your closest family and friends before the guests arrive. It's quiet, private, and far enough from the action that you can relax before the ceremony. Some of our couples' favorite photos of the day are taken here.

    The Ceremony

    SAYING “I DO”

    Most of our ceremonies take place on the Stone House lawn, with the 1870s Sandstone house as the backdrop and the open Maryland sky above. It's unhurried and grounding because everything around you is alive and real.

  • A couple stands in the vineyard at Rocklands Farm Winery, surrounded by lush green grapevines, with a large tree and cloudy sky in the background, and their reflection visible in a water mirror below.

    Mingling

    WINE & PHOTOGRAPHS

    While you take portraits in the vineyard, meadows, and gardens, your guests will mingle in the barnyard lawn with a glass of Rocklands wine. The farm gives people room to wander, settle in, and find each other.

  • A rustic outdoor table set for a gathering at Rocklands Farm Winery, decorated with a floral centerpiece featuring white and red flowers, surrounded by plates, cutlery, glasses, fresh strawberries, bread, and a jar of water.

    Feasting

    DINNER
    The Bank Barn opens up for the wedding feast. Long farmhouse tables, warm wood tones, string lights and pastoral views are visible through the wide open doors. Imagine a romping good time at the community farm, embellished with the elegance of abundant flowers, local food, music and dancing deep into the night.

    Merriment

    FIREPITS & DANCING

    As the evening winds down and the cicadas and stars are out, you meander to the bonfire to take a break from the dancing and catch up with your out of town cousins under the twinkling lights. We leave the fire going until it's time to go home.

  • We work with a curated list of catering partners rather than a single in-house kitchen. We work with preferred caterers who know the farm well and are set up to handle everything from intimate dinners to full-day events to drop-off service.

  • Yes, with some guidelines. We are intentional about what comes onto the farm to keep the space safe for our animals, our guests, and the property itself. The following items are not permitted: helium balloons, confetti or glitter, rice throwing, pop-up tents, open flames, smoke or fog machines, adhesives of any kind, drones and inflatable decor. Beyond that, we are happy to talk through your vision. Many of our event hosts find that the farm does most of the decorating on its own.

  • Most events range from 20 to 120 people, though we can accommodate up to 300 guests across the farm.

  • We have preferred vendors we can share with you when you’re ready to book with us. We require our guests to choose a caterer from our list of local chefs who are familiar with our farm. You’re welcome to reserve your own vendors for a photographer. As a flower farm, your bouquets and centerpieces will be Rocklands florals.
