We had our wedding here in early October, and the setting couldn't have been more perfect! It is a beautiful venue, and working with Mike and Essie was seamless. Staying at the attached farmhouse with our friends for the weekend was the perfect addition to our celebration! It made our wedding an entire experience that we could savor rather than one night that went by just way too fast. Highly recommend Barn on Walnut Hill as an incredible wedding venue!

  • Starts at $6,000

Maine Studio Works is now available for private party rentals. Whether you’re looking to host an intimate gathering of 30, or a full-scale wedding celebration for 300, we have the space to accommodate your next celebration.

On September 21st, 2024 my husband and I got married at Maine Studio Works with 143 guests. We got ready in “studio A” then had our ceremony, dinner and reception in ”studio B”. I don’t even know where to start with how amazing this venue was for our wedding. Great location with a blank canvas that allows you to make the space your own! The best part about using this venue for our wedding was working with the owners, Nora and Zack. Weddings can be stressful and overwhelming but Nora and Zack made it such a fun and positive experience. They went above and beyond as venue owners. They are both easy going, attentive, professional, accommodating and most of all creative when it came to helping us execute our vision in their space. Our favorite things about the space included; having studio A to get ready in, walking out of the big sliding door towards the aisle, having the garage door which opened up to outdoor space, and the tall ceilings which helped the room feel big and not too loud. Our guests were in love with the venue. To this day our guests comment on how cool the space was to get married in and how we were so lucky to work with such a great team. Nora and Zack are two of the most down to earth people I’ve ever met and highly recommend using their space for your next event!
