Josie was super flexible and really allowed us to execute our day however we wanted, from hand picking the menu to assisting all of our guests with their bags and even making extra late night trips to pick up late arrivals. The entire staff at Attean were a complete joy to work with. Our wedding day was an absolute dream come true! The cabins are comfortable with stunning views, the food was out of this world, and we felt so welcome and comfortable as a queer couple. We wouldn't change a thing about our experience at Attean Lake Lodge.

Established in 1750 as an English land grant in the picturesque White Mountains of Maine (then the “Massachusetts Bay Colony”), Hardy Farm remained in the same family for ten generations prior to being purchased by Greg and Deborah Link in 2001. After a The Links transformed Hardy Farm into a very special and unique “rustic elegant” venue for weddings and events offering an authentically historic feel, with a distinctly unique ambiance of contemporary yet rustic elegance featuring all of today's modern amenities. Hardy Farm accommodates up to 32 people overnight and the property encompasses 13 acres with beautiful gardens and stone patios, fire pit, the farmhouse, barn, lodge, woodland chapel, and their own 103’ sailcloth tent. Guests at Hardy Farm enjoy the beautiful rural New England setting with convenient proximity to North Conway, NH, and the Mt. Washington Valley, offering a myriad of year-round outdoor activities.

We could not be happier with this venue. It was charming, cozy, and all our guests fell in love with it. The owners were amazing to work with and made us feel comfortable and warm and were attentive to every need and question. There is not a single thing more we could have asked for. And not to mention- it is stunning and magical.

Penobscot Bay Estate

Winterport, ME
  • Up to 160 guests
  • Select services
  • Outdoor
  • Starts at $17,500

Penobscot Bay Weddings is a quintessential Coastal Maine tented venue in Winterport, Maine! •Access to the 7 acre waterfront property Thursday-Sunday. •Access to our 4,000 sq ft private residence on the day of your wedding (14' ceilings in getting read suite, stain glass windows, curved staircase, vintage furniture & more) •Ceremony on the water's edge with seating for 160 guests. •30'x40' Clear Top Tent for ceremony rain coverage •44'x103' Sailcloth tent for the reception. Includes lights, tables, chairs, and dance floor for 160 guests. •Honeymoon cottage for 2 people for three nights. •Space for food trucks, rehearsal dinner, or Sunday brunch!

It is hard to put into words how special this venue is. My husband and I toured the property with Emerald back in November 2022 and instantly fell in love with it -- it was the second venue we saw, and we didn't see any others after. There was something about Emerald's genuine care for the space and for the couples that she worked with that really stood out to us. She has a deep connection to the property and we watched her build it up into the masterpiece it is today. We got married in May 2024, and it was truly the best day of our lives. The view, the ceremony space, the reception tent, the getting-ready areas -- all of it was so full of charm and so stunningly beautiful. Our wedding party stayed in the four cabins and we stayed in the adorable honeymoon suite. When we arrived for our wedding weekend, we looked at the view and made a vow to return to this place when we could. We were able to use a golf cart to transport decorations (and people) around the property, which was a life safer! In addition to the spectacular setting, Emerald's commitment is unmatched. She communicated with us consistently throughout the 1.5 years we spent planning and answered all of our (many, many) questions promptly. She sent us little gifts, solicited feedback from us about new property changes, and connected us with other amazing vendors. Her husband Kurt was also incredibly kind and so helpful on our wedding day. Bonus: their kids are adorable!! Penobscot Bay Estate is truly a magical place and was the perfect space for us to begin our lives together. Pro tip: use the honeymoon tub! it was so fun!!

I got married at the Board Landing Farm, about a year ago. I still can't believe how picture perfect it turned out. My wife grew up in Maine and we couldn't have a asked for a better location and venue to exchange our vows and share it with our closest friends and family. Right from the very beginning, BLF was easy to work with, and given it's easy location, most of our vendors had either experience or familiarity with the venue. Tents were set up 2 days prior to the wedding day, florist decorated the day of, and the catering had their own access way to be out of the way for the guests. Best part was the landscape setting for the photographers to work their magic - the waterfall, the tidal river, the pier, the large glacial rock, the expansive but unique lawn, and the rustic farmhouse - all added to the magic. In the end, me and wife made some beautiful memories that will stay with us forever. If you're looking to get married anywhere in Maine, it is hard to beat BLF as a wedding venue.

PERFECT. One word to describe this venue, the owners (Rebecca & Ryan), everything about our wedding weekend and the planning leading up to it. My (now) husband and I booked this venue without me even seeing it! The pictures are beautiful and don't do it justice! From the farmhouse to the barn to the cabin to the ceremony site, you name it, it is a breathtaking venue. Rebecca and Ryan are so easy to work with and are there if and whenever you need them!

We had our wedding at AMC Medawisla in September 2023 and would highly recommend the venue after touring countless others in Maine! John, Charlene and the rest of the AMC staff allowed us to highly customize the weekend by cooking some of our favorite foods, adding additional signage so that our guests wouldn't get lost, and overall making the weekend as smooth as possible. Our guests enjoyed the star gazing! We appreciated that all our guests could stay onsite and some of cabins included bathrooms and showers for those that wanted a less rustic experience. We were nervous about black flies but ultimately it wasn't an issue at all even at dusk. Even though we had gorgeous weather, the dinning room in the Lodge is a fantastic back up rain option.

The Lucerne Inn was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the moment we first reached out, their communication was prompt and thorough, addressing all of our questions and requests. The venue itself is absolutely beautiful and spacious - the perfect backdrop for our special day. The staff was not only friendly, but they remembered us throughout the weekend and offered congratulations when they saw us walking around. They accommodated our every request without hesitation, including an oddball request to measure the dance floor area for our wedding choreographer. We felt we had a very personal and warm experience at the Lucerne, and I would highly recommend them to any couple looking for a stunning and well-run wedding venue.
