Board Landing Farm is a treasure on the water. A terrific venue for couples wanting the quintessential Maine experience complete with bald eagles flying overhead! There are multiple locations for the ceremony- on the pier, in front of a beautiful glacial rock, or at the top of hill overlooking the water. There is easy vehicle access to each vista, so it is easy to get supplies in and out. Lovely sloped setting helps create multiple viewpoints, with flatter spots for a large tent. A beautiful and rustic location.

I recently had the pleasure of having my wedding at Penobscott Bay Estate, and I can honestly say it was the most magical experience! From the moment we arrived, the beautiful scenery took our breath away. The views of the bay provided the perfect backdrop for our ceremony, making every photo look like a dream. The overnight cabins were an amazing addition to our experience. Each cabin was beautifully appointed and offered a cozy, charm that made our stay feel truly special. It was wonderful to have our closest people together, creating an intimate atmosphere that we will cherish forever. What truly set Penobscott Bay Estates apart were the amazing owners. Emerald went above and beyond to ensure that every detail of our day was perfect. From helping coordinate the setup to offering advice and support throughout the planning process, her warmth, energy and dedication made all the difference. If you’re looking for a beautiful venue with exceptional service, I highly recommend Penobscott Bay Estate. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect place to start our journey together! Thank you for making our wedding unforgettable

We had the most incredible experience with Meadow Ridge Farm as our wedding venue, and it will always hold a special place in our hearts. From the moment we started planning, Rebecca and Ryan, the owners, were exceptionally kind and helpful. Their warm hospitality and attentive support throughout the entire weekend, as well as in the lead-up to our wedding, made everything so much easier and more enjoyable. One of the standout features of Meadow Ridge Farm was the opportunity for our wedding party to stay on-site for the entire weekend. This not only added to the convenience but also allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the celebration and enjoy every moment with our loved ones. The venue itself was the perfect backdrop for our wedding. Its charm and beauty were exactly what we envisioned for our special day. Meadow Ridge Farm truly provided an unforgettable setting for us to marry and bring our families together.

The Lucerne Inn was absolutely exceptional in helping make our wedding day truly special. From their very tentative and detail-oriented communication style, we felt confident that every aspect of our event would be flawlessly executed. And they delivered on that promise - the food was amazing, the hall was beautiful, and the day-of coordinator was incredibly helpful in ensuring everything went smoothly. The owner even checked in with us to make sure we were enjoying our day, which was a thoughtful touch. I would wholeheartedly recommend the Lucerne Inn to any couple looking for a venue that will make their wedding day exceptional.

  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $7,000

The 1812 Farm is a year round setting for your event. Our unique mix of historic setting and unmatched level of catering quality, elegant surroundings and appointments appeals to the most discerning taste

We are so happy we chose The 1812 Farm for our special day and would heartily and readily suggest it to anyone looking for a venue. I literally cannot sing their praises enough for how perfect they helped make our day. The 1812 Farm was the perfect venue for our July 2024 Wedding and we could not be happier with the experience we had working with Sarah, Olivia, and the larger team. The 1812's team is not only super responsive, but extremely helpful as a sounding board. Any questions we had were answered promptly, any ideas we wanted to float were approached thoughtfully, and this team truly lessened any kind of wedding planning stress. As for the venue itself, it was gorgeous. The flowers were in bloom in the garden where we had our ceremony and the inner venue where we had our reception was so well put together. The 1812 team set all my decorations up for me after I provided an example of what I was going for and that immediately lessened any day-of stress that morning. Both my husband's half of the party and my own had plenty of space to get ready separately in the Bristol Suite on site too, which was perfect. Having prep in the same place as ceremony and reception just streamlined our entire day. I also love that even when the lights were dimmed inside later in the night for dancing, there was still plenty of light to see and talk by and our guests adored the outdoor bar and thought it was super cute. The 1812 also uses Stone Cove Catering and we loved the ease of building out the menu with the same people we already were in contact with for the venue. It made everything so smooth and we knew there would be no confusion or fuss as meals were served because the caterers are the venue and know the routine and space. Once the party actually started after dinner, I had multiple guests come up to me to rave about how good dinner and cocktail hour apps were- literally so good that multiple people made comments about it right after eating. Can't ask for better than that. And my husband and I were beyond happy with our own meal and the post-ceremony oyster treat that Stone Cove Catering helped us plan for ourselves. If I were planning this wedding all over, I'd still pick the 1812!
