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!

The Barn was originally built in the year 1830 in Oxford, Maine, and used to be a dairy farm and apple orchard owned by the Pratt family. In 2015, it was transformed into an idyllic wedding & special event venue. The 1830 Wedding Barn is a classic, New England gem set back off of Route 26, surrounded by Maine farmland.

The barn’s historic quality creates a unique experience for guests to celebrate any event. Outside of the barn you will see rolling hills, fields stretching to the edge of the woods, trees from the original apple orchard (which we still bake pies from!), and sunsets fading to the western side of the property. Guests are welcome to enjoy and explore the outside areas of the existing apple orchard and surrounding grounds.

Without a doubt there is no better place for a Maine island wedding than Chebeague Island Inn. Not only is the setting beautiful, but the team at the Inn went above and beyond to help us have our dream wedding, despite having to scale down due to COVID. We are convinced that Caitlyn is the sweetest, most accommodating person in the entire Maine wedding industry. She did everything from answering our millions of questions to even setting up the arbor and ceremony space. She was extremely flexible with all of the changes that we threw her way! Our guests thoroughly enjoyed "getting away" to a quaint little island for the weekend as well as experiencing the incredible food the Inn has to offer. Everything we had was delicious and our bartender, Ryan, made sure the late night party did not disappoint. We are incredibly thankful for Caitlyn and the rest of the team at Chebeague Island Inn and cannot wait to come back and visit on our anniversary! Thank you a million times over!!!

Luke's was the perfect spot to welcome our guests from around the country to Maine! The views are incredible (it's one of the few event spots in Portland that is actually on the water) and the lobster rolls were raved about by all of our guests! Rita and the team were amazing to work with and made sure everything went exactly as planned. They had plenty of non-seafood options for us too and the drink menu was perfect with Maine beers and super fun cocktails. We were on the gorgeous upstairs deck and bar area which made for guests to mingle and meet each other. A big highlight was when one of the boats hauled in two tunas in view of the party, people were talking about it all weekend long! The welcome party was definitely one of the best parts of our entire weekend.

My husband and I had one goal in mind when we were planning our recent wedding: we wanted everyone to have fun! There is not a better place we could have imagined for our wedding than Bayside Bowl!! From our first FaceTime to the sweet note we just got in the mail two weeks after our wedding, every step of the process was smooth and we couldn't have been in better hands than with Micaela and the entire team at Bayside. With a wedding of a little over 100 people, we got pretty much unanimous feedback that our wedding at Bayside was one of the most fun that anyone had ever attended. In truth, this is largely due to the care and ease with which Micaela managed everything! We had an absolutely stress-free wedding and felt so well-taken care of throughout the event and in the run up. You'll enjoy the tasting event where you get to sample offerings from Bayside's awesome menu before your wedding, and the food was also a hit with the guests! We couldn't have wished for a more perfect wedding weekend than the one we had at Bayside.

We had our wedding at The Noble House Inn Venue and were thrilled with our experience. Matt and Lynn have created a stunning newly renovated venue and take so much pride in ensuring couples have a perfect wedding day.
