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.

Awarded Best of Zola
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.

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. If you're looking for a venue with exceptional service, a picturesque location, and a personal touch, we wholeheartedly recommend Meadow Ridge Farm. It was the perfect spot for us, and we couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate our union.

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!!
