Maine Brides!

Samantha, on September 4, 2020 at 2:14 PM Posted in Maine Planning 0 5
I live in Maine and am looking to get married in fall of 2022. We have a very tight budget, like $10,000 for the entire wedding. I was looking for some ideas of what other Maine brides did for inexpensive wedding venues, everything I come across is just way too much, it’s very frustrating 😞

    Hi Samantha!

    Have you checked out High Mountain Hall in Campden? It's beautiful. My partner and I looked at it but it wasn't quite what we were looking for, but the prices are very good. Atlantic Oceanside Hotel in Bar Harbor is all inclusive and will probably cost closer to $13-$14,000 similar to the Lucerne Inn. I would also recommend you check out the Terratine in Bangor and the Castine Museum. Unique spaces, great food options. Maine weddings are EXTREMELY expensive, I would highly recommend you reconsider your budget - look at where you can cut costs, what you can live without on your wedding day etc. For example open bar vs. cash bar, DJ vs. creating your own playlist, guest list size etc.

    Do you have any family here? Do you have a specific part of Maine you want to be in? My partner and I are also planning and you and I should totally connect and chat!!

    High mountain hall is one of the top contenders on our list! I’m actually not from Maine so all of my family will have to travel for the wedding, we’re trying to stay in southern Maine but not opposed to having to take a little drive!

    Hi Samantha! About how many guests are you thinking? The smaller the guest list the easier it will be to stay within that budget!

    Check out Garden Gate at Haley Farm, Agora Grand Event Center, The 1812 Farm, Caswell Farm, Hardy Farm, The Governor Hill Mansion, and Diamond's Edge Restaurant & Marina to start!

    I would look at Meadowbrook Reception Center in Eddington, Maine. Its all inclusive, you just need attire, hair and makeup and any extra decorations you want to add to what they offer, all for 6500 for a Saturday wedding, 500 down and broke up into monthly payments.

    Not sure where you are located but we rented the Canaan farmers hall for 300.00. And we get it for the whole weekend
