Destination Wedding Venues
Destination weddings in Maine are the best -beautiful locations that celebrate a natural and beautiful landscape, and activities for weekend wedding guests. Maine is province over vast landscape, home to wide sandy beaches, ocean views, pristine lakes, and rugged coastal backdrops making the state an attractive location for a destination wedding. Even for those traveling to Maine for their destination wedding within New England will feel the unique tempo of Maine's gorgeous setting. Maine is not as populated as southern states along the coast, making it special, scenic, un-crowded, and a far more affordable destination wedding.

 

Bride and grooms to be can find anything from seaside venues where wedding parties takeover the hotel, or a destination wedding immersed in nature at a lakefront campground or ski resort in summer with a chairlift ride to the summit for your ceremony. Perhaps an influencing feature of Maine destination weddings is that venues are generally more affordable when comparing to nearby destinations like Boston or New York City. And your guests can enjoy Maine activities before the ceremony and reception, fishing, sailing, hiking, golf or a day at the beach during your Maine wedding weekend. Maine invites you to a memorable stay for your destination wedding.
