Luke's Lobster Portland Pier offers you a beautiful space with wide windows that offer an amazing view to the Casco Bay. Our space is open 7 days/week and can hold all your events, from Wedding Showers and Rehearsal Dinner to Welcome Parties and Weddings.

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.

Just like your wedding, the Colony Hotel is a classic. Our historic grand oceanfront resort in Kennebunkport, Maine provides the perfect setting for your perfect day! Enjoy cocktails on our Ocean Porch overlooking the shimmering Atlantic, then dance the afternoon away in our Grand Dining Room. Your guests will be spoiled with scrumptious food, an unforgettable ambiance, and classic New England hospitality.

Growing up in Kennebunkport we had high expectations for our wedding at The Colony. Of course, the venue speaks for itself as the perfect backdrop for any wedding. No one will question that The Colony offers the best grounds and views for a wedding held in Kennebunkport. Our wedding was 130 people and the lawn (ceremony), front porch (cocktail hour), and ballroom (reception) were all great spaces for our guests. Our wedding day far exceeded our expectations and was truly a magical day for us, our family, and our friends. What truly set this experience apart was our wedding coordinator, Nicole. Her dedication, creativity, and organization made the planning process seamless and enjoyable. She went above and beyond to ensure every detail was tailored to our vision. On the big day, we felt well prepared, and Nicole orchestrated everything flawlessly, allowing us to focus on enjoying each moment without any stress. We cannot thank her enough for the work put in to making the day perfect! Also of note, the food and drinks were exceptional, and we still have friends and family raving about the meal several months after the event (we went with the buffet option). We will happily recommend The Colony to anyone looking to have their special day in southern Maine!

Southport, ME
  • Up to 112 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor

If you’re looking for a scenic place to say “I do,” consider hosting your dream wedding at Newagen Seaside Inn! Our stunning oceanfront property is a wonderful place to invite your friends and family for a memorable celebration. At Newagen Seaside Inn, we’ve celebrated generations of beautiful, meaningful coastal Maine weddings and oceanfront wedding receptions for delighted and grateful couples. Smaller wedding parties and more spontaneous couples can still enjoy an oceanfront wedding at the historic Newagen Seaside Inn just minutes from Boothbay Harbor. We know real Maine weddings are authentic celebrations of your love and lifestyle, and we know your perfect Maine Coast wedding venue needs to be as unique as you are. Ready to get in touch with our wedding coordinators?

I cannot say enough about this incredible venue. From the beautiful property, to the attentive and friendly staff, Newagen made our entire wedding weekend smooth and seamless. Newagen offers all the charm of a small quaint Maine Inn with the delivery and professionalism of a large well run venue. Maura was amazing and responsive with the booking of the venue and sales process. She was so responsive in answering all my questions and helping us navigate putting the weekend structure together. The reins were smoothly handed over to Tiffany as the weekend got closer and she ensured everything ran smoothly through the weekend. We held a lobster bake Friday evening, ceremony and reception Saturday and a farewell breakfast Sunday morning. Every single aspect was flawless. Tiffany and her team kept things running on time, making sure everything I brought (decorations and the like) was put out so that my husband and I could just spend time with friends and family. It felt that every time I had a concern or a question, I could ask Tiffany and she'd have already thought of it/handled it. I truly cannot say enough about how amazing the staff was. From the front desk staff, managers, coordinators to the waiters, everyone made us and our guests feel at home, taken care of and special. My husband and I will definitely be returning to celebrate anniversaries and will recommend this venue to anyone. The property has so much to offer guests (pool, pickle ball, sunset path) and is not far from the cute downtown harbor and local sites like the coastal Maine botanical gardens. The chef was fantastic and the food was delicious. Highly recommend going to their pub for a bite if you are in the area and are considering this venue.

White Mountain Weddings 

5.0

Freedom, NH
  • Up to 400 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $16,250

We have something for everyone at your wedding! Treat your friends and family to a weekend of campfires and lakeside beach parties. With a variety of waterfront activities, field sports, and traditional camp fun, it’s sure to be a weekend to remember. Having your own 100-acre private lakeside resort for the weekend makes a great wedding venue. It gives you and your guests a chance to spend quality time with each other, beyond the constraints of a typical 5-hour wedding reception. Our site, facilities, and setting match almost any wedding venue in the northeast, and our food and customer service is outstanding.

Choosing Camp Cody as our wedding venue was a huge decision and an excellent choice. Anna was so helpful throughout the process, and Dora was amazing weekend of–I never saw her standing still. The venue is so gorgeous, and being able to host our friends and family for a whole weekend made everything go by more slowly, with plenty of opportunities to connect with everyone. The Capture the Flag game we held morning of was a big highlight. The food was INCREDIBLE, and our guests haven’t stopped commenting on it. Everyone says you don’t eat at your wedding, and you better believe that was not true for us. As a person with a lot of food allergies, I’ve never felt more cared for and accommodated, and it was amazing to have that for our guests as well. In one notable moment, my cousin with celiac jumped with joy at the prospect of having gluten free pancakes and french toast for breakfast. The accommodations were comfortable, even in 30-40 degree temps overnight, the heat really works! Staying on site and not having to run around everywhere looking for everything and everyone made a big difference as someone without a planner. Also, arranging folks in cabins was not as stressful as we expected it to be. With our smaller wedding, we had plenty of space to spread people out. Thank you again to White Mountain Weddings for an amazing weekend!
