I had my wedding June 11, 2022 and could not have asked for a more amazing venue. It is DROP DEAD GORGEOUS and naturally beautiful. Absolutely stunning and unique. My guests can't stop talking about how special the wedding venue was and were constantly wowed by the authentic Maine forest surrounding. The new owners, Matt and Abby, were incredibly responsive, helpful, and flexible when we needed help. We had catered food for the bridal suite the morning of but they forgot to include silverware! Matt ran out personally and got us some. They made the wedding venue feel really personal for the day, not just another hotel ballroom. The barns offer unique ways to make your wedding truly yours. We used the smaller barn for the cocktail hour which was fun to have people milling about, then fit 150 people for a seated dinner reception and a big band and dance floor! Tons of space, tons of dancing, and beautiful brand new bathrooms and bar off to the side. It really is a special location to have a wedding and your guests will truly be wowed.

We got married at Fairytale Gardens & Weddings in September 2024. What originally drew us to this venue was how relatively affordable it was, and how beautiful the barn and forest-side photos were. Erin and Maria were the ones who dealt with us in the months leading up to the wedding, and seamlessly coordinated everything on the day of. They were absolutely crucial in making the planning and execution of our big day everything we could have wanted. They are both caring professionals and are excellent at what they do. They accommodated our every wish and desire and provided thoughtful feedback when necessary. One of our favorite aspects of the venue was the "pay-it-forward attic". Fairytale Gardens & Weddings has an attic full of decorations, signs, etc. This was a huge time and money saver for us and allowed us to round out the barn and table decor. If you are looking for a wonderful, caring, friendly, and special venue, you need not look any further! Attached images credited to Julia Andrew Fine Art Photos

I attended one of the events that they hosted (not a wedding, but they have a bunch of different types of events come through regularly), and I LOVED the spot! My fiancé & I are debating having our 2025 wedding reception here next year. We heard nothing but great things about the owners, and the staff working the event seemed to be having a blast. We loved that it's so different from your typical stuffy, overly-elegant wedding venue. This is a photo studio that is run by 2 photographers, and the vibe feels more NYC than Maine. Concrete floors with high ceilings, white walls, in the brewery district of Portland.
