It’s a 10/10!
My husband and I recently got married at the Boothbay Playhouse and we seriously could not imagine having a better experience. The owners and their staff go above and beyond and were there at every turn to help ensure that we had a memorable weekend. They worked through every detail and logistic with us with clear and quick communication, and were really there for us when we had a few last minute and day of hiccups. The space itself is stunning and rich with history - a true Midcoast Maine gem. We cannot recommend them enough! Be sure to check them out on IG @boothbayplayhouseevents for more information! If you choose to have your event here, I guarantee you will have an incredible experience just like we did.
An Unforgettable Wedding
The Boothbay Playhouse was the perfect venue for our wedding. The beautiful outdoor setting and rustic charm created an enchanting atmosphere that our guests loved. The staff went above and beyond to ensure everything was flawless, making the entire day stress-free and enjoyable. The reception space was ideal for dining, dancing, and celebrating, with great acoustics and ambiance. We couldn’t be happier with our choice and highly recommend The Boothbay Playhouse for anyone looking for a beautiful and supportive venue.
