Hyla Brook Estate was the perfect venue for our wedding. The space was absolutely beautiful, with stunning natural scenery that provided a gorgeous backdrop for our ceremony and reception. The staff thought of every little detail to make our day run smoothly, and our day-of coordinator, Ashley, was simply the best. Ashley was incredibly helpful, responsive, and made sure the whole process went off without a hitch. We honestly don't know how we would have gotten through it all without her guidance and support. We will genuinely miss talking to Ashley so often now that the wedding is over. Hyla Brook Estate and their incredible team made our wedding day truly unforgettable.

My wife and I were worried about finding a space and a team to really help us bring our vision to light. We are a non-traditional couple with a very non-traditional theme, and the second we walked through the doors of Grace Ventures and met Stacey, we knew we found our venue. After sifting through a daunting list of potential venues, Grace and the team working there easily stood out. Over the next year, we kept in contact with Stacey and team to ensure our timeline was good, neither of us ever really having thought about or planned for a wedding had us feeling a bit over our heads at first. Stacey and team made the entire planning and executing process so incredibly easy that we were sometimes worried we were missing a step, only to be encouraged and reminded that we were on-schedule and ready to go. Stacey even steered us in the direction of incredible support staff, like Kyle at Moe's Subs and DJ Dennis after we hit a few snags with music and food on our end. We finally reached our day, and it couldn't have been more perfect. From the support setting up, to final adjustments and clarifications, to the bar and dinner service, it all went off without a hitch, and we couldn't possibly be more grateful. No matter which wedding package you decide on, just know that Stacey and team will take care of you and the details that will allow you to focus on your special day.

We cannot say enough wonderful things about The Everlee but we will try! From the moment we first toured this stunning new venue, we knew it was the perfect place for our wedding. The barn and pavilion are absolutely breathtaking, with every detail thoughtfully designed, and the outdoor ceremony space gave us the most magical backdrop for our day. One of the things that mattered most to us was having a truly private setting, and The Everlee delivered that perfectly. After touring several venues that felt like we would be on display, it was such a gift to find a place that felt peaceful, secluded, and completely ours for the day - it felt like home as cliché as it sounds. What truly made our experience unforgettable, though, was Andee. She went above and beyond for us every step of the way. Her planning and organizational skills are unmatched—she thought of every little detail before we even knew to ask. Even our families, bridal party, and guests had nothing but amazing things to say about Andee. Beyond her professionalism, Andee is genuinely kind, supportive, and calming, which made the entire planning process so smooth and enjoyable. On our wedding day, we were able to be fully present because we knew we were in the best hands. We wholeheartedly recommend The Everlee to anyone looking for a venue that combines beauty, privacy, functionality, and heart. And if you have the chance to work with Andee, consider yourself incredibly lucky—she is truly a dream coordinator and beautiful person inside and out!

We are so happy we chose The 1812 Farm for our special day and would heartily and readily suggest it to anyone looking for a venue. I literally cannot sing their praises enough for how perfect they helped make our day. The 1812 Farm was the perfect venue for our July 2024 Wedding and we could not be happier with the experience we had working with Sarah, Olivia, and the larger team. The 1812's team is not only super responsive, but extremely helpful as a sounding board. Any questions we had were answered promptly, any ideas we wanted to float were approached thoughtfully, and this team truly lessened any kind of wedding planning stress. As for the venue itself, it was gorgeous. The flowers were in bloom in the garden where we had our ceremony and the inner venue where we had our reception was so well put together. The 1812 team set all my decorations up for me after I provided an example of what I was going for and that immediately lessened any day-of stress that morning. Both my husband's half of the party and my own had plenty of space to get ready separately in the Bristol Suite on site too, which was perfect. Having prep in the same place as ceremony and reception just streamlined our entire day. I also love that even when the lights were dimmed inside later in the night for dancing, there was still plenty of light to see and talk by and our guests adored the outdoor bar and thought it was super cute. The 1812 also uses Stone Cove Catering and we loved the ease of building out the menu with the same people we already were in contact with for the venue. It made everything so smooth and we knew there would be no confusion or fuss as meals were served because the caterers are the venue and know the routine and space. Once the party actually started after dinner, I had multiple guests come up to me to rave about how good dinner and cocktail hour apps were- literally so good that multiple people made comments about it right after eating. Can't ask for better than that. And my husband and I were beyond happy with our own meal and the post-ceremony oyster treat that Stone Cove Catering helped us plan for ourselves. If I were planning this wedding all over, I'd still pick the 1812!

The Greenhouse at Highland Farm

Scarborough, ME
  • Up to 150 guests

  • Starts at $9,500

Maine's only greenhouse event venue exclusively designed for wedding receptions and ceremonies. 2021 marks 72 years of Highland Farm’s history in Scarborough, Maine. From the beginning, the property has been operating as a greenhouse. In fact, in the 1800’s, Highland Farm was the largest supplier of cut flowers in the Northeast. Highland Farm is a family owned and operated business, and the undeniable sense of family and welcome energy is palpable the moment you step on the grounds. The saying is true here: “you come as strangers and leave as family.” The Greenhouse and The Farm has been run by 3rd generation owners, Joe and Christine since 2008, but Joe and Christine’s involvement in the farm runs far deeper than ownership. In 2009, the couple was married in one of the working greenhouses

I had a wonderful wedding thanks to Patrick and his family. It unfortunately rained but we were able to move things around to accommodate, Patrick and his family were very helpful with setting things up. I recommend hiring a good tent company the one I used I wasn’t happy with. The bridal suite and barn was a great touch that helped a lot with the rain and getting ready. I highly recommend this venue if you are looking for a simple, rustic, organic, all natural wedding.

Awarded Best of Zola
We had our first experience with Wandby Landing last weekend and our impression was such we felt a review was warranted. Having played over 600 weddings as a band over the last couple decades, every once in a while you get to work with a vendor who just gets it. They understand the importance of the entire day, from morning preparations to the late night after-party. It's almost impossible to maintain a timeline to the minute, but this was about as close as we've seen. Communication with the staff helped ensure guests were in their seats ready for the First Dance and toasts right on schedule, and from an entertainers perspective, this is EXACTLY what we want to see! This ensures that not only do guests get to enjoy one of the best wedding meals they'll ever experience, but they'll do so at a comfortable pace that leaves time for both an incredible meal AND a night full of dancing, and not just one or the other. We can't wait to be back!

Surrounded by gardens, fields, and the original orchard, the property offers a peaceful backdrop for ceremonies, photographs, and unforgettable gatherings.

The 1830 Wedding Barn is an absolute MUST for a wedding venue. I have nothing but incredible things to say. The location is beautiful and private, the barn has enough room to fit everything we needed (we had around 100 guests), there are beautiful spots to take photos, and they offer florals as part of a package, which saved so much time (and they were beautiful). Not to mention, the owners are some of the nicest people you’ll ever meet. Not only did they provide a beautiful place, but their willingness to help out allowed my husband and I to enjoy the day. They decorated for us, organized stuff with the vendors, helped with cleaning up, etc. I would choose this venue over and over again, and suggest it to anyone looking to get married!

They were extremely helpful in walking us through all the details and ensuring everything was taken care of. The grounds and farmhouse/barn provided a beautiful, clean slate for us to transform into our dream wedding. The rehearsal dinner skating on their private rink could not have been more perfect - everything was communicated ahead of time and Mike was onsite to assist us if needed. I truly do not have enough good things to say about Flanagan Farm. The grounds are stunning, the barn is fit to transform however you choose, and the farmhouse was the perfect place for our wedding party to stay. We are so grateful to the team at Flanagan Farm for helping make our special day so magical.
