Travel & Lodging

Our wedding will be located around a series of small villages in mid-coast Maine. The drive from New York City to Damariscotta (what we lovingly refer to as "town") is approximately 6 hours. Plane, train, and bus are also great options to get you to Portland, Maine, where you will need to rent a car to drive up the coast on route 1 to the wedding. Note that while Ubers and Lyfts are readily available in Portland, they are scarce in other parts of the state. Lodging accommodations in the immediate area are limited to inns, bed & breakfasts, and vacation rentals/Airbnbs. We have provided many lodging options as September is still tourist season and rooms will book up quick. There are a couple of hotel options on the way into/out of town in the Bath/Brunswick area.

Flight

Portland International Jetport

Direct flights are available into PWM from New York City.

Flight

Boston Logan International Airport

It may be easier to fly into Logan and take the shuttle bus to Portland. The Concord Coach is an incredible bus line (we take it all the time!) that runs frequent shuttles between Boston and Portland. https://concordcoachlines.com/route/portland-me-to-from-boston-logan-airport/ Once in Portland, you will need to take a taxi or uber from the train station to get a rental car.

Train

Amtrak Downeaster

The Downeaster is a great option to get from Boston to Portland. If coming from NYC, you will need to plan on taking a taxi or uber across town to transfer train stations. Once in Portland, you will need to take a taxi or uber from the train station to get a rental car.

Train

Concord Coach

The Concord Coach is a premier New England bus line - it is a very nice bus with wifi, free snacks, and comfortable seats. They have two buses a day running between New York City and Portland. Note: the bus does not run on Tuesdays. Once in Portland, you will need to take a taxi or uber from the train station to get a rental car.
