Hotel

The Dunes on the Waterfront

Located on the Ogunquit tidal river just across from Ogunquit Beach on 12 quiet acres, The Dunes is the MacInnes family home away from home, and where they’ll be for the wedding weekend. It's also where we'll be having our welcome party. In addition to classic New England cottages, the Dunes has a small selection of hotel units. The MacInnes family has been staying here every summer and throughout the season since long before Meg was born — it's an especially great choice for families. Reservations can be made starting January 1st, with a three-night minimum and rates ranging from $160-$250 per night.

Hotel

Anchorage By The Sea

An oceanfront resort with direct access to the famous Marginal Way shore walk, this is where the Fleischer family will be staying! This large resort has an indoor and outdoor pool, and non-ocean view rooms have walk-in showers and an elevator. The Anchorage is also home to one of our favorite restaurants for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with a rooftop bar with spectacular views of the Maine coast. Reservations can be made starting October 9, 2019 with two to three night minimums. Rates range from $235-$345 per night. We recommend calling directly, as they have more availability by phone than online: 207-646-9384.

Hotel

Studio East

This is where the wedding party will be staying! Located right in the center of town, Studio East Motel is a convenient and budget-friendly favorite of Meg and Brandon's, when they're not staying with the family at the Dunes! It’s also a less than 5 minute walk from our after party and brunch venue. Rates range from $139-$179, and we recommend calling directly or contacting them by email at reservations@studioeastmotel.com for more information. Feel free to reference the MacInnes-Fleischer wedding when you call.

Hotel

Aspinquid

Another affordable option, this family-friendly hotel is 500 feet from the beach and close to the center of town. Each room is positioned to have a water view, with a variety of room options available. They accept reservations beginning October 1, 2019, and you can reference the MacInnes/Fleischer wedding as they can group wedding guests in the same building. They require a two-night minimum and rates range from $120-$235 per night. Please ask for Alison when you call, as they manage multiple properties and we recommend the Aspinquid — Alison will know their (different) reservation timeline.

Hotel

Meadowmere Resort

This family-friendly resort offers a variety of accommodations ranging from individual rooms to two bedroom family suites. The hotel has many amenities including an indoor pool, game room, fire pit, and pub, and is a short walk from the center of town. Depending on the room type, rates range from $129-$489, with a three-night minimum. They are accepting reservations now for 2020.

Travel Note

Once You Arrive

Once you arrive in Ogunquit, the majority of our events, as well as plenty of food and entertainment, are all within walking distance! The only event outside of Ogunquit — the wedding itself — will include a complementary shuttle. We encourage you to enjoy the Beautiful Place by the Sea like the locals: leave your worries and your car in the hotel parking lot, and enjoy walking and taking the town trolley through this quaint New England village.

Flight

Portland, Maine / Manchester, NH / Boston, MA

If you're flying, we recommend traveling into Portland, Manchester, or Boston airports. From any of these cities, it's a quick drive to Ogunquit to begin the festivities. For Portland, make sure you select Maine, not Oregon! The code is PWM, and it's about a 45 minute drive to Ogunquit. The Manchester, NH airport (MHT) is just over 1 hour drive to Ogunquit, and the drive from Boston Logan Airport (BOS) is between 1.5 hours to 2 hours, depending on traffic. There are also several bus services that travel between these airports and Ogunquit or nearby towns — let us know if you have any questions.

Travel Note

C & J Bus Line

Meg & Brandon's favorite way to travel from NYC to NH and Maine. This regional bus line offers service from New York Port Authority Bus Terminal to either Portsmouth, NH or direct to Ogunquit, ME, depending on the day. If traveling to Portsmouth, Ogunquit is just a 25 minute cab ride away. If arriving in Ogunquit, you will arrive at the visitor's center just south of the town center. This bus line also offers service between Boston Logan Airport and Portsmouth, NH!

Train

Amtrak

You can grab an Amtrak train directly from Boston North Station to Wells, Maine — right next door to Ogunquit. If you're traveling from south of Boston, you'll likely travel into Boston South Station, then need to transfer to North Station via the T, so be sure to leave enough time in your itinerary. From Wells, Ogunquit is just a 15 minute cab ride. As an added bonus, this Amtrak route is known for beautiful views of the coastline and fall foliage!

Rental Car

Enterprise Rent-A-Car

The nearest rental car service is in York, Maine, right along the route to Ogunquit. Once you get to Ogunquit, everything will be within walking distance or we'll provide transportation, so feel free to drop your rental car and pick up another one on Monday if that best suits your budget.
