Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Experience the rustic elegance of this classic 1830 barn, nestled on 100 acres alongside the Saco River. Idyllic New England views abound, with gracious meadows, verdant forest, and wonderful seasonal gardens setting a charming backdrop for your nuptials.
- Exchange vows beneath a hand-hewn timber arbor on the lawn, framed by mature trees and rolling fields for picture-perfect “I do”s. Receptions unfold inside the historic barn, which boasts an airy feel thanks to its warm wood framing and soaring ceilings. It’s especially lovely draped in gauzy fabrics or glimmering twinkle lights!
- The truly affordable rental fees provide lots of flexibility, and include access to the venue the day before and the morning after for setup & cleanup. Their extensive list of preferred caterers ensures you’ll find a perfect fit, whether you’re envisioning a food truck extravaganza, casual BBQ, or an elegant seated dinner.
