Like I said earlier these Maine wedding venues can vary based on what you are looking for with your style. However, I can say over the past two years these venues have never disappointed when it comes to stunning images.

So the question comes down to what style of barn wedding are you looking for. What types of attributes will make you smile when you look back on your wedding album?

What makes Maine a beautiful place to have a wedding?

It’s mostly its natural scenery. The state is blessed with an abundance of trees, mountains, lakes, and rivers. This provides endless opportunities for couples to have their wedding photos taken in a variety of stunning locations.

Broadturn Farm is a particularly special place because it is both a working farm and a beautiful event venue. The property features gorgeous gardens, a charming farmhouse, and expansive fields with sweeping views of the surrounding countryside.

This couple chose to have their ceremony in the gardens, followed by a reception in a large tent on the property. The whole day was filled with so much love and joy, and it was an honor to capture these memories for the newlyweds!

What more can you ask for for a venue?

First Look

This couple had the perfect plan for their wedding. They knew they wanted a quiet personal moment before walking down the aisle. It was important to Mary Alice to have her husband see her for the first time and it just be the two of them.

First looks melt my heart. People often wonder if it isn’t the same when they walk down the aisle, after speaking to many brides who have done this they ALL say it is a different feeling. They say, “it’s like having the best of both worlds, a private personal moment and then a moment with all your friends and family, it’s just different and amazing.” 

For an even more emotional photo op, consider a first look with Dad!
