We don’t often get hired before the venue – after all it’s what you need to secure your wedding date. But there are occasions when we are contracted as the first vendors for a couple (hello, super honored when that happens!!). We do get our fair share of inquiries coming in from couples who haven’t yet narrowed down a date or a venue. They’re keeping their options flexible until they find a date that works best for them, their guests, and as many vendors as possible.
A lot of time when we’re helping out couples who haven’t booked yet, we get to share our input on different venues. One of the things we find our couples are looking for are Maine Wedding Venues with Lodging On Site. That’s a super important amenity when couples are planning their destination Maine wedding. With guests coming from all over the country, and perhaps internationally, it’s perfect to have everyone – or as many guests as you can – staying at the same location. If renting and coordinating shuttles or buses between hotels and your venue aren’t in your budget or in your vision, a venue with places for your guests to stay is your best bet!
We’ve compiled a list below of venues we’ve either worked at or are very familiar with that offer on-site accommodations for your wedding. As always, we will be updating this list as time goes on.
