We met in 2016 at Bowdoin College, in Blake's hometown of Brunswick. Over a decade later, we can't wait to officially tie the knot in Wiscasset just 30 minutes away. Mid-coast Maine holds a special place in our hearts and we cannot wait to celebrate there with you in June 2027.
While our wedding venue is in Wiscasset, we highly recommend guests stay in Boothbay Harbor - a beautiful seaside town just 20 minutes from the venue and the hub of our weekend's events and transportation.
We suggest renting a car so you have the flexibility to explore the region. However, we will be providing transportation to/from wedding events on Saturday so a car is definitely not required. Friday night events are walkable from recommended hotels in downtown Boothbay Harbor.

Approximate driving times to Boothbay Harbor:
See the Explore section for our favorite stops in Maine to break up the drive.
Note: US Route 1 can get congested in the summer, especially on the weekends, so plan accordingly.
We recommend guests stay in downtown Boothbay Harbor. Many of these inns will open for summer 2027 booking later this fall. We will be offering transportation from both sides of the harbor.
Yes, there is parking at the venue. We will also be providing transportation via buses between downtown Boothbay Harbor and Marianmade Farm.
The wedding ceremony and reception dress code is Summer Formal — suit jackets with ties and mid-length to long dresses are encouraged. Please note that most wedding events will be on grass and it can get chilly at night (~55-60 degrees).
We love your kids, but are keeping the wedding ceremony and reception adults only. We are looking into local babysitting options for those interested. Children are welcome at the Friday Welcome Party. Thank you for your understanding!
Downtown Boothbay Harbor will be the "hub" of our weekend events and transportation. Ubers are not plentiful in this part of Maine, so we recommend staying within walking distance of downtown Boothbay Harbor if you don't want to worry about driving to/from any events.
Feel free to reach out to us directly — we're happy to help.
We'll post our registry details here in the coming months — thanks!
RSVPs will open once formal invitations are sent in Spring 2027. We can't wait to celebrate with you — more details coming soon!
If you already know you won't be able to make it, we'd be grateful to hear from you early — it helps us enormously with planning.
Whether you arrive early or make a whole weekend of it, here are some of our favorite spots around and on the way to Boothbay Harbor.
Known as "the prettiest village in Maine" and home to our wedding venue.
You'll drive through Freeport, Brunswick, and Bath on your way to Boothbay Harbor. Below are some recs if you want to stop and break up the drive.
Where we met each other and so many of our best friends joining the weekend's celebrations! A gorgeous campus worth a stroll. If you have time, Bowdoin's Art and Arctic museums on campus are great and free.
For food, delicious and easy options include Wild Oats, Big Top Deli, Dutchman's Bagels, and Brunswick Diner. For shopping, there are many stores along Maine St including our favorite, Lemont Block Collective, for art and gifts handmade by local Maine artists.
The original L.L. Bean flagship store is open 24/7, and is surrounded by dozens of major outlets and local shops. Lily's Food Cart sells the best mini dumplings in a cup. The Bakeshop serves amazing sandwiches, homemade fries, and baked goods.
Bath is a charming historic town known for its maritime history. Some of our favorite restaurants include Mae's Cafe & Bakery for brunch, The Cabin for pizza, and Sister's Gourmet Deli for sandwiches.
Slightly out of the way to Boothbay Harbor... Harpswell, Bailey Island, and Orr's Island have amazing coastal views and walking trails.
We'd recommend going to Bowdoin Coastal Studies Center, Harpswell's Mitchell Field, or the Giant Steps if you want to get out of the car, walk around, and soak in the Maine coast. Cook's Lobster & Ale House on Bailey Island and Dolphin Marina Restaurant in Harpswell are amazing dining options on the water.
Whether you're flying into Portland or driving through it, it's an incredible food hub and worth exploring on foot — especially the Old Port. Here are a few of our favorites...
