Memorial Day Weekend always feels like the unofficial kickoff to summer in Maine ☀️
The docks start filling up again. The coastline comes alive. Restaurants reopen their patios, flowers begin blooming along the coast, and suddenly everyone is craving salt air, lobster rolls, and weekends spent by the water.
There is something especially magical about this time of year in Maine. The days feel longer, the sunsets feel softer, and wedding season starts to return in full swing. From coastal celebrations to mountaintop views and intimate backyard gatherings, this is the season where Maine truly shines.
Whether you are welcoming guests for a wedding weekend, exploring venues, or simply soaking in the beauty of the season, there is no place quite like Maine in the summertime 🤍
Happy Memorial Day Weekend from Real Maine Weddings.

Hot take: some of Maine’s most beautiful wedding locations aren’t on the coast at all.
The Maine Highlands region is where you’ll find mountain views, quiet lakes, cozy lodges, and the kind of scenery that makes people stop mid-conversation to look around.
Think campfires after the reception, mist over the lake in the morning, and full wedding weekends that feel more like an experience than a single day.
If your version of a Maine wedding feels more adventurous than traditional, the Highlands Region might be exactly what you’ve been looking for.
Explore the Maine Highlands on Real Maine Weddings for venues, real weddings, and more inspiration.

From the Editor
As I write this at the beginning of winter, I reflect on the incredible 2023 wedding season. I am filled with the memories of events I attended, clients I worked with, and wedding professionals I collaborated with. It has been a great season here in Maine!
Real Maine Weddings hosted the 4th annual Maine Weddings EDU conference in October. We had record attendance and a fantastic lineup of speakers that included Chef Nettie Frank, Kunbi Odubogun, Jaclyn Watson, Terrica, and Marc McIntosh, as well as local pros, including Michelle Fratianne, Rob Labelle, The Wellness Connection, the State of Maine Liquor Bureau, and Jerry Bazata. Aisle Planner, Caron & Co, Life in Focus, M.A.N.E. Catering, and Total Party Planner provided invaluable sponsorships. It was great to spend two days with other wedding professionals, learning and discovering new ways to enhance local wedding businesses and make the experience even better.
Our team hopes that you enjoy the new Real Maine Weddings website. It is always exciting to see the scope and breadth of the weddings in Maine each season. The talent that goes into producing them and the smiling faces of couples, families, and guests are a heartwarming reminder of all that’s good in the world. We can’t wait to see what comes next!
Sincerely,
Reuben
