The Atlantic Oceanside Hotel is highly recommended as a wedding venue. Reviewers praised the helpfulness of Mallory and her team, and many guests mentioned how beautiful the setting was. The staff was accommodating to dietary restrictions, the food was delicious, and portions were generous. However, some minor details were missed and there were issues with water in hotel rooms. Overall, guests had a wonderful time and would recommend the venue.

Our dream wedding!!
My husband and I had our destination wedding here in July of 2023. It was absolutely perfect and beyond what we could have ever imagined! In the beginning stages of looking for venues, we were impressed with how quickly we had received a response from the team. In no time at all, we had our tour booked to see the venue. Upon arrival, we immediately fell in love with the gorgeous oceanfront views, the hotel rooms, & the Victorian-style mansion. Everything was onsite, and we loved that all of our guests could be together for the entire weekend. Our favorite part of the property was the mansion, that ended up renting out for our wedding party, and also meant that we could host more of our events there (rehearsal dinner, welcome party, and Sunday brunch). It was a blast! Mallory was amazing to work with. She was prompt and professional throughout all of our email chains, phone calls, and interactions leading up to the event. It was very obvious that she was dedicated to providing Andrew and I a seamless weekend, and the wedding of our dreams. Our wedding weekend was absolutely magical thanks to her, Lew, and the rest of the AO team. They treated us like part of their family, were so warm and welcoming, and fun to work with! We highly recommend this venue!

Wedding Fall 2023
I chose to do my wedding within a 3month period. My husband and I knew our dream wedding would be on the ocean. I grew up visiting Bar Harbor on my summer vacations. I found Atlantic Oceanside relatively quickly and saw via wedding wire that they are reasonably priced. I reached out to Mallory, the event coordinator in early August, let her know my dreams for my wedding day. She promptly got back to me with available dates and pricing. We were able to pull together a 120 person wedding on a Thursday in early October. She was super helpful and organized going into my wedding day and completely made my wedding day stress free. She is very kind, receptive, and helpful with making your day the best it can be. I would highly suggest having your wedding at Atlantic Oceanside if you’d like an oceanfront wedding for a great deal!
