So friendly, so beautiful, so flexible

Originally when I saw the inn I wasn’t sold, it’s slightly dated (but charming) and would be a bit far for friends and family (we live in Boston and family all over) but their responsiveness and flexibility sold us. They were so nice and so accommodating the entire way. We loved that people could stay on site ( but no minimum night stay requirement) or could stay at b&b or Airbnb in town. The activities like the pool and golf were great too. Everything, including the weather was perfect. We did a tented wedding which I loved, I didn’t like that cocktail hour was near the parking lot, but in the end it really didn’t matter. The food was excellent, they let us really chose anything we wanted and made it happen. They made the signature cocktails just like we requested and they were so delicious. Everyone on site was so incredibly friendly from bar tenders to servers. Jonathan was an awesome day of coordinator and really made sure it was smooth and easy, the staff did all the setting up and it looked beautiful. All our guests loved the bethel inn too! During our process the inn did get bought by a larger company but we never noticed any change in our planning and process. I’m not sure if they are going to continue to have weddings under new management but if they do- I say do it! Loved it so much!
We took photos at their boat house and they were so kind to prepare a canoe and clean it, our photographers were impressed!

Magical Wedding

We got married this October at the Bethel Inn and had an absolutely magical wedding, that frankly exceeded my expectations! We had to reschedule our wedding from 2020 due to the pandemic, and Brad and co. were great in guiding us through the process, and promptly and kindly answering our many, many questions throughput a 2 year planning period. The Inn itself is charming and quaint and I felt like I was on a movie set the whole weekend. The backdrop for the ceremony is beyond beautiful and the staff were truly wonderful, warm and had a keen eye for detail that truly made everything better. The food was delicious (I still want more of those meatballs) and everything was perfect. We can’t wait to back for our anniversary. Book your wedding here. You won’t regret it.

The Bethel Inn is one of my absolute favorite venues! Not only is it right down the road from where I live but the wedding coordination, service, and beautiful venue are second to none. It really helps me get great photos (I am a wedding photographer) when the venue has their wedding services dialed in. The Bethel Inn certainly does! They provide delicious food and drink as well. Bethel, Maine is a gorgeous place to be married and the Bethel Inn is the perfect spot.

I was lucky enough to photograph an elopement at The Bethel Inn Resort, and the couple chose to use the lake house on Songo Pond on a rainy day. It was BEAUTIFUL! I can't overstate the beauty of the environment in Bethel, and at the Inn. It is a wonderful place to bring your family and guests for a wedding.
