Stunning Venue

We booked Granite Ridge for our September 2024 wedding and we could not be happier with our decision! From the very first time we saw the venue we knew nothing would compare and we were right. Gabe and Micki were communicative and accommodating leading up to the big day and allowed us to tour multiple times as we were making final decisions. Gabe was very quick to respond to emails which made the planning process much easier. When the wedding weekend was finally here everything was amazing! The Lodge and Cliff Cabin were exactly what we needed to accommodate family and have a space of our own as a couple. The barn was clean and stunning! Throughout the entire evening and the following days our guests could not stop talking about the amazing views and how it was the most beautiful wedding venue they had ever been to! We could not have asked for a more perfect wedding weekend and highly recommend Granite Ridge to anyone looking for an incredible venue showing off the amazing views Maine has to offer!

Mountain Magic!

We could not have dreamed of a more beautiful place to get married! The barn is gorgeous, the lights and chandeliers magical, and those mountain views are simply breathtaking (even in the pouring rain). Our guests are still raving about how spectacular the venue was, and we are beyond grateful to have found such a beautiful place that also allowed our families to spend the weekend together. Gabe, Micki, and the entire Granite Ridge team were so wonderful to work with throughout the entire wedding process. They were kind and courteous, quick to answer all of our questions and concerns, accommodated multiple site visits, and we could tell that they cared about our big day just as much as we did. We would recommend Granite Ridge in a heartbeat and are forever grateful that we were able to say “I do” in such a magical mountain setting.

Dream wedding at Granite Ridge!

We had the wedding of our dreams at Granite Ridge! From the moment we discovered GRE, we were captivated by the scenic beauty and breathtaking surroundings that the property offers. The picturesque landscapes, nestled in the heart of nature, create an enchanting backdrop for any wedding celebration.

The entire GRE team is a delight to work with! Truly some of the most thoughtful hosts and they run a well-oiled machine. Each and every request was amply accommodated and we felt free to be as creative as we wanted to have every single detail exactly to our dream. We so appreciate how they embraced and supported us to create a stunning and unique wedding!

The memories we created at GRE will forever hold a special place in our hearts. Our guests were equally in awe of the venue and the unforgettable experience it provided.

We are eternally grateful to have celebrated our wedding here and cannot recommend it highly enough!
