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!

Amazing wedding Location

We could not be happier with our experience at Granite Ridge. This is a one of a kind location, beautiful grounds, an amazing barn and breathtaking views of the mountains. Our guest were totally floored by the venue and we were so excited to be there. Plus having the whole site and estate house to ourselves from Thursday to Sunday afternoon really made this feel like a mini vacation with our wedding! Gabe and Micky were great to work with and very attentive!

An incredible Venue

My Husband and I were married at Granite Ridge in September, 2019. The venue is absolutely breathtaking. We booked the venue before we even saw it in person...and I'm so happy we took that leap of faith! We worked with Gabe in the planning stages and he was so responsive and put me at ease throughout the process. Micki was on site during the wedding weekend and was also extremely helpful...so much so that on my wedding day she jumped in to lend me a hand by carrying the train of my dress as I walked down the hill to meet my husband for our "first look." I could go on and on about all the incredible aspects of the wedding venue and the staff. The views from the barn are so uniquely beautiful, and we absolutely loved having the estate house for the weekend - it is such a spacious and beautiful place for friends and family to gather. We held our rehearsal dinner on site to maximize our time in the beautiful setting. I would absolutely recommend Granite Ridge to anyone searching for a magical slice of beauty in the Maine woods!

The Perfect Wedding Venue

Granite Ridge is astonishingly beautiful!! We just got married there a few months ago and our guests continue to tell us how amazing the venue is! The mountain views are incredible and make for the most beautiful photos. The barn is spectacular with that magnificent wall of windows overlooking the mountains. I cannot imagine a more perfect place to get married! Having the venue from Thursday through Sunday made our wedding not just a few hours but a whole weekend of joy and celebration. It allowed us to set up ahead of time and truly just enjoy the day of the wedding without worrying about any of the small details. This is definitely the right way to have a wedding! Not only is the venue gorgeous and the weekend experience relaxing, but the Fratianne/DiSaverio family really makes this venue that much more magical! Micki and Gabe were so welcoming, helpful, and always there for whatever we needed. They have such a kind family that truly cares to make your wedding as special as it should be! We cannot recommend Granite Ridge highly enough! If the breathtaking views aren't enough to convince you to book Granite Ridge right away, then the wedding weekend experience and amazing family hosts certainly will help to win you over!

Just perfect

We got married at Granite Ridge on November 02, 2019 and we could not be happier with our selection of this venue! The communication leading up to the event with Gabe was excellent. It was helpful yet not overwhelming which was much appreciated. Granite Ridge is a "do it yourself vendor venue" meaning you will have a good amount of work ahead of you booking and communicating with all of your vendors (unless of course you hire a wedding planner). That said, Granite Ridge does offer lots of support with questions and a curated listed of vendors. We used some of their recommended vendors but also found a lot of our own which is the route I would recommend as some of our favorite vendors we found separately. As a disclaimer there though I am fairly local to the area so this route my not work for you if you are planning from out of town.
The weekend of our wedding there was some staff available as needed but we were mostly left to do as we'd like which was the perfect balance. The house on the property and the full Thursday-Sunday exclusive access were a big selling point for us in selecting this venue as it allowed us to also host our Friday night dinner at the venue. I can't give enough praise to this venue and its owners, absolutely fantastic!

Stunning Venue

Words can’t describe how amazing Granite Ridge and the whole team is to work with. Stephanie and I were married on 10-5-2019; we were the 100th wedding.

We live in RI, but love Maine so much and knew we needed to be married someplace that fit us. I started searching locations that were either very rustic, working farms, fun barns with personality to unique locations. This is when I can across Granite Ridge.

The day we first went to look at the venue, we arrived in Norway a bit early and decided to take a walk around. Miki soon arrived and took us up to her property. From the moment we met her she had a personality that made us feel comfortable. She brought us to the barn first and before we could even get out of her car, Steph was determined this was the place for us to be married. Walking into the barn, the view of the mountains just takes you over. It is a very simple barn, but the chandeliers make it feel so special. We took a walk down to the ceremony space and knew this was where we wanted to say I DO. We loved the intimate feel of the space encapsulated by the woods.

Miki took us to the estate house, and wow is all I have to say. During our weekend stay we utilized all that the house had to offer. From the hot tub to the amazing wood grill they have. We sat in front of the fireplace from morning to night laughing, having a great time. Waking up to my wife the morning after our wedding with views of the clouds still below the mountains with speckles of red, yellow and orange trees was something I will never forget.

The whole time working with Gabe was amazing; I cannot speak more highly of him. He listened and answered any questions we had quickly. It was great getting to learn about his hot sauce company, The Spicy Shark. The Reaper one will make anyone happy who loves spicy things.

From the views to the hospitality, Granite Ridge is a one of a kind venue that any couple will fall in love with.

Incredible Experience

Our experience with Granite Ridge was amazing. As soon as we visited two years ago, we knew it was the venue for us. The views are spectacular, and absolutely breathtaking out the large windows in the barn. On top of that, Micki, Gabe, and Jill instantly make you feel like family. They are so warm and welcoming, and they’re there for anything you may need throughout the planning process. The barn itself is stunning and has bathrooms, heat, and AC which are nearly impossible to find in a rustic venue. Our favorite part about GR was having the property to ourselves Thursday - Sunday. It felt like a getaway instead of just a one day event. Getting up there earlier in the week and relaxing before the big day, then having all day Sunday to enjoy and decompress was amazing. Every other venue we looked at could have a wedding the same MORNING of our wedding day. Here, it’s all yours for four whole days. Worth every penny - I cannot imagine getting married any other way. We hope to visit once a year because it was such a great experience.
