This hidden gem on Maine's south coast gives you space to celebrate and room to roam. The timeless natural beauty of the Wells Reserve and rich history of Laudholm make this a venue you and your guests will always remember. Hundreds of acres of protected land surround hilltop buildings full of character. It's a perfect backdrop for stunning photography. Imagine your ceremony in the spectacular barn, on a hillside overlooking the ocean, or beneath the spreading branches of our centerpiece copper beech tree.

You'll have the flexibility to choose your own vendors for your Wells Reserve wedding. (We can recommend some excellent local services.) Most contracts cover the whole weekend, Friday to Sunday, so you can make the most of your time together with family and friends.

You're also doing good when you say "I do" at the Wells Reserve: Your fee goes to support this not-for-profit center for education, research, and stewardship of coastal areas.

May through October are the best months for a wedding at the Wells Reserve. When you book with us, you reserve our historic barn, updated auditorium, and adjacent kitchen for your activities. The grounds are also open for open-air or tented entertainment. As a protected public site, we so apply some sensible restrictions to hosted events.

Over the years, many thousands of people have visited this former saltwater farm that, thanks to outstanding community support, was protected from development. Many find the tranquil setting to be irresistible and return again and again. Come on up and see why.
