My son and daughter-in-law were recently married here with 163 guests. Even on a rainy and chilly May day it was wonderful! It’s a venue that truly works in any weather! So beautiful and well laid out. It was just magical. Everyone had a great time. And as a bonus the owners were so nice and flexible in working with us!

Choosing a venue can be so difficult - there are so many options in Maine and they all have their own unique perks. But when we drove up to Marianmade Farm, all the other venue options were crossed off our list. Marianmade had everything we wanted for our wedding day and more - wildflowers and flower gardens, wooded areas and open fields, an arbor overlooking the river, a firepit with ample seating, a European-style cottage and bridal suite, a beautiful lavender drying barn with an ideal space for cocktail hour, and a massive tent for games, cocktail hour and and other day of activities. Every detail in and around the barn is meticulous. This venue holds so many special memories for us now, and we are so grateful we chose Marianmade Farm as our wedding venue.

WOW! Marianmade Farm is a special place. Our guests are still talking about how gorgeous and unique of a venue it was. Also, it definitely means something that our wedding planner genuinely told us she wished she got married here. The property is so picturesque and private with a beautiful venue out to the river. You feel like you're in your own little world when you're there. The stone cottage added to the charm. It was so incredible to wake up there looking over the place we were going to get married. John was so amenable and helpful during COVID and postponing our wedding a year. He truly made this place perfect for our wedding weekend, it was like a fairy tale.

We hosted the most perfect wedding weekend at Marianmade Farm over Labor Day Weekend. The property is absolutely stunning during the summer/fall months! We were really impressed by how well the grounds had been maintained. It’s such a stunning place to get married.

We held both our rehearsal dinner and wedding on-site. The property lends itself well to creating two very different feels/experiences for both evenings. We hosted our rehearsal dinner outside under the clear top tent, and our wedding reception was inside the "barn" the following night. I say barn in quotes because it really doesn't feel like a barn at all. The light, bright and airy atmosphere of the barn really gives it an upscale elegance feel without being too formal.

The stone cottage that comes with the property rental is the perfect place for a bridal party to get ready the morning of the wedding. It also makes for great additional accommodations for out-of-town guests.

I’d be remiss to not give a huge shout out to Ed, the property manager. He was on-site all weekend ensuring we had everything we needed. He made a last-minute fix to a broken toilet paper holder in the cottage bathroom, and quickly responded to our call of a blown fuse the morning of the wedding. He was the real MVP of the weekend!

This venue checks so many boxes if you want a coastal, whimsical, fairy-tale of a wedding 😊. Our only regret is not being able to do it all over again!

Let me start by saying that all of the negative reviews that are on here are outdated and based on prior ownership.

We had the privilege of having our wedding at Marianmade Farm in late August of 2019, and I cannot say enough great things about this venue. The owner John is clear with his communications and understanding with any and all situations. Wendy, the wedding planner associated with the venue, is a godsend. Her, along with her wonderful daughter, do everything in their power to make your weekend perfect...down to the finest of details. Again, I don't how we could put our appreciation for everyone associated with Marianmade into words. They made our weekend perfect.

We held both our rehearsal dinner and wedding ceremony/reception on the property, and everything went off without a hitch. Along with the property, you are provided a wonderful cottage to stay in that provides privacy and makes the weekend that much more special for the newlyweds.

If you want an ideal, midcoast Maine wedding, I honestly don't know where else you would have it (trust me, I was dragged to every venue in a 100 mile radius...I know).

John, Wendy - if you read these, thank you again, for everything. We wish you nothing but continued success in the future. We hope to be back up to Marianmade soon!

We had an absolutely incredible wedding at Marianmade Farm. We looked at many venues in Midcoast Maine and this was by far the most stunning. It's a working flower farm on the water with a lovely barn. The cottage on the property is adorable-- they were incredibly flexible and my in laws stayed there for a week! We held the rehearsal dinner outside the barn the night before our wedding as well which was also really special.

First, off, this is a beautiful property.

The stone cottage makes the weekend extra-special and there's so many ways to use the space that you can have a rehearsal dinner AND a wedding out here and build two very different evenings. John, the proprietor, was on site for the wedding and helped out a ton. He also was very quick to reply to emails and calls leading up. We weren't high-maintenance but we did have lots of questions and he helped it all go off wonderfully. The grounds were maintained and some new additions (bigger shaded patio) really helped make the space work on a hot day.


Also, we had an act-of-god power/weather issue the first night that the property resolved with a generator and then fixed before the wedding, promptly. I can't say enough.

For the day of, the barn is the bomb. You can decorate minimally and still have an A+ wedding because the property is stunning and does so much work for you. The catering coordinated smoothly — use Red Plate (the Damariscotta River Grill) and you won't be let down.

The fire pit and open space makes for a good three days. I couldn't recommend this property enough. John even kept in touch, returned our deposit promptly, the whole shebang. Get married here!

Our daughter's wedding was held at Marianmade last Saturday, June 17. We rented the entire place and it was just perfection. It's comfortable, beautiful, and every detail is thought of. The bridal suite behind the barn is a great idea, and comfortable for changing and helping the bride. The little fairytale cottage and the flower house were also comfortable, spacious, and exactly what we needed, and the barn was gorgeous.

Everyone was nice, friendly and accommodating. They made planning a wedding from a distance super easy. Their recommended list of vendors was superb. Trillium Catering was five star too.

Thank you all for making our big weekend perfect.

We got married at Marianmade Farm and could not imagine a more perfect venue. It is in the most gorgeous spot in Wiscasset and the barn is incredible. I hate to even call it a barn because it is so chic. The contract is from Thursday - Sunday so I was able to drop decor off early, have the rehearsal dinner, wedding, and brunch all at the same place. There are also lovely bathrooms on site and it included transportation to the local hotels. Tables and beautiful lighting are also included. Michelle and MacKenzie make you feel like family! I adore them both! Michelle also did my flowers and I was blown away! Flowers were one detail that I just wasn't that excited about or interested in. Michelle did such an amazing job that looking back they were one of my favorite things about the wedding. What an incredible experience! I wish I could do it again!

Marianmade was the first wedding venue we visited. When we arrived in the driveway we immediately knew that this farm was going to be where we'd celebrate our special day. The best way to describe this beautiful place is magical! The entire property is meticulously maintained and the Michelle's flowers are beyond gorgeous! We feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to have celebrated our wedding weekend at this amazing gem! From the lavender drying house to the waterfront view, every detail of this venue has been thoughtfully curated in a charming and artful manner.

Michelle and MacKenzie were fantastic to work with! They were extremely responsive and helpful throughout our planning process. We held both our rehearsal dinner and reception at Marianmade. With the help of Michelle and MacKenzie, these events felt distinctly different but still managed to celebrate our love of Maine (and each other!)

Michelle also designed our flowers. Michelle worked within our budget while providing wedding floral arrangements that managed to absolutely exceed our expectations. She even went the extra mile to assure that I was able to have big, beautiful, pink peonies in my bouquet long after peony season. Michelle also created floral wreaths that we used as decoration for both our church ceremony and our reception at Marianmade. We were able to give the wreaths as gifts to our mothers following the event-they were so pleased with them! The farm was also at peak lavender season for our wedding. We were fortunate to have a beautiful lavender backdrop for many of our photos and lavender bouquets included in our flower arrangements.

Marianmade has become a place that is so very special to us! We highly recommend this breathtaking venue and Michelle's flowers!
