Autumn Lane Estate

Our wedding at Autumn Lane Estates was everything we could've imagined and more. The onsite lodging, the hospitality of the staff and vendors, and the proximity of how close everything was at the venue made for a timeless and memorable Wedding Weekend. We received many compliments from family and friends on how this was the best venue/wedding they've ever been to. It was intimate and everyone loved the uniqueness of the barn, cabins and houses.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Dan, Mackenzie, and the entire Autumn Lane staff! They made our wedding weekend run so smoothly and were always there if we need anything throughout the weekend. Autumn Lane Estate was truly the venue of our dreams. With the lake front access, the new addition of cabins and the Nest on property in the resort space, there isn’t anything this venue is missing. We spent an amazing long weekend celebrating with our friends and family and truly could not have asked for a more perfect weekend. The “weekend wedding” made it possible to really spend time with all of our guests and made it so that on our wedding day we didn’t feel rushed trying to make sure we saw every person. Everyone who attended raved about how fantastic the wedding and venue was! We wish we could do it all again!

Autumn Lane was everything my husband and I dreamed of for our perfect wedding venue. A friend had shared their instagram with me when I mentioned we wanted a full weekend wedding and we immediately got in touch with Mackenzie and Dan to set up an information call and a visit to the property. It was like talking with lifelong friends - they are the most kind humans ever! When we arrived to the property for our tour, we couldn't believe that it was actually possible to be more spectacular in person than it already looked in images. They have truly created a masterpiece for a wedding venue. Everything detail was so thoughtfully planned out from the couples cottage where the girls got ready, the amenities in the estate house where our parents stayed and the guys got ready, to the reception trio of the barn, patio and yard (complete with a waterfall that has changing colored lights!). Just when we thought it couldn't get any better, they told us that they were adding the cabin space up on the hill and showed us a picture of the blueprint. We trusted them and by the time our wedding came, this space turned out to be the highlight of our wedding. Our guests LOVED their cabins which made them feel like they were glamping on Sebago Lake. The naturally filtering pool with waterfalls and tadpoles was a favorite spot for many to hang out - we even had our rehearsal dinner up on the deck by the pool which gave everyone a perfect view of the property below where we would be celebrating our big day. In addition, our guests still talk about how much they loved having access to the lake with a nice sandy beach and views that went on forever!

It was evident that Mackenzie and Dan loved designing and adding each detail to the property. When we were booking, we were processing the expense of renting a full property for multiple days, but it ended up being worth every penny. Dan and Mackenzie made it clear we were working with humans and that they would be available every step of the way to help us navigate the wedding process from recommending other vendors (video, coordinator, etc), to working behind the scenes all weekend long.

Throughout our big weekend, Mackenzie, Dan and the entire staff at ALE (shoutout to Sarah & Matt!) were absolute rockstars and made us feel like we were the most important wedding to ever set foot on the property (keep in mind this property was built for their own wedding!). The entirety of the process from date of booking to the moment we packed up and said our goodbyes at the end of our wedding, it felt like we were working with friends. They were so accommodating and made us feel so at ease. They entertained all of our crazy ideas including letting me jump off the dock in my wedding dress! The whole weekend felt like a vacation away with a sprinkle of wedding for all of our guests. Dan & Mackenzie are the ultimate wedding venue dream team and I will HIGHLY recommend ALE to everyone searching for the perfect place to say "I do"!!!
