Our wedding weekend at The Old Saco Inn was absolutely perfect!

Bruce and Kathy were so accommodating throughout our entire weekend from the time we arrived to the time we checked out. The entire staff on property was so accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed all weekend and making sure the groom had a Coors light in hand at all times. Our wedding day went off without any issues and was exactly how I have always pictured my dream wedding. Kathy handled everything and took the stress off of us from the time we arrived to the time we left. She even worked with us to accommodate our outdoor ceremony in the middle of February. We can't thank The Old Saco Inn enough for all of their help and hospitality to all of our guests. We received countless feedback from our guests that it was one of the best weddings they have ever attended. Thank you to all the staff, Bruce and Kathy for making our wedding day a day we will never forget!

Book this Venue!

Everything about our wedding exceeded any expectations we had all thanks to the Old Saco Inn, Kathy, and all of the staff. For starters, the grounds and barn are stunning. The Inn and Carriage house are both cozy, spacious, and so fun for the whole bridal party to stay at all weekend. We loved that our dog was able to join us in our celebrations, and she loved it too! Rehearsal dinner at the Inn was perfect and delicious, followed by a welcome party in the Inn/Pub. All the staff were so friendly, patient, and accommodating, not to mention so hard working and genuinely seem happy to be there. Tyler was such a rock star all weekend, helping with anything and everything you could imagine. We worked the bar hard with our 200 guests, but everyone raved about the drinks and the service. We truly felt so relaxed and taken care of from the second we arrived. Our guests provided many compliments, and most importantly everyone had such a good time. Kathy has amazing vendor recommendations, many of which we used, and is full of very useful knowledge on wedding planning. If you're looking to have a wedding that is classy, yet so fun and relaxed, this is your place. We could not feel more grateful to have found The Old Saco Inn. It truly will live in our hearts forever.

Beautiful Venue, Great Value

Our daughter was married at The Old Saco Inn in December of 2024. The venue was spectacular, with beautiful spaces inside and out, it felt intimate for our group of 100, but also spacious enough to accommodate a much larger event. Old Saco Inn offered great value as well. We appreciated the full-service offerings: rehearsal dinner and afterparty space, breakfasts and lunches for wedding party, onsite accommodations, linen color options, and venue decorating support. The wedding planner, Kathy, and her team were amazing to work with. She listened and supported our daughter’s desire to have an outdoor ceremony (in December in Maine!) and it worked out beautifully. Our guests raved about the venue, the food, and the service, and we were pleased and proud to offer a beautiful experience to them. We work in the hospitality industry, so we know how challenging big events can be, but the team at Old Saco Inn was professional, friendly, and accommodating. I recommend them 100%!
