The Inn on Peaks Island Reviews

Having a cumulative 5 star review when you have a handful of reviews is good. Having a cumulative 5 star review when you have 75+ reviews says something! You can absolutely trust the submissions. Our entire experience could not have been better and we recommend this venue 100%.

We'll start with Jayson, the venue coordinator. All the advice you read in wedding articles or see on Tik Tok and Instagram about a venue coordinator only looking out for their space and their team completely goes out the window when you work with Jayson. He is there for you from start to finish, offering to help out and do things leading up to and on the day that most in his position won't do. He was the most helpful and available basically the entire year from signing our contract until our wedding day. But most importantly, he's kind and sincere and understanding and a joy to work with.

Next up - the space. Before wedding season 2023, all new floors were installed throughout the venue that are beautiful and brighten up the space, and a gorgeous new tent with crystal chandeliers was installed too. The vibe of the space is "coastal modern", which can perfectly be dressed up or down depending on whether you're going for casual new england or an elegant affair. We saw the space for the first time on a FaceTime with Jayson and loved it virtually - seeing it in person was a real 'wow' moment.

Location is conveniently right off the ferry so no worries about guests getting lost or complaining of their feet hurting from a long walk to get there.

Lastly, the food was delicious. We had very picky friends tell us it was the best shrimp cocktail they've had in a long time, which says a lot! The presentation of the raw bar in a boat was so cute. We had no idea that's how it would come out and it definitely impressed our guests. If you're having a wedding in Maine you have to plus up on the lobster! You won't go wrong with the mini lobster rolls (really good size for a mini) and the filet & lobster meal. It's obviously the priciest option, and we were a little worried on quality because of the mass production aspect for an event, but it was very good and worth the extra spend.

You really cannot go wrong with choosing The Inn on Peaks Island. It's a gem of a find that we are so, so happy is part of our story now forever!

As all the other reviews have said, Jayson at the Inn on Peaks was truly incredible to work with. He was super responsive in answering our many questions and requests throughout the planning process and executed everything perfectly. Most importantly, he was fun to work with and made us feel at ease. Plus, the venue itself is gorgeous! The grounds and gazebo are beautiful for an outdoor ceremony, there are cool indoor-outdoor rooms with seating for cocktail hour, there’s a beautiful new tent with draping and chandeliers for dinner, and there’s space inside the inn for dancing.

Our experience working with Jayson and the Inn was truly a dream come true. There aren't enough kind words we can use to describe this venue, Jayson and his team, other than that they helped make our wedding day the best day of our lives. We knew right away upon first meeting Jayson that this was where we were going to get married. From the experience of the 15-min ferry ride over from Portland (our favorite city), to the chic, coziness of the Inn, to the warm, heartfelt and professional personality of Jayson, there's really no better venue than the IOPI for your special day. Every question/concern was answered both promptly and in detail, making the entire process seem much more manageable and easier to digest. Since they were also catering the food, the tasting that took place months before the big day was beautifully done and reassured us that the food at our wedding would be 10/10. The Inn provided the perfectly intimate yet roomy setting that we were looking for to entertain our roughly 120 guests in. If you're looking for a venue with a unique experience, terrific layout and the most outstanding director, then look no further than The IOPI. We love you Jayson and can't thank you enough! - M&M

Our wedding at The Inn on Peaks Island was perfect in every way. Everything starts with Jayson and the entire staff at the Inn that go above and beyond in everything they do. There were certain times throughout our planning process that stressed us out, but Jayson helped us work through all those decisions to create the perfect wedding day. The entire staff on our big day was amazing. They were there first thing in the morning helping us set up, and stayed throughout to make sure everything went smoothly. We truly can't thank them enough. The Chef is also incredible, and people are still complimenting the food.

The venue itself is beautiful, and has the perfect spaces for everything. The ceremony in front of the incredible gardens was perfect. The dinner tent is amazing, and the outdoor areas for cocktail hour were perfect for mingling with our guests. The dance floor and bar area were just the right space for an incredibly fun time. On top of all that, the spa and the private patio space for the wedding party were the perfect spots to get ready and gather ourselves. If you are staying at the Inn, the rooms are also beautiful and were big enough for us to hang out with our entire wedding party. The Inn on Peaks Island is truly the perfect wedding venue.

Jayson and the staff at the Inn on Peaks Island made our wedding the perfect experience we desired. The service, food, venue, and everything in between was incredible. If we ever had any questions or concerns, both before and during the wedding, the entire staff was willing and able to assist our needs. I would suggest getting married at the Inn for anyone interested. Our experience was absolutely perfect!

We cannot recommend the Inn on Peaks Island highly enough. We had our small wedding on New Year's Eve so made use of both the Bay View room and the attached heated/covered patio. Jayson and his team were meticulous in helping us think through every detail of the day. Jayson is in a tier of his own when it comes to service professionals. Over the 13 months, we were planning our wedding, he was responsive, kind, and resourceful. We had our families and wedding party stay in the Inn which has been beautifully renovated. We had a brunch wedding with an incredible spread: the food is delicious and thoughtfully prepared.

This is not a venue that is trying to give you a cookie-cutter wedding - they offer everything that you could need, but also want to ensure that your vision comes to life. A few examples: a few weeks before the wedding we asked if we could add a stout to our beer list. The bar is stocked by Shipyard and they were not able to get any in for the wedding. Jayson generously offered to go out to the grocery store and buy us some Guinness to ensure we had a stout on the menu. He was there on the 6:45AM ferry the morning of our wedding to open the salon and ensure my wife and her bridesmaids had breakfast. Finally, we had a few gluten-free guests and asked if they could mark which food was gluten-free: Jayson proactively offered several gluten-free options including making their signature lobster rolls with lettuce wraps so all of our guests could enjoy some Maine lobster. My parents flew into town back in October and we showed up on Peaks Island unannounced. Jayson dropped everything and gave my parents a full tour of the Inn on Peaks - they told us it was the highlight of their trip.

We researched so many venues along the Maine coast but as soon as we walked in the doors of the Inn on Peaks, we knew it was the place for us. If a one-stop-shop wedding venue on a quaint island with whole-hearted Maine hospitality is your cup of team, then book The Inn on Peaks.

As anyone reading through reviews will quickly learn, you cannot talk about the Inn on Peaks without talking about Jayson and his team. From the first day we met him he was nothing short of a delight, and he truly orchestrates the perfect wedding weekend. He was an amazing partner in decision making (covid delays, vendor recs, etc.), provided seamless coordination with vendors, and made our whole Peaks experience wonderful. Even our tasting was incredible with him playing host!

The venue is stunning, the grounds are impeccable, the food is superb, the bartenders made our guests laugh - there isn’t a single wedding element that the Inn on Peaks doesn’t completely hit out of the park. With that as a base, and Jayson running the show the Inn creates the ideal wedding for any couple.

We can’t cover all the incredible effort and sublime care that Jayson and the team put into our weekend in this review but trust us, and the litany of other glowing reviews, that working with Jayson and the Inn on Peaks is a no brainer. You’re thinking, is he really that incredible? He really is. THANK YOU JAYSON!

I truly cannot recommend the Inn on Peak’s enough for your wedding. From the first day we toured the venue, through a COVID postponement and right through our wedding night, Jayson and his staff made us feel like we were the only wedding on their calendar. Jayson was responsive and incredibly helpful with every email and request we had for 2 years. Your tasting is a personal experience and every time we visited the inn Jayson gave us a hug, poured us a drink and took the time to chat with us. The inn was incredibly accommodating and considerate when COVID changed our plans. On wedding day, Jayson and Kiersten not only made everything easy for me, my groom and family but even laughed cried and danced with us. The inn is a beautiful setting, the food is phenomenal and the staff there will make your day absolutely perfect in every way from beginning to end.

Look no further for the BEST Maine wedding venue!

The Wedding Coordinator, Jayson, was AMAZING! He made the entire experience and day feel at ease. He's extremely organized and very responsive. Unlike most wedding vendors, he got back to us with every little question we had (and we had a lot lol) immediately. He made the experience fun! If we could have a wedding every year at this venue with Jayson by our side we would! :)

Planning and executing a wedding during a global pandemic was certainly not easy but we did it! Jayson and Olivia handled every single detail to ensure that our daughter's wedding was absolutely perfect! They were very flexible with all of the changes that occurred and adapted without hesitation. The food was outstanding - our guests continue to reach out to tell me what a great time they had. The venue and newly renovated rooms are beautiful. The grounds are a gorgeous backdrop. I highly recommend working with Jayson and his team for your wedding! Wedding 8/15/2020

We cannot say enough great things about holding our wedding at the Inn on Peaks Island. Working with Jayson from start to finish was an absolute dream. He was a true professional and responded quickly to all my many questions. He and Victoria made the whole planning process simple, easy, and dare I say enjoyable. It was great having the entire day in one place and not having to shuttle between locations. My guests are still raving about the food (the mini lobster rolls in particular) to this day - 8 months later. If you are considering a wedding within the Portland area, do not overlook the Inn on Peaks Island! The cost of the venue is well worth the service and everything else you receive. You will not be disappointed.

From the moment we stepped in the door Jayson and Olivia were so very helpful. My heart and mind are at ease in my plans to work with them for our wedding day! Very excited to begin this process!!

Jayson and his team at the Inn on Peaks could not have done a better job for us. We cannot recommend them highly enough. Jayson made things incredibly easy for us both before the wedding and the day of. That we did not need to hire a wedding planner at all speaks to the level of service he provides. The Inn itself was the perfect space for a wedding of our size (~165 guests), and we were able to hold our ceremony on the front lawn - no guest transportation necessary. We also loved the food, both during dinner and cocktail hour. What we tasted was truly what we got on the big day. Overall, we felt like we were incredibly lucky that our wedding was so stress-free. Thank you Jayson!

My wife and I were fortunate to celebrate our June 1st wedding at the Inn on Peaks Island. As soon as we saw the Inn from the very charming ferry -- we knew we had chosen the right venue. Jayson and the entire staff at the Inn made us feel welcome and at ease from the menu tasting earlier in the year, to the ease of communication and booking leading up to the big day. We said our vows in front of family and friends in their beautiful outdoor ceremony space overlooking the water. The restaurant, bar, and event meals were fantastic throughout. Service was professional but very warm and comfortable. We really couldn't be happier with Jayson -- he was on top of things we hadn't even thought of, all while making us feel like we were old friends. 10/10 would get married there again. We already plan to visit on our 1st anniversary!

Jayson and the team we’re AMAZING. It was truly the best wedding experience we could have hoped for.

My husband and I got married here this summer and we can not imagine having our wedding reception anywhere else! We got married at a church nearby and then had our reception and our entire wedding party stay at the Inn for the weekend. It was perfect- highly recommended! Jayson was a huge help and somehow managed to answer our hundreds of questions prior to the wedding. The food was amazing as well, a great chef! Being from the area we have high expectations for lobster rolls and they were definitely better than any other wedding we've been to- their mini lobster rolls were huge! The price for this venue is well worth it- if anything we were surprised how low the cost was for everything that is included! The ferry was a fun experience for all of our guests although it did add a little stress given the ferry only runs once an hour, I was concerned some of my older relatives wouldn't make it but everyone did even in the height of tourist season! Overall an amazing experience and highly recommended!

No hidden fees, what you see is what you get in the package. Throughout the entire process it felt as though we were the only wedding at the venue. Beautiful reception space and food was actually delicious!

Reflecting back on our recent wedding at Inn on Peaks Island, this was truly the best day of our lives! Jayson helped to ensure that all my planning came to life and the place had the look and feel I intended. Actually, it was BETTER than I had even envisioned, which was amazing. The space was perfect for our group and I liked having the rooms segmented for the different chapters of the evening. My guests were comfortable and enjoyed the boat ride over and the true "Maine Experience" of traveling to the island for our special day. Jayson was helpful in coordinating with all my vendors the day of, which cut down on a lot of potential stress. It was also really convenient (and cozy!) to stay on site at the Inn with my wedding party and family. I really enjoyed our beautiful and spacious bridal suite where I got dressed for the wedding. The food was delicious and the service was excellent...they even made our own specialty cocktails that I enjoyed throughout the evening. I'd do it all over again if I could and make all the same choices.

We started planning our wedding a year in advance and had a couple venues set up to view. The inn on peaks was our first and only venue we looked at. We fell in love instantly. It had that backyard feel, met our price range and ocean views! Planning our wedding was flawless with the help of Jason. The food, the ferry ride, the inn was all perfect. Everyone at my wedding raved about it and how it was a perfect wedding! I can not recommend the inn on peaks enough!

The Inn on Peaks Island was perfect for us. We wanted a venue near the Portland airport for friends and family traveling from away, something with good natural light, and reasonable pricing for a roughly 120-person guest list. What we didn't expect was such an amazing coordinator (Jayson)--we couldn't have asked for more. It was a perfect set up for a couple who didn't have a wedding planner and were doing a lot on their own, but didn't want to worry about who was going to be in charge of logistics on the day of. Would HIGHLY recommend the Inn on Peaks Island. (The only thing to be aware of is travel logistics to/from Portland proper, especially for guests with limited mobility, but there are golf carts and taxis for when golf carts aren't available, but the .3 mile walk from the dock is easy for most.)

The Inn On Peaks Island was the PERFECT wedding venue for my husband and I. Jayson and his team made our day flawless and we would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone.

Thank you so so much to the entire staff for making our wedding the most amazing day of our lives. HUGE thank you to Jayson for seeing our vision through and providing endless support with all of our vendor partners who made our day magical.

Jayson and the whole team at the Inn on Peaks Island handled all the details for our wedding so seamlessly—and always with a smile. A joy to work with. The location is fabulous! Our guests who didn’t stay at the Inn enjoyed a beautiful sunset on the ferry ride back to Portland. A “destination wedding” on the gorgeous coast of Maine. Couldn’t have been better!!

I can't say enough wonderful things about our incredible wedding reception at the Inn on Peaks Island, and the supportive team.
I'm a very Type A bride who planned 90% of the wedding remotely. Jayson was so easy to work with - always very quick on responses, provided clear explanations, and had everything that we needed to plan for our wedding. He provided guidance from other weddings without being too pushy, and even though I probably drove him crazy with all of the questions, he never acted like I was bothering him or an inconvenience. Especially on the days leading up to the wedding, Jayson and team were so extremely helpful! On our wedding day, Jayson did an incredible job keeping us on schedule, seamlessly following from activity to activity. I was blown away by his wedding coordination and really couldn't have asked for anything better. As someone who was so nervous about the schedule and coordination for the day of, I definitely shouldn't have been, as I felt taken care of the whole day.
For the Inn itself, it is a really beautiful location, with plenty of room to dance, sit outside, play games, etc. It was great that our guests were able to relax how they wanted. There was a lot of decorations that are included as well, which is great for saving money on purchasing decorations. The food was absolutely delicious as well - I would highly recommend the late night food if you are able to include that. Our guests are still talking about the late night lobster rolls and pizza.
The only downside is that it's hard to see from the dance floor, for the cake cutting and the first dances, but was small in comparison to all the amazing pluses of the venue.
We also loved the approximately to the beach (we had some great photos) and the Inn rooms on site!
Honestly, you won't be disappointed if you have your wedding at the Inn on Peaks Island. I would 100% recommend!

We could not have been more happy with our Inn on Peaks Island experience! Beautiful location, great food, and amazing staff. Jayson (Wedding Director) was tremendous throughout the whole process - inviting us out to visit whenever we wanted, answering questions promptly, and even engaging with our parents and relatives prior to the big day. Despite dubious weather conditions the day of, we had complete confidence in Jayson and his team to take care of things (and they did, despite getting soaked). We will always be grateful to Jayson for making this such a wonderful occasion for us, and we highly recommend the Inn on Peaks Island!

The Inn on Peaks was the most wonderful wedding venue imaginable. Our guests had the unique experience of seeing Portland, boarding an quick ferry, and visiting Peaks Island, a picturesque Maine Island. The Inn itself is a beautiful venue with great attention to detail. The food served is excellent; our guests raved about the lobster rolls in particular. Jayson, the wedding coordinator at the Inn, is probably the best thing that could happen to a couple planning a wedding. He is so friendly first and foremost. He is also excellent at his job - incredibly knowledgeable about weddings with the most helpful tips for logistics, he is patient, responsive, and takes care of everything. If something went wrong at our wedding, we have no idea, because all we saw was a perfect wedding, and we credit that to Jayson and his team. From start to finish it was a dream.

We’ve loved our experience with the Inn so far! We can’t wait to get married there in October.

This was a beautiful destination and Jason is AMAZING. So close to home--and felt like in another world!! Loved It!!

Jayson is a saint - we got married this summer and he (as well as the rest of the Peaks staff) went above and beyond to give us a perfect day.

Guests raved about the food and location. We stayed in the suite upstairs and it was incredible - I was also able to stay there the night before with my bridesmaids so we could all get ready together in the bridal salon. Everything went so incredibly smoothly and the staff was so accommodating.

We’d looked elsewhere and just the idea of having to coordinate getting a tent, tables, catering, and staff was so overwhelming. Peaks has all the basics you need (and then you are more than welcome to customize to your heart’s content!). Would recommend a thousand times!

Just breathtaking when I saw everything come together! Jayson and his team at the Inn and the beautiful space make the entire experience easy and perfect for a New England wedding. Do not be intimidated by the ferry. It is so easy to just provide the instructions with the ferry time etc in the invitation/wedding website. Everything worked out smooth, vendors and guests all arrived without delays. I recommend telling guests to stay in airbnbs on the island, book in advance. Both of our families stayed at the Inn (rented out the entire place), which was so amazing and gave us the opportunity to spend the weekend together and make memories that were so special. It is not just about the wedding day but the entire wedding weekend. The Inn is so accommodating and the communication throughout the year of planning was just fabulous. And, the FOOD (which is one of the most important things at a wedding ) was just amazing. Highly recommend this venue!!!

Such a flawless & easy experience. I had 0 stress on this day and it was all because of the amazing expertise that this establishment offers. Highly, highly recommend for a magical wedding!

This venue was absolutely amazing. The wedding planner, Jayson, was so organized and handled everything that came up. I would not change a thing and I would 100% use this venue again. It was everything I wanted and more.

We loved our experience working with Jayson and the team! It is an amazing benefit to have on-site catering available, and we used a ton of the recommendations from Jayson for officiant, florals, cake, etc. Almost all of our vendors had previously done weddings at the Inn, which made logistics so much easier. Jayson was great about answering our (many) questions, and especially with emotional support when there was light rain. (Pictures turned out gorgeously!) Our guests were mostly from out-of-town and loved getting the Maine experience heading out to Peaks.

Had a great experience at my daughter's recent wedding at the Inn On Peaks. Jayson and the entire staff were great, professional and friendly. I heard many guests very complimentary of the food as well. The location and set up were beautiful. The Ferry's are a complication but - in a way - a fun complication. I will never forget my daughter peaking over my shoulder from her balcony room watching about 125 well dressed guests coming up to the Inn from the Ferry a couple of hundred yards away. It is quite a sight - it did seem that many guests enjoyed the novelty of a ferry ride. Thanks to all the staff at the Inn - it could not have been better.

Working with Jayson at the inn was an incredible experience. Everything exceeded expectations and Jayson, the wedding director, was a big part of that. We've been married for 2 weeks now and we are still sort of dazed and how well everything worked out. Jayson and the Inn on Peaks made our day the best it could possible be. You cannot put a price on that.

When you live 800+ miles away and have never been to Portland you rely heavily on reviews and people from the area to plan your destination wedding for 130 guests. The Inn on Peaks Island exceeded all of our expectations. The staff is extremely detail oriented, professional and timely. Jayson the wedding coordinator needs to be cloned as he made planning a wedding from afar as easy as it could be. The food was delicious, the garden was colorful, the service was impeccable and everyone had an amazing time. Thank you for helping give us the best day of our lives! We wouldn't change a thing and want to do it all over again!

Everything about The Inn on Peaks Island was absolute perfection, from the location, to the food, to the incredible event staff. I cannot speak highly enough of Jayson. He was kind, responsive, professional, and helped keep every step of wedding planning through the actual wedding day as stress free as possible. He was instrumental in making what we had envisioned our wedding day to be a reality, and he did it flawlessly. Numerous guests have said it was the best wedding they had ever been to, which is directly attributed to the efforts of Jayson and his amazing team. Our wedding day was truly the best day of our lives and if we could we would relive it over and over again! We HIGHLY recommend choosing The Inn on Peaks for your Maine wedding – you will be SO happy you did!

The Inn, Jayson, and his staff are absolutely INCREDIBLE! From the very beginning when we were touring the venue until the morning after our wedding Jayson and his staff were there to help. I highly recommend the Inn not only for its gorgeous location but for the food (seriously - people couldn't stop talking about how great it was) and Jayson and his staff. Everything was executed perfectly. They were so professional, handled everything with care and absolutely rocked it. Any tiny snag that happened, it was taken care of with such ease. It was such a stress free day I can't even thank them enough. I could not be happier with how everything turned out. The amount of compliments we received have been endless and this is due to everyone at the Inn. Thank you for making our day perfect.

If you want to get married in Maine, get married here! Jayson, the Wedding Director at the venue, is an absolutely amazing event coordinator. He was so incredibly responsive each step of the way and he made perfect suggestions for other vendors for us as well! Everything went so smoothly the day of our wedding because of Jayson. He had every minute perfectly scheduled and we didn't have to worry about a thing. Our guests continue to tell us that it is the best wedding venue they have ever seen. All the spaces from the ceremony space to the tent to the dance floor flow together so smoothly. Additionally, the views can't be beat! The Inn on Peaks Island is so beautifully landscaped and it's a perfect backdrop for a wedding. The food at the Inn on Peaks Island is absolutely phenomenal, I have never had such good wedding or banquet food. The mini lobster rolls were a smash hit! Ultimately, the choice of the Inn on Peaks Island for our wedding venue is the best decision we have ever made! I can't express enough how grateful we are for Jayson and his team!

Jayson was amazing!! The food was perfect, the location was perfect, and the service was outstanding! Anytime there was a last minute change to be made or an unexpected snafu - Jayson took care of it without issue! He was the most helpful person and is THE reason our event went so well! We couldn't have done it without him. HIGHLY recommended! If I could do it all again I'd pick this location (and Jayson) - hands down.

I was overwhelmed and amazed by Jayson and Victoria and everyone who helped make our wedding AMAZING. From the first visit, to the one-on-one food tasting, to the entire day being made perfect by their attentiveness and professionalism, we are so grateful and blessed that we chos to have our wedding here. Highly, HIGHLY recommend this beautiful location and incredible team. We will be back for our first anniversary!!! Thank you so much!!!!❤️❤️❤️

Planning a wedding can be a very stressful experience. As a first time bride, I started to feel overwhelmed. When we chose Inn on Peaks Island as our venue, things started to fall into place. Jayson was awesome to work with, and answers any questions. They also provide a preferred vendors list and it gives you a good starting place. A lot of our vendors we selected off of this list, and to have the vendors work with the Inn was awesome. When it comes to wedding day, sit back and enjoy it. Jayson was everywhere and the rest of the team at the Inn and the staff were amazing. Beautiful venue and delicious food, we got so many compliments on how amazing the venue is and how people wanted to just keep eating. It's hard to find someplace that offers area inside, under a tent, and outside options all in one. As a plus, the ferry ride adds quite the experience for all guests!! Extremely happy we chose Inn on Peaks Island for our wedding!

This venue was absolutely PERFECT! Jayson and his team coordinated everything to a tee, and were very flexible and accommodating. Their level of professionalism and kindness was above and beyond, and my big day was like a dream! I can't thank the team enough for everything they did to make my wedding day all that I wanted and much much more. These people know how to do weddings...HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend!

Jayson Mathieu was a pleasure to work with during the planning and onsite for our lobster bake. The process was easy and our group loved the evening. The food was wonderful and staff was friendly and welcoming.

So glad we found this gem! The Inn and staff were AWESOME! Our guests had a wonderful time and we had the night of our lives. Highly recommend!!

The Inn was beautiful and the food was delicious. Jayson and his team were so accommodating and friendly. The service they provided for our ceremony and reception was excellent!

Couldn't be happier to have chosen The Inn On Peaks Island for our wedding- the location is amazing, our guests raved about the food and the staff was extremely accommodating and made the wedding day exactly how we wanted it. Jayson was professional and trustworthy throughout he entire planning process and is a big reason why we chose this venue- best decision we ever made!

Highly highly highly recommend the Inn on Peaks Island. Jayson and his team did a FANTASTIC job. Every interaction with Jayson and the inn was easy and professional from day one of our initial visit to the final day which was the best party I've ever been too and the best day of my life. We had MULTIPLE friends and family come up to us after our wedding and say this was the BEST they have ever been too. That is directly attributed to the beautiful setup the Inn has and the tireless efforts of Jayson and his team. Just a fantastic day at a fantastic place. Book your island wedding now!

-A very happy Geoff and Caitlyn

Would highly recommend the Inn on Peaks Island to anyone looking to have a Maine beach wedding! Jayson was amazing to work with, and answered any questions that we (or either sets of our parents) threw his way. The food was spectacular, and the venue was gorgeous. We've had so many guests compliment the venue, saying that it was the perfect summer wedding spot. Also- we did lots of price comparisons with other venues, and the Inn on Peaks was a great value for all that you get with it.

There is absolutely nothing bad that I can say about this venue. The food is amazing, rooms are adorable, and the space is beautiful! The wedding manager assists you with every aspect of the process.

Book at the Inn on Peaks! My wedding was absolutely perfect. The staff were professional, efficient, and helped my wedding run smoothly wiithout me having to worry about a thing. Jayson was wonderful. He answered all my questions quickly and without hesitation with an answer that always put me at ease. Victoria assisted day of coordinating the scheduled events- I don't know what I would have done without her! Lastly, the venue is absolutely gorgeous. If I were to do it all over again, I wouldn't have changed a thing! :)

Our experience with the Inn on Peaks was nothing short of amazing! We got married in July 2016 and we can honestly say it was the best day of our lives. The venue has a perfect mix of outside and inside areas along with amazing views. The outside area is beautifully landscaped - there was plenty of space for our guests to play lawn games and an awesome lounge area that our friends and family really enjoyed! All of our guests absolutely raved about the food. We did a buffet and it worked out perfectly. We loved being able to have all our immediate family stay at the Inn, it made everything easier. The bridal salon was super convenient and a perfect place to get ready! The wedding coordinator Jayson, along with all of the staff at the inn, were absolutely incredible to work with!! We can't say enough great things about them. We looked at so many venues in Maine and were really struggling to find the location for our wedding until we met Jayson and saw what the Inn had to offer. He was the primary reason we first booked the venue - he really sold us on the venue and it beyond exceeded our expectations! Throughout the process, he was incredibly responsive and helpful. On the day of our wedding, we had a huge hail storm and Jayson and the staff went right into action securing the tent and making sure everything still went smoothly! We were just beyond thrilled with Jayson, the staff, and this venue! You will have no regrets if you choose the Inn on Peaks!

My husband and I got married and had our reception at the Inn on Peaks Island in July 2016. I cannot say enough nice things about this venue and everyone that works there. From the moment we toured the venue to the end of our wedding day, Jayson and his team were helpful, professional, and were one step ahead of us making sure that our day went off without a hitch! They went above and beyond. They know weddings!!! All of our guests have been talking about the wedding since and telling us it was the best wedding they had ever been to!! The Inn on Peaks allows you to fully enjoy your day and be in the moment without worrying about all of the little details - they've got it under control! I would absolutely recommend this venue to anyone thinking about an island wedding. The location, the food, the atmosphere, the inn... it was incredible. I wish we could relive that day over and over again!

Our wedding at the Inn on Peaks Island was absolutely flawless. We could not have chosen a more perfect venue. The Inn is truly amazing in so many aspects. First there’s, Jayson. Jayson is BEYOND FABULOUS and best wedding coordinator you will ever get the opportunity to work with. Words cannot express how awesome he is and how grateful I am to have been able to work with him. I was seriously blown away by him. He made sure every little detail was taken care of, was there at the drop of a hat if/when I needed something and did not miss a single beat. He went above and beyond to make our entire wedding experience perfect and stress-free and he absolutely nailed it. My bridal party even noticed and could not stop talking about how meticulous/detail-oriented and thoughtful he was. One of my bridesmaids even asked him if he would be willing to travel to Newport to coordinate her wedding. Overall, he was the superhero on our wedding day and an absolute dream throughout the entire wedding planning process. Jayson, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! You are so wonderful and amazing at what you do!

In terms of the venue itself, the Inn is absolutely stunning and the perfect layout for a wedding. The rooms are adorable and quaint, the dance floor area and tent are spacious and flow together nicely, the ceremony space is so beautiful, and the third floor apartment was perfect for our wedding party along with the salon that was incredibly convenient and the perfect set up for hair and make up. The food was OUTSTANDING – our guests are still raving about how delicious everything was! The staff was friendly, attentive, and courteous at all times and was there to help us with whatever we needed.
Overall, I cannot say enough good things. The Inn is the ideal place for a wedding and I can’t recommend this venue enough! We had so many people come up to us and say that our wedding was the best wedding they’ve ever been to and we owe it all to Jayson and the Inn.

Our experience was amazing!! Jayson was GREAT to work with from all accounts. He was unfortunately unable to be present for our ceremony/reception but he left is a GREAT hands with Tori and Andrew! From start to finish we could not have asked for a better experience! We are looking forward to visiting again and highly recommend the Inn on Peaks Island! Thank you all so very much!!

Jason and his team are incredible! Jason was always there for us to answer any questions we had along the process of planning are wedding. Jason was there day of fully prepared and ready to tell me where to be and where to go with a smile on his face :) The venue is beautiful and affordable! I would highly recommend The Inn on Peaks Island to any couple, especially a couple who want something a little different then a basic hotel or function hall. From the ferry ride over to the walk up the hill the experience of getting married on Peaks Island was well worth the travel for us Bostonians!!
We can not thank Jason and the Inn on Peaks Island enough for making our wedding the best day ever!!!

Wonderful venue. Food was spectacular. Jayson makes sure everything is perfect from the decor to making sure I had a plate of food, to timing the ceremony/cake cutting/toasts, ect.

Jayson Mathieu is INCREDIBLE! Our wedding day was literally perfect! If there was ever a time where I was stressed about something or had a question (which I had plenty) Jayson was right there by my side answering everything and making me feel better about it all. He had to deal with questions from me, my husband, my mom, my aunts, & he was so accommodating! Jayson and his crew were so helpful and provided us with whatever we needed. The rehearsal went so smooth because Jayson just directed all of us and ensured us all that he would que everything for us, when to walk, when to be where, etc. On the day of, I wasn't nervous about anything going wrong! I knew Jayson had everything under control and he really did all night long. He helped us move through the ceremony with ease, he made sure my husband and I always had a drink in our hand to help finally relax, he made sure we ate our food, directed us to our first dance, and so much more! He was upfront about everything & was so easy to work with! He was able to literally give me everything I have ever wanted for my wedding day plus some.

OH and did I mention the Inn is absolutely GORGEOUS! Between the location, the ocean, the beautiful flowers at the Inn, gorgeous tent, etc. it was perfect, I can't say it enough. The ferry was easy for everyone to get on and off and Portland is of course such a great city as well. You have options to stay on the island or back in Portland and it's all just so fun! If you are looking for a wedding venue on the coast, with a perfectly unique feeling the Inn on Peaks Island is the place for you! As a bride, I have zero complaints :)

The venue specialist was wonderful. The promoxity to the ferry is great. The stsff were splendid.

Jason and Andy and the rest of the Inn staff were so wonderful and helpful throughout our wedding weekend! The food was delicious, our friends still talk about the lobster rolls and butternut squash ravioli. The location was perfect for us and we feel lucky to have been married there.

The Inn at Peaks was a great venue for our small, intimate, summer wedding in Maine. It felt like a destination wedding and we expected that many of our guests wouldn't come because of the ferry logistics. The opposite happened. Everyone was excited to come to Maine for a summer wedding on the island. The ferry ride is 15-20 minutes and we bought all of our guests round trip tickets in advance. One of my family members waited at the terminal with a balloon to meet our guests and hand out the tickets. We made sure to communicate with our guests well in advance about parking in Portland and getting to the terminal on time (for the two prior ferry's leading up to our wedding). The venue was exactly what we were looking for. The tented area was beautiful and we rented lanterns to hang along with the lights that they provided. Our guests really enjoyed the indoor outdoor aspect of this venue. People were able to dance inside the Inn then sit outside on the deck/porch area when they wanted. Jason was incredible! He managed all the logistics from checking in with us in the parlor when we were getting ready, right down to walking down aisle. I stayed at the Inn with my bridesmaids the night before, which was super helpful. We brought over all their dresses and my dress so we were stressing the day of. We also had two photographers which was fun--one stayed with my husband as they got ready and the main photographer stayed with us. The pictures were beautiful! This is a great venue, very professional staff. Wouldn't change a thing.

The Inn on Peaks Island was the perfect destination venue for many out of town guests and for planning a wedding remotely. The Inn staff was extremely accommodating and responsive every time I e-mailed with questions. Guests enjoyed delicious appetizers and meals while dancing the night away. Jayson was extremely helpful in the planning process and was necessary to help plan the day-of. He made the day run smoothly and ensured everything was perfect! I would highly recommend the Inn for anyone looking to celebrate in style with stress-free!

There are not enough kind and positive words to describe our experience at Peaks Island Inn. Even on a rainy day the venue was stunning! Everything felt so cozy and perfect for fall. Our wedding was absolutely perfect in every way! Largely in part due to Jayson! He helped not only make the entire day flawless, but made everyone feel so welcome! He went over and beyond in every way, he made sure my pregnant sister got a piece of the wedding and that my great aunt was always comfortable. As the bride and groom it is typically hard to get a minute to sit and eat, but Jayson made sure we made time to sit just the two of us and enjoy our meal! Not only did we feel special as the bride and groom, but all of our guests did as well! I loved all the staff, the environment, the beauty of the Inn and the Island. I would get married there over and over again! Our entire day was flawless, we were taken care of the minute we decided to look at the Inn. So happy we picked the Peaks Island Inn for our ceremony and reception!

We had a wonderful experience at the Inn on Peaks Island. Jayson and his team made sure our every need was attended to from before we picked our date all the way through the big day!

Our wedding at the Inn on Peaks Island was perfect! Jayson was so easy and fun to work with and made everything go so smoothly. All of our guests had the best time and loved the venue and food. I highly recommend the Inn on Peaks Island, such a unique and unforgettable venue!

Jayson and his staff and beyond phenomenal. I would highly recommend the inn on peaks island to everyone! Our wedding could not have been any better and I can't thank all of you enough for all the work you put into our day! Every guest that attended agreed it was one of the best weddings they've been to - which was a compliment only to the inn, not us! Every last detail was looked after and we had the perfect day!

The Inn on Peaks Island was the absolute best choice to have my wedding. Jayson and the team was beyond accommodating and went above ad beyond any typical wedding venue. To add to that, it was the most beautiful place I could have asked for and the food was delicious (and it impressed a whole bunch of NYC food snobs!). As a long time summer resident of Peaks, the Inn was by far the ultimate place to have such a special event take place. I HIGHLY recommend it to anyone interested in having a Maine/Island wedding.

My husband and I had the most amazing experience at the Inn on Peaks Island! Jayson, as our coordinator, was an absolute dream to work with. He is incredibly organized, friendly, professional and fun! I felt completely at ease and knew that our wedding would be spectacular with him in charge. The food was AMAZING - people are still talking about it 8 months later! I can't tell you how many people have said that our wedding was the best, most beautiful and most fun wedding they had ever attended!

Also - I looked around a lot before deciding on a venue and the pricing at the Inn is remarkable, especially compared to some of the astronomical prices you find in far less beautiful venues in Maine. The value was amazing.

If I could get married 100 more times at the Inn on Peaks, I would. My day was perfect from beginning to end and I have such beautiful memories and photos that I will carry with me for the rest of my life :) Thank you for making my dreams come true!

My husband and I were married at the Inn this past June, and I all I can say is WOW! The wedding director, Jayson, and his staff made everything about our day perfect and there is no way our wedding would have flowed as well without him. From the initial phone call to the day after the wedding, Jayson was helpful every step of the way with the vision we had for our wedding day.

All the guests commented on what a beautiful wedding venue it was, and loved the experience of taking the ferry over to Peaks Island. If you are looking for a venue that offers a beautiful atmosphere, great food, and a fun experience for your guests, The Inn on Peaks Island is the best venue. We cannot wait to go back a visit this fall to see the staff again and have a fun dinner on the patio!

We had a great wedding at the Inn on Peaks Island!! The wedding director, Jayson, was very supportive throughout the whole planning process and was a key player in making our special day a great success. The venue is beautiful and our guests loved the experience of traveling via ferry to this great destination spot. Our appetites were satisfied with the delicious hors d'oeuvres and entrees (we chose family style). We recommend this venue highly and wish we could do it all over again!

My husband and I were married at the Inn on Peaks Island in September. I cannot explain how wonderful Jayson Mathieu and Amanda Conley were to work with! They were the most professional and thoughtful people to plan your wedding with. The service they provided and their perfect execution of my vision for our wedding day was second to none.

Unfortunately, it rained really bad the day of our wedding. I thought it would ruin everything but Jayson and Amanda worked with us during the rehearsal to ensure everything would go fine -- and it did. Our wedding was so wonderful, you would have never known it was raining outside!

The Inn on Peaks Island is a gorgeous venue with amazing service! If you choose this venue you will not be disappointed!

Weddings are stressful! Amanda, Jason and Fred were some of the most professional, friendly and just plain nice people I have ever dealt with in any situation. I want to get married again, just so I can bother them for months on end. I don't care where you were thinking about getting married, you can't get a better bang for your buck than the Inn on Peaks Island! And the rooms are amazing! If you were on the cusp of getting married...DO IT! And have it on Peaks!

The Inn on Peaks was more than perfect for a Maine summer wedding. Jayson made all the planning and day-of go smoothly! I couldn’t imagine a better experience!

We got married at The Inn on Peaks Island in August 2016 and it truly was the best day ever! Jayson, the venue coordinator, absolutely knocked the planning and execution of the event out of the park. From the early days of coordination to the day of the event, everything ran so smoothly and Jayson made our wedding day stress-free and exciting. His staff was helpful with set-up and very accommodating to our various DIY decorations. Everyone at the Inn really made our guests feel welcome. On top of the world-class service, the venue itself is one of the most stunning we've ever seen. The Inn accommodations are spacious yet quaint "New England" and that style definitely translates to the event space as well. The space easily fit our 140 guests and even our 9-piece band (tight but do-able)! All of our guests raved about the food, the views, and the service all night and we're still getting compliments on the overall event. If you're considering a Maine wedding, The Inn on Peaks Island is the perfect all-in-one location to celebrate one of the best days of your life. We would highly recommend, and we'll definitely be coming back to Peaks for anniversaries and vacations. Thank you Jayson and team!

We worked with Jayson leading up to the wedding, and then both Jayson and Victoria helped enormously on the wedding day. They are both very professional, responded to all emailed questions within one day (even the crazy ones!), and made our wedding day run smoothly. The Inn is constantly making improvements to make their hosted weddings even better. Jayson and Victoria made sure we were comfortable with everything happening and the flow of our wedding. They made sure all decorations and elements were set up and directed all vendors so we didn't have to worry about that during the wedding. They also made sure all guests were comfortable, even getting the heat lamps out when it started to get chilly. The only thing I wish is that it could have been longer! Sound ordinances on the island prevent music past 10:15 pm, but it really was a great party and that allows your guests time to catch the ferry and have a short after party in the pub. With all the logistics of having a wedding on an island, Jayson was very helped and knowledgeable about ferry schedules, timing of events and all the details. He and his assistants packed all of our stuff up afterward so we'd have an easy time getting back on the ferry in the morning. We would highly recommend the Inn on Peaks! They made our day the perfect fairytale!

Jason was very organized and helpful. He ensured that we had everything planned ahead of time that needed to be, but remained flexible about quite a bit. A Sunday wedding was a bit difficult, but the Inn was an excellent venue. They even plated some food and extra cake for us to have after the reception and had it brought up to our room. We highly recommend staying at the Inn the night of your wedding, too. It's convenient, comfortable, and romantic. Jason ran everything beautifully- well timed, energetic, and helped keep us all calm behind the scenes. All-in-all a great venue with great service.

My husband and I never thought we could afford to have a coastal Maine wedding, but the folks at The Inn on Peaks Island absolutely made our dreams come true! From the first time we took the ferry out to have lunch at The Inn and speak with someone on staff (I think it was Andrew!) to our BIG day over a year later, we felt completely comfortable and cared for throughout the entire process. These people know weddings! Our coordinator, Jason, was amazingly responsive and reassuring to all of my questions and concerns, from finding the right vendors to the tiny day-of details. His knowledge, sense of humor and enthusiasm was both impressive and a calming presence that I was so grateful to have by my side. I would highly recommend this venue for those that are looking for the real deal coastal Maine wedding experience while also on a budget. Our total spending for the wedding was around $20,000.

Jason was our wedding coordinator (he is also the GM) and was absolutely amazing!! I work consumer events as my profession so I know I wasn't the easiest bride, but Jason did a great job attending to the details and keeping my calm. I think all of our vendors (except Jason) drove me a little crazy at one point, it was nice having someone who you felt was just there to help.

It is a pricey location, but you get unbelievable views and an unforgettable setting. It's like no other place in New England. We also did not grow up in Maine so did not know about "camper's weekend" and of course chose campers weekend which made it literally impossible to get a room block, that was a big headache, I really wish the Inn would have advised us on that.

I wanted to give 5 stars all around but couldn't with flexibility because they would not allow any other beers on site besides Shipyard (and Miller Lite) at the time of my wedding I worked for Sam Adams and really wanted my favorite beer there but there was no budging. Obviously not Jason's fault, the owner's also own Shipyard but I really wish they made exceptions to this, I definitely wanted Maine craft beer at my wedding but also wanted my favorite beer, they wouldn't even bring in bottles or cans. Obviously this was something important to me, but probably isn't to most brides :) So I'm sure your experience will be a 5 out of 5!
