Congratulations to Chris & Lisa from Wells, Maine on their beautiful wedding on October 27th!

Chris and Lisa have been long time friends of our hotel – It was a pleasure to be a part of their celebration. You may recognize Lisa – she’s been a friendly face at the Front Desk and the West Meadow Pub over the years.

When the day arrived, the rain was falling – pouring actually. But the weather didn’t dampen anyone’s spirits. Mom, Bride and Bridal Party visited the Freedom Spa in the morning for hair and nails. Later, Lisa, Mom, Dad, bridesmaids and more, had pictures taken in the Presidential Suite and lobby before taking a limo to St. Mary’s Church in Wells for the ceremony.

Afterwards, the rain cleared for pictures at Laudholm Farm. With Fall’s gorgeous colors, the pictures were stunning and the back drop of the Farmhouse was romantic (visit photographybydenis.com to see Chris & Lisa’s photos. Denis was excellent – candid shots and big laughs out of everyone).

For the reception, Jonathan’s Restaurant provided excellent hospitality. The room was set with Fall leaves, chestnuts, acorns, candles, mini-pumpkins and deep red water goblets. And the food was outstanding –  fresh salads, New York sirloin, home grown squash and Maine red potatoes. The wedding packages at Jonathan’s are outstanding (check out their menu here) and most of their food is source from local growers. We saw quite a line at the buffet!

Finally, the happy bride and groom departed to beautiful (and warm!) Mexico for their Honeymoon. Best of all, they enjoyed their special day with friends and family. Congratulations again and here’s to Chris & Lisa!
