Atlantic Oceanside Weddings | Bar Harbor Maine Wedding Photographers
We’ve photographed weddings on previous occasions at Atlantic Oceanside Weddings, in Bar Harbor, Maine. And we want to share just how much we love this wedding venue! Here are our top 6 reasons why we love Atlantic Oceanside weddings:
The Atlantic Ocean.
The Atlantic Oceanside Hotel is right on the waterfront in Bar Harbor, Maine. Just before you get into downtown Bar Harbor, the Atlantic Oceanside Hotel is perched on the side of the Atlantic Ocean. See what we did there? You have a stunning view of Frenchman Bay!
Acadia National Park.
Acadia National Park is literally just a stone’s throw away from the Atlantic Oceanside. Not the back side, mind you, but the main park entrance at that! The park is full of rich and wonderful hikes, ponds, lakes, streams, carriage paths, scenic views, flora, fauna, and the list goes on and on. There’s also the Park Loop Road, which winds along the ocean. Acadia is one of the top 10 most visited national parks in the US! And that’s for so many excellent reasons! So you should spend some of your down time in Acadia, you won’t be sorry.
Ceremony and Reception Options.
Atlantic Oceanside weddings have so many options! Say your vows to each other on the lawn overlooking Frenchman Bay. Host your reception outside under a tent on the front lawn, or in the event center with its newly-renovated ballroom. Plan a cocktail party in the garden at the Willows. Create a wedding day that suits your own special needs.
The Willows B&B.
The Willows is a mansion built on Frenchman Bay in 1931. The mansion offers beautiful accommodations on the Atlantic Oceanside’s 12 acre property. With 13 guest rooms, including a penthouse, your entire bridal party (or family!) can stay under one roof! The Willows is also a wonderful location for a rehearsal dinner, as well as a wedding day cocktail reception.
Bar Harbor.
Bar Harbor, Maine has been a tourist destination since the late 1800s. There is something for everyone to stay busy in Bar Harbor. The are wonderful shops, restaurants, hiking, biking, whale watching, museums, cinemas, swimming, and more! All with a home town feel.
The People.
The staff at Atlantic Ocean Hotel and Event Center is fantastic! We’ve worked with Dede and PJ on Atlantic Oceanside weddings. These two ladies are not only super nice, they’re very accommodating, hardworking, and so easy going. Dede and PJ go the extra mile to help your Atlantic Oceanside wedding flow as smoothly as possible. You can’t ask for more than that!
