Maddy and Matt

---

Join me as I relive Maddy and Matts elegant Autumn wedding day in Maine! Nestled in the picturesque countryside outside of Portland, resides The Garden Gate at Haley Farm.

This venue offers couples a charming escape into rustic elegance. This venue provides the perfect backdrop for a fall wedding filled with romance and enchantment. Lets discover The Garden Gate and why it was the ideal setting for this sweet couple’s unforgettable celebration of marriage.

As the seasons transition and the air grows crisp, The Garden Gate comes alive with the rich hues of fall. While the autumn colors may not have started to show, the essence of the upcoming season hangs in the air. Just picture exchanging vows amidst the tranquil beauty of the countryside. Surrounded by lush greenery and the gentle rustle of leaves. With its sprawling gardens, and quaint barn The Garden Gate offers a intimate setting for your wedding day.

At The Garden Gate, rustic charm meets understated elegance in a harmonious blend that speaks to the heart. The venue’s rustic barn, with its exposed wooden beams and soft, ambient lighting, provides a warm and inviting space for your ceremony and reception. Outside, the expansive grounds offer endless opportunities for romance, from intimate moments shared beneath the shade of ancient trees to lively celebrations under the open sky.

Maddy and Matt chose to have their ceremony down a path where you are surrounded by towering pines. Their cocktail hour complete with corn-hole was held on the sloping lawn outside the barn. As the evening progressed everyone moved inside the candlelit barn for a night of dinner, toasts and dancing! This sweet couple ended the night with a sparkler exit. I encourage my couples to take a second and turn around to look at their guests before driving away. It was such a precious moment to document.

From the heartfelt vows exchanged to the laughter and joy shared with family and friends, every moment can be cherished for years to come. The heart of Maine’s countryside beckons couples to embrace the simple joys of rustic elegance and timeless romance. With its tranquil setting, understated charm, and warm hospitality, it offers the perfect canvas for hosting and enjoying an elegant Autumn wedding in Maine. So why not let The Garden Gate be the backdrop for your unforgettable fall wedding?
