Bailey Island Coastal Wedding

This June coastal wedding took place at the Sea Escape Cottages on Bailey Island, Maine. A beautiful spot on the ocean’s edge with room for much of the wedding party to stay. The bride and groom continued to stay for the rest of the week on their honeymoon.
The bride & groom were a wonderfully laid-back couple looking for a relaxing event with exceptional food. They and most of their guests are currently working or have worked in the restaurant industry, so the quality and presentation of the food was a major concern.

We put together a custom seasonal menu that highlighted some of Maine’s finest ingredients.
