    Please join us for drinks & light bites at Jones Landing on Peak’s Island.

    Details

    Peak’s Island is one of our favorite spots in Maine. Check out this page for activity ideas if you want to explore Peaks before or after the welcome drinks!

  • Saturday, September 9
    4:00 pm Ceremony

    Cocktails, dinner, and a whole lot of dancing to follow.

    Location
    Broadturn Farm
    Scarborough, Maine

    Attire
    Fisherman Formal (aka cocktail attire)

    When choosing footwear, keep in mind that we will be on a working farm and most events will take place on grass.

    Transportation
    Shuttles:     1 shuttle will depart from The Westin (downtown Portland) at 3:15pm for those staying in town.

    At the end of the night, shuttles will depart from Broadturn Farm at 9:15pm and 10:25pm, dropping off at The Westin & at Anoche for the after-party.

    Other Options:

    • Uber is available in the area, and typically readily available. However, Broadturn Farm is in a more rural part of Scarborough, so there I would expect a little bit of a wait at the end of the night.

    • Taxis & other car services are available for booking in advance. Some options include 207 Taxi and Portland Taxi Service.

  • Post-Broadturn Farm, we’ll keep the party going at Anoche in downtown Portland.

    43 Washington Ave
    Portland, ME 04101

    Anoche is 1 mile from the Westin on the East End of the peninsula - Ubers are plentiful in town to get around from this location.

ABOUT BROADTURN FARM

From their vision of a sustainable future to the beautiful organic flowers they farm, we landed on Broadturn Farm to host our celebration for many reasons. We appreciate Stacey Brenner - the owner and a Maine state senator - for holding the farm up to high standards through local activism, organic farming techniques, a no-plastic-waste policy, and the support of non-profit organizations.

Through this event, we aim to make as little of a footprint as possible and can’t wait to host you in this beautiful space.

 FAQs

  • As much as we love them… unfortunately, we cannot accommodate for children on 9/9/23. That said, if you will be traveling with them to Maine, we are happy to help you find care for them during the event.

  • Indeed! Uber tends to be more popular between the two. When traveling within downtown Portland and surrounding areas, we haven’t experienced issues in terms of availability.

  • It doesn’t get much better than early September in Maine with highs averaging 77 degrees and lows averaging 60.
