The Best Months to Get Married in Maine

Based on the most abundant selection of quality, locally sourced lush and luxurious, romantic blooms and foliage.

When planning a Maine wedding, the big decisions are typically made in this order:

1. Choose a wedding date & book a wedding venue

2. Hire a wedding planner

3. Hire a caterer

4. Hire a wedding photographer and videographer

5. Hire a wedding florist

Hiring a wedding florist is often the last decision a couple makes when planning their wedding. However, if incorporating seasonal, Maine-grown flowers is a priority for the couple, the following months are the best to plan a wedding date around. These months offer the most abundant selection of quality, locally sourced lush and luxurious, romantic blooms and foliage.

Why should Maine grown flowers be a consideration when planning a wedding?

Locally sourced flowers support the local economy. While local flowers cost the same or sometimes more than imported flowers, the quality is better. The blooms are fresher, stronger, bigger, and brighter.
