The Barn sits on 25 acres and can accommodate up to 225 guests, we have a separate ceremony patio as well as a cocktail hour veranda. Ceremonies can take place on the patio, the grounds or under the trees. We are a la cart, which means we are a blank slate for you to create the wedding of your dreams. We offer ceremony benches for up to 250 as well as a beautiful birch arbor.
There are 2 houses on the property. The Farmhouse is 5 bdrm 2 bth completely renovated with a gorgeous couples suite, private bath and soaker tub.

Beech Ridge Barn was the only venue we toured - we visited 2+ years before our wedding and immediately booked it after meeting Bridget + seeing the property. Fast forward to over two years later, I can say booking this venue was absolutely the BEST decision we could have made. The barn is absolutely stunning, truly magical -- and our favorite part of the weekend was the ability to rent the guest houses with all of our friends. The houses were awesome + stocked with everything we would need. It's in a great location in Scarborough where you're super close to Portland but in a more rural area of the town for peace + quiet.
Bridget is worthy of her own review -- she was fantastic from start to finish and we felt very comfortable knowing she was in charge of the space. She just rocks. We will always remember Beech Ridge as one of the happiest weekends of our lives -- we can't recommend this venue enough to celebrate!

We first visited Beech Ridge Barn on a cold, rainy day, but even then, we fell in love with both the venue and with the owner Bridget. And on our wedding day, it was nothing short of magical! From the houses for us and our wedding party, to the stunning barn, everything was beyond what we imagined. Bridget went above and beyond, ensuring every detail was perfect—even tidying up the house after we were all getting ready and the reception! Our guests loved the variety of beautiful settings throughout the day: the picturesque ceremony location, the patio for cocktail hour, and the breathtaking barn for dinner and dancing. We truly believe we had the best wedding setting ever and couldn’t be more grateful for Bridget and Beech Ridge Barn. Thank you for making our day unforgettable!

BRB was the wedding venue of our dreams! Everything was beautiful and the owner Bridget was AMAZING. We used BRB for planning services as well and Bridget and her partner Meghan were exceptionally organized and made sure the day went smoothly. We truly can’t recommend this venue enough!

Bridget from Beech Ridge Barn has such a picturesque venue, and we were thrilled to have it for our wedding this November. The houses on property were so well-decorated and stocked with all the incidentals folks might have forgotten, which was a godsend more than once. We had an amazing time in this spectacular location, which made our big day unforgettable and beautiful. We'd highly recommend them to host your wedding!

I don’t even know where to start…. Booking our wedding at Beech Ridge Barn was the best decision we made! The barn and grounds are beyond beautiful, and have the capability to be customized to take on any theme you have in mind. The two houses on the property were perfect, and have all the amenities you can think of. The owners are awesome as well! They obviously care so much about the couples experience, and work really hard to make the wedding of your dreams a stress-free reality! Thank you so much Bridget and Steve!

Beech Ridge Barn Review
We were lucky enough to host our multi-day Indian American wedding at Beech Ridge Barn. From our first meeting, Bridget was so wonderful to work with. She and her husband run the most incredible business. The barn has two guest houses on site that were perfect for our wedding party and immediate family. Not to mention, each house was immaculately decorated and stocked by Bridget. She said it’s like Airbnb meets your best friends house and that’s the perfect description! The bridal suite was gorgeous and the perfect spot to host my bridesmaids.
The barn is an empty canvas, so you can really do whatever you want with it. With multiple spaces for ceremonies we were able to have a 2-day Indian American wedding with two completely different looks! Bridget and Rachel (odyssey event designs - our wedding planner) worked with us for over two years to get every detail just right. We felt so taken care of and like we had friends with us all weekend.
The barn has Sonos throughout, beautiful Adirondack chairs, magical lighting and other options that you can add a la Carte. We had the wedding of our dreams because of Bridget and this gorgeous venue!

Where do we even begin?! Having our wedding at Beech Ridge Barn was one of the best decisions we could have ever made. The layout of the barn is breathtaking, and as a couple you have the ability to add almost any flair you feel. The whole property is breathtaking, from the beautiful remodeled barn, to the farmhouses that compliment it, and the yard surrounding, it’s truly a dream venue. Bridget and Steve continue to add more amazing touches to the property that really suit their guests, while still maintaining the original feel of the barn.
My husband and I toured the barn on a super cold day in February and we fell in love immediately. We were not only sold on the beauty of the property, but Bridget was also AMAZING to work with from the start. She was always there to answer questions, give suggestions and share plenty of laughs with. It is clear how passionate Bridget and Steve are about the property and their guests.
After having our wedding at Beech Ridge Barn, Bridget and Steve are like family and the barn will always hold a special place in our hearts. We make it a point to drive by the barn anytime we are in the area just to fall in love all over again. Thank you so much Bridget and Steve for making our wedding unforgettable and for being the best hosts. You can’t go wrong with having your wedding here!

Booking Beech Ridge for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made in planning our wedding. The property is so beautiful and has such a great variety of vibes across all the amenities. Of course there is the beautiful barn, but there is also the concrete patio for anything outdoors, the deck with the pergola, the patio, the beautiful bridge down by the stream, the Farmhouse and Guesthouse and even the driveway all provide spaces to gather and celebrate. Being so close to Portland provides an entire city’s worth of hotels and restaurants for guests. Bridget and Steve do such an incredible job of maintaining the property. They were so helpful leading up to our weekend and were there behind the scenes making sure the day went off without issue. We decided to rent the houses for the weekend as well and it made everything that much easier. Beech Ridge has such a special place in our hearts and we recommend it to anyone looking to plan a wedding in Maine 😊

It was a pleasure working with Bridget to make our dream wedding come to life at Beech Ridge. We booked the venue site unseen from the West Coast and it was everything we had hoped for after seeing pictures and doing a virtual tour. We rented both guest houses for the entire weekend and we're so glad we did. The entire wedding party had so much fun all staying together and it was so convenient. The guest houses were clean and featured all the amenities we would hope for. The houses have heartfelt touches which made it feel even more special to stay there. Outside, we utilized the small wooden bridge for our first look and for an intimate vow exchange with our families and the wedding party. We used the patio area for the wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. The barn itself (used for the reception) has rustic charm and was really an open canvas for us and our vendors. A few things to keep in mind when booking this space: just about everything you'll need for the wedding, including tables and chairs will need to be rented. The blank canvas allows you to customize every aspect of your wedding which we loved, but keep this in mind when considering your budget. Also, if there is significant rain leading up to your wedding event there are some grassy areas that you are unable to utilize (for photos or the ceremony) because they get too wet and soggy. If this happens, there are plenty other places for beautiful photos and the ceremony. Overall, we were above and beyond pleased with the indoor and outdoor spaces. Bridget provided excellent communication and was very helpful leading up to and on the weekend of our event. We would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for beautiful space for their wedding.

The Beech Ridge Barn was everything and more that we envisioned for our wedding. We rented the barn and cottage for the weekend and it was so quaint and cozy. It made our wedding of 150 people feel very intimate. Bridget went above and beyond with assisting us, giving us advice in all wedding aspect and lending some us some of her beautiful rustic furniture. I HIGHLY recommend the Beech Ridge Barn if you are looking for the rustic barn themed wedding. We received so many compliments!! Truly the best day ever. Thank you Bridget!

The perfect venue! Can’t rave enough about the owner, Bridget, who has transformed this barn into the most gorgeous, classy space and put so much heart into it! She genuinely cares about the couples’ experience and went above and beyond to make it amazing. The patio is beautiful and overlook the trees and pond, and the huge barn fits so many people comfortably. Plus it’s close to the beach and to downtown Portland. Perfect spot - highly recommend!
