We rented rising tide for our wedding welcome party- it was the perfect spot!! We got to personalize the space but did not feel it needed much changing. It rained and the tented outdoor area was so helpful. The staff were so lovely and easy to work with all the way through and the pricing was very reasonable. Perfect location, light bite options, and of course, drinks 💕 we feel so appreciative!!!!!

We had a great experience working with Rising Tide, we had a small wedding of about 50 people and the East Room was just the right size. We also did our ceremony in the room and the staff rearranged the space during the cocktail hour, which was fairly smooth. It was a great deal and so convenient to have food, drinks, and the space all together.

Our newly renovated East Room, taking inspiration from the Coast of Maine, combines Portland's vibrant craft beer culture with a flexible event space designed for meaningful celebrations. We offer a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere where your family and friends are invited to mingle, sip, munch, and celebrate your day. Amenities, great service and planning support create a seamless celebration that feels personal, memorable, and uniquely Portland, Maine! Whether a rehearsal dinner, welcome party, post wedding brunch, or reception, wedding events at Rising Tide prioritize connection, conversation, and fun with help from our friends at Ugly Duckling who provide catering services onsite.

Hi, I'm Haylee! My passion for events started in the Tourism & Hospitality program at the University of Southern Maine where my highlights were planning a land and sea tour on a cruise to Bermuda and interning with wedding planners and tour operators. As an introvert, I never wanted to be the life of the party, but I loved being the heart of the party-- and that's where event planning came in. There's nothing I enjoy more than helping plan all the specifics, thoughtful details, special touches, and then standing back to watch it come to life for you and your loved ones.

We had the absolute best time celebrating our one year wedding anniversary this August at Rising Tide! Haylee, Rising Tide’s Private Event Manager, was extremely communicative and ...
helpful with our event planning. She thoughtfully offered us advice and recommendations for menu adjustments we wanted to make and was always quick to answer any questions we had around the venue, set-up, bringing in decorations, etc. Jenavieve and all of the on-site staff were fantastic - helping and anticipating things that we didn't even know we might need! I knew I could count on the Rising Tide team to keep everything running smoothly so my husband and I could focus on our guests. The food from start to finish was spectacular; all of our guests raved about it. Especially the oyster display, beautiful cheese board, and the delicious flatbreads! Rising Tide worked with us to provide gluten free options as well as vegetarian to meet the dietary needs of all our guests. Our only wish was that the night didn't have to end! We all could have stayed at least 2 hours longer given the chance! I would highly recommend Rising Tide to anyone looking to plan an event.

We held our wedding welcome party in their East Room and it was just perfect. Between the open garage room and the outdoor tent, there was lots of great space for people to mingle....
Everything flowed well together: the bar and thoughtful bar tenders, the screen to show a slideshow of photos, the speakers for music and speeches, and the flowers that were organized for each table. They set everything up professionally and Haylee was incredibly professional and helpful. Perfect vibe for a mingling party. We had 70ish people and could have had even more. Highly recommended!

he private space in which we had the party was modern, warm, and welcoming. We had Otto's deliver pizza, and O'Oyster come with their cart, which went seamlessly because Rising Tide has worked with many vendors and knows how everything should flow. We didn't have to worry about a thing and couldn't have asked for a better venue for our rehearsal dinner- it set the tone of fun for the entire wedding weekend, and a lot of that is credit to the staff at Rising Tide. I'd do it all over again in a heartbeat, and would highly recommend this place.
