I have loved The Bethel Inn for a long time and we booked without hesitation before even going on our official tour. Brad, the salesperson and Shari, our day of coordinator were so easy to work with. Every time I had a question, they answered it with many details and contingency plans. We had planned to have an outdoor cocktail hour, but the wind was too strong on the day of our wedding. It was moved inside without incident and our day went off without a hitch! We used the main dining rooms and loved it because the architecture added to the ambiance of the room without a lot of extra work or planning for us. I would recommend The Bethel Inn to anyone and everyone looking to get married in a country setting with amenities.
Very friendly property which appealed to us being an LGBT couple. We decided to not choose this venue for our wedding based on the large size of the property, we wanted something more quaint and old-fashioned. The Bethel Inn appealed to us because it was basically a one-stop shop. Everything was in one place. I would recommend the Bethel Inn.
We got married this October at the Bethel Inn and had an absolutely magical wedding, that frankly exceeded my expectations! We had to reschedule our wedding from 2020 due to the pandemic, and Brad and co. were great in guiding us through the process, and promptly and kindly answering our many, many questions throughput a 2 year planning period. The Inn itself is charming and quaint and I felt like I was on a movie set the whole weekend. The backdrop for the ceremony is beyond beautiful and the staff were truly wonderful, warm and had a keen eye for detail that truly made everything exceptional. The food was delicious (I still want more of those meatballs) and everything was perfect. We can’t wait to back for our anniversary. Book your wedding here. You won’t regret it.
Any questions?
We couldn't have asked for a better place to get married. The food was absolutely phenomenal, you can tell John has a huge passion when it comes to food, it showed in everyone's faces while they were oohing and ahing over their meals. The dining rooms made for an intimate dining experience as well as dancing experience. The ceremony location on the 9th fairway hold stunning views of the mountains as well as a beautiful landscape in the foreground. It made for the most perfect backdrop for our peak foliage wedding. Brad and team were always super accommodating, very responsive, and was always willing to work with us. I never felt like I couldn't trust them when it came to day of preparations (set up, timelines, etc...). I highly recommend this venue!
We loved our wedding at the Bethel Inn so much. We got married at the The Bethel Inn Resort on the gazebo October, 26th 2019. The Bethel Inn was the perfect venue for our wedding. With step by step wedding planning assistance, wedding cake services, an amazing chef, and menu included in the wedding package. By far one of the most beautifully historic and affordable Maine wedding venues. Our guests are still talking about how much fun our wedding was! We cannot thank the staff at Bethel Inn enough! Thank you! ☺️❤️
The Bethel Inn was very accommodating to our many ideas while planning a wedding during the pandemic. They helped us ensure we had the wedding of our dreams while also keeping everyone safe!
The resort was beautiful and the wedding day ran smoothly which was everything I could ask for! The food was absolutely amazing and they truly make an effort to achieve the day you’ve always dreamed of. We are looking forward to celebrating out anniversary every year at Bethel!
We cannot say enough amazing things about having our wedding ceremony and reception at the Bethel Inn Resort! We got married August 18,2018 and was just perfect. Tammy James, the wedding coordinator at the Inn was amazing, she was an absolute pleasure to work with and made sure everything went so smoothly our whole wedding weekend. The entire staff was so accommodating to any need that may have come up throughout the weekend. We had our families up for the whole weekend and we had such a great time and they couldn't say enough about the Bethel Inn. We would highly recommend the Bethel Inn for a wedding, beautiful location for your rehearsal dinner, wedding ceremony and reception. Our ceremony was on the golf course with the White Mountains in the background and it made an absolutely gorgeous setting!
We look forward to going back and spending our one year anniversary there!
The Bethel Inn was a gorgeous setting for our special day! Tammy was so helpful with every aspect of helping us with planning and the staff was very accomodating with our requests. It was a perfect day and we got many compliments on how smooth everything went! We would recommend The Bethel Inn to all couples!
The team at the Bethel Inn were so amazing. We were married at The Bethel Inn on 11/11/17 and did a whole wedding weekend with our family and friends. Our guests still tell us a year later that our wedding was such a wonderful time. The wedding coordinator gave me all the tools I needed to get things planned, and the entire event went out without a hitch. Tammy knows weddings, she made sure everything was planned and perfect even though her daughter was getting married the very same day . She also has a list of excellent vendors (I cannot recommend Savage Photography or Dionne Entertainment enough) and will go above and beyond to get you any special request you may need. If you are looking for a wonderful, affordable venue in New England, then take a look at The Bethel Inn.
Our mid-September wedding at the Inn was fantastic! The weather was surprisingly warm, but sunny and beautiful with a hint of leaf color on the mountains in the background for our ceremony on the green. Tammy made planning venue-related things totally effortless, and it was such a relief to have her around for day-of help I didn't know I'd need! She even snuck some leftovers into the wedding suite for us at the end of the night, which was very much appreciated. Our guests loved the dinner (especially the stuffed sole!), and the variety of whoopie pies from Carri were delicious.
The majority of our guests came from far away and stayed the weekend. Not one of them had any negative experiences with their rooms, and found the staff friendly and helpful. And they couldn't get enough of the included breakfast! I would definitely recommend the Inn for a western Maine wedding.
I'll start out by saying the Bethel Inn is an amazing venue! It was like our own personal wedding village! Tammy was fantastic, the staff was amazing and the grounds are beautiful! I highly recommend checking the property out around Christmas - you'll fall head over heels in love with it!
I held my rehearsal dinner and guest accommodations and after wedding party at the Bethel Inn and very glad I did. The accommodating staff at the Bethel Inn made my wedding weekend very carefree and special. The group coordinators , reception, dinning staff, housekeeping, bartenders all really went above and beyond to accommodate my group and I would highly recommend using the Bethel Inn for your next event.
The Bethel Inn captured the complete package for our wedding weekend. We all had the opportunity to park our cars on Friday and enter full relaxation mode. Tammy James sets the scene with her incredibly calm demeanor and ability to make it all come together. We felt welcomed by all resort staff and felt like we were able to completely take over. With a beautiful setting and romance in the air we could not have asked for a better venue! -Shelby & BJ
Our wedding was very memorable thanks to the staff and ownership at the Bethel Inn.
A year later our guest still talk about how it was a wedding worth going to. They talk about what a great venue, how enjoyable the setting and activities were and how the event was laid out as we moved through the day without being bored or stressed. The only thing almost always mentioned was how good the food was.
But this is not the end of the story. For our 1st anniversary we returned to the Bethel Inn due to how they served us with planning and hosting the wedding.
Once again they were more accommodating than expected and priced within our budget.
Thank you Tammy James and please thank all the staff as we look forward to returning each year and more if we can fit it into our busy schedules.
I strongly recommend the Bethel Inn. We looked at 25 - 30 venues. We had a smaller than average budget. Once we met with Tammy and worked out what we thought would be everything we wanted and on our budget, then the Bethel Inn staff went to work and the value just kept going up from there. They did not need to provide any more than originally agreed upon and they certainly did not need to do it for the same price, but they kept on working with us until our wedding was much more than our guest expected and it is an event we are very proud off.

My fall wedding was amazing at the bethel inn! Everything went as planned and having a wedding coordinator was the best thing I could do.
Great venue with everything you could need right on site
Old country inn feel! Very different than a typical wedding venue space.
