The Advantages of a Blank Slate Maine Wedding Venue


With all of the beautiful choices you will have when searching for the perfect Maine wedding venue, why not let your imagination run wild and choose a blank slate venue.  A blank slate venue simply means, everything you will need for your wedding will be brought on site from outside vendors.

I know that may sound daunting at first, but look at it as an opportunity to get those creative juices flowing!  With a blank slate barn venue, such as William Allen Farm, you can enjoy the best of both worlds, a covered, indoor space that flows naturally to wide open spaces, a pond and lovely perennial gardens.

A blank slate barn venue will offer you the freedom to completely build from the ground up your perfect day.  A day which will truly reflect your own style and vision.  A day in which you can show your family and friends just how special this new beginning really is by adding your own touches and personality through design and décor.

For a classic feel, you may choose gold chiavari chairs and your tables draped in elegant linens.  You will have the ability to think outside the box and bring your colors into your table scape with your linen choices.  You don’t have to settle for white!  Maybe you even opt to drape the beams in the barn for a dramatic effect.  Or add floral rings around our lovely chandeliers.

For a more rustic feel, you envision cross back chairs and farm tables with a family style dinner for your guests. 

Maybe you would like to add some bistro lighting in the barn as well for a nice soft glow in the barn as the sun goes down and the dancing begins!

Whether you want a laid back lobster bake or the traditional plated dinner for your guests, donuts or classic cake for dessert, the choice is yours.  The possibilities are endless!

Don’t be intimidated by a blank slate venue, look at it is an opportunity to show your creativity by working with the space and its natural surroundings.  We would love the opportunity to show you all the endless opportunities you will have here at the
William Allen Farm to really put your own mark on your wedding day!
