Flanagan Farm

I am the owner and operator of Hager Photography and I just shot a LOVELY winter wedding at The Barn at Flanagan Farm in early December and it was magical. The venue had such a wonderful balance of rustic and modern at the same time. The couple got ready inside the clean, welcoming, NICELY LIT main house and then had a fun ceremony and reception in the barn with a tasteful, rustic charm. All staff and facilities were great. The wedding was snowy and wintery but I was able to do an engagement session with the couple in the summertime so I got to see how great the property looked in the warmer months as well. You shouldn't hesitate to consider Flanagan Farm for your Maine wedding, no matter what season.

We are so thrilled that we booked Flanagan Farm for our wedding!! Everything was absolutely beautiful and having the property from Thursday - Sunday was such a gift. We were able to relax and enjoy our wedding weekend and soak up every moment. The farmhouse was the perfect space to stay, get ready, and have a quiet moment to ourselves. We opted for a tented cocktail hour, dinner in the barn, and an after party in the cocktail barn. Everything was absolutely perfect. We highly recommend Flanagan Farm and can't wait to come back every winter for the supper series!

I've been a Maine based wedding photographer for 22 years. From a photographer’s perspective, the property is incredible — the barn is warm and timeless, the ceremony location feels peaceful and intentional, and the open field out back during golden hour produces some of the most beautiful light I see all season. Every part of the farm photographs naturally and effortlessly, which allows couples to stay present and enjoy their day without feeling rushed or over-produced. Just as important, Mike and Essie are an absolute joy to work with. They are welcoming, thoughtful, and genuinely care about their couples and vendor team. Communication is easy, timelines stay flexible, and the overall atmosphere they create makes the entire day run smoothly. That kind of support behind the scenes makes a huge difference and always shows in the photos. I’ve photographed multiple weddings here over the years, and Flanagan Farm consistently delivers an exceptional experience for couples and vendors alike. I always look forward to returning and would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone planning a Maine wedding. — Chris Bennett, Wedding Photographer

The best decision we ever made was having our wedding at Flanagan Farm. We’re lucky enough to say that it was the very first venue we saw and ultimately, nothing compared. Mike & Essie, the owners made us feel like family from the beginning, only ever offering positivity and help. They have a keen understanding of what this moment in a person’s life means and they protect that experience for their couples. Every part of the property felt like home. The grounds are impeccably cared for with a ceremony space that truly took our breath away. The barn is stunning with large comfortable restrooms, something we found was hard to come by in our search. The flow from the inside to the outside space was seamless and our guests loved the option of enjoying the wedding from either environment. The attached farmhouse is warm, comfortable, and thoughtfully maintained. Everyone who stayed slept incredibly well, which is a rare gift during a wedding weekend. Waking up to that level of calm on the wedding day set the tone for everything that followed. It is an incredible resource to a bridal party and a total game changer. Our guests were in awe from the moment they arrived. The venue truly took everyone’s breath away, not just because it’s stunning, but because every detail feels intentional and infused with warmth. It strikes a rare balance of being both elevated and genuinely comforting. They loved it like we did right away and it was incredible to watch. Flanagan Farm gave us an experience we’ll never forget. It’s a remarkable place, and we feel incredibly lucky to have been married there. If you're looking for a venue that wants to remember you as much as you'd like to remember it, get married at Flanagan Farm.

We absolutely cherished our time at Flanagan Farm!! We hosted our wedding at the Farm, and one of the most special parts was our families being able to stay in the farmhouse from Wednesday through Sunday of wedding weekend. Everything was perfect, well maintained, and wonderful. The property manager Jean was truly phenomenal, and the owners Mike and Essie are so accommodating, friendly, thoughtful, and kind. It was the icing on the cake of a perfect week + weekend! We can’t recommend the Barn at Flanagan Farm enough. The property is so lovely, the sanctuary is the perfect spot for your ceremony, and the barn is beautiful. We can’t wait to go back and celebrate more milestones there in the future!!

It's hard to explain how incredible this venue is. To start, Essie and Mike are one-of-a-kind. They're responsive, caring, thoughtful and amenable. Simply put, it's a joy to work with them and we would plan many more events at Flanagan Farm if we could. The venue itself is spectacular. Rain or shine, you will get the best of the best. Make no mistake, this is a barn venue but it is elevated elegance, and the beauty of the venue is that you can really create whatever you want with it. The two barns give space for flexibility and the lawn and orchard are beautiful and open for a tent or just for guests to gape at the beauty. One of the most unique and special aspects of Flanagan was that it allowed both of our families to stay together on the property. While this may not be everyone's first choice for their wedding weekend, we chose to bring both families (parents, siblings and their partners) together under one roof for three nights. It helped create a sense of true unity throughout the entire weekend. The night before the official celebrations began, we were able to use the gas grill on property to have a huge barbecue with everyone staying in the farmhouse, which was a great way to kick off the weekend. This aspect of the property was a huge draw for us and we did not find many others that allowed us to do that. If you have the privilege of planning your event with Mike and Essie, and at Flanagan Farm, you will not be disappointed. We hope to cross paths with them again soon!

What a beautiful venue for a wedding. I fell in love with the place the second we arrived there -- It was charming but had all the bells and whistles (like AC in the barn!) to form the makings for a picture-perfect wedding. The team at Flanagan Farm was so easy to work with and super responsive. If I had to do my wedding over again, the first thing I'd do is book Flanagan Farm again. One thing I didn't fully realize is that you have to bring everything in (silverware, tables, flowers, catering, etc.) so great for someone who wants to be hands-on or someone who has the budget to hire a full-package wedding planner. Also, we got lucky and had gorgeous September weather, but there isn't a great bad-weather-option should it rain, etc. Lastly, you can get a permit to extend the party to 1:00AM from the town of Buxton. A total game changer for those who don't want the fun to stop at 10PM like most venues!

We had our wedding here 3.5 years ago and it was magical. The space is beautiful and can truly be transformed in so many different ways into the wedding of your dreams. We wished we could have stayed longer! With the new ownership, we are excited to be able to return to the Farm for other events and reasons. Can't wait! <3

I deejayed a wedding here yesterday. The grounds are spectacular, the staff was super friendly and accommodating and overall it was a great success. I would highly recommend!

We had our wedding at the barn on November 26th. I had always dreamed of having a barn wedding and the Barn at Flanagan Farm surpassed all of my expectations. The farmhouse and barn were beautifully decorated and both Jean and Gail were so accommodating. Justin and I wouldn't have changed a single thing about our day! Thank you!

Just attended a wedding here that was outstanding. Every single bartender and server was polite, professional and attentive. The food and drinks were amazing. The vibe and decor was perfect. I was so impressed with the wedding and how the staff perfected everything!
