My husband and I got married at Tops'l Farm on August of 2024 and we cannot recommend the venue enough! The food, drinks, accommodations, staff, scenery, and hospitality were all superb. We had about 150 guests coming in from all over the country, and everyone had the most amazing time.
Food: The food at Tops'l is SPECTACULAR. Tops'l catered both our rehearsal dinner and wedding, so I was exposed to a wide range of their work, and all I can say is... their chef, Bonnie, and her team are experts at crafting local, seasonal, delicious meals. Because of the size of our party, we chose to do family style plating for our reception, and it was such a hit with our guests. I was worried that family style would lead to some people not getting enough food, but the opposite was true. There was more than enough food to go around. They are also SO accommodating to allergies and dietary restrictions. I'm gluten free and Tops'l made sure I was able to taste and experience everything.
Accommodation: We took over the full property and it felt like summer camp in the best way. Our friends who stayed in the A-frame cabins had so much fun and were super comfortable (even in a rainstorm!). My husband and I stayed in the Cottage which was incredibly cute but also very spacious, and our friends took over the Farmhouse and Cider House. It was so fun to have our favorite people onsite with us, and across the board, everyone had a wonderful time!
Working with Tops'l: The people who work at Tops'l really made the experience so special. I was lucky enough to get to know much of their staff, and every single person I worked with was kind, thoughtful, and supportive. We had to make some last minute rain plans the week of the wedding (every bride's nightmare), and I felt instantly at ease once I got on the phone with Tops'l. They helped us figure out a plan B, and really rallied the troops to ensure we had the best weekend. Like any small (ish) wedding venue, they are still working out some of the kinks in the planning process, but everything ended up coming together beautifully.
If you're looking for a Maine venue that feels authentic but not kitschy, elevated but not overly formal, warm, inviting, and beautiful, look no further!!
