The winter season is Maine’s best-kept secret, and an incredibly romantic time to wed (so much so that French Point’s owner chose February for her own nuptials). Guests can cozy up and sleigh rides and snowman-making contests, and enjoy cross-country ski and snow shoes outings in neighboring Sandy Point State Park. An outdoors wedding ceremony can be warm and intimate with the help of patio heaters, coffee stations and gifts of lap blankets and hand warmers distributed to guests, before dinner service in the conservatory, with walls of windows to frame frosty views to be enjoyed in comfort from in front of roaring fire place.
