What We Love About Migis Lodge as a Wedding Venue
Josie and I love the effortless blend of natural beauty and classic New England charm that Migis Lodge offers. Set on the shores of Sebago Lake, this venue gives us the perfect mix of stunning waterfront views, lush forest backdrops, and warm, rustic elegance—a dream for both photography and film. The Main Lodge, with its timber beams, stone fireplace, and soft, glowing light, creates an inviting space that feels both intimate and refined. We especially love how the lakefront ceremony site offers a sweeping, unobstructed view of the water, making every moment feel cinematic. Topping it off with a boat ride after your ceremony solidifies Migis as a lakefront paradise.
Migis Lodge is the kind of place where everything just flows. The exclusivity of the property means couples and their guests can truly settle in, relax, and be present, which translates into candid, emotional, and deeply personal moments that we love to capture. And from a practical standpoint? The staff is phenomenal—attentive, organized, and always making sure the day runs seamlessly.
Why Couples Love Migis Lodge for their Wedding
A Private, Weekend-Long Celebration
Migis Lodge isn’t just a wedding venue—it’s a full experience. With exclusive use of the property, couples get to turn their wedding into a full weekend getaway with their closest friends and family. Guests can settle in, unplug, and truly enjoy every moment without feeling rushed.
Unbeatable Lakeside Setting
The views at Migis Lodge are nothing short of spectacular. Saying “I do” with Sebago Lake as your backdrop, arriving at your ceremony by boat, and capturing golden hour portraits by the water? It doesn’t get more picturesque than this. Every part of the property is a dream for photography and film.
Refined Yet Relaxed Atmosphere
Migis Lodge strikes the perfect balance between polished and laid-back. It has the warmth of a Maine lakeside retreat with the elevated service and attention to detail of a high-end wedding venue. Couples love how the space feels intimate, natural, and inviting while still being effortlessly elegant. It feels like a summer camp with your closest friends and family; campfires by the lake, lawn games as the sun goes down, and quiet nights under the stars. Migis is the perfect weekend-long destination.
Seamless Guest Experience
Since the lodge offers accommodations for guests, no one has to worry about driving or logistics. Everything—ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and even late-night lakeside bonfires—happens in one stunning location. It’s the kind of wedding where guests can fully relax and soak in the experience.
Exceptional Service from Start to Finish
The team at Migis Lodge is top-tier. From planning details to executing a flawless wedding day, they make sure everything runs smoothly so couples can focus on what matters—celebrating. Their hospitality and attention to detail are a huge reason why so many couples rave about their experience.
Our Favorite Venue Feature
The seclusion of Migis Lodge is hard to beat. While the wedding that Josie and I photographed and filmed had to move their ceremony up by the lodge because of rain, the ceremony space by the lake is beautiful, as well as the lawn they have for tented receptions outside. With weddings only sitting on the fringe months, the weather hopefully won’t get too hot, and you’ll still be able to enjoy the beautiful spring and fall months there for your Migis Lodge Wedding.

Our Favorite Wedding Planners in Maine
A wedding planner at Migis Lodge ensures the entire weekend-long celebration runs seamlessly, from guest arrivals to farewell brunch. They handle logistics like boat arrivals, weather contingencies, and vendor coordination, while also curating a design that enhances the lodge’s natural beauty. With a planner managing the timeline, transitions, and last-minute details, couples can fully enjoy their wedding without stress. At a venue as immersive as Migis, a planner isn’t just helpful—they’re essential. Here are some of our favorites:
Nicole Mower Events
Pinch Me Planning
SHE-Luxe Weddings
K. Marie Events
Kara Patten Events
Maine Seasons Events
Sunset Over the Lake
Knowing the sunset time is crucial for planning a wedding day timeline, especially at a venue like Migis Lodge, where the natural setting plays a huge role in the overall atmosphere. The golden hour—the window just before sunset—offers the most flattering, soft, and warm natural light for portraits, making it the perfect time for couple’s photos. The sun actually sets over the lake, so heading down by the Petunia Terrace is a great spot for sunset photos.
Like to Golf?
One of my (Dawson’s) favorite things to do outside of photographing and filming weddings is play golf. Migis Lodge is just minutes from one of my favorite courses in Maine, Point Sebago Golf Club. Take some time to get out and enjoy the course, whether with a large group or just the two of you for a wedding weekend date night!
THESE MEMORIES LAST A lifetime.
