A couple at the Squire Tarbox Inn

Your Dream Wedding

The Squire Tarbox Inn is a rare hidden gem perfect for your wedding ceremony--exclusive and intimate, removed from the crowd yet easily accessible to guests. Located on Westport Island, our property expands across twelve acres of pastoral farmland and sits among heritage woods, a tranquil salt marsh, and a shimmering pond. Just one hour from the Portland airport, we are centrally located in the heart of midcoast Maine.

Spend some alone time with your partner on Thursday evening before welcoming friends and family to the inn for a wonderful wedding celebration. Your perfect day is just around the corner!

Our History

A Splendid Setting

Visualize your ceremony under our towering weeping willow, overlooking the pond on a warm, sunny day. Make your way to the back patio for cocktails, and settle down in our lovingly restored 1820s barn for dinner and dancing with loved ones.

There is beauty in simplicity, making the barn a stunning setting for an intimate weekend getaway where friends and family can gather to celebrate your love. Guests will bask in the natural light of our inviting space, surrounded by antique wood etched with history. A cozy loft on the second floor includes a large, elevated deck that overlooks the lush coastal grounds. Watch as the sun dips beneath the countryside and enjoy a peaceful ending to your perfect day.‍
