“A generation ago, it wasn’t hard for couples to figure out where to get married. The ceremony and reception were typically held close to home.
Today, couples are increasingly opting for different settings — and Maine is increasingly fitting that bill.
“I’m finding the destination market is definitely growing,” said Diane York, a wedding planner in Portland.
Of the 21 weddings she handled last year, only three were for current Maine residents, she said.”
