Such a beautiful venue! If you are looking for a modern and contemporary venue with access to ocean front for portraits, this is a must visit! Transportation nearby to shuttle guests to and from the many nearby lodging options as well. Thank you for hosting such a beautiful wedding!

What an amazing venue for events less than 100 people. The venue director, Alaina was so amazing to work with and it's truly SO beautiful!!

★★★★★ — Laila, Aug 2024

We photographed a wedding editorial at Halo at the Point and it was a beautiful spot. So conveniently located to everything Portland, Maine has to offer and the property itself is so gorgeous you don't even have to leave for portraits!

Getting married at Halo at the Point

Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
