“Lot's of natural light in the dining area, reception/dancing space is very large and well setup, and lots of patio room outside as well with a view of the ocean.”
From the reviews
I recently photographed and filmed Laura and Jack's wedding here. Very beautiful venue! Lot's of natural light in the dining area, reception/dancing space is very large and well setup, and lots of patio room outside as well with a view of the ocean. Tons of great photo opportunities for couples.
Getting married at York Harbor Reading Room
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.
