Not only did they arrive hours ahead of time to setup and make sure everything would be ready in plenty of time for our guests to use upon entering our reception, but when my parents were cleaning up at the end they offered to transport our giant bar back with them to the Bangor area. Wow! Guests are still talking about how much fun they had in the "photo lounge" and thanks to Photo Booths of Maine, we received digital and hard copies of every single photo strip with messages from each guest in a gorgeous keepsake book that Kevin mailed us the day after our event! My husband had so much fun, we are already looking forward to his 40th birthday party next September so we can work with Photo Booths of Maine again. If you're looking for a hilarious and unforgettable addition to your wedding or special event, you would be lucky to work with Photo Booths of Maine - they were fantastic!

They give out complimentary blankets to go sit in the lovely park across the street while eating, which was a nice addition. It is just a stand, so make sure you're okay with eating in the park or on a bench nearby, but they make the best of it!! Love Frenchman's!

I was very pleased with how the owner of the company interacted with me when we were discussing the event and what I had in mind. My suggestions and wishes were respected and I was also offered suggestions that I had not thought of myself. I was very pleased. The quality of the food, albeit small cocktail items, was wonderful. I would strongly recommend Frenchman Bay Caterers as the Caterer of your next function, whatever that function may be.

They were kind, professional, and just really awesome to be around!! We were continuously laughing and having the time of our lives, they made everything so comfortable and easy! As a bride, stressing that everything turns out perfect is always the top of my mind. But not while working with Erica and Hillary, they put so much work into the photos I was instantly excited to see the end result... And I was right to be, my mind is blown away by the photos I have seen so far and I cannot wait to see the rest of them. They did a phenomenal job and are worth EVERY PENNY SPENT!! I highly recommend using Closer North for any event!!

Erica was great to work with over the phone- very understanding and flexible and wiling to help me make the day special! And Hilary and Ami were great onsite- they got pictures discreetly and didn't distract from the main events. They were understanding of tricky family dynamics. They were willing to battle harsh terrain and blustery winds. They were just fantastic and made it easy for us to have the shots we wanted. I love our pictures and we'll be framing a bunch of them for display all over our home!!

I was thrilled when she was available to be my photographer! I am in Mass and we were getting married in Maine and she made everything so easy. She had so many helpful documents and all the online payments were so convenient. She answered all my questions and always made me feel important. We opted out of the engagement shoot and in hind sight, I wish we did it to have even more awesome pics. On my wedding day Kate was so calm and pleasant to be around. Her and her second shooter, who is her mom (so cute!), were like photo ninjas and other than the formal picture times I barely noticed them. Yet, they captured everything! The pics were fun and candid. She also has an amazing way of capturing colors. My pictures represent my wedding day perfectly. The blog with sneak peaks were up in less than 2 weeks and the flash drive was at my house in about 3 weeks. So fast and efficient. The packaging the flash drive came in was so cute too! She thought of everything. Working with Kate feels like working with a friend and anyone will be lucky to choose her for their wedding.

On the big day she did a great job of capturing all those important details. It's amazing because you don't even realize she is right there shooting you in the most emotional moments until you see your pictures. From the very beginning I was so impressed with her fast responses to e-mail and phone calls. But I was in shock to find that she had edited all our photos with the first 10 days of our wedding... it was magical being able to flip through them all while we were on our honeymoon. She was very helpful with giving vendor suggestions etc. She was an absolute pleasure to work with! My friends loved my pictures so much that they have hired her for their Boston wedding. Hoping to be able to hire her again in the future. Highly recommend Kate to others!! You will not be disappointed.

Well located next Highway 95 just south of Bangor. We were very happy as the beds are very…read morecomfortable, the rooms were quiet and the water pressure was really good so we had a great night's rest and an enjoyable morning shower. For a hotel complimentary premade breakfast, theirs was excellent and one of the best we'd ever had. Lots of bacon. They had a very cool touchless pancake maker. Cons: The décor is very dated - we stayed on the 3rd floor that was decorated with a long row of first lady photos along both sides of the corridor hall - honestly it felt like something out of the Shining. There were odd sinks in the hallway near the elevator. The ice machine on the 1st floor was great but the ice machine on the 3rd floor didn't work and on the 2nd floor did not produce a lot of ice. The spa is tiny and no children allowed and the swimming pool is not connected to the hotel but in the parking lot. We wish they'd start the breakfast at 6am on weekends - we had an adventure planned so we had to leave at 7am when the breakfast just opened so we missed that morning. Keep perspective - this is not a posh modern hotel. Once you get used to its oddness, the hotel is a good, more affordable place for a good night's rest. We needed a hotel in Bangor ME for Labor Day Weekend - we checked the major chain hotels and the prices were all super expensive as it looks like they doubled their prices for the holiday weekend. Best Western White House Inn was the most affordable of what we could find. We noticed when we google mapped the hotel location, it was listed in Hampden ME as they are closer to Hampden but the Bangor address must be more desirable.
