King’s Hill Inn & Barn

King's Hill Inn and Barn is a private estate in South Paris, Maine, in the rolling hills of the western part of the state. The property dates to 1795 and is used for weekend weddings.

Why it suits LGBTQ+ couples

King's Hill Inn and Barn is LGBTQ+-owned. For you, that means working with owners who understand a same-sex wedding. The estate is private and set up for a weekend, so you can spread a celebration over more than one day. It is a strong fit for couples who want a barn they can style themselves, with room for a garden ceremony.

Ceremonies

You have a choice of ceremony sites, including a garden with a small chapel and a wooded area. The barn balcony has views over the mountains and garden, and it makes a good place for photographs. Ask which site suits your guest count and what the rain plan is.

Receptions and food

The barn fits about 150 seated with a dance floor, and it is a blank slate for your own decor. The venue also has a 60 by 40 foot white two-peak tent. The venue offers on-site catering. Note that the barn is not heated, so it is best suited to the warm months from May to October.

Staying

The property is an inn as well as a barn. Ask how many rooms are available to the wedding group and whether a weekend booking includes them.

Getting there and the area

South Paris is in Oxford County, western Maine, about an hour from Portland. Most guests will drive. The area is hilly and rural, so share clear directions and a ride plan for the end of the night.

Good to know

Before you book, ask for the full list of what is included, the hours of access on the wedding day and the time music must stop. Written answers prevent surprises later.
