“The only better feeling than getting the most perfect result for "lobster boat elopement Maine" as a Google search is the amazing experience we had getting married with Just Banded. From our very first conversation with Ethan about our crazy idea to get married on a lobster boat and surprise our families waiting for us on the dock to celebrate what they thought would be just an engagement, he was so enthusiastic about making our dream come to life and had so many helpful suggestions. Ethan talked us through the Popham Beach area and what the day would be like and fielded our questions and less practical ideas seriously but guided us to a perfect day. Marianne the officiant truly got to know us over just a couple of phone conversations and created a beautiful ceremony that was more special than we were imagining it could be. The element that was truly the icing on the cake was the gorgeous floral arrangements that Lindsay source from her own garden. We really liked that she focuses on local and seasonal blooming plants and wholly trusted her vision. It was amazing how she transformed a working lobster boat into a place that feels like a wedding and something we didn't even realize would be so special for the day. There are so many details from both the boat trip of a lifetime and the weeks/months of planning, but the common thread throughout is how conscientious and kind the Just Banded team was and how genuinely excited they were to celebrate with us. We couldn't have imagined a better experience for our wedding day.”

“Where do I even begin? For starters, I am a wedding planner and had been engaged for almost 2 years. I wasn't 100% sure what I wanted to do but 100% knew that I wanted to elope. When I presented the idea of getting married on a boat, my fisherman husband was totally on board. Captain Ethan was hands down the best to work with, he's knowledgable and down for the adventure. He tracks the weather, chats with you about timing, and makes it very clear that this is your wedding day and he will do all that he can to make it the best day, which he does just that. Lindsay, a dream of a human and such a creative person, was able to work with me directly to design the florals just the way I wanted. Everything we picked was in season and from New England. The flowers were so fresh and held up so well all day long! We had Marianne as our officiant who is one of the best I've ever met. Her presence is calming and nurturing, she took the time to check in with us individually to see how we felt and personalize the ceremony to our story. She cares to know about your story and build your ceremony around that. All in all, the experience was the best and I truly wish I could repeat it over and over. Ethan, Lindsay, and Marianne have such a special place in our hearts and we cannot thank them enough for making our day so special.”

“You kind of know that an elopement on the waters of Maine's coast is going to be magical. But when you actually board the Miss Lindsay for a beautifully crafted experience with Captain Ethan, Marianne, and Lindsay, what you think you know about magic transforms into the felt experience of it. I can think of no better place to exchange vows with your person, and no better team to bring that magic to life. These three were a joy to work with, took the time to get to know us, communicated with us often and well, and have so much love and passion for what they do. I would absolutely recommend Just Banded to anyone looking for an incredible place and an incredible team to celebrate one of life's most joyous occasions!”
