A Union Bluff Celebration
Our oceanfront weddings are able to accommodate up to 200 wedding guests with a professional custom dance floor. The Union Bluff Meeting House boasts a classic, warm neutral interior décor that is sure to enhance any theme. The ballroom will "wow" you with its 12 foot ceilings detailed with crown molding, tray lighting and custom-made chandeliers and Chiavari chairs. Our double-sided bar opens onto our patio facing the waterfront so your guests have an amazing view during the cocktail hour and beyond.
Enjoy our Gathering Room where you can spend some time with your close friends and family prior to the start of your event. Our Event Coordinator’s services are included with your booking. They will meet with you at various times to ensure all details of your special event are addressed. For even more privacy and exclusivity, you have the option to claim the building for your event! Reserve eight beautifully appointed hotel rooms above with access to and from the function hall.

Meet the Union Bluff Hotel and Meeting House Event Staff

Darlene Yankura Director of Events
Originally from upstate NY, I have vacationed in York Beach every year since birth, so this town holds some amazing memories for me, and is definitely my happy place and home! I graduated from Rensselaer (RPI) with a major in business management and a minor in marketing. I moved to York in 1997 and have been working for the Bluff ever since. Upon my insistence that this town needed a function hall, the owners finally gave in and let me create the Meeting House. We opened it in 2007. It has been a dream come true, and I am proud to have been able to make such a change in this town. I love being able to help create so many new memories for my couples and for others! I love the anticipation of a wedding day and the satisfaction of knowing I did all I could to make it perfect! I am definitely a type A personality and carry that into work more than home. This makes my boss very happy, and my man not so much…lol! Though I was lucky and found a guy that doesn’t mind picking up the slack at home…phew!
Likes: Ice cream, Louis Vuitton, Coconut flavored anything
Downtime Fun: Vacations, sailing, beach time, family time
Motto: “Life’s journey is not to arrive safely at the grave in a well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting “Holy Cow…. what a ride!!””

Amy Sallese Event Coordinator
Hello! I’m Amy Sallese, one of the Event Coordinators here at the Union Bluff Meeting House. I started working here about five years ago. After graduating from Saint Anselm College, I moved back home to Watertown, MA and started working for a company in Woburn. I worked there for two years and just never felt passionate about my work. After much soul-searching, I decided to quit my job and move to Portsmouth, NH…. And what an amazing and life changing decision that was! Soon after my move, I started working at the Meeting House and I am absolutely loving every minute of it! Living in Portsmouth and working in York is the best of both worlds!
Likes: Dogs, sushi, chocolate ice cream, dogs, red wine, traveling, boats, and oh, did I mention dogs?
Downtime fun: hanging with friends and family, going out to dinner, spending time with my adorable nephews and niece, snowboarding, catching up on the latest episode of Below Deck, attempting to walk my adorably fresh dog, Gus, and sitting on the beach (weather permitting).
Motto: “If you love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life”

Kelsey Hannon Event Coordinator
Hi all! I’m Kelsey and I’m one of the Event Coordinators at the Union Bluff Meeting House! I’ve spent every summer since I was born on the coast of Southern Maine and my family relocated here full time from Newton, Massachusetts about 10 years ago. I knew from a young age that I loved all things events—there was no holiday or occasion too small to throw a party for and I still stand by that today. What started as an obsession with a Barbie wedding chapel playset turned into a tween religiously reading The Knot magazine (who doesn’t love a pretty dress?) which, thankfully, turned into a career where I get to help make a dream day a reality!
Likes: Live music, Real Housewives of any city, the Boston Red Sox and cheesecake
Downtime fun: If I’m not spending time with my Puerto Rican rescue dog, Lola, you can find me wandering the nearest Target aimlessly, cooking a meal for family dinner night, or sitting on a patio drinking Rosé with friends.
Motto: Treat people with kindness
