AS YOU WALK INTO FOREVER

Today, it remains a place of timeless charm, with its centerpiece being the historic William Brown House, built in the 1760s. This beautifully preserved National Historic Landmark provides a truly unique backdrop for your celebration.

Surrounded by luscious gardens that bloom year-round, our venue seamlessly blends natural beauty with historical significance.

LOVE NOTES

"This venue truly has it all."

This venue cannot be beaten. It truly has it all... a view of the water, beautiful gardens, historic buildings, an indoor pavilion with pretty twinkly lights, and a tent also with gorgeous up lighting. There were also so many different options for how we wanted to organize the venue in our own unique way.

 

There was a view of the water during all parts of the wedding and it was GORGEOUS. Kristin is the venue coordinator and she was AMAZING. She replies to emails so quickly and is able to help you with just about any question you have. She meets with you a month out from the wedding and helps ease all your concerns about the big day. This venue is very much a “build your own adventure” kind of venue, which scared me a little, but Kristen, our day of coordinator, and the caterer worked as a team to make sure everything went perfectly! After the wedding, we rented a bus to get to downtown Annapolis for the after-party, so we also loved how close it was to DTA. Overall it was insanely beautiful, it can be customized to whatever you want, and Kristen is amazing.

 

Couldn’t have picked a better venue!!!!
