10/10 Wedding with the Vandiver

The Vandiver Inn exceeded my expectations in every way. Most of our guests traveled from out of state and it was excellent for them to have the opportunity to all stay together at the Vandiver. Bobbie and Bri were so accommodating and took great care of our family and friends. The venue itself is beautiful. Liz took care of everything. I can’t recommend choosing the Vandiver enough because of how much you get for the price. The food is top notch and all the set up and take down is done for you. It makes for a stress free wedding. There is nowhere else I would even think of choosing. Also, Havre de Grace is a quaint town for those that have not been there. Our out of town guests loved it
