Simply the best day ever

This was a perfect venue for our daughter’s wedding. It was a unique experience to be able to offer our guests everything from a beautiful ceremony on the most picturesque deck overlooking the water to a cocktail hour in the side yard to the incredible banquet space to the truly unique and interesting and fun experience of the museum itself. We heard from so many of our guests how much they enjoyed themselves and what a great place to have a wedding! Personally, I loved that the rental fee goes completely to support the educational programs offered by AMM. And the icing on the cake, so to speak, was the fantastic support Paige provided. She was so good about communicating, answering our questions, offering helpful ideas and making sure everyone was where they needed to be at the proper time. I cannot say enough positive things about our experience there - truly a most beautiful and memorable occasion in our lives!

Perfect Wedding Weekend in Every Way!

From the moment I found AMM I knew it was our venue. You just couldn't ask for a more perfect waterfront setting and right in the heart of Annapolis! Not to mention we were able to bring our own sailboat up to the dock for the evening which was beyond special for photographs & allowing friends/family to tour the boat we'd lived & traveled on for 2 years.
We had our ceremony on the tented outdoor deck overlooking Back Creek & The Chesapeake Bay. In case of rain they offer side enclosures. Even in the heat of our July summer day there was a beautiful breeze coming off the water keeping our guests comfortable. The reception inside was the perfect space for our party. And guests loved to be able to explore the museum and the outside grounds as they pleased throughout the evening.
Paige was so helpful in making sure we had everything we needed for the day. Not to mention the venue fee is supporting such a wonderful museum!
We also enjoyed chartering their Skipjack, Wilma Lee, the afternoon before the wedding. Allowing out- of-town guests a chance to enjoy a day out on the water and see another side of Annapolis!
Cannot recommend this venue enough - beautiful space & wonderful people! Thank you Katie, Captain Bill & Paige!

Above and beyond!

We had our daughter’s wedding and reception at the Annapolis Maritime Museum—everything was beautiful (the venue practically decorated itself!), comfortable, and perfect. We hired an employee of the venue, Jenna Byrne, as our day-of coordinator—Jenna is worth her weight IN GOLD!!! I cannot say enough about her work ethic, attention to and execution of detail, responsiveness, and value. 10/10 recommend this venue AND Jenna B.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

The Annapolis Maritime Museum is an absolute treasure of a venue! You will not find a space with more character or charm when it comes creating your dream Chesapeake Bay/Annapolis-inspired wedding. Paige and all of the museum staff are so nice, welcoming and knowledgeable. They are true professionals and work to ensure every aspect of your event is perfect. When it comes to choosing a waterfront venue in or around Annapolis, it doesn’t get any better than AMM.

The Annapolis Maritime Museum is a gem of a venue! The location can't be beat in the heart of downtown Annapolis. The venue overlooks the water, had a great tented dock, a beautiful interior space, and a wonderful museum exhibit perfect for photos. Onsite there is also a bridal cottage for you to get ready in. The venue is so charming and you will have so many great photos opportunities there. The staff there is also amazing!! I can't wait to work there again soon!
