A Perfect Wedding Experience at the Baltimore Marriott Waterfront

We had our wedding at the Baltimore Marriott Waterfront, and from the moment we toured the space we knew instantly this was the place for us. The entire experience exceeded every expectation we had.

The rooms were absolutely beautiful, and our guests could not stop talking about how comfortable and well-kept everything was. The food was incredible, truly some of the best we have ever had at a wedding, and the bar staff and catering team absolutely knocked it out of the park.

Leading up to the wedding, the event managers were fantastic. They were quick to respond, incredibly helpful, and answered every question with confidence and care. I never once had to chase anyone down or follow up. They were always one step ahead.

Everyone we interacted with was professional, kind, and had such a great attitude. We felt supported the entire way through, and it made our day even more special.

We are so grateful to the team at the Baltimore Marriott Waterfront for giving us such a perfect wedding experience. Highly recommend!

Perfect Wedding Weekend


The event Space at the Marriott Waterfront Hotel is stunning.
The guest hotel rooms are terrific; large, comfortable, clean and the views from the rooms are breathtaking.
The hotel location is fantastic. Baltimore Harbor East is close to Baltimore attractions, has amazing restaurants, and the walks along the Inner Harbor are wonderful.

All the staff was wonderful.
Jocelyn was our Event Manager. She was responsive, organized, professional and helped make the entire process of planning a wedding as stress free as possible. From the second we signed the event contract to the actual day of the event, Jocelyn made sure that every detail was perfect and that everything ran smoothly. Her advice was appreciated.

The food was amazing. We had 164 guests and 164 compliments about the meals.
The chef was attentive to special dietary needs( food allergies, vegan), which was greatly appreciated.

The ballroom was absolutely stunning. The tables beautifully set, the dance floor large enough for our guests to enjoy, and the meal service was phenomenal.

Overall, our wedding event at The Marriott Waterfront Hotel was perfect.
Thank you to all the staff for their expertise, help, guidance and professionalism.

I highly recommend getting ready in the hospitality suite!

We did not get married at the Baltimore Marriott Waterfront, but we used it as our getting ready hotel and it was perfect! The hospitality suite was amazing for getting ready. It has huge windows looking out over the water, a nice kitchen and sitting area, and lots of space. I had 7 bridesmaids, plus other visitors throughout the weekend, and we had so much room. It is also a really nice place for pictures. I highly recommend getting ready in the hospitality suite!

We had a room block here for our wedding. Our event manager Jenna B. took care of all of our needs! All of my guests who stayed here loved the hotel. The staff is friendly, the rooms have a beautiful view of the harbor, and it's in a great location. I was able to get ready here with my wedding party in a spacious suite. It was so easy to walk to nearby Whole Foods for breakfast and snacks. The hotel surprised my husband and I with a bottle of prosecco and strawberries after our wedding. I can't recommend this hotel enough!

The Marriott Waterfront was the perfect venue for our wedding! Our wedding coordinator, Angie Irwin, was outstanding! She went about and beyond to make sure everything was perfect and our day was everything we wanted! I can not say enough good things about her! The venue was beautiful! Our cocktail hour overlooking the Inner Harbor set such a magical atmosphere! The venue space was perfect, tables were beautifully decorated and the room was spacious for our 173 guests! The food was delicious and staff paid such attention to detail and making sure everyone was happy! We were in good hands!
The Marriott Waterfront made wedding planning stress free and fun! I would highly recommend this venue!

Marriott did an incredible job. The coordinator Justine took care of everything. The hotel was so accommodating and the food was delicious. I felt like I did not have to worry about anything. Every staff member I came in contact with was kind and fun to be around. The man, Wayne, who assisted in moving our luggage in and out of our hotel room was honestly incredible. He was funny and patient. The hotel was even able to update me from a bridal suite to the Roosevelt Suite. I do not have one bad word to say about the Marriott. I would recommend this location to anyone contemplating venues for their wedding.

Of the downtown hotels, we opted for the Baltimore Marriott Waterfront for our wedding. And we have no regrets. Unlike some nearby hotels, which have a very business/institutional feel, the Marriott was warm and welcoming for all events linked to the wedding. We also were fortunate to have excellent hotel support from the planning through execution phases of our wedding-related events. With very few hiccups (those linked to the reservations side of the house -- not event/banquet services-- we were able to plan an entire weekend with the hotel as the focus, for our guests. Food selections were lovely and very well-priced for white glove service. Even the morning after brunch was excellent. We could not have been more pleased with the quality of food, service and staff professionalism. Even the hospitality suite and major quests' rooms received special attention from the hotel. Stephanie DeGrazia, our event manager, was patient, responsive and truly a pleasure to work with. One often hears about the chaos of wedding planning, With Stephanie's support, we had a calm, smoothly executed and incredibly successful weekend.

The Baltimore Marriott Waterfront put on a perfect wedding weekend! My husband and I wanted a place where all of our guests could spend the night so they didn't have to worry about driving. From our first planning meeting, our contact, Stephanie, made sure everything was perfect. The venue, food, and service were all wonderful. I would recommend to any bride looking for a gorgeous, all-inclusive venue overlooking the Baltimore Inner Harbor!

AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING. That is all I can say. Christine Humphreys was instrumental in helping to plan and execute my dream day. She was one of the best parts of my wedding at the Marriott. She is sweet, professional, extremely hard working and soo talented!! I regret having a wedding planner as she made sure everything was done and done perfectly and my planner was totally useless (will leave that review on another page). The grounds and accommodations were so beautiful. My guests were awed by the hospitality of the staff and the professionalism of every Marriott employee. I am so happy to have had my wedding here. Additionally, Chef Santosh was AMAZING. He customized our menu to my family's background, learning and executing new recipes flawlessly. There is nothing this man cannot do. Thank you Baltimore Marriott Waterfront, you made my day more special than I could've ever dreamed!

PERFECT for an Indian wedding. We got married here on 3/30/13 and the venue was the best we could have asked for. I was so reluctant to get married in Baltimore (being from DC and all), but for an Indian Wedding with 450 guests you cannot beat it. It is so spacious, perfect for an outdoor baraat, and there is a fantastic Indian chef.

The staff (Samantha, and really everyone) are AMAZING and so pleasant to work with. They will exceed your expectations.

The only thing I would change is the carpet, but hey, not everything is perfect!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
