Perfect day!
My now husband and I could not have been happier with Herrington on the Bay. We started planning our October 2020 wedding around July of 2019- even from the beginning the staff was helpful, responsive, and made the process easy and stress free. My biggest compliment to HOTB is how they managed the ever changing Covid climate and regulations- their adaptability sets them a part from the rest. Our day was absolutely amazing- the venue is beautiful and I will definitely be recommending to others!

I will come back for our 1 year anniversary
I have had a pleasure working with such enthusiastic and professional staff, Ally and Mary, and other staff on the day of the wedding. The staff was accommodating with pleasant service on our wedding day where the rain-interrupted a small portion of our ceremony. I am so happy we chose this.

Best.day.ever.
We fell in love with Herrington on the Bay from the moment we stepped foot on their beautiful property. Rewind to 2 years ago, we just happened to have one of our first dates at Ketch 22, which lead to us wandering around the beautiful property and absolutely falling in love with the beautiful views, perfectly manicured gardens and sunsets to die for. Once we got engaged on July 3, 2019, we knew that Herrington on the Bay would be top on our list of places to look at for hosting our wedding. Our dream date of July 3, 2020 was still available but sadly the coronavirus pandemic changed absolutely everything. We were like many other couples that were forced to put our wedding plans on hold until it was safe to host an event again. To our delight, about a month before July 3,2020, Herrington on the Bay reopened for small intimate “minimonies” and we were able to get married in an intimate ceremony and celebration for 7 people on our perfect day.

Big kudos to the entire team at Herrington on the Bay, Laura in Event Sales is so extremely responsive, professional, kind and answers every possible question that you could come up with. She is an absolute delight to work with. Mary and Ryan in Events were there to make sure that absolute every single detail was taken care of and did it with grace and poise, even on a hot summer day. Ryan went above and beyond by staying with us the entire ceremony to make sure everyone was happy, had plenty of cool water and towels and even helped take some pictures of the entire group. Best part of the entire experience is that we are booked for July 2021 for a ring ceremony and grand celebration, where we will be able to have our entire family and friends join us in the place that we fell in love with and got married at this year. We can hardly wait!
