Fall in love with the historic William Paca House and Garden--the quintessential backdrop to your dream wedding, located in the heart of Annapolis!

Exchange vows in the garden and then celeberate on our two tented terraces with the historic home of one of our nation's founders in the background. Recognized as a National Historic Landmark, the William Paca House & Garden is an impeccably reconstructed 18th-century Georgian-style residence.

Immerse yourself in the charm of the two-acre reconstructed 18th-century garden and create enduring memories for your wedding! The garden boasts a Chippendale-style bridge spanning a goldfish-shaped pond, four formal garden parterres, a wilderness garden, and a meticulously recreated Summerhouse. The Summerhouse, serves as a captivating focal point, offers a picturesque setting for wedding ceremonies and photographs.

Available for events from April through October, the garden and tented terraces can host up to 120 guests seated for dinner or up to 180 for a cocktail-style reception (standing with limited seating). Typically scheduled between 4:00 pm and 9:00 pm, the events can be tailored to your needs, with flexibility in discussing hours beyond public visiting times.
