History
The history of the estate can be traced back to 1723 as a land grant. The owner's son constructed the brick mansion after his father's death in 1892. Other buildings were also built on the property, many of which are still in use today, like the Kentlands Mansion. The lands were purchased by Otis Beall Kent and given a name that still sticks to this day: Kentlands. The property underwent a massive reconstruction and restoration project in the hands of the new owner. It was expanded at one point to 1,100 acres as a gentleman's estate and wildlife sanctuary.

The Kentlands Mansion is a wonderful venue with a great staff. It's a charming place tucked away in a neighborhood in Gaithersburg.
Kentlands is one of my favorite wedding venues in the area. The building is awesome for getting ready shots, the ceremony (inside or out) and for the reception. Moreover, the grounds around Kentlands Mansion are ideal for bride and groom portraits. Everyone who works there is incredibly friendly and accommodating and will work with you to make your wedding a perfect day to remember. I have shot many weddings there and always look forward to the next one.
