History
Mt. Washington Mill was built in 1810, and is the earliest surviving cotton textile plant in Maryland. It is the third oldest water-powered cotton mill in the U.S. The Dye House started in 1850 and was operated as a cotton mill until 1923. From there, it was the headquarters of the Maryland Nut and Bolt Company until 1989.

The Most Perfect Day

Our experience working with Michele at Mt Washington Mill Dye House was nothing short of perfect. The space itself is absolutely gorgeous, inside and outside, there's not an ugly room or view.

The team of vendors that frequently work with the Dye House are true professionals, everyone we chose to work with provided just enough guidance so we felt we knew what we were doing without imposing their ideas. Sherri from Linwoods was amazing and everyone raved about the food and service!

Communication was always prompt and clear. We were given options and flexibility for indoor vs outdoor and pros and cons for each. Sadly, our outdoor ceremony didn't happen, but we had up until the afternoon of our wedding day to make that call and we are so happy with our decision, even though it wasn't what we originally imagined.

Michele also helped coordinate some rentals that we shared costs with another couple getting married the following day.

There's not a thing I would have changed about this day, and a big reason for that is the service and space at Mt. Washington Mill Dye House.

Stunning, magical venue

We loved having our wedding at the Dye House! The location is filled with so many beautiful, unique, and memorable spaces, both inside and out. This indoor-outdoor nature was important for us, as while we envisioned an outdoor wedding, we of course knew that you can never count on the weather, and we felt that an indoor wedding would not be much of a disappointment (if it rained on our wedding day, etc) at the Dye House, especially compared to some of the other places we were considering. We were lucky enough, though, to have nice weather on our wedding day, so we had our ceremony in the courtyard under that beautiful tree, with birds chirping like we were in a Disney movie. It was magical! Highly recommend!

Beautiful venue!

We used the Mt. Washington Mill Dye House for our wedding on 10/28 and had such a great experience working with the venue. We were first interested in the venue for the rustic/industrial look, but we got so much more! We worked with both Jackie and Michele, and both were so nice and helpful. We had many questions throughout the planning process, and they were always prompt to reply and offered their experience and guidance. All of our guests were impressed with the aesthetics of the venue. We would definitely recommend using the space for your wedding or other event!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
