Our wedding at Running Hare Vineyard on April 27, 2019 was amazing! The venue itself is absolutely beautiful! We used the pergola to have an outdoor ceremony and then went into the Tuscan Villa to have the indoor cocktail hour/reception - we had the best of both worlds! There was enough parking for all 110 guests and even though there was another wine event at RH. The other band did not play 30 minutes before our wedding and we didn't hear a peep during or after our ceremony.
The management was great. Taylor was a joy to work with always answering questions even when she was off. She was there the day of just to make sure that everything ran smoothly. For the price you can't beat it.
The Villa was amazing to use as well. We had an 8-piece band, photo booth, cake area, and 4 food stations, 110 guests and there was plenty of room to move around.
The best part was that our dog (chocolate Lab) was allowed to be on the property at the ceremony to be the ring pup. RH worked with us to allow him to get pictures at the end as well.
The pictures were great and the entire event was amazing.
Don't hesitate to book your wedding at RH!

Running Hare Vineyard was the absolute best wedding venue for my husband and I. From the first time we visited RH we knew it was something special and not like most venues. It is beyond beautiful. The Tuscan villa is not something you would normally find in Maryland. I would definitely recommend RH. It is not only beautiful but working with Kim and Taylor was pleasant. Taylor updated you on things and was timely with emails which created less stress for myself. I would give RH and the experience of having my wedding there 10/10!

We loved our wedding at Running Hare! Taylor was amazing throughout the entire planning process by reminding us when payments or details were due and giving us plenty of time to get it to her. It took away the stress of having to remember every little detail of our contract. They were responsive and helpful from the moment we showed up for a tour. The location is beautiful and everything looked perfect on our wedding day! Taylor even got a light fixed that we noticed was broken on the evening of our rehearsal. We saved so much money on decorations because of how beautiful the location is. My only negative is that they don't give you much time to get ready in their bridal room (2 hrs prior to ceremony), so you do have to make other arrangements for that.
A newly engaged couple of mine recently booked Running Hare Vineyard for their engagement session and we were absolutely thrilled with the service we received when booking. Not only is this venue absolutely stunning, but the people there are so caring and genuinely excited for the couples who book them. I would highly recommend Running Hare!
The Running Hare Vineyard is a beautiful venue located in Southern MD. The venue has an amazing hilltop ceremony location that overlooks the vineyard. The Tuscan-styled events building is breathtaking. The high ceilings and dark woods captivate you as soon as you walk in the door! If you are looking for a romantic venue full of character, this is your location.
