Banquet Hall Wedding Venues in Baltimore

Shannon absolutely wonderful to work with! From the moment we began working with her she brought such a cheerful and calming energy. She was organized, attentive, and always one step ahead—making sure every detail was taken care of without us having to worry about a thing. Thanks to her, everything ran smoothly from start to finish, and we were able to truly enjoy the day with our guests. She was friendly, professional, and such a pleasure to work with—we couldn’t have asked for a better gal to help make our day to special at CBF.

We picked this venue for the picturesque ceremony views and to avoid decision fatigue from going a more DIY route. Celebrations at the Bay was a lovely all-inclusive choice. They have killer views and good flow from space to space. Our guests enjoyed being able to hang out on the pier when they needed fresh air. The caterers were willing to create passed hors d'oeuvres that gave a nod to our cultural background and the food and cake was delicious on the day. They were also on point with all our guest’s dietary restrictions. We didn't need many decor choices either, as the venue is beautiful and they have some standard decor options for the reception.

We had Kris help run the show for our wedding this past weekend. She went out of her way to make sure everything was how we wanted. She asked all the right questions and I’ve had nothing but compliments from my friends and family about her and her work. She is very personable, very prompt and she did an absolutely amazing show. This is the best event option for a wedding! Several in attendance said this was the best wedding that they had ever been too. You do not need to be a graduate or military. Do yourself a favor and grab this venue!

We had both our ceremony and reception at Guilford Hall in May 2025. It was perhaps the best wedding-related decision we made and we are so glad we did! The staff are so kind, accommodating and responsive. Even the head chef and the bartenders made special accommodations to our very particular menu and drink selections. The attention to detail and incorporation of our every preference cannot be understated. The Events Coordination team went above and beyond to make our vision a reality. The biergarten was perfect for our ceremony (although if you are having more than 110 guests, it might be a tight squeeze). The Cigar Room makes for a *stunning* photo backdrop and the patio was perfect for a fun, laid back cocktail hour where our guests could mingle around, sit at picnic tables and take pictures. There are so many great spots for photos we didn't need to import a cheesy photo wall or selfie station. But the real highlight is the reception in the Crown Hall. It was the perfect size for our party. We had a DJ, but if you want to bring a band into that room, you should consider having fewer than 10-12 tables otherwise there just simply isn’t room. The food and beverage selection for the dinner was top-notch, and if they don’t have something you want, they will order it. My husband wanted a very curated bourbon selection, and they managed to get every bottle he wanted (for an additional price). Our only critique is that we noticed long lines for the bar during cocktail hour and reception. So if you have big drinkers in your crowd, ask for an additional bar set up somewhere to expedite beverage delivery. I also highly recommend paying extra for a lighting company to put fabric and lights up otherwise the main focal point wall is just a blank grey square. We went with 27 Studios – one of many preferred vendors of Guilford that gave us a discount because they do so much business at that venue. We also had our DJ set up pin lights around the room for additional ambiance once the sun set (also an added fee). If industrial chic is your vibe, then BOOK THIS VENUE YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT. It’s so customizable and you can go all out or keep it simple or anywhere in between. Either way, these people work hard to make sure you have the best day ever!!!

Waters Edge Event Center was the perfect place to spend the day of our dreams. They provided us with an all around great experience!

I can't recommend this venue enough. It's absolutely stunning, sitting right on the Chesapeake Bay, with spectacular views and sunsets. The team at Silver Swan Bayside, specifically Nina and Amanda, were so helpful throughout the process leading up to the day and the day of. They have a google doc spreadsheet that tracks everything you need to focus on for the day which was extremely helpful and they were always able to answer any questions I had over email. The day went so smoothly and the team was beyond helpful and accommodating. 100% recommend this venue!

We absolutely loved La Banque de Fleuve for our intimate, winter wedding. We utilized the historic bank venue for both ceremony and reception, and it was absolutely gorgeous. The venue already had some holiday decor set-up on our wedding day, and it was enhanced the beauty of this venue. The historic bank vault was such a neat touch and our guests commented on it. We worked with Ariana as our venue coordinator, and I cannot say enough good things about her - she was super communicative during the planning process, responded to all my questions promptly, and even delayed setting up their Christmas tree in our reception area to ensure we had adequate space for our guests. She was so easy to work with and made the experience so much easier for us. I'd highly recommend this venue for anyone looking for an intimate space.

We had our wedding at Soaring Timbers on June 3 of this year. Karma, Ray and crew were absolutely wonderful and easy to work with. The venue was perfect for our ideas and the staff made it the perfect place for our wedding. We received many compliments throughout the event on how beautiful the venue was. We couldn't be more thrilled. Highly recommend this venue for anyone in the Annapolis area. We couldn't be more grateful.

As a casual wedding this was the perfect venue. The food was spectacular. Paul went above and beyond to make sure my day was perfect. Also very affordable, for any kind of event.

From start to finish, this waterfront wedding venue was an absolute dream come true. Every single detail was thoughtfully executed, and every vision I had for my wedding was not only understood but beautifully brought to life. The setting itself is breathtaking, but what truly sets this venue apart is the staff. They were attentive, professional, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. A special shoutout to Breanna, our coordinator, who was nothing short of phenomenal. Her organization, calm presence, and dedication made the entire planning process seamless and stress-free. Knowing we were the very first wedding event held here made the experience even more special—and you would never have known it was their first, given how flawlessly everything was handled. If you’re looking for the perfect waterfront venue that values excellence, attention to detail, and truly exceptional service, this is the place. Our wedding day exceeded every expectation, and we are forever grateful.
