    10/10 would recommend!

    Dulany's Overlook is the perfect wedding venue. The owner Mark was a joy to work with. Our assigned day of coordinator Sheila was incredibly helpful. In the last few weeks before the wedding, she really helped us prepare. On the day of, she kept everything running smoothly. The scenery there is gorgeous! The barn was the perfect cocktail hour and reception setting. The string lights...loved it! We definitely recommend having your big day at Dulanys Overlook

    Amazing venue to work with!

    As a photographer, this was a beautiful venue to work at! Grounds are big for different backdrops and the scenery is amazing, especially a sunset. very helpful staff as well.

    Exceptional experience from start to finish!

    Our coordinator Sydney was a dream come true, and I can not think of a better place to have your wedding in the fall in Maryland, but at Dulany’s Overlook 🍁

    Look no further for their locally preferred vendors, all the best in the business.

    Thank you to EVERYONE involved, you all truly executed our dream in a way we never thought possible! The search is over, hurry and book your dream day at Dulany’s Overlook in Frederick, MD ♥️ 10.15.23

    Wedding experience

    This place truly holds a special spot in our hearts now. The owners are the sweetest and our coordinator made our day as perfect as it could be. They provide a vendors list which I used and loved along with a day of coordinator. They assign you a coordinator and they help in any way from advice about vendors to when you should start buying things. We also did our ceremony in their wooded area but they also offer a lawn area too which is so pretty. Along with the barn for the reception and the house to get ready. One of the reasons I also picked this place was because I knew my hubs would love the man cave too😉They offer SO much more and a special place for weddings.

    Dulany's was the perfect venue!

    I can't say enough good things about Dulany's for our June 2nd wedding! Starting the wedding venue planning process, there are so many things to think about, but Dulany's made everything SO EASY. Mark & Juanita were so engaging from the moment we stepped foot on the property for the first time, and spent so much time showing us every part of the incredible property (plus - Mark is the ONLY venue owner who asked my husband and I how we met and our engagement story. It seems small, but it really stuck with us). The 15 months leading up to the wedding, we were able to tour and visit multiple times, got incredible vendor recommendations from them, and...

    Beautiful and Handicap Accessible

    Beautiful venue. We had the perfect day and night this September. Jennifer C. was our venue coordinator and she made everything very easy for us (timeline, vendor coordination, decor set up help, etc.). The house and barn on site had a working elevator which was excellent for our mom in a wheelchair. Would recommend!

    Stunning venue!

    My partner Annie and I had our wedding at Dulany's Overlook in late November on their last wedding weekend before winter. Our experience from start to finish was incredible, and the venue had everything we needed (and then some) to make our day so special.

    We truly loved all the different areas where our guests could congregate throughout the day, from having our bridal parties and families in the beautiful colonial house getting ready and taking photos, to the ceremony on the lawn, to cocktail hour in the horse stables that have been converted into a bar, and then finally ending the night in the beautiful red barn for dinner and dancing. We even got creative with...

    We had an amazing experience with Dulanys & Kim!

    My husband and I got married at Dulanys overlook last month and we had the absolute pleasure of working with Kim! We were originally booked for October of 2020, and Mark and his team were great about working with us to find another fall Saturday in 2021 so that we could have the fall wedding we'd always hoped for. We also were planning remotely (we live in San Diego) and working with Kim gave me such comfort and confidence that every small detail would be addressed prior to our big day. Not only is Dulanys absolutely beautiful (so happy with our pics!) but they have such a solid handle on local vendors. We pretty much just followed their reccos...

    Perfectly amazing

    My daughter was married at Dulany's Overlook a few weeks ago. It was wonderful. The venue was perfect and the separate house for the wedding party to get ready in was just awesome. Most impressive was that we were assigned a coordinator, Brittany Snyder, who was over-the-top wonderful. She was there whenever we needed her. And I am not just talking about the wedding day itself. She was there to answer all of my questions long before the wedding day and is still available if needed. I was most impressed with how patient she was with me, especially since my daughter and son-in-law were the ones in charge. She also paid great attention to detail. I am one who...

    Everything was perfect from start to finish with this venue! Everyone was very responsive leading up to our wedding and I can’t recommend this venue enough. The property is absolutely STUNNING.

    The most special day, EVER!

    We shopped around at a couple different venues but feel in love when we saw and met the Dulany’s team! Our tour of the property was great, Juanita answered all of our questions and more. We were able to visit the venue two times before officially moving forward and we were so glad we did!

    For the wedding day, we had support from the day of coordinator, Lori who help us with providing venue updates during COVID and keeping everything organized for us was awesome! Lori was instrumental in ensuring everything was on time and arrived while we enjoyed our special day!

    There were so many amazing places where our photographer and videographer got awesome pictures...

    Beautiful venue, super nice people!!

    Dulany's overlook is not only a beautiful venue, but their staff was amazing and so kind in helping us navigate our pandemic wedding. They kept us updated as regularly as they could on guidelines, rules, regulations, and options for us to work with. Our original date was June 14 2020, and we postponed to June 13 2021. They were fair and helpful with allowing their couples to reschedule, and made sure to keep everyone's safety in mind the whole time. Mark, the owner, and Liz, our coordinator, were so fun and nice to work with. Our day was beautiful! I'm sure it's not easy running a wedding venue, ESPECIALLY during a pandemic, but they are doing it SO WELL!!...

    Most perfect day!

    My husband and I got married here over the weekend. This was the first venue we looked at and fell in love immediately. We looked at a few other venues but none of them gave us the same feeling that Dulany’s Overlook and the owner Mark did. From the very beginning we knew that matching sure our wedding was how we imagined was top priority. They did not disappoint at all! With Covid and all the restrictions we were updated with any changes that were made. We also had a coordinator change about 4 months before our wedding. Brittany was absolutely the greatest! She jumped right in to helping me finalize anything and answered any questions I had! The...

    Beautiful Venue and Wonderful Coordinator!

    Dulanys Overlook is beautiful! My husband and I were immediately in love with the barn there! My coordinator Beth was amazing and organized! She gave me great tips and kept a Facebook group page for her brides to follow to give them ideas and tips throughout the planning period. Mark was always responsive to any questions that I had during the pandemic about the wedding and the status of weddings. Overall, the team there is professional, responsive and puts couples at ease! I would highly recommend!

    Look no further...Dulany's is THE BEST!

    My husband and I were married at Dulany's Overlook on September 28, 2019. We had a guest count of 188 (but it could have been closer to 200) and wanted a Saturday wedding. Dulany's was actually the very first venue we visited when scouting out places for the big day. We went to venues all over Maryland and Pennsylvania, and through our research we came full circle and ended up choosing Dulany's for our wedding. You get so much for your money...a venue with a time slot that couldn't be matched by many others for the price, a wedding coordinator, the ability to choose vendors, multiple ceremony options, incredible views, and a team of people who are excited to...

    I Made The Right Choice

    I had looked at 8 or 9 venues before coming to Dulanys. The place itself is so beautiful, it doesnt need much to make to decorate. Lori was absolutely wonderful! I planned the wedding from out of state, and she made sure I was on the right track, coordinated the day of, and really made sure the day was perfect. I can't say enough about this place and I dont think my guests can either. It was soooo perfect. Definitely worth every penny

    Awesome Venue and Even Better People

    Dulany's Overlook was a dream! I absolutely love this stunning venue and all the onsite accommodations. The man cave for the guys is huge and the bridal suite is so stunning! I had my wedding on the lawn with such an amazing view and then we went over to the barn where the cocktail hour and reception is held. Everyone raved about how beautiful this venue was and I was so happy everyone loved it. My favorite part of the venue is the fact that the back wall of the barn can be slid open to reveal the most amazing view during the reception. My coordinator for my wedding was Holly. I highly recommend requesting her! She is fun...

    Dulany’s is the BEST!!!! Absolutely gorgeous!!! The owner is amazing and Holly is by far the most incredible wedding coordinator you could ever ask for!

    Worry-free Barn Wedding

    We had the best experience with Dulany's Overlook. Our wedding coordinator, Liz, took care of all the details on our wedding day. If there were any hiccups, my husband and I didn't have a clue.
    The venue was gorgeous and made for beautiful photos. My husband and our groomsmen had a blast playing pinball before the ceremony and our guests loved having cocktails and dancing in the barn. We would highly recommend Dulany's for a wedding venue.

    Absolutely Perfect

    I could not have asked for a better experience. Everyone here is super responsive. Our coordinator Missi always got back to us super fast even with all those last minute silly questions. We were being threatened with cold weather and muddiness in the lead up to the big day. They were very flexible, allowing us until 12 pm to decide if we wanted to get married outside or in the barn for a 3 pm wedding. The temperature was in the 50s and got down in to the 40s but it never felt cold in the barn for cocktail or the reception. I did not have to worry about a thing and it all went smoothly.

    Can't Recommend Dulany's Enough!

    The first time we toured Dulany’s it was still under construction. After the tour, Mark was kind enough to sit down with us and go over their plans for finishing the property so we knew exactly what we would be getting if we booked with them. As soon as we left that day, we knew Dulany’s was it for us. Not only because the grounds fit what we were looking for, but because it was obvious that the people who ran it actually cared about and were interested in the couples that booked with them. We toured 8 venues before seeing this one, and none of the others made us feel as welcome and comfortable as Mark did that...

    The pictures do not do this place justice. Go see this place. It is gorgeous. The staff is flexible, friendly, and responsive. Our venue coordinator was Lori, and she was fantastic. She answered all my questions in the months leading up to the wedding and handled all of our fires on the day. I do wish I had booked a day-of coordinator as well, just because Lori is only one person and she was busy doing venue set-up and handling vendors, and it would have been nice to have someone in the room with me to help control my crazy family and make the decisions for me. But I cannot say enough about how beautiful, elegant, and professional everything...

    The folks at Dulany's were fabulous! They were very flexible and humored all of our requests (like bringing a pony and a motorcycle as part of the event). Missi, our coordinator, was a wealth of knowledge and kept everything running smoothly. The location is beautiful, the owners have done an amazing job transforming it into the perfect wedding venue. Everything was perfect for our day, THANK YOU!

    After looking at several wedding venues, nothing was making us feel like we found a place that represented us. After meeting Mark and Juanita, and pulling up the driveway to see the farmhouse and barn at the top of the hill, we looked at each other and said, “this is the place.” While you can see for yourselves how beautiful the property is, you can’t see how the owners treat you as a client. Mark and Juanita are welcoming, warm, and beyond honest. They made sure that we had the venue set up the way we wanted and that the property was immaculate. While Mark and Juanita assign a coordinator, we highly recommend having a third-party planner, as the...
