    An experience to remember! Brittany is truly one of a kind!

    Our wedding experience with the Hayfields Country Club was one to remember, and there are truly no words to describe our gratitude to Brittany. Her flexibility and expertise in venue management as well as hosting weddings is truly one of a kind. She alleviated so much stress throughout the entire wedding planning process because she was so accessible, thorough, organized, and involved. At times I had to remind myself she was the venue manager not the wedding planner 😊 The venue itself is absolutely remarkable and accommodating regardless of the weather, building renovations, and golf course construction. Despite all these curve balls, our wedding day was stress-free and exceeded our expectations. Due to weather, we had our entire wedding inside. Everything was executed beautifully and flawlessly. Brittany and the entire Hayfields team were so attentive, and the service was top notch. Highly recommend!

    Stress free

    Hayfields, specifically Brittany, provided us with so much guidance and support, she’s truly incredible. She provided us with several vendor recommendations that ended up being our favorite.

    It was beautiful, and we had the wedding of our dreams (also everybody still talks about the amazing food). Worth every penny.

    A luxury experience! Brittany is outstanding!

    WOW, where do I begin?! I have a full rundown for all the brides looking to book their wedding at Hayfields Country Club, but let me start here 10/10 EXPERIENCE!!! Look no further! Let me break it down for you...
    STELLAR VENUE EVENT MANAGER - BRITTANY <3
    I am a wedding planner myself with my own business, so being the bride and wedding planner I can confidently say that I was able to take off the "wedding planner hat" and allow myself to be a bride. I was only able to do that BECAUSE of Brittany!! Brittany is fabulous, she will go above and beyond for you, and she knows her s***!!!! Anytime you sit down with Brittany, she will come to the table with ideas and solutions, making the whole experience feel custom. As a professional in the industry, I can assure you that Brittany is the best it gets. You will be able to fully trust her, build a friendship with her, your vendors will love her because she is so organized and proactive, and you can enjoy your day knowing you are in great hands.
    TOP NOTCH FOOD AND BEVERAGE
    All of our guests RAVED about the food and cocktails! To be totally honest, I was a little nervous prior to the tasting because I had not tried the food yet - but I can assure you that the chef at Hayfields is awesome. Brittany even suggested a custom summer salad that was one of my favorite parts of the menu! Some more of our favorites were the bacon wrapped scallops, the crab dip, the steak and cake entree (with old bay aioli!!) the sundae bar....
    For our signature cocktails, my husband chose a standard old fashion, but I was in between an espresso martini and a watermelon margarita. There was an upcharge for the watermelon but it is SOOO worth it! All of our guests were drinking it. We also had "The Normand" which was a mocktail named after our golden retriever. Brittany was so helpful in creating these recipes!
    CUSTOMIZED SET UP
    What I love about Hayfields is the ability to customize the space according to your needs. Side note, the venue has just freshly renovated some parts of their space - a fresh dance floor, beautiful new carpets and banquet chairs, freshly painted walls, a fully renovated bridal suite.... We got married outside, with cocktail hour on the terrace, and reception inside. I recommend utilizing the inside house area for cocktail hour instead of the terrace - it has a historical charm that is unmatched! Hayfields provides all of the basic rental needs, unless you want to outsource for specialty flatware/chargers/lounge seating - which is what we did and it really elevated the tablescape!
    Thank you, Hayfields team, for giving Matt & I such a seamless experience. Future brides & grooms, don't hesitate and book your venue now!
    Love, The Dumonts!

    Fantastic!

    Brittany at Hayfields was absolutely terrific to work with. She helped us to make our dream wedding happen. She was very responsive and accommodating. She helped in any way that she could. Very polite. I can’t say enough great things about her!

    Hayfields Country Club's reply:

    Thank you so much Danielle! I always strive to make sure that your expectations are met for your big day! I am so happy to have played a part in making your dream wedding come to life! That is one of the many things I love about what I do, is getting to know the Bride and Groom and their families, and getting to know yours was a great pleasure :) I hope you had an amazing time in Hawaii!

    Excellent Venue, Excellent Service!

    We booked Hayfields at the last minute after our original venue cancelled on us just months before our wedding day. We were initially panicked at needing to replan at the last minute, but our Hayfields wedding ended up being more beautiful than we could have hoped. Brittany (the event manager) was exceedingly attentive and responsive over both email and phone, no matter how busy she was, and met with us several times to help us customize the food, the ceremony and reception setup, and even the drinks – she worked with the bar manager to help us create a signature cocktail with house made lemonade and a flavored simple syrup that was tailored to our tastes exactly (several guests asked us afterwards for the recipe!). The grounds are so beautifully maintained that we did not need any additional decorations for the ceremony, and so many guests commented on how gorgeous the space was. We were so impressed by how friendly and flexible the entire Hayfields team was, and highly recommend Hayfields to anyone looking for a venue space.

    Hayfields Country Club's reply:

    Hi Emily!
    Thank you so much for your kind words! We were truly honored to be part of your special day! It is always a pleasure to help customize our wedding packages so that the bride and groom get the day that they have been dreaming of! Everyone could tell the love that you and Andrew have for each other is something special. Sending all of our best well wishes!

    Perfect day

    I just got married at Hayfields April 9th, it was the most perfect day! Had both ceremony and reception on site. I worked with event manager Brittany Dietrich, she was awesome the whole way thru. You can tell she just wasnt being nice but really loved her job. I have heard horror stories of wedding day mishaps but I had none. Brittany and staff were amazing, super easy to work with, extremely pleasant and attentive to our needs the whole day. They helped our day go smoothly and come to be everything that I imagined. They even said they enjoyed working our event and had a good time. The ground are beautiful for pictures! I would highly recommend. Oh and the food, exceptional, chef's kiss!

    Hayfields Country Club's reply:

    Thank you so much, Christin! It was such an honor being part of your and Kameron's wedding day! You are right, we really do love our jobs here, and it is getting to witness the love that the couple has for one another that feeds that love. We are so glad that you and your guests enjoyed themselves! We hope we get the opportunity to welcome you back one day!
    All of our best wishes from Hayfields!

    Hayfields was the perfect location to have our ceremony and reception.

    Elisabeth was absolutely a pleasure to work with and was always responsive to my many questions and concerns as we navigated through Covid to make this happen. The grounds of the venue is so incredibly beautiful and the food was delicious! Couldn’t have picked a more beautiful location.

The day of the event their team was ready early and prepared to assist with any last minute issues that arose.

    Beautiful Landscape and Elegant Setting

    I booked Hayfields for my wedding and I couldn't have been any happier with the decision. I was becoming very frustrated with venue searching as all of the venues in the area wanted to charge almost double to do a Saturday wedding or had minimum requirements. When I found Hayfields I fell in love! The scenery is gorgeous, the space was perfect, the food was delicious and they were very helpful and accommodating. Their prices were very affordable and fair. They made adjustments for me on request without added costs. My day was amazing! The only thing I might add as a suggestion to future brides is that the chairs are very noticeable so I bought chair covers. Otherwise I loved the space! All of my guests commented on the outside space and how pretty the venue was. I only wish that they had a build in option to add on extra time. The venue came with 5 hours which is more than most other venues but I wish I could have added on an extra hour or 2. The night fly's by so fast and I just wish I had more time.

    Perfect all around

    Hayfields was an amazing venue- not only was it gorgeous, but the staff was friendly, helpful and accommodating at all times! I can't say enough wonderful things about Mary B, who was our primary point of contact. The food was amazing, the staff the day of was friendly and efficient and overall was very reasonably priced. Couldn't be happier- even though it rained, I would still say it was the perfect day!

    Hayfields Country Club's reply:

    Kelli, it was such a pleasure working with you and Joe. You and your mom did a fantastic job decorating too. What a beautiful December wedding. Even with the rain, it was a perfect day! Best of luck! MaryB

    Hayfields is the best!

    Hayfields was such an amazing venue- we were looking for an indoor-outdoor venue with beautiful views/nature and one that was also lovely inside. Hayfields fit all of these and so much more! Guests loved the outdoor patio for the cocktail hour- they even have a bocce court not too far from the ballroom! The happy hour foods were delicious. Dinner was also excellent.
    Mary B is absolutely amazing- she is the nicest and she gets so excited for your big day- she helped make the process leading up to the wedding as well as being the day of coordinator go smoothly. She let us decorate the ballroom and helped out too- she went above and beyond! It helped calm my mom's nerves knowing that she was there because we knew she could handle any issues that could arise.
    The venue also has a wonderful rainy day back-up plan- cocktail hour in the historic mansion is also a lovely setting. Having an awesome rain back-up plan made one less thing for us to worry about.
    Parking is easy- cars can be left overnight and there's a free shuttle from the Hunt Valley hotels to the venue. I think we had close to the maximum number of guests allowed and we didn't feel overcrowded at all.

    Hayfields Country Club's reply:

    Mary B,

    Thank you! It was such a pleasure to be a part of yours and Jay's big day! I enjoyed working with you, your mom and your dad. All of your hard work and visions of how your day would go, came together beautifully. It was also great that we both have the same name; Mary B. :)

    Most Amazingly Beautiful Venue

    Perfect venue for an outdoor/indoor wedding! We had our ceremony and cocktail hour outside and it was absolutely beautiful. The team we worked with was professional and cared so much about making our day special. Mary is wonderful and helped every step of the way. The ballroom sat our 110 guests perfectly. I wish I could do it all over again!

    Hayfields Country Club's reply:

    Sarah, you were a beautiful bride. It was such a pleasure working with you and your mom. The vision you had for your day turned out beautifully. Much happiness to you and Tyler.
    Best,
    MaryB

    As Mother of the Bride, I can’t say enough about MaryB, Celeste and the entire Hayfields team! Hayfields is a beautiful venue, both inside and out. Our daughter chose to get ready on-site and the photographer and videographer couldn’t say enough about all the options open for photos! Leading up to the big day, MaryB and Celeste were most attentive. They quickly answered every question and were always available to assist. The reception ran smoothly and the food was excellent!! Our guests raved about how good everything was and how the service was top notch! Choose Hayfields - you won’t be disappointed!

    Hayfields Country Club's reply:

    Thank you for your kind words Johanna. It was such a pleasure working with you. Adrienne and Joe are perfect together. We have seen a few pictures of their day on Instagram and cannot wait to see the rest of them.
    Best wishes,
    MaryB, Celeste & the Hayfields team

    Absolutely Beautiful!

    We were in excellent hands with Hayfield's. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, the food was delicious, and the grounds and venue itself are beautiful. Our coordinator Mary was extremely kind and helpful throughout the entire process - she treated our wedding as if it were her very own. Our wedding day was made even more special by choosing Hayfield's.

    Hayfields Country Club

    Everything was perfect. Venue was gorgeous, food was outstanding. My daughter wanted an outdoor ceremony on their beautiful patio. Suddenly, just before the ceremony was to start, an unexpected rain storm rolled in. Hayfields was amazing. They were ready to move the ceremony inside but my daughter really wanted it outside so they agreed to postpone everything for 30 minutes (including the reception start/end time. The sun came out, a crew quickly dried off all the chairs, and my daughter had her dream wedding. Brittany was wonderful;. The support she provided is just too comprehensive to list here.

    Our wedding day was absolutely perfect! The entire wedding planning process was less stressful due to the flexibility, responsiveness, and knowledge of the staff at Hayfields. Our wedding was a month ago and we are still getting compliments about the delicious food, beautiful venue, and attentive staff. I would 100% recommend Hayfields to others and wish I could relive my special day!

    We hosted our daughter's wedding in June 2018 at Hayfields. The grounds and historical buildings are absolutely beautiful and made for such a gorgeous setting for the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. We simply can't say enough wonderful things about the event staff - MaryB and Janine are incredible! MaryB was always very responsive to emails and calls, and so accommodating in every single way - a true professional who made things so simple for us. Most importantly, she is a genuinely kind and caring person who strives to make the day perfect for the bride and groom. Janine - the head wait staff went over and above to make sure that each guest felt special and welcome at the reception - her service was amazing. Chef Mike is a talented chef and the food was delicious! I highly recommend Hayfields, not only because of the beautiful venue, but most importantly for the talented and caring staff that are mentioned above. The day was perfection.

    Hayfields Country Club's reply:

    Teri,
    It was such a pleasure working with you. Kathryn and Rob's day was beautiful. The weather cooperated as we were hoping it would. ;-) Their pictures turned out fantastic too. My favorite is the one where Rob is dipping Kathryn and the pool is in the background. Here's to many years of happiness.
    Cheers,
    MaryB

    I wanted to thank you on behalf of MedStar Union Memorial Hospital General Surgery Residency Program to let you know the wonderful time we had at our Annual General Surgery Residency Graduation Dinner on June 22, 2018.
    Mary, from the moment you introduced yourself to me on Friday, and told me this experience was going to be different from last year, I couldn’t help but to believe you, because you had a way of putting one at ease, and I knew that it was going to be accurate this time.
    From the start, you saw my vision with the room and it was absolutely executed to the upmost. So many people were impressed on how well the “Movie” them played out. I know some people are a little (OCD) when it comes to their events and that would be me; but you took the programs I had for the Hayfield Staff and explained the symbols for the food selections and the servers carried out their duties seamlessly.
    I’d be amiss if I didn’t extend my appreciation to Janine too. Please let her know that she went above and beyond herself to help us set up and used her “designer eye” and made sure the centerpieces looked beautiful.

    Mary, again, from the time I walked in until the end of the evening, I felt like we were old friends and I’ve known you for years and our event was a “family affair" that’s pretty amazing and so are you!!

    I look forward to working with you next year. Please let me know if I can share this review to let everyone know what a great experience I had at Hayfields Country Club.

    I had an amazing experience with MaryB and Hayfields as my venue! MaryB was extremely helpful and always so attentive and responsive to emails and the many questions and requests that I had. She was extremely accommodating and just so pure and incredible to work with. Such a gem of a personality, I felt so lucky to have worked with her. Hayfields provided an incredible venue for my wedding. The day was absolutely beautiful and ran so smoothly. The food was SPECTACULAR and many of my guests were blown away by the selection - especially the crab cakes! I 100% recommend this venue!

    We had our daughters wedding reception at Hayfields and we were beyond pleased with everything they provided for us. Jim Krystkiewicz was so easy to work with, he met all our needs and wants and was physically present throughout the entire reception to make sure everything ran smoothly. He told me he would handle everything and to enjoy the moment. I trusted him and he delivered. The wait staff were all hard working, pleasant and professional. The food was hot and delicious. We did rent our own chairs and napkins due to personal choice. I have only high regards for Hayfield.

    Our wedding coordinator Courtney went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day was incredible and exactly what we wanted! We had many special request and she and the Hayfields staff were all amazing at accomadating. Our reception was set up beautifully, more than I could have ever wanted or imagined. The food was incredible, people were going around to other tables to see if they had finished their meals so that they could get seconds! Robin was our "personal waiter", he was awesome and very attentive, anything we needed he would have to us before we even asked! My new husband and I along with our parents could not be more pleased with how everything turned out at the reception! There were a few hiccups but, nothing that any other wedding wouldn't have however, the staff at Hayfields was very responsive and willing to do whatever was neccessary to make sure everyone was happy! I was and still am completely over the moon with how everything turned out and I would absolutley reccommend Hayfields Country Club to any couple looking for a place to host their wedding/reception.
