The grounds are stunning, with various places around the site for ceremonies, photo ops, celebrations, preparation, and beyond. The staff was fantastic to work with. Donna was so kind and flexible, and Terry, our coordinator, was on top of every detail. She helped us make the day exactly what we wanted, and was accommodating to any request to help us customize our multi-cultural wedding day. We chose to have our dinner/reception in the stable, which created the exact cozy and intimate vibe we were going for. Communication was efficient and thorough.

Maryland National was the PERFECT venue for our wedding! From the very beginning, Reghan and the whole team were incredible. Reghan went above and beyond to help us plan everything – she was so easy to work with and always had the best recommendations. I loved how easy it was to communicate with her through email. We got married at our church, but had the reception at Maryland National. They even let us use the club to get ready since our church didn't have a space! The girls got ready upstairs, and the guys used the locker rooms, which was amazing for getting-ready photos. Plus, the food was delicious! What we loved most was that we didn't have to set up or clean up anything – Maryland National took care of it all. We didn't even have to take decorations home the night of the wedding! We could pick them up the next day. It was the most perfect day, and we can't thank Reghan and the staff enough. Seriously, if you're looking for an amazing venue, this is it!

Cloverdale Barn is a fantastic venue! We got married there just over a year ago and still have the most vivid memories of the day, the surroundings and all the love we felt that day!! The people of Cloverdale Barn helped with that is so many ways. Claire is the one who I (bride) was in contact with throughout the whole process and she is so heartwarming and comforting! Very easy to work with and she makes you feel like family! From all the prep work, all the up to the last moment when we left the property through the sparkler line, Claire was there. They have several options to help you customize your event the way you want and Claire was open to the variations. We of course used it for our wedding and having the bridal suite on site was an added bonus for my day. I really liked how on the day of our wedding Claire added some pops of color to match our wedding colors with flowers in the outside flowers pots and table clothes on the bridal suite tables. She really does take the time to make your day feel extra special and I will forever be grateful to her and remember that day!!
