“We could not be happier with our choice of hosting our wedding at Maryland Golf and Country Club! From the first email inquiry, Rachel was great to work with and extremely helpful - she answered the billion questions we had and was so friendly to work with. Her staff exceeded our expectations the day of - professional, kind, and made the wedding run smoothly. The banquet/ballroom had just gone through renovations before our wedding which made the space even more gorgeous and nothing can beat the view of the golf course and mountains (the balcony off of the ballroom was the perfect escape for a break)! We were lucky to have had great weather which made those outdoor pictures on the course so special. They also hosted our rehearsal dinner the night before - food for both nights was great.

“We got married at Bel Air Armory and had a really positive experience overall. Julia was fantastic to work with throughout the planning process and kept us in the loop every step of the way. The venue itself is spacious with high ceilings, and the parking situation worked out perfectly for our guests. However, there was one frustrating limitation we wish we'd known about sooner—we weren't allowed to use cold sparklers or a fog machine, which seemed odd given how large the space is. That restriction felt like a red flag and definitely impacted the vision we had for our big moment. Despite that disappointment, the venue delivered on what it promised and we'd still recommend it to couples who don't need those specific effects.”
