Milton Ridge was an incredible place to get married! The beauty of the venue and the inclusive wedding options (i.e. catering, DJ, etc.) made this the absolute perfect place to say, "I do!" The getting ready suites were superb & made the day of preparation before the ceremony seamless. The chapel was so beautiful and such a great little spot off the side of 355. Our guests still comment on the simplicity of how we decorated the chapel, and how beautiful the white walls and natural light streaming in were during the ceremony. I was not sure how we'd get group photos on the property... and our photographers were able to use the beautiful stone and green areas within the venue to capture the most beautiful photos of the bride, groom and the wedding party! Guests are still RAVING about how convenient it was to walk up a few stairs to the cocktail hour AND into the reception. They marveled at the ease... park your car, attend the ceremony and then stay and party all night long until it's time to leave! The reception hall was beautiful; the buffet food was to die for; and Meghan and Brandi ensured that EVERY detail of our wedding day was accounted for, seamless and flowing without any hitch! I cannot recommend Milton Ridge enough! Thank you for making our wedding day the most memorable and BEST day of our lives! We owe it to this team, this venue and their support with planning our wedding every step of the way!

I found this place before even getting engaged. I always knew our wedding would to be local so this was kind of a no brainer. Once we visited, we fell in love with the barn! The esthetic and vibe was perfect, and you don't want to take from that so very little decor was needed as I really wanted to highlight the beauty of the venue. Lauren and Kara were WONDERFUL! I could not have asked for a better team to take care of us for our wedding day. From ensuring that I wasn't stressed, and that everything I needed was taken care of was perfect. They have a curated listed for vendors so if you aren't sure where to start highly recommend looking through their list. I also had family coming from out of town, so there was a AirBnB that they host so my whole family was also able to stay at a gorgeous home close by instead of a hotel. Everyone enjoyed how close it was to the venue and really loved being able to spend more time together. I can easily say, Lauren and Kara are a team to beat! They know all the answers to your questions, and if they don't they will figure it out for you. They really made our big day feel like one of the best, and somehow everything went perfectly thanks to them! I will forever be thankful for their help and for being such a big part of our day.

Caboose Farm was the perfect venue for my daughter’s wedding! The communication with Colby was great throughout the entire planning process. He was so responsive to all of our questions and went above and beyond to ensure her special day was everything my daughter dreamed of. The venue itself is unbelievably beautiful - from the rustic barn to the stunning outdoor spaces, there were so many gorgeous options for photos. When rain was called for on her wedding day, Colby even set up an additional indoor location in the barn just in case we needed it, though thankfully the rain held off. I can't speak highly enough about our experience at Caboose Farm. Working with Colby and the team there was amazing, and we are thrilled with how everything turned out. If you're looking for a truly special wedding venue, I highly recommend Caboose Farm!

Our wedding was held at Castle Farms August 2025. It is the most beautiful venue with 10/10 service from DJ, food and photography.! All services met my expectations and I feel that all vendors went above and beyond to meet our expectations. One of the things that I love the most was that the day of the wedding the owner checked on us several times throughout the day and was, along with her staff, on site throughout the ceremony and reception to ensure everything went smoothly. We cannot say enough about the high-quality service, vendors, and overall experience that we had. Would highly recommend.! We are so pleased with their service that we are actually considering a one year anniversary party at Castle Farms!

The moment we first toured The Hummingbird Chateau we fell in love and knew this was where we were meant to get married. Working with Angela and the owners were amazing. Went above and beyond and made our vision come to life with the expansive decor they offer and her creative eye! I can’t recommend them enough! Beautifully unique venue, stunning decor to choose from their vast inventory, the eclectic colorful farmhouse has an amazing photo opportunity in every nook and cranny! The bridal suite is gorgeous and relaxing and the grooms area was spectacular. I could go on and on raving about everything this venue offers. We were married in one of the outdoor locations by the greenhouse and it was perfect (the rain plan ceremony spot was a stunning back up option-so many great areas to choose from).

The moment I saw Bohemia Overlook, I knew it was the Wedding venue for us. The Venue is affordable and offers a good amount of accommodations that other venues do not and would cost extra even. The little things do matter, it adds up as we all know. The Venue kept in great contact with me and responded to me right away with questions I had through the whole experience and worked with me. Such a beautiful Venue. Was nervous when I found out a new owner took over, but realized quickly I didn’t need to be. The new owners kept up with the same pace of communication and response time and even on our Wedding day they greeted us and made sure everything was going good. We even got a beautiful view of the water on the hill for some wedding photos. My Wife and I enjoy coming here for different events and the wine room when it’s open. This place will forever be a cherished memory and not everyone can say that they can go back to where they got married. So much more to say about this place, but without going on a rant, just know this place is amazing. To even include how beautiful the barn looks upstairs at night, wasn’t expecting that since we usually see it during the day.

I have nothing but incredible things to say about Dulany's! The owner and staff are all wonderful people and were so easy to work with, the venue is spacious and gorgeous, and the mountainous backdrop for our ceremony was more beautiful than I had even hoped for. Some huge selling points for us for the venue were it being pet friendly (this was a non-negotiable), including a day-of wedding coordinator (shout out Tammy!!), having a lot of freedom with the vendors we selected, a huge area for both the bridal party and groomsmen to hang out/get ready, an arch ready to be decorated, easy parking, and a golf cart for getting my elderly relatives around. It was truly a dream wedding and venue and I would recommend it to ANYONE!

Zigbone Farm was the spiritual heart of our wedding. As soon as we booked this venue, everything flowed from there. Schedule, design and theme, decisions about other vendors and guest list — everything else became easier because this venue provided such a gorgeously strong anchor point in the middle of our special celebration. What more can you ask for? Every single vendor commented on the uncommon beauty and peace of this venue. We loved having our welcome dinner here on Friday night and having a local vendor make pizza in the cob oven. On Saturday when it rained, we didn’t have to worry because we knew the lodge house would beautifully accommodate our guests for cocktail hour and that the pavilion and event hall would be fine if the rain didn’t stop (it did, and we got a double rainbow!). On Sunday, we hosted a beautiful farewell breakfast. It was so wonderful to be able to have so many friends stay on site with us, and to have some space from them in the bridal suite. Not having to leave the property once during the entire weekend was such a blessing and kept things from feeling too busy or crazy. Marijke was our main contact and she was so quick to respond to any questions we had and really fun to interact with. She clearly loves this place and has a deep enthusiasm for the couples who celebrate there. Our guests who stayed on site felt so spoiled and kept remarking on how relaxed they felt, that it felt like a true retreat for them even amid a busy schedule of events. We really hope to return to Zigbone for a reunion one day, what a special sacred place. I cannot recommend it enough to any couple marrying. Especially as a queer couple, we felt deeply affirmed, safe and celebrated here. Thank you Marijke and Dena!!

If you are looking for an outdoor / garden wedding venue, I highly recommend Prosperity Mansion & Farm. It offers stunning scenery and affordable prices that will fit your budget. There is a charming, vintage bridal cottage and a mancave that brides and grooms can use and enjoy while getting ready separately for the day. I especially love the ceremony area; there are these gorgeous Egyptian doors the bride walks through to walk down the aisle. These types of doors are rare for an outdoor space. The tent for the reception is beautiful and has a unique brick patio area. But I think my favorite part about this venue is all the different little areas on the property, including the gaming area and a bird sanctuary that are so unique. There is a formal garden, a game area, a swing, and even a firepit for making smores. There are just so many places to take beautiful pictures, which I think is important to capture on such an important day. You can really get so much on your wedding day for such reasonable prices. Finally, Debbie the owner, really works with you in many ways.

We couldn't be happier with our wedding at Yorkie Acres, it was everything we had dreamed of for our special day. Here are our top five favorite things about our experience: 1) The owners Jason and Alea were absolutely amazing to work with and it felt more like we were making a new set of friends rather than working with a business. 2) The highland cattle! Not only did they provide a beautiful addition to photos, our guests loved interacting with them. The number of times at the wedding, and since, that attendees have remarked about the cattle are too many to count. 3) The location can't be beat. It is only 20 minutes from the resort area around Deep Creek Lake, 10 minutes from a major highway, and 30 minutes from Morgantown, WV. It's location allowed us to have the intimate experience we sought, while still having easy access to lodging, recreation, and vendors for the wedding. 4) The yurt and tiny container house. They are both perfectly set-up for a couple to have everything they need for a comfortable stay. My husband and I stayed in the yurt on our wedding night and were not disappointed. And a bonus of the tiny container house is it has a composting toilet and sink. This may not seem that exciting, but as a bride in a large wedding gown not having to use the porta potty cannot be over stated. :) 5) The photos. Because of the natural beauty of the area, farm animals, historic barn, and flower gardens every single photo that was taken had an amazing backdrop. From the professional photos to the ones snapped by a cell phone we have yet to find one that isn't perfect. If you are looking for a place to have a rustic farm wedding, don't look any further Yorkie Acres is the venue for you.

Mardela Springs, MD
  • Up to 100 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $3,000

Wildflower Estate is where luxury meets love. Offering both venue-only and all-inclusive packages, our Maryland Eastern Shore estate pairs chic design with lush landscapes. Whether you want a fully planned wedding or the freedom to craft your own, we provide the perfect backdrop for a celebration that’s effortlessly stylish and uniquely yours.

Why you'll love this venue

  • Versatile for various event styles
  • Multiple event spaces
  • Full catering menu to choose from

Venue considerations

  • Not for you if you're looking for a sleek and contemporary space
  • Not for you if you are looking for something nontraditional
  • No on-site guest accommodations
We chose Wildflower Estates as our wedding venue and opted for the Bridal Boutique all-inclusive package since we planned our wedding in less than four months. For a short timeline, the all-inclusive option definitely helped simplify planning and reduce stress. The venue itself is a beautiful modern barn style with several ceremony site options and lovely scenery that makes for a great backdrop. They do offer a backup plan for rain or high winds, which is appreciated, but it’s not ideal for larger weddings (over 40 guests), they move it inside and can only provide seating for about 35 guests so that’s something couples may want to think through. There were several highlights to our experience. Our planner/coordinator (Eventfully Yours) was wonderful. Angie & Kristen were organized, kind, and supportive. The photographer turned out to be amazing and captured our day beautifully. We didn’t know who our florist would be until the day of so I wasn’t able to find or look at a portfolio beforehand, which was nerve-wracking, but thankfully they exceeded expectations. The bartender, Cory also stood out; as the bride and groom, we never had an empty drink. He paid attention to us all night and made sure we were taken care of first, which we really appreciated. There are also some things future couples should know. There is no food tasting beforehand. The cocktail hour food was great, but the main course was disappointing. There is also only one cake/dessert vendor option, which limits personalization. Vendor flexibility is something we wish had been stronger. In hindsight, we might have preferred choosing vendors individually or having multiple vendor options to choose from within the package. Our DJ unfortunately did not meet expectations. The bridal suite is very nice, but for the price point it would be helpful to have a space for the men to get ready onsite as well. A steamer available for day-of use would also be a thoughtful addition. One of the biggest stress points was invoicing for the bar/alcohol. Due to a billing oversight on their end, they were trying to collect payment the morning of our wedding while I was getting ready. That felt inconsiderate and added unnecessary stress to an already busy day. While the package is all-inclusive, there are still behind-the-scenes logistics, and I didn’t feel it should have been my responsibility to stay on top of their billing timeline. Overall, Wildflower Estates provides a beautiful setting and a convenient planning option, especially for couples on a shorter timeline. With better vendor options, clearer billing processes, and a few added amenities, the experience could be even stronger for future couples.

I remember when I told my friend the wedding venue I picked was a petting zoo she immediately said that’s the most iconic wedding venue ever! And it definitely lived up to it! We opted to have a farm visit so our guests could tour the farm and pet the animals before the ceremony. Almost a year later and our fiends still talk about it! There is a bridal suite in the main house, so you can get ready on site. The owners are the sweetest people. Lauren offers officiation, and she did our wedding. She has such a great personality and we were extremely pleased with her! You are allowed to choose your caterer - which was huge for us in the decision making. We held our rehearsal there the night before and was able to stay after to do some set up the night before. There is plenty of parking! Just 100% great things to be said about my experience!

We hosted our wedding reception at Rocklands Farm and I was so happy with the experience! The barn has a rustic elegant ambiance and the surrounding farm and winery is picturesque. Their “corn crib” was ideal for appetizers and a fire pit while guests arrived before being seated, and a bonfire made a great outdoor space for a November wedding. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our day was perfect. They worked seamlessly with the caterer Simply Fresh and our cake maker. Their day-of coordinator was great, keeping the timeline on schedule effortlessly. This was something I was very stressed about so having it go so smoothly was huge for me. Our photographer Jonalee Earles was able to set up lights etc. ahead of time. One unique aspect was the variety of table decor and signage provided, which I was able to look through and select ahead of time and which fit the ambiance beautifully. It looked amazing and took the pressure off us to bring our own decor. Rocklands made our wedding day truly special. I highly recommend it to any couple looking for a stress-free, gorgeous venue with great staff!
