We originally wanted to get married in DC because that’s where we met and live, but after months of searching for a venue, we weren’t able to find what we were looking for. We extended our search into Maryland and one weekend decided to check out the Frederick wedding expo. We went to the first couple of stops, though, again, they were not what we were looking for, but then we went to the third stop, walked through the doors of Union Mills, stood on the landing, looked at each other, and said "This is it." The venue was absolutely stunning (those chandeliers!) It was perfect and EXACTLY what we’d been looking for. Not only was the venue incredible, but working with Niko and Mary was truly a joy. You can tell that they are passionate about what they do and making couple’s dreams come true. They were extremely flexible with our requests and there was never a “no, we can’t do that.” We worked together to find a solution that worked for all of us. They were transparent, everything was discussed in detail, and they both have a calm, easygoing presence in what can be a stressful process. As for the food, it was incredible! I don't know how many people told us that the lambchops were the best they ever had. Niko provided an extensive list of food options, but also allowed us to choose off-list or even bring in our own personal recipes for the chefs to recreate. The team really lets the couple showcase their creativity and add in their personal touches to make sure their wedding captures who they are. I’d also like to shoutout Ilcia for coming in early on the morning of our wedding to make a mezcal cocktail for me to try. Also, get the pizza, and it doesn’t matter what kind because it’s all amazing! Lastly, Niko and Mary were very responsive via email and text, though text was a lot easier for them when it came to quick questions. We also went back and forth on our tasting menu and final menu a few times, but Niko was patient with us and worked with us until we perfected it. All of this made the planning process less stressful and reassured us that we made the right choice in not just the venue, but catering as well. UMPH- to Niko and Mary, and all the staff behind the scenes, you gave us the wedding of our dreams. Truly an unforgettable day and that wouldn’t have been possible without every single one of you.
Exceeded our expectations

Niko & Mary were wonderful to work with. They truly made our dream wedding come to life. They were attentive - always answering our questions and making sure everything ran as smoothly as possible. Food: Booking with Union Mills gave us the freedom to create the food experience we truly wanted. We went with a Filipino-inspired menu that combined many of our favorite dishes, and Niko was incredibly knowledgeable about different cultural cuisines. He offered wonderful selections and made the process so enjoyable. The pizza options were endless and allowed us to get creative as well! Drinks: The drinks were out of this world. We loved the variety of drink and beer options they provided. We really appreciated that they went the extra mile to source specific beers we requested — even getting one of our favorites on tap just for us! Location: The location of Union Mills is unbeatable. Its walkability to downtown Frederick and nearby bars was one of the main reasons we chose it. Since many of our guests were traveling from out of state or even out of the country, we wanted them to experience the true charm of Frederick, Maryland. Union Mills offered the perfect accessibility for our guests both before and after the wedding. Parking: Mary and Niko provided detailed maps to help our guests find parking easily. There’s plenty of parking available around Union Mills, and they were able to reserve a limited number of spots for us, which was so helpful. Communication: Mary and Niko were always responsive and easy to reach, whether by text or email. From our experience, they replied very quickly via text, which was perfect for quick questions. For more detailed inquiries about logistics or planning, email communication worked great. Their responsiveness made the planning process smooth and stress-free. Suggestions: The only thing we would have appreciated was a more streamlined way to receive quotes and itemized details. One of our other vendors used an event management app called A Perfect Venue, which made tracking and organizing everything really easy. Besides that, we were completely happy with everything Union Mills had to offer! Overall, we highly recommend working with Union Mills — you won’t regret it. We had such a wonderful, unforgettable experience! Thank you for your creativity, your thoughtful menu suggestions, and for executing everything so perfectly. We still dream about the food to this day and feel so lucky to have experienced such a wonderful celebration with the two of you.

Stop looking...THIS is where you should have your wedding! We weren’t sure what vibe we wanted for our wedding at first, but the moment we walked into Union Mills, we knew it was the right choice. The venue is gorgeous, inside and out—the pictures truly speak for themselves—and it’s perfectly located: walking distance to everything Frederick has to offer, yet super convenient for guests driving in. The part that truly sold us: the food. Niko will literally make anything you want. We chose a fairly traditional dinner, but he added incredible twists that made it unforgettable, like lavender honey butter with our bread assortment, pepitas and pickled onions in our watermelon salad, and the most delicious herb-crusted potatoes (people are still raving about them) alongside our chimichurri steak. Both Mary and Niko go above and beyond to deliver exceptional service. Just a few examples: they let me store my dress in the bridal suite 48 hours before the wedding, added a non-alcoholic prosecco to our getting-ready spread when they heard two of my bridesmaids were pregnant, tracked down porters for my mother-in-law (her favorite), got my husband a special bottle of whiskey for the evening, and even fine-tuned my signature cocktail (a watermelon margarita) the very morning of the wedding to make sure it was perfect. On top of that, their staff was constantly checking on us throughout the entire night to make sure we were having the best time...and we absolutely were. We truly couldn’t recommend a better venue. Location, ambiance, food, service...Union Mills has it all. We only wish we could get married here every weekend!
Amazing Venue & Even Better People

The owners of Union Mills, Niko and Mary, are FANTASTIC human beings. They are kind, funny, and creative. They are wonderful to work with, created a beautiful venue, and serve delicious food. Their staff did a great job flipping the ceremony space into the reception space. The chandeliers in the reception area are gorgeous and the lighting in the cocktail hour space side is really cool. I highly recommend Union Mills for your next event!
