Our official attire is cocktail attire. We recommend guys wear a blazer, button down, and slacks. We recommend ladies wear a nice dress or a nice blouse and slacks combo. At the end of the day, we're just happy to see everyone so wear whatever makes you comfortable.
Because our venue is in the middle of Baltimore, the building itself does not have parking. However, there is plenty of street parking available as well as several parking lots less than a quarter mile away. Any guests that might have trouble walking can be dropped off at the venue entrance. Check out details about the parking situation on the "Travel" page.
The venue is a little difficult to find and there is no parking at the venue. We have a list of close parking in our travel section if you would like suggestions on where to park. We are planning at beginning the processional at 11:30 on the dot. We recommenced taking all of those things into consideration when deciding how you will travel and when you should get there. If you are driving yourself, plan to be to the venue half an hour early so that you have ample time to find parking, get back to the venue, and find your seat. For everyone else, we recommend arriving 15-20 minutes early to account for possible travel delays and to allow yourself time to relax before the ceremony.
We purposely selected hotels within a mile and a half of the venue to ensure that they would be within a reasonable walking distance. However, if you prefer to travel by car there is plenty of parking near the venue (although the venue itself does not have parking). There should also be plenty of taxis, Ubers, and Lyfts around if you prefer to travel by car without driving yourself.
One of the things we love about Chase Court is that it's a beautiful, secluded venue right in the middle of the city. However, we understand it's difficult to spot off of the street. There will be appropriate signage day of to help you find your way.
Both of us have always wanted an outdoor wedding, so the ceremony will be outdoors if the weather permits. There's always the possibility for us to move the ceremony inside, but we wanted to make use of the beautiful garden setting that Chase Court has to offer.
We'll have an open bar with beer, wine, and a small liquor selection.
The St. Patricks day parade occurring in downtown Baltimore will not have any effect on our wedding. The parade starts after the ceremony is to begin, and it will end before the reception ends. There should not be any major impact on parking or traffic, but plan accordingly just in case.
