We encourage guests to dress in black tie optional, breezy summer elegance. Long, flowy dresses or dressy outfits that will help you stay comfortable in the warm weather. For those wearing heels, please note there will be grass areas during the ceremony and cocktail hour, while the reception will take place on tile. Walking distances throughout the event are minimal. For reference, the bridal party will be dressed in light shades of blue.
Herrington on the Bay is located right on the Chesapeake Bay in North Beach, Maryland, about an hour from Washington, DC and Annapolis. For guests traveling in, the closest major airports are Reagan National Airport (DCA), Baltimore/Washington International (BWI), and Washington Dulles International (IAD). All are within about an hour to an hour and a half drive from the venue. There is plenty of on-site parking available for guests. Uber and Lyft are available, but they can be limited later in the evening, so it is a good idea to plan ahead for your ride home. Traffic can get busy on weekends, especially in the summer, so we recommend giving yourself a little extra time to arrive.
Yes, there will be transportation available for guests both before the ceremony and after the reception, with pickups from the inn and the Rod ‘N Reel. Official pickup times are still to be determined.
To keep our wedding intimate, only guests listed on your invitation can attend. If a plus one is included, it is for the person named. If they can’t make it, we ask that you don’t bring someone else. Thank you for understanding. We can’t wait to celebrate with you!
While we love your little ones, we’ve decided to make our celebration an adults-only event. This will give everyone a chance to relax, mingle, and enjoy the evening. We hope you understand and can still join us for a fun and memorable celebration
