The Wedding Website of Charley Meeks and Sam Crystle
Welcome to the tiny town of Marion Station, Maryland! Marion Station, also known as Marion, is an unincorporated community in Somerset County, Maryland. It is located at the northern intersection of Maryland routes 413 and 667. After the arrival of the Pennsylvania Railroad arm known as the "Eastern Shore Railroad" toward Crisfield in 1866, Marion was locally hailed as the "strawberry capital of the world". After the trains stopped coming it went into decline, with some sources even hailing it as a ghost town. Today, the town relies heavily on the fishing industry. The wedding venue, Kingsbay Mansion, is a gated, Georgian waterfront estate located on the peninsula of Coulbourn Creek at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay just north of Crisfield, Maryland. It is the largest private home in Somerset County and was designed by Ian McCallum, the architect for Colonial Williamsburg. It was built in 1970 in the middle of 500 acres of prime Maryland farmland. Below you'll find lodging options!
