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!

Working with the Walden Country Club was a great experience. As a planner myself, it was awesome to work with someone who understands high level event requirements. The facility was extremely easy to work with and many options were presented once the event and theme was understood. Can't wait to have other events there.

She had suggestions for other wonderful vendors to work with, to simply being a beautiful location. The Bridal Suite in the air-conditioned Barn was such a highlight to have our hair and make up done Saturday am. A plus was being so close to all major shopping areas for any last minute items needed. So glad we found Hemlock Farm!

Stevensville, MD
  • Up to 310 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor

If you’re visiting this page, chances are you’re planning the most important day of your life! First off, please accept a resounding congratulations from the entire team at Chesapeake Bay Beach Club. For over two decades, we’ve been journeying alongside couples and their families as they plan for this joyous occasion, and we’d be bluffing if we said it wasn’t our absolute favorite thing in the world! A stunning, coastal Maryland backdrop ideal for your dream wedding, we cordially invite you to plan your very special day with us at Chesapeake Bay Beach Club! With four fantastic venue options to choose from (each of which brings its own unique distinction), the custom-curated, Chesapeake Bay wedding of your dreams is within reach like never before! Select from our array of remarkable spaces as you plan not only your wedding ceremony, but also your splendid rehearsal dinner, celebratory reception, cheery bridal luncheon, and more!

We had our wedding at the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club on 7/10/22 and it was a dream. We worked with Samantha who made our process seamless. You truly do not need a wedding planner or day of coordinator when you have the CBBC team who will take care of everything the day of - from communicating with our vendors, to making sure our day ran smoothly and on time - they were all wonderful. We got married in the Tavern Ballroom and had our wedding outside on the lawn - it was beautiful. The night before our wedding, we did a small (25 ppl) rehearsal dinner at a private room at Knoxie's Table at the Inn and then did welcome drinks at the bar with all of our guests. After the wedding, we all hung around the lit fire pits in the courtyard. It was so nice that our guests were staying at the Inn on the property and that all of our activities were there so no one needed to drive or leave to go anywhere. Many of our guests made a point to tell us how much they loved it and that it was the best wedding they've ever been too (I'm telling myself they don't say that to everyone! :)) I cannot recommend CBBC & their staff enough. My only regret is that the wedding didn't last near long enough 3
