“TLDR: If you're on a super tight timeline (we had four months!!!!) and looking for a venue that does it all and THEN some for a really great price, this is the place for you!! I SWEAR. I literally had zero stress in any of the big decisions because they did it all for us! In-house catering with amazing food (guests raved about it during and after wedding), setup and cleanup without you needing to worry, in-house bartending, three different wedding package tiers to fit your budget, and the dreamiest venue site with history (dates back to 1850). My biggest stress was finding the right decor and my dress! Huge huge shout out to coordinatorsMeaghan and Brandi, who were the best with easy, quick and constant communication, and made sorting the details really fun. --- More details: We were planning a wedding in four months, as my husband is active duty in the navy and was set to leave in late July. We toured the venue days after finding it, and booked a date day-of after our tour. All we needed to do was pick what food we wanted (they were able to accomadate us doing a tasting on the weekend because military schedules are tough), what beverage package we wanted, and any add-ons. Throughout the four months, Meaghan was so easy to make changes and update our estimates as we wanted to add on or remove things. On the day of the wedding, I handed over a list of details on how to decorate the reception area and Meaghan, Brandi and staff did NOT disappoint. It was absolutely PERFECT. They were there to help my poor best friend's boyfriend MC the wedding with tips on what to say. Meaghan had a ceremony script on-hand when the officiant didn't have one (and showed up late; she was ready to officiate for us if she needed). They even kept the dance floor open for a few extra songs as T and I didn't get a chance to dance pretty much after our first dance and parent dances (we were pulled every which way). And when it came to tearing down after the fact, everything was boxed up and ready to go by the end of the night. I could write so much more, I literally love them so much for everything they did for us. Milton Ridge was absolutely perfect.”

5.0

Baltimore, MD
  • Up to 64 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $4,000

The cultural heart of Baltimore beats loudly at Hotel Indigo® Baltimore Downtown. Our neighborhood is a hub of Charm City history and arts, and our upscale boutique hotel reflects the area's vibrancy with every detail. While there are many things to do in Baltimore, there are also a great number of discoveries to make right here in our hotel. Relax with a book (by hometown author Edgar Allan Poe, perhaps) from our hotel library, and sleep under a literary-themed mural in your guest room. Sip on some of the best craft cocktails in our hotel restaurant, Poets Modern Cocktails & Eats. Sample the honey produced at the hotel by our three honey bee colonies, which can be viewed from our fourth-floor guest rooms. And visit with our canine greeter, Xander, a Blue Brindle Cane Corso who invites you and your own pups to stay at our pet-friendly hotel, enjoy dog treats, and play at the nearby Howard Park Dog Park.

“Hotel Indigo Baltimore was the perfect venue for our wedding day. The caring and attentive staff, led by Shayla and Diamond, made us feel comfortable every step of the planning process, even as we made multiple changes to arrangements. Communication was always timely and thoughtful. The recently updated, clean, and spacious rooms provided a wonderful home base for us and our guests to relax in. The restaurant and library onsite were perfect spots to lounge with our guests as well. From start to finish, the team went above and beyond to ensure our special day felt cared for. We highly recommend Hotel Indigo Baltimore for couples looking for a flexible, accommodating venue with caring, responsive planners dedicated to making your wedding day special.”
