he Bay is the perfect waterfront wedding location for sure! The chef also prepared a sample spread for us, which was an unexpected surprise. Everything was delicious. Kira worked within my sister's budget to provide her with an array of options. My sister put off booking because of Covid, and then ended up doing a small ceremony, more local. However, I highly recommend Herrington if you are considering a waterfront wedding! You will not be disappointed!

I had never thought to put raspberry cheesecake in a smores until my wedding day at our interactive smores bar (!) but now I never want a regular smores again.

d it! They allowed us to have the freedom to plan out wedding. Never once did they force us into anything that fit their plan. They encouraged us to make our own mold, and do what made us! That freedom alone was amazing and they were there every step of the way to make sure we got to see what we wanted on our special day. Lexy and Ryan were helpful every step of the way! Our wedding took place during the 2020 pandemic and they made sure (that even with certain restrictions that were in place through the state) we were still able to have a beautiful and magical day. Everything about Herrington is beautiful! The staff is warm and friendly. The food is amazing! Every time we went for a planning visit the staff was incredible, and welcoming. (They even sent us home with their amazing crumb-cake!) The overall environment is amazing. Every family member and friend that came to our wedding loved the paradise ballroom and scenic views of the water. There is an elegance and beauty that the ballroom has that's indescribable until you walk in and see the chandelier lit! Once the chandelier is lit it becomes this magical awe inspiring place. If you are looking for an amazing place to get married I would recommend Herrington on the Bay tenfold! They treated us as if we were their own and I have nothing but good things to say about them!

We fell in love with Herrington on the Bay from the moment we stepped foot on their beautiful property. Rewind to 2 years ago, we just happened to have one of our first dates at Ketch 22, which lead to us wandering around the beautiful property...
and absolutely falling in love with the beautiful views, perfectly manicured gardens and sunsets to die for. Once we got engaged on July 3, 2019, we knew that Herrington on the Bay would be top on our list of places to look at for hosting our wedding. Our dream date of July 3, 2020 was still available but sadly the coronavirus pandemic changed absolutely everything. We were like many other couples that were forced to put our wedding plans on hold until it was safe to host an event again. To our delight, about a month before July 3,2020, Herrington on the Bay reopened for small intimate “minimonies” and we were able to get married in an intimate ceremony and celebration for 7 people on our perfect day. Big kudos to the entire team at Herrington on the Bay, Laura in Event Sales is so extremely responsive, professional, kind and answers every possible question that you could come up with. She is an absolute delight to work with. Mary and Ryan in Events were there to make sure that absolute every single detail was taken care of and did it with grace and poise, even on a hot summer day. Ryan went above and beyond by staying with us the entire ceremony to make sure everyone was happy, had plenty of cool water and towels and even helped take some pictures of the entire group. Best part of the entire experience is that we are booked for July 2021 for a ring ceremony and grand celebration, where we will be able to have our entire family and friends join us in the place that we fell in love with and got married at this year. We can hardly wait!

e were planning that caught up to us, but we were stunned at how gorgeous the location was, and immediately fell in love with it. We were nervous thinking we could not afford such a nice venue, but HotB offered us some very compelling incentives on their price for choosing a date only 4 months away. This worked out for us, as we both desired a short engagement. Throughout the planning process, HotB was engaged and kept track of our timelines and desires for a ceremony and reception. Day of the wedding, they did a fine job coordinating with us on decorations, timing, dinner, and cleanup. The food was delicious and the hors d’oeuvres were of a quality and taste I had not seen at previous weddings I had attended. The customer service we received during the planning stages made things less stressful for us, and the day itself went off without a hitch. Something goes wrong at every wedding, but honestly, we though ours seemed just perfect. We would recommend HotB to anyone searching for a waterfront venue. Note that HotB has 2 venue options - a large ballroom tent, and an old historic yacht club. We chose the yacht club, perfect for us, especially since we had a nautical theme.

eting with the staff. The staff is without a doubt the hardest workers, so personable, and you can tell they really want to make each and every wedding so special. From the beginning we worked with Maura who was absolutely amazing and able to help with all of our questions and needs. Maura was beyond helpful and extremely quick with getting back to me with any of my questions. We then worked with Lexy for all of our main details and questions. Lexy is probably the kindest person you will ever meet! Lexy was also extremely prompt with answering any questions and always eased any anxiety or stress I had about certain details of the wedding. I had a makeup crisis after our ceremony and Lexy quickly ran to me, asked me for the room number and address for where she could find my makeup bag, drove over there, and was back within 15 minutes to help me fix it! THANK YOU FOR THAT LEXY!!! My day of coordinator was Brittany, and even though you only work with that coordinator for a few days before the wedding and the day of day, I felt like I had known her for much longer when it came time for her to start helping out. Brittany was SO on top of everything and made everything run so smoothly. Her and Lexy together were the dream-team. Besides the amazing staff, Herrington is just stunning. I have had so many compliments from guests that it was the most beautiful wedding they had seen. Everything ran smoothly and I really felt like I had the most perfect day and wish I could relive it all over! Thank you Herrington for everything!

re site is absolutely stunning. I really wish I could post pictures from my wedding because this place really is gorgeous. My husband and I fell in love with this venue upon our first visit and our experience only became increasingly better from there. This place is truly a one stop shop. The landscaping was so beautiful I didn't need a florist, our wedding coordinator was such a super lady I didn't need a wedding planner, the price was much more reasonable compared to other locations (and they didn't offer have of the services) and they had beautiful lodging directly across from the venue (that showed free movies on the beach at night btw) so it was really simply to plan my wedding even though my guests thought I must've put a lot of thought and money into my big day! Our guests were so impressed that to this day they are still calling us to tell us how much fun they had and that our wedding was the best wedding they had ever been too! I really have to credit Ms. Brittany Bergendahl in particular. Brittany really went ABOVE AND BEYOND to make my husband, my guest and I feel like royalty. She was very knowledgeable from the planning period all the way up to my wedding day, super patient (considering my ever changing visions for my big day) and really accommodating. I honestly can't thank her enough. The Herrington on the Bay is an exquisite venue, but it will always be infinitely better than other locations because wonderful staff members like Brittany. Thank you Herrington on the Bay family!

The venue is beautiful and there are so many different places to take pictures, you will have a truly scenic wedding. I waited a bit to write this review because my husband and I loved our wedding and I wasn't quite sure what to write. We start...
ed the wedding a little over a year before the actual wedding. We had visited 5 venues before Herrington, and Herrington was the last one because it is so beautiful. The food was amazing. We started out with one planner, got so much done with her then several months later we were told she left. It wasn't a big deal, we had done so much with her that there were notes so the new planner (who was just as good) was able to take over without a hitch. I wasn't worried. We met our day of planner a couple of months later. We met with her, the meeting went well. She even told us that there wasn't another wedding that day so we can take our first look pictures at the other site. A month or two before the wedding we were told that our day-of planner was on leave and we had another new person (who was amazing!). The rehearsal is on you, you won't have a coordinator that day, which might not have been a problem except now the other day of coordinator was going to be there that day to do the ceremony (no one told me until the night before when I called and had another question). She at the ceremony sent me out early before my song came on. I can get over that, no one remembers those details, but being told something that wasn't true bothers me. There was actually another wedding going on that day so our first look was a scramble and someone had to get a hold of Herrington to send their bus early to help all the bridesmaids go to the other site to take pictures. All the while my dad had to drive me over while the photographer drove my husband over to do the first look. Overall the wedding was amazing, the scenery was beyond gorgeous, the food was great, and we got to meet a good chunk of their staff. After all of that, I would still recommend them, because it is beautiful and they are a well-oiled machine that is extremely knowledgable.

There are not enough stars to give! My husband and I got married here at the Polynesian Lawn and Paradise Ballroom on Friday, June 21, 2019 and it was the best day of our lives. Herrington gave us our dream wedding. From the moment we arrived ...
at the venue we knew it was the one. Stepping onto the Polynesian Lawn I could instantly envision me and my dad walking down the aisle with my husband waiting for me at the end. It is beyond beautiful- right on the water, extremely private, the "altar" is framed with a beautiful wooden pergola and palm trees, and the entire ceremony location is surrounded by perfectly landscaped flowers. Truly breathtaking. Right next door is the Paradise Ballroom which is not your average tent- it is a massive semi-permanent structure that they put up in April and take down during the winter. Absolutely gorgeous! The sides of the tent can be zipped off so you can enjoy the crosswinds and the open, outdoor feel. We had 115 people at our wedding and everyone fit EXTREMELY comfortably. Cocktail hour takes place right outside on the patio so your guests can enjoy a view of the water. Let's talk about the service. Herrington provides the most FANTASTIC service! Every meeting we attended we were offered food & drinks- we got to try a ton of appetizers free of charge and just really felt at home. The food is fantastic! Herrington, specifically Brittany, made the planning process SO easy! I kept feeling like I was forgetting something, but I wasn't! They are absolute pros. The day of the wedding there were no hiccups (or at least none that we knew about!) The staff is extremely professional, the entire day ran on time and most importantly, we were not stressed at all about the details. We knew that we were taken care of and we truly got to enjoy ourselves. Let's talk about the entire venue- there is an inn which I can not recommend enough! The families and wedding party stayed here which was beyond convenient. Thursday night we had our rehearsal dinner at the East Beach tent which I would highly recommend. They also have equipment for a slideshow which was a highlight of the night and the option for a beach bonfire. We LOVED having our wedding here on a Friday because we got to enjoy all day Saturday on the beach! We all had dinner Saturday night at Ketch 22, the restaurant on the property. It was frustrating that Ketch 22 didn't stay open past 11pm since we wanted to have our wedding after party there, but instead we booked the Inn's Osprey and Blue Heron suite (which is essentially a private house) and we threw our own after party which definitely ended up being way more fun! The open house that they have 2x a year was a fantastic way to meet vendors. I would HIGHLY recommend booking with vendors who are familiar with Herrington, ESPECIALLY photographers. The ONLY stressful part with Herrington was the rain back up plan- either to have your guests sit at their tables inside the tent or pay extra for a tent extension to cover the cocktail patio area and have the ceremony there. Talk through these options to make sure you are comfortable. That didn't end up mattering for us- we had the most PERFECT day- breezy, partly cloudy, low 80s with 0% chance of rain. Every time we visited we had good weather. Me, my husband and our families will be eternally grateful to Herrington on the Bay. We plan on visiting it every year to enjoy their amenities and reminisce for hopefully many years to come.

They were there for us every second of the planning process from the moment we stepped through their doors until the very last donut and breakfast bite was taken the morning after. They went above and beyond to make sure every single one of our requests could be met and made recommendations for things we had not thought of before. I cannot imagine a more perfect place to have an event with a menu that can become as creative as you want to make it and service that is unmatched by any other. The area is the perfect place for a weekend getaway and is a place many of our guests have told us they will now return to again in the future.

The friendly atmosphere, farm-to-table fresh cuisine, delicious beverages, prompt responses and structure is what sold us! The planning and organization with our Event Specialist, Lexy was AWESOME!!! We designed and carried out plans for our wedding without a formal wedding planner, which was a scary feat for us first-timers in itself. But every time I spoke with Lexy, I developed a sense of calm. Lexy's attention to detail, great sense of humor, and helpful ideas were exactly what we needed to help us have such a beautiful outdoor wedding on 09 June 2019...despite the intermittent showers. The staff were very friendly, gracious, and catered to our every request. Throughout the 4-month planning process, Lexy kept in communication with us to follow up, just to ensure we were on track for deadlines, or needed any assistance. I was most impressed with her response rate to my random inquiries or notices, usually within a 24-hour period, sometimes within an hour! We HIGHLY RECOMMEND Herrington on the Bay! I honestly don't have anything bad to say about this beautiful location.

The way the various aspects of the venue are broken up into two entities--hotel/pavilion/beach, and ceremony site/yacht club, made for sometimes challenging communication, but it was well worth it for the experience we ultimately had.

ur first meeting. All of the staff are a pleasure to work with; they work with you to customize everything so that the wedding truly fits your vision and help you to stay within your budget. My fiancé and I absolutely loved the food (I think the crab dip is what sold him on the venue) and he actually looked forward to planning meetings because he knew that he would be given snacks at each one. They also make the planning process easy and stress-free; my fiancé and I are both finishing up med school and had a really busy fall, but Herrington totally took care of us every step along the way and made sure that we stayed on track. Most of our vendors were recommended by Herrington as well and we loved working with every single one of them. Not only have our guests not stopped raving about the food, but they also have not stopped talking about how lovely and relaxing the area is. I’ve had several family members say that they want to come back for a week-long stay! I had a lot of family come in early from out of town and was a bit worried about keeping everyone entertained, but they loved walking around enjoying the beach and the surrounding area. Herrington continued to wow us when it came to the actual day of our wedding. They made sure that everything ran smoothly, even when we had a few last minute changes in the order of events at our reception. They even give you your own personal waitress to get you food and drinks during the reception, which was amazing. The day was so perfect in every way.

felt like a destination spot for us and our guests. We searched high and low for two months in Maryland AND in Virginia for venues and we knew the moment we walked into Herrington, that it was "the one." Not to mention, that the staff is so professional, kind and really knows the industry! It's such a breathtaking venue, and there is nothing like it here in MD. They also pamper you and make you feel so special. On our first day visiting the venue - they greeted us with coffee, champagne and the chef even prepared some sample menu options for us to try --- AT NO COST. It was an easy decision for us after our meeting and tour with them, that we couldn't imagine getting married at any other place. They also have a vendor party/event in which I highly recommend attending. They have so many vendors there that are recommend by the venue - from wedding dress vendors, to DJ's, travel agents, bakeries, lighting and limo companies...etc. We were able to book a lot of our vendors that day! The chef at Herrington also prepared many menu samples, making it easier for us to choose our dinner menu options. Every dish that was prepared was so delicious! We worked with Michelle and Mary on the planning and coordinating . They are THE BEST, and never disappointed. From day one, all the way to our wedding day they were in communication with us. I am so grateful for them, because they made the planning so easy and were very responsive to our many planning questions. On our wedding day, not only did the staff pamper us, but they always made sure were fed and had a drink in our hand. Our guests not only had the best time, but they were so amazed by the breathtaking venue and kept complimenting us on how amazing our wedding was. We are still getting compliments to this day!

Anytime we had any kind of request or needed a solution for even the smallest problem they had an answer. So if you are planning here and think “I don’t want to have to worry about XYZ” ask them and they’ll probably do it for you. The day of went off without a hitch to the point where not even the smallest thing was out of place. Everything happened on time and how we wanted it to. They even suggested a slight change in timeline when our ceremony was way faster than expected and it ended up being that much better. I can’t say enough about the job they do here. It is truly full service and would recommend it to anyone. Also, if you have the wedding here I highly suggest having the family and bridal party stay at the inn. They are equally accommodating and it makes for a great experience for everyone to be able to be basically on site.

, the patience, the ability to customize basically everything and so much more. I started with Janice as my coordinator and my fiancé and I loved her. She was patient and took her time to show and explain everything. We had a few switches with coordinators after that due to some changes but it was no ones fault so it was fine. So we worked closely with the owner until we found our permanent coordinator. The owner could not have been better. Anna helped by putting her time to speak with me OR my mother anytime we needed her. She even called just to check up. All the staff from coordinators, office staff, chefs, even a lighting guy I met the day before the wedding are all so on top of everything. Really makes you feel covered Incase you forget or miss anything. We were finally placed with Brittany. It was a perfect match. She saw my vision, worked with me to make it happen and even kept me grounded during a few late night emails when I thought I was in over my head. The day of the wedding rained, but stopped when we needed it so. We had the best wedding we could have even tried to imagine. Everyone talked about the venue, the food, the music, and we had the best time. We had Jordyn as our VIP server. She was not only there for me anytime I needed help but she made sure we were ok, taken care of and having the best time at all times. All in all I wish I could relive that night again and again. Everything was perfect. Ps. I can’t wait to use Herrington for catering. As a bride a groom we really didn’t get a chance to eat and enjoy all we picked( time goes by so fast) so we will be using catering as well as ordering their special cheesecake bites.

We asked all questions and she responded in details offering alternatives and options as the planning moved forward. We definitely enjoyed the reception weekend which is a very useful experience. At that event in December we were treated to sampling a variety of foods and cuisines that Herrington offers as menu for the wedding . We also had an opportunity to meet many vendors at the same place and time . So we ended up contracting the photographer and florist .

We were still settling in on a date, and a variety of variables including school and work schedules, were still up in the air to determine whether our wedding would take place in the Summer of ’17 or ’18. Brittany created multiple quotes for each scenario that we were considering, enabling us to compare and come to the decision that fit best for us. Once we had a date, Brittany got right to work on every detail. My husband and I are both planners, and came with a binder-full (an actual binder-full) of ideas, samples and specifics of what we wanted to include. Brittany took our ideas and rolled with them, and offered us her own insights that helped tie everything together! Flash-forward a couple of months, and we are introduced to our day-of coordinator, Sam. Sam was incredible! She worked with all of our vendors to ensure every detail was taken care of, and that we were free to enjoy every moment of our big day!

We sat down to talk details and had some of their crab dip (best ever), deep dish pizzas and took home some crumb cake. It was love at first meeting. We cancelled our other site visits because we knew there was no better place to have our wedding than Herrington on the Bay. We loved the cozy feel of the property, that our guests could stay so close at the Inn and the view from the Paradise Ballroom. It was easy to imagine our guests dancing the night away while gazing at the bay. From start to finish, Brittany and Lexy went above and beyond to bring my vision to life. They were responsive, detail oriented (we share a fondness and appreciation for a good spreadsheet), fun to work and have become friends over the course of planning. Herrington is a dream come true and we are so happy (and lucky) to have celebrated our big day at this incredible venue.

of. One of them even helped me get some sauce off my dress. My only complaint about the night was dinner. We decided to do the Italian menu which consisted of fettuccine, chicken milano, green beans, Caesar salad and rolls. To be totally honest, the food was not that good, which really surprised me. Our h'ordeuvres were absolutely delicious so we thought for sure dinner would be great. Our pasta was served cold and the chicken was pretty dry. I didn't have any dressing on my garden salad which was pretty disappointing. Also, my dad (who paid for the wedding) informed me that he got a very tiny portion of chicken and asked for another piece and the people working straight up told him no. This was really surprising for me to hear. My advice to anyone having their future wedding at Herrington is to stick with the original suggested menu (the prime rib, shrimp and risotto) as the Italian is definitely not their specialty. Also, Herrington does not allow you to take home any leftovers. We had our rehearsal dinner at Maggiano's the night before and they always box all left overs up for the family to enjoy. A lot of other venues also do this. Also, Gina and Brielle were so wonderful to work with. They were very accommodating and made me feel at ease throughout the whole process. Besides dinner, we really enjoyed our wedding at Herrington and would recommend this venue.

about 6 months, which seemed daunting, but with their help it felt so easy and stress free. Everyone from the owner and chefs to the bar and waitstaff the day of our wedding went above and beyond to make our day perfect. But, the best part was working with Brielle and Heather who figured out what we wanted when we really didn't even know and led us through the entire process. My grandmother ended up in the hospital the night of the rehearsal, so my plans to put batteries in and set clocks with my bridal party fell apart and Brielle and Heather got it all done when I dropped everything on their lap the day of the wedding. I really cannot sing their praises loud enough. EVERYTHING was perfect. Our family and friends have not stopped raving about this being the best wedding they have ever attended, and we could not agree more. The vendors Herrington recommends, the food, the service, and the love and joy in this establishment are absolutely unparalleled! If you want your day to be perfect, book with them.

As the wedding grew closer we started to work with Gina and once again were amazed at how great this staff is! Throughout the event, my husband and I never had to ask for anything, the VIP server was on top of it and Gina had the answers before we even asked a question -- she even handed me a cup of hot cider as we walked in the venue from taking photos in the 30 degree weather.

She was our main point of contact and helped us through every decision from the menu and drinks to the linen colors. She was so professional and quick to respond to emails, which was such a huge relief during the (sometimes) stressful planning process. We then met Gina, who was our event coordinator. We could tell that she had a lot of experience, so we felt like we were in great hands with her running the show! It was comforting to us when she mentioned that she and other staff members wore headsets so they could be in constant communication, ensuring seamless transitions from the ceremony to cocktail hour to the start of the reception. We decided to add on a ceremony coordinator, and we are so happy we did. Heather attended our rehearsal to tell everyone what order to walk in, where to stand, how to exit the ceremony, etc. I can’t imagine how hectic it would have been without her! We were having such a great experience with the wedding planning process that we decided to host our rehearsal dinner at one of Herrington’s outdoor pavilions and have Herrington cater the food (any reason to have their amazing food!). Brittany also helped us with the planning for that, and Jordyn was our event captain. We knew we were taking a risk with having it outside since the weather is always unpredictable. There was some very dark sky and lightning in the distance during our dinner, and it looked like it could downpour at any second. Jordyn calmly had the staff put the sides of the pavilion tent down not causing an unnecessary panic. Luckily the weather stayed far enough away and our dinner went perfectly. We also added on a bonfire on the beach which was so fun, and our guests had a great time. We had the most perfect wedding weekend and could not have been any happier with Herrington!

We all had a lot of fun! We can't thank Herrington enough for helping us "create" a perfect wedding, a forever sweet memory!

Herrington on the bay is a beautiful venue don't get me wrong. However, my fiancé and I booked our wedding there over a year away from our wedding day. Two months after signing our contract my grandfather became severely ill and my father passe...
d away. My grandfather was paying for my wedding but with his new diagnosis he could no longer afford it and desperately needed any money he had for his care. Unfortunately we had to cancel our wedding and Herrington, we may not even be able to have an actual wedding because we can't afford it and now neither my grandfather or father will be able to be there. Herrington on the Bay could care less about my tragic circumstance. They still have over a year out to book that wedding date, but still refuse to refund us some of our deposit for my sick and dying grandfather. That money could be used to help funeral arrangements for my father and any medical expenses for my grandfather. I understand a contract is binding, but as this is a small privately owned business, you would think the owner, Anna Chaney, could at least refund some of the deposit. The only suggestion they offered was to list the date as a hot date on their website. That doesn't help me or my family with our current financial situation. In addition, once they canceled our wedding, they are no longer responding to any of my emails. Completely ignoring me and my family. It's a disgusting business practice. This was supposed to be the happiest day of my life and now it's a nightmare.

This was hands down the best wedding venue I have ever been too. I was lucky I got to celebrate my own wedding here. They made everything super easy in terms of planning. They take care of all linens, food, drink, dessert, and even helped us de...
sign our own Cinnamon Roll cake! There was apparently a minor hiccup with some DJ equipment at the wedding, and the coordinator took care of everything without me even knowing what happened to avoid what could have been a potential disaster. The scenery is gorgeous and really feels like a destination wedding. My husband and I are so excited to be able to visit and stay the weekend at the inn every year for our anniversary to remember the most special day. You will NOT regret having Herrington host your wedding! Thank you so much to Krista and Chef Tom. You made our day PERFECT!

My husband and I were just married at Herrington On the Bay on May 30, 2015. We had a two year engagement and Herrington gratefully worked with us on all the planning. From table linens to decorations to cake setting- they were exceptional with...
helping plan our wedding. Our wedding planners were Krista Kuechler and Brittany Bergendahl- who were extraordinary at details in our wedding. It was very tough planning a wedding without my mother- who had passed away in 1997 from colon cancer- but Krista and Brittany put me at ease. When the day finally came, everything was perfect! I want to go back and do it all over again-in fact. From the reception to our own private servers, I have to tell you Herrington On the Bay was absolutely magical. I loved every minute of our wedding and would highly recommend anyone plannng a wedding to go straight to Herrington on the Bay for their dream wedding!

I can't say enough about how much I love'd having my wedding reception at Herrington on the Bay! Before, during, and after my wedding, I was constantly impressed by the level of detail and extra attention towards my wedding reception by every ...
member of the staff. However, not until I was in my friend's wedding did I realize just how above and beyond the staff and venue is at Herrington on the Bay. The wedding coordinator, wedding planner, wait staff, and chefs were always one step ahead. Everything about the venue and staff is top notch!
