Linganore Winecellars
A Winery Venue with Bucolic Sophistication
Holds ceremonies and receptions
Our wedding day was truly perfect and we thank Linganore (and Jade and Amber especially) for going above and beyond to make it that way. Truly, we couldn’t have asked for a better location and a better team to work with. We were planning our wedding from the other side of the world (Australia), and the team seamlessly coordinated and worked with us every step of the way to ensure the wedding was beautiful, meaningful, well-run, and fun. And it WAS!
The location was even prettier than the photos can capture. When we got there, we couldn’t believe the beauty of the rolling hills beyond where the ceremony took place; truly stunning. And the hall where the reception took place was perfect for what we wanted - great size, rustic, and worked really well with our chosen flowers/decor.
Adding the day-of-coordinator package was very well worth it. Amber is a super organised, super friendly expert coordinator (and impromptu decorator, golf cart driver, hair fixer, handler of family dynamics, etc.). Throughout the day, I had nearly 0 stress because I knew anything unexpected that happened, we’d be in good hands with her in charge.
Also, the WINE was delicious! The team helped us choose the perfect selection for an August wedding - fun, fruity, highly drinkable but not grossly sweet.
Even though my US family doesn’t live super close to Linganore, my husband and I have both decided we must make a tradition of going to Linganore for a drink the next time we are back in the US/Maryland, and reliving the best day of our lives.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Amy could not have picked a better place to finally so “I do”. First we met Jade who took us through the place and showed us what the place has to offer. Who also helped me along the way of planning. And believe me I had lots of questions trying to give Amy the wedding she deserved on such a blue collar income. We were then introduced to Amber our DOC. Between Amber and Jade they took us through how everything would go and calmed us down along the stresses of bringing a wedding together. I was completely dumbfounded throughout this process and these two really put it together for us. Amy and the girls had an awesome room to get ready in while I was to get there early and set up. However with a lot of kids I was late helping them prepare. When I got there Amber had pretty much set up all I brought the night before when they took us through the motions. All the stress I had built up on my way there to set up was relieved. As I finished putting together what I forgot to bring the night before both Jade and Amber worked hard finishing setting the ceremony site and last minutes pieces I brought in the hall. All meanwhile checking on Amy and making sure the ready room was doing well. Half hour to showtime and I finally let myself drop the worry and got ready. From there on Jade,Amber, and Brittnie took over and made sure we both enjoyed our night. Brittnie who we met on our first trip there was an awesome add to the party. Her behind the bar made it one hell of a night. Still remember her laughing with us when we were there on a tasting saying she wanted to be apart of this one. 😂. Between these three ladies who made us feel like an extended family rather than just another customer and this beautiful venue, Amy was definitely given her princess wedding. A huge thank you to you 3 ladies and the winery. Anyone that wants to find a way to make a great wedding work I suggest you give these ladies a chance to give you two future married couples the night you’ll never forget.

Gracing the rich hillsides in Mount Airy, MD, Linganore Winecellars provides a romantic wedding venue cloistered in the countryside. The largest winery in Maryland, the vineyard offers expansive grounds and capacious buildings that give couples an inviting space to add their own touch. The fertile terrain boasts fantastic vistas, creating a delightful and enchanting place for hosting wedding celebrations in any season.
Transforming the grounds of an old dairy farm to a vineyard in 1972, Linganore Winecellars has been passed down through generations. With this history, the location has a rich feeling of tradition. This 230-acre estate has gorgeous views and a peaceful pond which create a romantic backdrop for your festivities. Options include a banquet hall, the 4,500-square-foot Berrywine Pavilion, and the vineyard lawn, giving couples both indoor and outdoor event space options. Depending on which space within the winery couples choose, the space can host up to 200 guests.
While in a renovated 19th-century barn, Linganore Winecellars Abisso Banquet Hall exudes refinement. Featuring ceilings that reach up to 23 feet high, the hall is constructed with natural wood and exposed chestnut beams. This space is fully climate controlled and modernized for guests’ comfort. Large windows cluster the walls of the barn, adding the warmth of natural light to the already soft wood paneling, creating an inviting space. As a winery, this location simultaneously offers a dash of sophistication to the rustic barn locale, making it both sophisticated and homey.
Services include catering, a bar, and professional staff to keep guests happy. For ceremonies, couples are provided with white chairs, including setup and breakdown services. Rental time for ceremonies in the winery is a half-hour, perfect for simple, dedicated vow exchanges. To thank guests and give them something to remember the evening by, the winery offers an optional package of custom wine labels and wine glasses. To host showers and rehearsals, they also have the Bacioni Room, which has been recently renovated for an extra dose of finesse. The winery also provides a selection of trusted vendors to couples for wedding planning ease.
