- Paula & JuliaOwnerWith over 35 years of experience, we know that a lot goes into each and every event. We also know that, well, we’re great at what we do. And that’s because of one simple reason: we LOVE what we do. Our love for event design and the mastery of a delicious menu is our forte. We bring that love to every event and wedding every time. We’ve noticed that people that work with us see it too and end up with an experience they rave about for years.
- LaurenEvent Planning SpecialistLauren started at Whitehouse Caterers on January 16, 2017. It was MLK day and she remembers that we had SO many tours that day! She started in sales and then moved to the event planning department in 2021. Lauren graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Hotel, Restaurant, and Institutional Management from the University of Delaware and a certificate in Baking and Pastry Arts from the Culinary Institute of America at Greystone. She worked at a few bakeries in the Baltimore area. At one bakery, she began to coordinate weddings, in addition to cake decorating, which was her introduction to the event industry. She quickly fell in love with everything about weddings (especially after planning her own) and was so excited when she had the opportunity to join the Whitehouse Caterers’ team. And, bonus, she offers her cake decorating services to our couples! She loves to spend time with her husband and their 3 daughters. She enjoys baking at home. She has such a sweet tooth and her girls enjoy baking with her. She loves a girls’ night out that includes dinner, dancing, and a nice cocktail! She and her husband enjoy watching reality TV and dining out, especially when it’s for sushi, steaks, or Mexican cuisine. She values honesty and treating others the way she would want to be treated. Fun fact–when she worked at cake bakeries, she was featured on a few food competition TV shows. Check her out on the Cake Wars Power Rangers episode which aired in early 2017!
- LyndaLead Event Planning DirectorLynda started with Whitehouse Caterers in June 2001, after the birth of her first child. Before gracing us with her skills, she worked in the customer service industry “forever.”. She worked full-time while in high school, pulling graveyard shifts at 7-11, and graduated as a licensed cosmetologist. After high school, she worked in a salon and took on a second job, serving at a country club. Although she had no hospitality experience, she learned quickly and received several promotions. She eventually earned the Executive Clubhouse Manager position and was responsible for two properties and their daily and long-term operations. She values honesty, integrity, kindness, and compassion. She reminds herself and others that “you don’t know what’s happening in someone’s life and one moment of kindness can be the best thing that person experiences that day.” In her free time, she enjoys gardening, running, being outside, soaking up the fresh air, and listening to music. Enjoying vacation time with her family without the distractions of daily living is one of her favorite past-times.

White House Caterers was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. The staff was responsive and knowledgeable about all things wedding planning. Our big day turned out perfectly, thanks to them! They handled nearly everything for our day-of coordination. Our guests loved the food and coffee, too.

Choosing Overhills was the best decision we made for the wedding. Our planners Lynda and Lauren were very professional and easy to work with throughout the entire process. They answered our questions in a timely manner, were always well prepared and energized for meetings, and made coordinating with our many vendors very easy. The venue itself was beautiful, especially for our December wedding. Could not have asked for a better venue!

From our very first visit/tour with Karen, we fell in love with the venue. We knew we wanted a fall wedding, and the outdoor areas/options at Overhills are phenomenal. There are multiple options for where you can have your ceremony and reception, and most of those options are weather-friendly. We got married in the tent, had cocktail hour outside/on the patio, and then had our reception in the ballroom.
When it came to the planning process, it was amazing to work alongside Lauren and Lynda. They are both extremely professional, organized, detail-oriented, and kind. They really kept us on track with our planning tasks, and helped us develop our vision. They really supported us every step of the way when it came to venue logistics and our overall day. We also loved that we could rent out decor through the venue - made it so easy for us, and we didn't have to worry about purchasing or reselling anything.
Julia was our day-of-coordinator, and ran our rehearsal. We cannot say enough amazing things about her. Her energy is amazing. We did not worry about a single thing on our wedding day because she had everything well under control. It's clear how much experience she has, and how much shares about each couple and making their day perfect.
Last, but certainly not least, the food was outstanding. Having planners and caterers be part of our venue package was one of the best decisions we could've made for ourselves. It made the planning process so much smoother. We went to a dinner at Overhills to eat some of their food before deciding on our menu. We were simply blown away, and that made us more excited about our choice to host our wedding here. For our cocktail hour, we had pretzel bites, grilled cheese and tomato bites, spinach and artichoke dip, fruits, veggies, chicken terriyaki skewers. For our entrees, we offered a choice of short ribs or Chesapeake chicken (alongside bread, a salad and sides). For dessert, we brought in a cake, but also had their icecream sundae bar. We also got ready at the venue and ordered some of their sliders while getting our hair/makeup done.
Everyone who came to our wedding raved about the outdoor space, the grilled cheese and tomato bites, their entrees, and the icecream sundae bar. As a couple, we are so glad people had a good time and enjoyed themselves and their food.
We had the most perfect day we could've imagined, and cannot express our gratitude for Overhills enough (the venue, and the staff (planners + caterers).

We had an incredible time working with Overhills mansion. Wedding prep is not easy, but their Event Planners were more than prepared to assist us before, during, and after the wedding day, and were a joy to work with. Every person we worked with from Overhills were super kind and very professional, and helped make our day one to remember.

If you are like me, you like planning ahead of time for things but get extremely overwhelmed quickly with the amount of things you have to prep for your special day... Look no further. Overhills Mansion is your one-stop shop. They are fully transparent throughout the entire process and are very great communicators (love that!). They think of everything down to the last detail and they are reliable. The venue and food were AMAZING. We had the absolute pleasure of working with Karen and Lynda. They are truly wonderful individuals, so sweet, thoughtful, and genuine. We couldn't have asked for anyone else - Thanks to the entire Overhills Mansion staff as well. The day was beautiful and so serene - It was perfect. If I were to do it all over, I wouldn't change a thing. You won't regret it!!!!!!!!!!!

My husband and I loved having our five year vow renewal at Overhills Mansion! We received so many compliments from our guests on the beauty of the venue and the service of the staff. The day was magical from start to finish. We originally picked the mansion because we wanted a venue that had catering on site—and let me tell you, the food is delicious! But a HUGE plus is that they offer so much support in the planning of the day, from vendor recommendations to on-site planning meetings and more. Our event planner, Lauren, was spectacular at helping us put together all the little details that made our day special. I could always come to her with any questions I had, and she was ready with expert advice. In addition, our day-of coordinator, Lynda, made sure the day’s events ran in a smooth and timely manner, and our whole wedding party enjoyed working with her. So much goes into planning a wedding, and it can be overwhelming at times; it makes such a difference to have a team like the staff at Overhills that is there to support you throughout the entire process. They really go above and beyond to help make your day memorable for all the right reasons. Highly recommend!!

I’m so glad we chose Overhills Mansion as the venue for our daughter’s wedding. The atmosphere is absolutely breathtaking for a fall wedding. Our personal wedding coordinator Lynda was exceptional. She handled every aspect of the wedding ceremony and the setup for the reception flawlessly. She kept us on time and made sure everything ran perfectly, even though there were the expected “unexpected” moments that happen at every wedding. She kept me calm and I really appreciated that. Her staff was efficient and professional. The food was absolutely amazing!! The guests raved about the appetizers, salad and main entrées. The food temperature was perfect. The outdoor tent area and the ballroom were perfect for displaying our vision of a Parisian wedding. The upstairs rooms were large enough to handle our wedding party of 16. At the end of the evening, all of our wedding items were packed and ready-to-go. Thank you, Overhills Mansion, for executing my vision for my daughter’s wedding. I highly recommend your establishment to future clients.

Our wedding at Overhills Mansion was everything we dreamed of and more! The food was absolutely amazing-a lot of our guests said it was the best wedding food they had ever had. Lynda was wonderful to work with throughout the entire process, always professional, responsive, and genuinely invested in making our day perfect. Karen was with us for the day of and made everything so easy and stress free. We would absolutely choose Overhills Mansion again.

Overhills was the perfect location to host our wedding reception. Although they also offer to have the wedding ceremony there, we opted to have ours offsite. First off, everyone at Overhills is great at answering messages in a timely manner. Our planner Lauren helped us get all of the details exactly right for our day. I especially loved being able to have the mansion for the whole day and utilizing their getting ready suites for hair and makeup. All of the day of staff was excellent. Our event coordinator made sure everything ran smoothly the whole day and the food and beverage team served up an outstanding meal and drinks service. There are also so many gorgeous places to take pictures around the mansion. This place is truly the best!

We were so happy to have our wedding at Overhills Mansion. The mansion itself holds so much character and we were amazed at the various rooms and back patio/tent.
Throughout the months leading up to the wedding, Lynda was so fabulous at managing the planning process, giving advice/guidance, and answering all of our questions whether it was at in-person meetings or our many, many emails! Karen was our day-of coordinator for our wedding and she made sure everything ran flawlessly. From the ceremony on the front lawn, to the cocktail hour on the back patio/tent, to the reception in the ballroom, plus the all-day access to the suites upstairs, we are so happy we had our special day at Overhills! To have a venue that also serves as a catering company is also fantastic! Our guests raved about the food and many said it was some of the best wedding food they’ve ever had! They really are a one-stop-shop and provide outstanding services! From the planning every detail to the incredible food, we cannot recommend Overhills enough!

At its base Overhills Mansion is absolutely beautiful. My husband and I knew from the visit that this was the place. Our decision was only solidified by Karen's humorous nature. We were assigned Lynda for planning with less than 6 months to the wedding date. Lynda is organized and can best be described as the kind of person to get things done! She demonstrated this through planning and on the wedding day. On our wedding day I also received her perceptive and caring side. As someone who likes to be in control, she left nothing to worry about on the wedding day. It was all perfect, which I did not think was possible.

Look no further for a wedding venue! Lauren and Lynda were the most amazing planners to make the best day of our lives become reality. As someone who didn’t hire a separate planner, they were super responsive to any questions we had, gave great suggestions, and were extremely helpful in making all the little details come together over the course of our planning. We really appreciated how the venue was accompanied with catering as well as a list of vendors to choose from that were recommended / highly rated. You could still make everything your own but they helped provide a framework which was much better than working from a blank slate. The food was incredible and we loved the farm to table quality of ingredients. Everyone was raving how good the food was. The mansion itself is so beautiful and I received so many compliments from my guests. We added details to make it our own but similarly, it already is charming on its own. We loved how it was both inside the ballroom/bar and outside in the back by the patio and trees so guests could step in and out at their leisure. On the day, the staff was so friendly and accommodating. Truly could not have asked for a better experience. Thank you Overhills for making our dream wedding come true!

We had a great experience with Overhills Mansion. This was the last and final venue we looked at and we finally felt like we were being supported and given great value. I love the getting ready space, we didn’t have to get a hotel to prep. The mansion was beautiful and our ceremony and reception were beautiful. We felt supported throughout most of the process.

Overhills Mansion is truly a remarkable and stunning venue! From the moment we began planning, the staff showed us nothing but kindness, professionalism, and guidance every step of the way. As we searched for the perfect location for our wedding, we needed a place that could accommodate both our ceremony and reception, as well as provide catering services. Overhills exceeded our expectations in every aspect.
The food they provided was simply exquisite! Our guests couldn't stop raving about how delicious everything was. The steak was tender, the chicken was juicy, and every dish was a culinary delight. Special thanks go out to Karen, whose enthusiasm and expertise instantly won us over during our initial tour of the venue. We left knowing without a doubt that Overhills Mansion was the ideal choice for us.
Although we didn't have a clear vision for our wedding initially, Lynda guided us with such grace and creativity, helping to shape a truly beautiful and magical evening. On the day itself, our coordinator LaToya ensured that everything ran seamlessly, bringing a sense of calm and organization to what could have been a hectic day. We are immensely grateful for their contributions in making our wedding day so unforgettable.

The perfect venue! We had quite an intimate event, and were originally planning on eloping, but we saw this venue and decided we had to do something here. The venue itself is gorgeous and all of the guests had such lovely things to say about it, but truly our favorite part was the ease of coordination between them and the vendors and the onsite catering. So many of my friends say they barely ate during their own weddings - but not us! We definitely made time to finish our plates. I had guests coming up to me to make sure I tried the appetizers because they were so good, and they were right! I was in the middle of socializing and people are interrupting me with a plate of something or other like "you have to have this!"
Additionally, the staff day of and all throughout the process were extremely kind. I really had no idea how helpful they would be. I've been a bridesmaid at my bridesmaids weddings and we had to help set some things up, like signs or gifts etc, so I was expecting the same here, but they have dedicated staff to help decorate with your pictures etc.
The communication was exceptional, the food was incredible and every part of the event was perfect due to their attention to detail. The grounds and venue itself are beautiful. Could not have asked for a better experience and am so grateful we ended up getting married here. Thank you to the WHC team for making our dreams come true!

It’s no understatement to say that the Overhills team MADE our wedding day! Weddings can be stressful, and the team made everything flow seamlessly, so we could be present and enjoy the day. We’re endlessly grateful to y’all! :’)
Our wonderful experience started with Karen, who showed us the venue and talked through all our options for planning the perfect event. Her vendor recommendations were top-tier and we’re so grateful for her guidance as we picked our venue.
We then worked with Lauren to plan all the details in the months leading up to the event. Lauren is AMAZING!! Incredibly detail-oriented and so patient as we thought through different options (ranging from add-ons, to our menu, to decor). She’s a delight to work with, and we’re so grateful that she was in our corner in the months leading up to the wedding.
As the date approached, we worked closely with Lynda, who was amazing in ensuring that the wedding week went smoothly. She has an incredible eye for detail, arranging our wedding decor beautifully and helping us stay organized as we wrangled alcohol deliveries and last-minute details.
As the ceremony time approached, Mark stepped in. He is phenomenal! Mark kept us on schedule and calm, wrangling guests and ensuring that everything was in place for a great night.
The bartenders and other staff were amazing as well! Thanks for taking such great care of our guests! :)
TLDR: if you’re on the fence about having your wedding at Overhills- this is your sign! The venue is gorgeous, the food is amazing, and the team is the best you could wish for. It takes a village to plan a wedding, and I’m so grateful for ours :)

A big part of the reason I selected this venue (besides the fact that it's gorgeous) was the fact that it is essentially all-inclusive. Not having to worry about renting chairs, tablecloths, plates, waitstaff, bartenders, etc really took a lot off my plate. Our wedding was beyond perfect and that is no small part because of the venue. Our day of coordinator, Mark, was fantastic, people still comment on how good the food was, and everything ran like a well-oiled machine. It was beautiful - everything I could have dreamed. I cannot recommend this venue highly enough

AMAZING! I am so happy I chose Overhills for our wedding. From planning with Mark, Lauren, and Lynda, everything was so smooth. They were always available for anything I needed and were so friendly. The wedding day couldn't have gone more perfectly. The event space looked gorgeous, Julia was so attentive to us as we used the upstairs getting ready area. She was super friendly and helpful. As the coordinator, she helped facilitate such a smooth ceremony and reception. I didn't have to worry about a thing. The food is AMAZING. Lauren made our cake, and it was delicious and beautiful. We upgraded to the dessert bar, and so many people complemented the Apple Strussel. The space is perfect, too. When the music got too much for some of the older guests, they were comfortable outside and still felt a part of the day. Our wedding day was perfect, and I am so thankful for all of the staff at Overhills for making the day so special!

Whitehouse Caterers at Overhills Mansion was a great venue! I loved being able to have our ceremony and reception in one place and be able to get ready on the property.

Overhills is an absolutely amazing venue and we highly recommend hosting your wedding there. Our ceremony and reception was beautiful, and Overhills was the perfect mix of indoor and outdoor. Our ceremony was held in the beautiful Meditation Gardens to the left of the mansion while our dinner was in the ballroom and our reception/dancing was under the tent. Mark, our day-of coordinator, was extremely organized and had everything where it needed to be at the perfect time. Lynda, our wedding planner, was very thorough and helped us coordinate every detail, down to the placement of our decorations. The food is excellent. For our entree, we had a duet of rockfish and Chesapeake chicken for our reception. All of our family and friends raved about the quality of the food and enjoyed their experience. Overhills is a beautiful venue, and their staff made our wedding the greatest day of our lives. We can’t thank them enough!

We absolutely loved our wedding by Whitehouse Caterers at Overhills Mansion. We wanted something cozy and interesting. The building itself was decorated beautifully and all of the features that exist there made it so easy to add little touches of ourselves. The staff were incredibly helpful. They never made it seem like I was asking too many questions or sending to many emails and were always quick to respond. Our wedding of about 80 people felt like we were in someone’s home and gave plenty of space for dancing, talking, laughing. The food was more than I could have imagined and our guests are still talking about it. Thank you Whitehouse for making my dreams a reality.

The team was so responsive and literally took care of all the setting up and cleaning up which was a huge weight off our shoulders. They had a list of all of our other vendors and would coordinate with them to make sure the day went off without any issues!
They helped make our vision come true! Even my husband, who had not really cared much about a wedding, but would have been content with a courthouse wedding said that he had a great time and was really happy we had the wedding and loved the venue!
We will be forever grateful and happy for our decision to get married at Overhills Mansion!

I have nothing but amazing things to say about the crew at Overhills Mansion, especially Lynda and Mark. I worked with both of them for almost a year planning my wedding and they both ensured that everything went seamlessly on the day of. Mark was our day of coordinator and my family all raved about him. He was so easy to work with and he made sure that everything went exactly as it was supposed to. The suites on the second floor of the mansion are amazing for getting ready. I loved being able to be on-site while getting my hair and makeup done removing the stress of running behind and allowing me to feel relaxed prior to the ceremony. Our guests loved the food. It was absolutely incredible. The staff even packed up nice to-go containers for me and the groom as well as some of our guests who requested them. Overhills was incredibly easy to work with and so accommodating.

If I could leave 100 stars I would! overhills mansion went above and beyond to make our day amazing. Mark, Lynda and the entire team worked tirelessly to meet all of our needs and answer all of our questions quickly and completely. They were able to make amazing recommendations for vendors as well as let us shift around costs for things we didn't need (we did a sparkler send off instead of a sweetheart cake.)
Amazing service that led to a beautiful wedding!
P.S.If you're looking for a venue to have a TRUE Pittsburgh Cookie Table this is it! Family and friends were able to bring them when they came on the day and they were arranged beautifully!

We had our January 2022 wedding at Overhills Mansion in Catonsville, and we can't recommend this venue enough!
We found Overhills on WeddingWire about a year prior and visited the venue. We fell in love with the space — it was absolutely beautiful. Simple but elegant, which fit our vision for our wedding. Anyway, I can go on and on about Overhills because we loved them so much. But here are some highlights:
1. Communication: We worked with Lauren, Lynda and Mark. Lynda was actually our wedding planner and Mark was our day of coordinator. They were all so amazing and quick to respond to any of our questions. They made sure our day went as planned and it did!
2. The food: We loved our menu and so did our guests! There were a lot of food options and everything was seasonal and fresh. We got the lamb and salmon, cooked to perfection. Overhills actually hosts menu tastings each month, which you can attend as part of your package. We were able to go to two tasting nights as part of our package and try out different selections. Those tasting nights were so fun, and we actually plan on attending more in the future just for a date night.
3. Great value: We ultimately chose Overhills because you get a lot of bang for your buck. You get an on-site event planner, which really helped us with the smallest details. We didn't have to stress about the linens, glassware, tables, chairs, etc. - they had a lot of options you can choose from. You also get plenty of time at the venue which made things really convenient if you plan on getting ready there.
All in all, Overhills is a fantastic wedding venue! We're so glad we went with them!

I cannot say enough complimentary things about Overhills and their staff. We worked with Lynda for more than 2 years of planning, including during a COVID postponement, and on the day of. Having to postpone due to the pandemic was devestating, and the staff at Overhills was graceful and understanding, and made us reassured that we would still get our day. Lynda is FANTASTIC. She was patient, helpful, responsive, organized, and put my husband and I completely at ease the day of our wedding. I had complete faith in her making our wedding dream into reality. Overhills provided a place for us to get ready the day of, including private suites and snacks/drinks to make us comfortable as we prepared. She helped decorate for the ceremony and reception and completely captured my vision. The dinner was delicious -- locally sourced and beautifully prepared (we had butternut squash soup, pumpkin-encrusted trout, steak, green beans and smashed gouda potatoes). Their coordination with all of our other vendors was flawless. If there were ever any issues the day of, Lynda handled them without my knowledge of there ever being an issue! We got married on New Years Eve and Overhills went above and beyond a "typical" wedding ceremony & reception to make our wedding truly one of a kind! I could go on and on about what a truly awesome venue Overhills is; you will not be disappointed.

Booking your wedding with Whitehouse Caterers at Overhills Mansion is a no brainer. The venue and grounds are beautiful, and the staff and catering are outstanding. Selecting this place was easily the best wedding decision we made because they offer so much. The folks we worked with were amazing – Lynda and Lauren helped us throughout the wedding planning process and Mark was our day-of coordinator, ensuring that everything was seamless and flowed perfectly. Their professionalism and attention to detail are unmatched. My father-in-law was so impressed when Mark brought him a glass of sparkling cider right before his toast (somehow remembering that he doesn’t drink). And I can’t tell you how many guests were complimentary of the venue, staff, and food – in fact, two of our guests have already recommended this place to other people! I feel like I was able to truly relax and enjoy my wedding because I knew a dependable team was running the show. My husband and I are still buzzing with excitement and are looking forward to visiting (and reliving our memories) at restaurant nights in the future!

The staff is awesome, very responsive, flexible, and worked well w/my other vendors. The venue was beautiful even w/o decor and more beautiful after the decor was set up (I mixed some of what they had w/what my decorator had). Despite COVID and many changes needed to be made, everything went smoothly through the whole wedding day and so grateful!

If you or your fiancé must stick to a gluten-free diet, Whitehouse Caterers at Overhills Mansion will be your best choice. They can prepare the majority of their menu deliciously gluten-free from the hors d'oeuvres to the main course. This was particularly important for my wife who has lived with Celiac Disease for most of her life. She didn't want to have to think twice before eating something on our wedding day, and Whitehouse Caterers came through with an unforgettable, tasty experience.

Our wedding reception was a blast at Overhills Mansion! The staff was friendly and professional, the day of planner was efficient and made sure everything ran smoothly, the place was decorated to our liking, and the food was delicious! Not having to hire a separate caterer or planner made planning the wedding very easy, and the additional space under the tent out back was amazing!

Overhills Mansion was amazing! I
My wife and I were in awe of how wonderful the venue was and how hardworking the staff is. Everything was perfect! The food, the venue, the ceremony...it rained and they still found a way to make the wedding perfect. We are actually a little sad that it's over because we would love to be there again! I'm think we will be doing many anniversary parties with Overhills, and I look forward to everyone! Please do yourself a favor and book with them! It will be the best decision you could make!!

Overhills mansion was one of the first venues we toured when we started planning our wedding. We immediately knew it was the place for us. We were originally set with a December 2020 date, but of course like many other couples, had to postpone due to the pandemic. The staff at Overhills helped us navigate this process with ease and we were quickly rescheduled for December 2021. Lynda was so wonderful to work with throughout the wedding planning process. She was responsive and flexible, had great insight, and was always on top of everything.
Mark handled our day-of wedding coordination like an absolute star. Our wedding party, families, and many of our guests commented about how he kept everything running so smoothly. Between Lynda and Mark, they made sure everything was perfect, which meant we had nothing left to do but really enjoy ourselves.
Because we had a December wedding, the mansion was decorated for the holidays, which meant we could go light on the florals and let the venue speak for itself. We couldn't have been happier with the look and feel of the entire day. The food was delicious, the space flowed perfectly from tent to bar to ballroom, and our guests had an absolute blast. We look forward to coming back to many restaurant nights in the future. I would 100% recommend this venue to other couples looking to get married in the Baltimore area.

We loved having our wedding at Overhills Mansion. From our first inquiry until our wedding day, they were responsive, polite, and willing to work with us to accomplish what we wanted. Like may other people, we had to postpone because of COVID, and the staff at Overhills were great in helping us make sure that we had a safe wedding. The food was amazing, the service was impeccable. When you book a wedding with them, you get a wedding planner who helps you with the details ahead of the wedding as well as a day-of coordinator. This was amazing! It meant that on our wedding day, my husband and I (as well as our families and wedding party) could sit back and relax and enjoy the day. We cannot say enough how much we enjoyed having our wedding here. Also, the grounds are gorgeous and the mansion is beautiful!

I do not have enough great things to say about Overhills Mansion and their staff. We worked with Lynda throughout the wedding planning process (had to change our date 3 times due to COVID) and every interaction was so pleasant and comforting. I heard so many horror stories from other brides and their venues not working with them in regards to COVID post-ponements and I am so lucky we had such great people at Overhills to work with. Lynda made sure we had every detail covered and made the planning process so easy and answered our last minute questions promptly. Our day of coordinator was Mark and he was just outstanding. He made sure the bridal party and groomsmen had everything needed throughout the day and that everything was set up how I envisioned it. Throughout the evening, Mark hustled around and made sure that my husband and I had everything we needed to enjoy our evening. We had so many compliments from guests on the aesthetic of the building, the food, and the service they received from Mark and his staff. Lauren made our cake and cupcakes and omg, they were good! Another great thing about this venue is that they provide the food, tables, tablecloths, chairs, bartenders etc and they are partnered with a vendor, The Wine Bin, for liquor which was also a delight to work with. I truly cannot imagine getting married anywhere else since we had such a pleasant experience with Overhills Mansion. I cannot thank Lynda, Mark, and Lauren enough for their service and support throughout the process and during our event. Thank you thank you thank you!

My husband I were forced to find a venue because courts were closed due to Covid. Overhills was a dream come true. Just 10 minutes from our home the proximity of the location proved extremely helpful the day of our wedding. The staff was extremely accessible and very responsive to email and phone calls. At first site we could see ourselves getting married here. But it wasn't until the day of during all the hustle and bustle that you realize just how perfectly placed every photo and favor made the difference. It did not require much additional decorations outside of our personal items. The venue felt warm and welcoming to our guests. It also provided for some classic shots by our photographer. The micro wedding package was also very affordable and worth every penny!

If you want that fairytale, magical, and absolutely perfect wedding - go with Overhills Mansion. Having our wedding at Overhills was beyond what we ever imagined. Not only is the venue beautiful, but the food is exceptional, and the staff is phenomenal. Having a wedding in a pandemic sounds hard but not when you have Mark and Lynda in your corner. They answered every question and eased every concern. They made sure that the day went off without a hitch and if there was an issue we never heard about it! The bride and groom suites are set up perfectly! They have entertainment for the boys and plenty of space for the girls. Both suites have a foosball table and the boys even have an air hockey table (brides sneak over before they get there and enjoy haha). Throughout the whole day Mark and Lynda checked in to make sure we both had everything we needed. I can't say enough good things about Overhills!! They will forever have a piece of my heart! To Mark and Lynda - I cannot thank you two enough for all the hard work you put into our day. It was absolutely beautiful and well organized. It was everything I wanted and more!

Having our wedding at Overhills was one of the best decisions we ever made! Their team is absolutely phenomenal! The two main individuals I worked with during the planning and day of (Lynda and Mark) were the most organized, caring, and responsive individuals ever! Overhills' Caterer (Whitehouse) was amazing, our guests really enjoyed everything from appetizers to the main course. From the beginning to end they handled everything so perfectly, that if there was a flaw I did not notice. I cannot say enough good things about this place, and we would get married here over and over again if we could! The ballroom is beautiful, the outdoor ceremony space as well! The bar service was great as well! Would recommend this place a million times!

Everything on our wedding day was perfect. I wouldn’t change a thing. Working with the staff at Overhills Mansion made a stressful time manageable. From start to finish, they were so professional and attentive to questions and concerns. They really took the time to work through all of the details of the ceremony and reception.
Our day of coordinator was Mark, and he was amazing. He worked so hard to pull everything off, and we were just so happy. We got so many compliments from everyone about how beautiful everything looked, and how much fun everyone had. It was one of the best days of my life and I’m so glad we got the opportunity to get married at this beautiful mansion.

We are so happy we went with Whitehouse Caterers at Overhills Mansion for our wedding. We visited a dozen other venues in the DMV and decided on Overhills pretty much immediately after leaving the venue. We wanted a venue we knew would be nice for an indoor wedding because we were getting married in January, but their outdoor space is also beautiful for an outdoor ceremony. We are happy we chose this place because it is a beautiful Mansion, the Whitehouse Caterers employees were excellent, we still hear about how good the food was from our guests, it’s convenient to BWI for our out-of-towners, and the price was reasonable for everything the venue provided.
When you book WHC you get a wedding planner, day of coordinator, bartenders, staff, linens, and additional perks such as separate getting ready spaces for the bride and the groom. Jessica was our wedding planner and made the entire process as easy as it could be for us. We met with her to plan our wedding day several months out and again about a week before the wedding to make sure all the fine details are ironed out. Rosie was our day-of-coordinator and she was wonderful! She made sure our ceremony went smoothly and made sure we were taken care of the entire night.
Make sure to go to the tasting event hungry! The selection is so large that we ‘tasted’ enough food to eat about three full meals. All of the food was good, but the pumpkin seed encrusted trout, grilled cheese & tomato soup “shooter” and cannolis were our (and our guests) favorites.
WHC supplies their own bartenders and partners with The Wine Bin as their liquor providers. We loved they do this because you only pay for what your guests drink at liquor store prices. It saved us about $2k on alcohol compared to venues that offer flat fees per guest and we got to choose whichever brands we wanted including some fun local beers.
Overall, White House Caterers at Overhills Mansion did a fantastic job hosting our wedding and we would recommend them to anyone getting married in this area. Their employees are wonderful and the food is excellent. The price was reasonable for everything Overhills provides, as other venues we looked at were around 30% more for a similar package.

We had the best experience at Overhills! Julia helped coordinate every detail! The venue was beautiful, the food was delicious, and the staff were professional (making the day stress free). We loved being able to have both our wedding and reception at the same location. Even a year later our guests have continued to talk about our great the venue was.
Our wedding day was far better than anything we could’ve imagined!!

Everyone we worked with at Overhills was wonderful (Jessica, Lauren, Lynda, and the whole team)! They went above and beyond to make our wedding day everything we dreamed it would be, from the food, the decor, coordinating with all of our vendors, and everything in between. Our guests raved about the venue and the food, including our speciality donuts at the end of the night! We are incredibly grateful for the experience we had at Overhills and couldn't have asked for a better setting to start our lives together!

Overhills mansion is a beautiful venue for any gathering. The ballroom has a gorgeous fireplace and flexibility in the floor plan. We had about 100 people at our wedding and it was the perfect size. It could probably comfortably fit about 120, but I wouldn't recommend more than that, especially in the colder months since it would probably feel cramped. The food was amazing and the staff will be able to accommodate anything you can think of. The location is also very convenient as it is so close to BWI and nearby hotels for out of town guests.
I didn't give it full stars for several reasons. The main reason being that they are not great at communicating and were sometimes misleading. For example, when meeting to discuss booking the venue, we were told that it would include a wedding planner and a day-of planner. The day-of planner was absolutely amazing, but the wedding planner really was more of a coordinator in that she was able to help with some basic ideas such as linen colors and signage and making sure our vendors knew when to show up, but we still needed to do all our own research and hiring of other vendors and had to do most of the actual planning ourselves. Also, when it came to billing, they didn't send any reminders about when bills were due. We randomly got a "bill past due" notice almost a month after one of the bills was due with no prior notice. Also, you can basically only pay with check or cash (they do take paypal, but there's a fee associated with that which makes it cost prohibitive). Further, although there are beautiful rooms upstairs that would be perfect for getting ready in, prepare to get ready somewhere else. You only get 2 hours in the rooms before your event time unless you pay extra, and it seems common for there to be two events on Saturdays (a morning and an evening event), so you will not likely be able to spend the whole day at the venue.
Overall, it's a really beautiful venue, convenient location with very friendly and accommodating staff and great food. Would recommend if you don't mind getting ready somewhere else and are prepared to do most of your own planning or will hire your own wedding planner to do it for you.
Vendor response 12/23/2019
Laura, we are so glad that you and your guests had a wonderful time here. We really enjoye...
d working with you and Nick along the planning process. We are happy that your 100 guests were very comfortable. We often accommodate up to 240 guests in the ballroom by offering a variety of floor plan options to suit different types of events and quantities of guests. It is our goal to design the ballroom to make it feel like it is the perfect size for every party, whether 50 guests or 240 guests.
We have decided not to hire vendors for our clients because we want our clients to choose their own vendors. We help by giving our recommended vendor list and we coordinate details with the companies that our clients choose. While our event planners do help with linen colors, we also create custom floor plans, timelines, design centerpieces, customize décor around the mansion and so much more. Since we are one company, our clients have the added benefit that our event planners work side by side with the day of coordinator, executive chef, owners and their staff to ensure that all of the tiny details for your day are thought about, planned for, and communicated to our team so that everything is perfect.
While we do not send out reminders for billing, we do include a payment schedule in the contract and in the event planning booklet received by all clients. Past due notices do not incur any kind of fee, but are given simply to remind a client when they have missed a payment.
Our packages for 2020 now include seven hours in the suite to get ready and we only host one wedding per day to optimize our client’s time at the mansion.

I absolutely loved this venue. They give you so much freedom to personalize your day as much as you want! I viewed other venues that were so strict on table placement, candles, flowers, etc. This place was really flexible however! I loved having a wedding coordinator who thought of every tiny detail. The mansion was clean, well cared for and beautiful. The food is just as amazing at the tasting as it is the day of. And what's even better is that since we are a military family we received a discount and a surprise extra appetizer the day of!

TL:DR Working with Overhills was a wonderful experience. Tremendous value and attentive and helpful staff.
The venue:
The venue was absolutely beautiful. We had our reception at Overhills and found it to also be a beautiful place to take pictures. We heard that Overhills is not the best place for a rehearsal dinner.
We did not have the ceremony at Overhills.
The staff:
The staff was attentive and professional at every turn. We worked with a handful of different people and felt very cared for throughout the whole process. They provided a day of coordinator who was hospitable and thoughtful.
Vendors: Overhills provided excellent recommendations for vendors. We loved that Overhills allowed us to purchase our own alcohol through a local liquor store called the Wine Bin. This allowed for a lot of customization, and saved us thousands of dollars compared to the other venues who offered drink packages. The food at Overhills was excellent, as was the cake that we chose.
I would certainly recommend working with Overhills.

Our wedding at Overhills Mansion was absolute perfection! We had our wedding and reception here in December of 2017. The staff was wonderful- each person I worked with throughout the process was dedicated, personal, and always responded quickly; everyone I talked to gave me their full attention and worked hard to be sure all our questions and requests were met.
I highly, highly recommend Overhills for your wedding/reception/party/gathering. The place itself is so beautiful, and food was phenomenal, and their experience unmatched. Their expertise in food, service, wedding ceremony, and reception was priceless. I am still surprised that they were in our budget considering how much was included. The additional vendors (DJ, Photographer, alcohol, etc.) were all from their list of preferred vendors. Not required to use them, but it saved us so much time and hassle vetting companies ourselves. I am thrilled with how everything turned out! If I could get married to the same man every single year for the rest of our lives, I think I'd want to come back to Overhills each time. Thank you for making such a special day so perfect!! <3

We had the best experience with the Overhills! Its a beautiful venue, and the staff were excellent to work with. We had plans for an outdoor ceremony, but had to switch to indoors at the very last minute (like 15 minutes before I was going to walk down the aisle) because of rain. It was a perfect day and the staff made that transition so easy!

My wedding was at Overhills Mansion on November 18, 2017. We had an evening wedding. Rossi was our day of coordinator.
Every single thing about my wedding night was beyond perfect. It was by far the most beautiful, magical and happiest night of my life. To every single staff member that assisted in any way with my wedding - I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. The steak and crab cakes were the best I've ever had (and I lost count of how many of my guests said the same). Everything ran so smoothly. No one in my family had to worry about a single thing.
To Rossi - thank you for simply being you. Thank you for telling me I looked gorgeous every chance you got. Thank you for checking on me throughout the night in such a way that made me feel like you were one of my sisters. Thank you for your warm hugs and bright smile all night.
Most girls grow up with a picture of what their perfect wedding would look like. But Overhills Mansion gave me a night that far exceeded any dream I've ever had of what my wedding night would be like.
Again, thank you to all who played a part in creating such a magical night.
