The Collective Offshore & Encore

The Collective Offshore & Encore is an innovative wedding and events venue located in Columbia, MD. This unique property is quite literally the "collective" of two stunning event spaces, Offshore and Encore. Whether you are looking for a warm and welcoming setting for your rehearsal dinner or a vibrant entertainment venue for your big day celebration, The Collective can bring your vision for your event to life. Offshore and Encore are two completely distinct event venues, each with their own unique mood and ambiance. Offshore is a full-service restaurant setting that celebrates Maryland's coastal landscape, with every décor detail evoking the peace and serenity of the seaside. You can choose to host your celebration in the private Map Room or the slightly more expansive Lake Room, depending on your event requirements. The Map Room is ideal for intimate gatherings of up to 40 guests, while the Lake Room can easily accommodate 60 guests for cocktail-style events. These two spaces also look upon a gorgeous courtyard and pavilion if you would prefer to host your gathering al fresco! For larger events, Encore offers a one-of-a-kind venue experience you and your guests won't forget. From the huge stage to the impressive full-service bar, every detail of this space has been designed with parties in mind. Encore can accommodate 140 guests seated or 200 standing, so you can dance the night away with all your family and friends on your big day. When you host your wedding at The Collective Offshore & Encore, you will have the support of the on-site events team to execute your vision for your celebration. The venue's talented culinary staff would be delighted to design a bespoke menu for your special day, showcasing the finest seasonal ingredients. Your wedding package can also include bar services, ensuring your guests stay refreshed and hydrated throughout the festivities!
