Travel

You may find yourself with a bit of time to kill between the end of the ceremony and the beginning of the reception. Here are a few of our favorite things to do in Downtown Annapolis:

Take in the historic beauty and charm of our state capital!

Annapolis City Dock

Rest and refuel before a night of excitement.

Starbucks

Excellent restaurant and bar in walking distance from both the church and the reception venue--great vegan/vegetarian options!

Rams Head Tavern

Charming, blink-and-you-miss-it underground restaurant and bar on Main Street known for its delicious pizzas and fun cocktails.

Fox's Den

A Downtown Annapolis staple, this is also the restaurant where Patrick introduced Emily to his parents for the first time.

Federal House Bar & Grille

This may seem like just another souvenir shop, but Annapolis Essentials was actually one of Patrick's first jobs. Patrick forces Emily to go inside and look around every time they are there.

Annapolis Essentials

Super cute souvenirs and apparel, as well as plenty of gear for pet lovers.

The Black Dog General Store - Annapolis

The perfect mix between Francesca's and Hallmark. They also carry Jellycats if you are cultured enough to be interested in that.

The Cottage on Main
