Maryland Garden Wedding Venue: Annmarie Sculpture Garden & Arts Center
A Maryland garden wedding venue, Annmarie Sculpture Garden & Arts Center offers couples the opportunity to celebrate among towering trees, contemporary sculpture, and beautifully landscaped gardens just minutes from the Chesapeake Bay. Located in Solomons, Maryland, this one-of a-kind venue blends art, nature, and architecture to create a wedding setting that feels creative, romantic, and refreshingly different from a traditional ballroom. Whether you're planning an intimate outdoor ceremony or a grand indoor reception, Annmarie offers spaces that are as inspiring as the artwork surrounding them.
Art, Gardens, and Flexible Event Spaces
One of Annmarie's greatest strengths is its versatility. Couples often exchange vows on the Sculpture Lawn or in the secluded Council Ring before moving into the light-filled Murray Arts Building for dinner and dancing. Expansive galleries, landscaped patios, wooded walking paths, and outdoor sculpture installations create countless opportunities for memorable photographs while giving guests plenty to explore throughout the celebration.

The combination of contemporary art, mature forests, and modern galleries gives Annmarie a personality that's entirely its own. Guests can also enjoy nearby Solomons, where waterfront restaurants, marinas, and Chesapeake Bay views naturally extend the wedding weekend.
