Evergreen Museum & Library

Located in a serene and timeless tree-lined setting just north of Baltimore City, the Evergreen Museum & Library provides a diverse and customizable array of outdoor and indoor settings for your wedding day. The estate features a magnificent 19th Century Gilded Age Mansion surrounded by elegant and manicured gardens and a sprawling terrace, perfect for a wedding ceremony and/or cocktail hour. The grounds also include a charming and rustic Carriage House with exposed brick and original woodwork, a unique indoor location for dinner and dancing.

The property celebrates the legacy of John Garrett (president of the B&O railroad) and his family's impeccable eye for landscape, architectural detail and artisanship. The centerpiece to the gardens is a regal stone fountain that provides a timeless backdrop for exchanging vows. And, the adjoining terrace provides an incredible atmosphere for sipping cocktails that features hand-wrought iron railings, seasonal flowering gardens and an exquisite Tiffany awning. Twice a year, the gardens can be tented for larger celebrations.

The Carriage House provides an inviting and unique indoor space for dinner, dancing and activities. Featuring a Tented Patio that encloses the original brick façade and oversized green wooden doors of the historic building, a wood-paneled Carriage Room and two rows of authentic horse Stalls, there are numerous options for customizing the space for a truly unique wedding reception. The Carriage House can also be utilized to host indoor ceremonies, cocktail hours and receptions and provides a rain location for outdoor events.

Our staff is dedicated to providing guidance, recommendations, and creative ideas to help customize your experience at the Evergreen Museum & Library.
