LOVE this venue
We had an incredible time at AMM, highly recommended. We had about 120 people, not sure how they’d fit 150, but they worked with us on every request, helped with the layout/floorplan, etc.
I wish more caterers were on the “preferred vendors” list, but those are a minor issue. -

From the moment I found AMM I knew it was our venue. You just couldn't ask for a more perfect waterfront setting and right in the heart of Annapolis! Not to mention we were able to bring our own sailboat up to the dock for the evening which was beyond special for photographs & allowing friends/family to tour the boat we'd lived & traveled on for 2 years.
We had our ceremony on the tented outdoor deck overlooking Back Creek & The Chesapeake Bay. In case of rain they offer side enclosures. Even in the heat of our July summer day there was a beautiful breeze coming off the water keeping our guests comfortable. The reception inside was the perfect space for our party. And guests loved to be able to explore the museum and the outside grounds as they pleased throughout the evening.
Paige was so helpful in making sure we had everything we needed for the day. Not to mention the venue fee is supporting such a wonderful museum!
We also enjoyed chartering their Skipjack, Wilma Lee, the afternoon before the wedding. Allowing out- of-town guests a chance to enjoy a day out on the water and see another side of Annapolis!
Cannot recommend this venue enough - beautiful space & wonderful people! Thank you Katie, Captain Bill & Paige! -

Awesome venue for an awesome day
AMM worked out great for our daughter's wedding. The external cottage was the perfect staging area for the wedding party to prep before the reception. The museum area made for a great pre-meal mingling space where guests could browse the exhibits and having a second bar on the covered deck not only afforded views of the surrounding marina but once the party got going with a live band, served as quieter space for more intimate conversations. The main space looked great with the decorations and everyone felt connected. We had a beautiful evening and the ability to stroll out on the piers and star gaze added to the special feeling of the occasion. -

We had our daughter’s wedding and reception at the Annapolis Maritime Museum—everything was beautiful (the venue practically decorated itself!), comfortable, and perfect. We hired an employee of the venue, Jenna Byrne, as our day-of coordinator—Jenna is worth her weight IN GOLD!!! I cannot say enough about her work ethic, attention to and execution of detail, responsiveness, and value. 10/10 recommend this venue AND Jenna B. -

Perfection!
We got married on 10/29/22 and AMM was absolutely perfect. We initially toured the museum on 7/4/21 right after we got engaged, and didn't look at another venue- we were in love! Paige was so easy to work with, the space is stunning, and the Barge House was the perfect place for the guys to get ready! We had our ceremony off site, but we could not have asked for a better venue, staff, and backdrop for our day. We highly recommend getting married at the Annapolis Maritime Museum!!!!!! -

We've been going to the Annapolis Maritime Museum for local events for years and knew it was the perfect venue for our big day! It has the best view of the Chesapeake in all of Annapolis and we loved how intimate and warm the space feels. Paige was so helpful and responsive throughout the entire process, and facilitated our perfect wedding day as our day-of-coordinator. Our guests loved how special the venue felt and we loved that we didn't need a lot of decor; the setting spoke for itself. Cocktail hour on the deck at sunset was a highlight. We'd strongly recommend AMM and Paige!

Great venue in Annapolis!
We loved the Maritime Museum! It was such a unique venue. We were struggling to find a venue that fit our number (~105) perfectly and the AMM did just that. It was PERFECT for our size. I was hesitant it would feel too rustic but once it was set up it was everything we wanted and our guests absolutely loved it. We even had a hurricane during our wedding and it was still amazing. We also took our bridal party and some out of town guests out on the Wilma Lee before our rehearsal dinner and that was a huge hit. Paige at the museum was amazing. Very responsive, helpful and kind. I was a little worried about the short set up time but we had our ceremony there at 5 and everything was set up and perfect. :) Since it was bad weather we did some pictures at the State House under the awnings which was really fun. -

AMM was the perfect venue for our labor day weekend wedding! We had 115 guests and felt that was the perfect size. Paige was so incredibly to work with throughout the whole process and incredibly responsive and flexible! We can't thank her and the AMM staff enough!
We would highly recommend using the entire space provided: deck, side lawn, museum and the barge house to get ready! It was such a perfect day and we are so happy we chose AMM! -

This venue really has it all - waterfront views, outdoor space for cocktail hour, a modern, elegant main room and a charming Eastport location. Our guests raved how unique and beautiful it was. The staff was helpful and responsive and made our vision come to life. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! -

We are so glad that we decided to get married at AMM. The venue was easy to work with and very accommodating. The exhibits and boats give a unique option to explore for guests throughout cocktail hour and the reception. Our guests really enjoyed walking around the piers.
Even with some rain the venue was beautiful! The pier is perfect for a first look! Eastport is also such a great area in Annapolis and it is very walkable. It is an added bonus that the venue fee goes to a good cause! -

This was a perfect venue for our daughter’s wedding. It was a unique experience to be able to offer our guests everything from a beautiful ceremony on the most picturesque deck overlooking the water to a cocktail hour in the side yard to the incredible banquet space to the truly unique and interesting and fun experience of the museum itself. We heard from so many of our guests how much they enjoyed themselves and what a great place to have a wedding! Personally, I loved that the rental fee goes completely to support the educational programs offered by AMM. And the icing on the cake, so to speak, was the fantastic support Paige provided. She was so good about communicating, answering our questions, offering helpful ideas and making sure everyone was where they needed to be at the proper time. I cannot say enough positive things about our experience there - truly a most beautiful and memorable occasion in our lives! -

We interfaced with Paige Skrickus. She responded to questions and requests within the day and often within the hour. She even recommended a great hair salon. She emailed receipts promptly. When the day drew near she averted a near disaster and oversaw more details graciously relieving my tension and ensuring a great dessert display.
Spectacular venue on the water with video Brant indoor and outdoor spaces. Even a place to dock a boat for a grand wedding party entrance!!
Thank you, Paige! -

Omg, I don’t know how to put how amazing this venue and team are into words! Paige and her staff at AMM made choosing AMM a no brainer as they answered every email and question promptly. They also were available to meet us when we needed for a walk through, since we live out of state. It is the perfect location. You get the beautiful creek, the inside AND outside venue, side yard and docks! We were able to come in via boat for our perfect Annapolis entrance. It’s just perfect. The museum allowed for guests to wander though during the reception while the main area allowed for more than enough room for 100 plus people to dance. Book this venue, you won’t regret it! -

We just got married at the Annapolis Maritime Museum and I can’t recommend it enough. It was a perfect setting for our dream wedding on the water. Great location, beautiful inside area, outside lawn/beach area and stunning views. It was my dream venue and I’m in love with it. We worked with Paige Skrickus as the venue manager and our day of coordinator. She is amazing and was so helpful the entire way through. Paige made the planning process easy and enjoyable. She was responsive, flexible, and always professional, and went out of her way to accommodate any and all requests. Best of all…AMM is reasonably priced for the level of quality and service. I highly recommend this venue for any type of event!!! -

AMM was great to have our wedding at! You get a little bit of everything when you are there- water, beach, garden, museum. It provides a beautiful backdrop for pictures and there are so many fun things for guest to look at. All of our guests said how beautiful the venue was. Paige was wonderful to work with and provided great suggestions/ideas while we were planning out the details of the day. We are so happy we had our wedding there and would not have wanted it anywhere else! -

Perfect Annapolitan venue
We wanted a venue on the water, with a lot of local character. The AMM was exactly what we were looking for. We didn’t even look anywhere else. Our guests loved it! Paige, the venue manager, was so helpful and responsive. (I’m so glad, if our wedding had to be postponed because of a pandemic, that this was the venue we had to work through it with! They were so flexible.) The value is incredible for a historic waterfront building, and we were glad we were supporting a local non-profit. -

Abigail A. Sent on 07/27/2021The Most Beautiful Venue and Experience
I can't recommend the Annapolis Maritime Museum enough. To start, Paige was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the process of planning for our wedding at the museum. Her level of professionalism and just general kindness in helping us was amazing. She made planning easy and fun and everything was extremely simple and straightforward. When it came to the day itself, it truly was an unforgettable experience having our wedding at the Annapolis Maritime Museum and we couldn't be happier. The AMM really is such a special place and we feel extremely grateful to have been able to celebrate our big day there. Just above & beyond in terms of the service and experience. Paige was there the entire day helping to ensure everything ran smoothly. Not to mention how absolutely beautiful and unique the venue itself is. If you haven't seen it in person, just visit, and you will be sold. The stunning tented deck over the open water is my personal favorite part, but all other parts of the venue were equally as beautiful. We will definitely be recommending AMM to anyone and everyone we know for their events. Thank you AMM for helping to make our wedding day better than we even could have imagined! -

Beyond amazing!
Paige was FANTASTIC. She was beyond responsive and answered every question no matter how silly it was. If Paige wasn’t working or available she made sure we were taken care of. Paige even helped us book a skip Jack outing through AMM which was great! Have nothing but amazing things to say about Paige and the venue! -
