Woodland Gardens & Outdoor Events

"Attended a wedding here which was very nice. Ground was quite wet in the morning but decently dry by the 4pm wedding. Overlooks the Chesapeake bay. Pretty and to the point. Bride and groom took responsibility of full set up and clean up which was different but that’s what they chose."

"I actually found this venue beautiful. However it is very much all DIY. Very little coordination on behalf of the venue. Essentially you are renting out their backyard. As a vendor, I just found it slightly odd that they were driving around on the golf cart during this couples wedding, grabbing drinks from the bar and enjoying it while watching the wedding guests like they were a late night movie. Essentially just watched upon. It was a very odd feeling even as a vendor. That being said the place was nice. I personally had no issues but looking out for future clients here, I would request the owners not have their own little get together in your expense nor sit and watch over the wedding while having cocktails from the porch. And maybe keep their pets inside or away from your guests."

"I bartended for some friends at the venue, let’s just say the lady that runs the place only cares about the money. My work area had no working lights until about 915pm, the wedding was over at 10pm. I brought this to her attention after she approached me for a drink. So you charge people to use your property and then you drink their alcohol? It only got fixed after I kept bringing it up and her son finally grabbed an extension cord to fix it. Not so hard was it? Not to mention the dog running around leaving land mines for the guests to step in, as they did. I would recommend finding another venue due to poor management. It’s a shame too because it could be a beautiful place."

"Awful. Owners were rude, didn’t follow contract, and were taking advantage of the open bar. VERY rude to other vendors. Not worth the money. I will be posting on every website I can about how terrible their business is."

"Visited for a potential wedding venue. Would be a wonderful place. Beautiful scenery, great view over the water and very private."
