Southern Maryland Waterfront Wedding Reception Tent

After A & M’s southern Maryland waterfront wedding ceremony, we moved to the other side of the little peninsula that the home is set on for a cocktail reception that included a pretty bar, a lounge with a view, and naturally a dump truck pinata for a nephew whose birthday was on the same date. The drink menu featured fall-inspired cocktails.

Since A asked for a Secret Garden-inspired tent for her southern Maryland waterfront wedding, I had to find a garden gate, and then make it look like it had been there for years and was overgrown with ivy. I think LynnVale Studios did a great job with this rental piece from White Glove.

A Stunning Southern Maryland Waterfront Wedding Reception Tent

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a more beautiful tent. I’m so grateful for the team I got to work with for this wedding. Since this event occurred before Covid vaccines, we seated everyone with their families only, so we had a lot of smaller tables. And we did a mix of farm tables with a more rustic tablescape, and round tables with blue linens, and a more contemporary tablescape. It was so fun to be able to design two distinct yet complimentary looks.

This cake. So stunning. I’ll never get over it.

We installed this wedding tent over a hardscaped area in the yard so that we had a natural dance floor already built in!
