Baltimore, Maryland

Chase Court
Chase Court specializes in small weddings. They’ve been offering elopement packages since 2009. They have learned a lot over that time about what works and what doesn’t, and what engaged couples want and need. There are eleven different elopement packages, from just the two of you on up to 60 guests, with lots of options for you to use to create a beautiful, memorable wedding with all the things you want, at the size you want. You can have a custom ceremony, live music, photography, flowers, a reception, and much more, including a great rain plan. Sooo much better than the courthouse! And it’s all turnkey. They put everything together for you. Then there’s the venue itself! The private ceremony garden is green and beautiful and lush with foliage, like a clearing in the forest, but right in the middle of a gorgeous downtown Baltimore neighborhood. It’s simply magical! And they have one thing that the forest can’t provide—an excellent rain plan. The simple elegance of traditional gothic architecture in their stunningly beautiful building (which looks like a church when you need it to, and doesn’t when you don’t!). It’s wonderful in the rain and all winter. Intimate. Authentic. Romantic. They have everything you could want for your wedding, including our experienced, professional support from your first contact, right on through to your wedding. You’ll love their lush private ceremony garden with its wisteria-covered pergola, trees, and pond. Rain or cold? The light-filled gothic library is a magnificent ceremony space, with leaded-glass windows overlooking the garden, high ceiling, and chandeliers! Full details and many more pics on their website.*****
