INTERESTED IN HAVING YOUR WEDDING AT THE GUILFORD HALL BREWERY? HERE ARE SOME QUICK FACTS:

With industrial wedding venues being so popular, what makes Guilford Hall Brewery unique?

The second floor beer hall is spacious and modern with a clean slate of brick and a light-colored neutral structure above; tons of natural light pours in from both sides of the room which is unique to similar industrial venues in Baltimore. The outdoor beer garden patio area is a fun congregating space for cocktail hour and could host weddings with an intimate guest count for outdoor ceremonies.

There are a ton of unique backdrops for portraits among the property both indoors and out with murals, brick, metal and an iconic industrial warehouse feel.

Is the venue accessible for any guests with mobility issues?
Yes, we have an elevator for all floors as well as ramps.

How many guests can you accommodate for a seated dinner with dancing?
170 guests

How many events do you host per day?
We have a total of 3 event spaces of varying sizes/capacities, so we could have 3 events going on at once, though this is rare.

Where do guests park?
There is free street parking and we will have valet starting shortly on Friday and Saturday evenings.

How early can we have access to the space on our wedding day? Do we have access to the entire facility on our wedding day?

You get 2 hours beforehand, and then 1 month before your wedding day, if there is nothing booked the day before or that morning, we can consider earlier access. Our facility is a working restaurant, so our downstairs level will be open to the public.

Are there spaces for us to get ready on site?
No, but we do have 2 air B&Bs 1 block away for couples to rent if they would like.

Are chairs and tables included with the rental of your space?
This is an additional rental, but we have furniture packages.
