Nothing Short Of Magical
Our wedding at the Annapolis Waterfront Hotel was nothing short of magical, and we truly cannot say enough wonderful things about the entire team at the hotel and Atlas Restaurant Group.
The newly renovated event space at the Annapolis Waterfront Hotel is absolutely breathtaking. From the elegant design to the stunning waterfront views, every detail of the space created the perfect atmosphere for our wedding day. We felt incredibly honored to be one of the first major events held in this beautiful new venue, and it made our celebration feel even more special.
From the very beginning of the renovation process all the way through our wedding day, Alexa, Caroline, Haley, and the entire Atlas team were phenomenal. They worked closely with us every step of the way, always making us feel heard, supported, and genuinely cared for. Planning a wedding can be stressful and overwhelming, especially while navigating a newly renovated venue, but their communication, professionalism, and dedication made the entire process seamless.
Whenever we had questions, concerns, or moments of uncertainty, they were there to ease our stress, eliminate any confusion, and reassure us that everything would come together beautifully—and it absolutely did. Their compassion and commitment to excellence touched our hearts in ways we will never forget.
The culinary experience created by Atlas Restaurant Group was equally exceptional. The menu they crafted for our wedding was absolutely delicious, and every dish was executed perfectly. Our guests are still talking about how incredible the food was! It was evident that so much thought, care, and attention to detail went into every aspect of the dining experience.
What truly sets this team apart is the way they go above and beyond for their couples. They didn't simply host our wedding—they became partners in creating one of the most meaningful days of our lives. Their determination to make our vision come to life and their unwavering commitment to ensuring every detail was perfect exceeded every expectation we had.
We are endlessly grateful to Alexa, Caroline, Haley, and the entire Atlas team for making our wedding day so unforgettable. Their kindness, professionalism, and genuine care made us feel incredibly special, and we will forever cherish the memories we created at the beautiful Annapolis Waterfront Hotel. We could not imagine a more perfect place to begin our marriage, and we wholeheartedly recommend this incredible team to anyone looking for an extraordinary wedding experience.

The Wedding Of My Dreams
The Annapolis Waterfront Hotel and Atlas Restaurant Group were perfect. Planning the wedding for my only daughter was something we wanted to get right in order to provide "the wedding of my dreams" for my daughter. The best decision we made was to choose the AWH and The Atlas Team of Alexa, Caroline and Hayley. They are VERY experienced in all things wedding and hospitality. Everything exceeded our expectations.
A contract isn't worth the paper it is written on unless the people behind it are top notch. We experienced a change in our plans do to a construction issue. Before we even knew about it, Atlas had two more than satisfactory options to keep moving forward. The point Atlas stood behind their commitment to us and delivered a perfect wedding experience.
Annapolis is a GREAT town to host a wedding and The Annapolis Waterfront Hotel is the Best Choice for the venue.

Best day ever!!!
Annapolis Waterfront Hotel was truly the perfect wedding venue. Its indoor-outdoor set up, spacious second-floor ballroom, and patio overlooking Ego Alley was perfect to give our guests a fun, Maryland experience. Sarah and the team made sure the day went without a hitch, they worked with our vendors the morning of to make sure everything was set perfectly. Leading up to the day, Sarah was very responsive and willing to answer any questions. They also had a recommended vendor list, which made finding our vendors very easy.

5 Stars all day every day!
We CANNOT say enough great things about having our wedding at AWH! Sarah is exceptional and is exactly the person you want to make sure your wedding goes off without a hitch. My husband and I feel Sarah was the biggest asset of our wedding! We also stayed on property (along with about half our wedding guests) and from the time we arrived to the hotel everyone was very accommodating to us and helpful. Shout out to the valet mvp Austin & Alex from the hotel! All of our guests loved the venue and made many comments of how great the staff and accommodations were from Annapolis Waterfront Hotel. Thank you AWH and Sarah for making sure we had the best wedding day!

Beautiful July Wedding In Annapolis
We had our ceremony and reception at the Annapolis Waterfront Hotel in July of 2022. Our wedding coordinator, Sarah, and her team did an incredible job making our special day possible. Living in a different part of the country, we planned our wedding remotely with Sarah and she was always there to hop on Zoom/conference calls whenever we needed to discuss details and answer any questions we had. She worked with our other professionals to help organize everything, and things could not have gone better. Sarah really went above and beyond for us, and we are so grateful for all that she did.
The venue itself was stunning. July in Annapolis is beautiful, but the weather can also be unpredictable. Lucky for us, the weather was not an issue. However, Sarah did walk us through all the details and setup of what our ceremony would look like in the event of bad weather.
Having the mix of the patio space and indoor space was really a hit with our guests. All of the furniture and bar fixtures were updated a few weeks before our wedding, and it all looked beautiful. The catering and bar staff were extremely courteous and professional. Sarah and her team did a great job in coordinating with our wedding planner to make sure the flow of the event went smoothly. We were able to really customize the space as we wanted it. Also, the catering team was accommodating when it came to customizing certain meal and bar requests. The room block was another great feature, thanks to the help of Christine. Being able to be on-site for all of the events was a comfort to our guests.
Our wedding was such a special event, and we could not have imagined going with a different venue looking back. Sarah and her team were so thoughtful in their effort and execution of our event, and we are grateful to have worked with them. Overall we had a great experience here, especially being downtown and having a waterfront view. We definitely felt like this was a great value, especially compared to venues in D.C. and locally in Annapolis. Thank you again to Sarah and her team at the AWH!

Incredible venue and wedding team!
We could not have been happier with our experience getting married at the Annapolis Waterfront Hotel! With many of our guests coming from out of town, it was an awesome location for them to see and Annapolis for the wedding weekend. The view from the balcony where we had our ceremony was spectacular, the food was delicious (lots of Maryland classics, and they accommodate all restrictions and diets easily), and the wedding team was AMAZING! They were so kind and experienced, we were in excellent hands the whole way through. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
