Venues & Event Spaces near Severna Park, MD

“Look no further! This is where you want your next event.

I recently hosted an event at Alcove Event Studio, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience! From start to finish, the customer service was outstanding. Gabby, the owner, went above and beyond—she answered every question I had and guided me through the process of obtaining the necessary licenses and permits, making everything so much easier.

The venue itself was immaculate and absolutely beautiful, creating the perfect atmosphere for my event. Everything was well-maintained, clean, and thoughtfully arranged. It’s clear that a lot of care goes into this space.

I truly appreciate the professionalism and support I received, and I would not hesitate to book here again. Highly recommend Alcove Event Studio for anyone looking for a top-tier event venue!”

“Just like any American Legion, you can only get in if you are a member or are a guest of one. Accepts cash only, no credit card but does have an ATM on the premises. I think most have limited food menus. Full bar with beers on tap and bottled beer. Very nice and friendly atmosphere. Occasionally, has live music on the weekends. Alcohol is very reasonably priced.”

“I had the absolute pleasure of photographing a gorgeous wedding at the Annapolis Yacht Club this past weekend, and I’m still in awe! As a wedding photographer, I’ve worked at many venues, but this one stands out as truly exceptional.

The venue itself is breathtaking – nestled right on the waterfront with stunning views that provided the perfect backdrop for the couple’s big day. Whether it was the elegant ceremony on the dock or the vibrant reception inside, every corner of the Annapolis Yacht Club is a photographer's dream! ?✨

A huge shoutout to Sarah, Brittany, and Carina, the incredible event coordinators who made the day flow seamlessly. Their organization, attention to detail, and genuine care for the couple (and vendors!) made everything run like clockwork. It’s rare to find such a hardworking team that truly goes above and beyond – but that’s exactly what they did!

The staff at the Yacht Club was equally amazing, making sure every part of the day was handled with ease and professionalism. As a photographer, working with such an organized team makes all the difference in capturing those picture-perfect moments.

I can't wait to shoot here again! If you’re planning a wedding at the Annapolis Yacht Club, not only are you choosing a beautiful venue, but you’re also getting an incredible team to bring your vision to life.

Looking forward to many more beautiful weddings here! If you're looking for someone to capture your special day at this stunning location, I’d love to be a part of your celebration.

“I had booked the lanes here for my daughter’s birthday back in late October 2025 and the experience I had was phenomenal.
Manger there named Sharon was exceptional in taking care of my party and even gave us extra time due to couple of minutes of delay in getting our lanes ready. She kept checking on us if we needed anything else and that’s a plus for me.
Our food and beverage attendant named KAYLEY was amazing in her service. We had a food package that included soft drinks and she made sure that our pitchers of sodas were always full as soon they ran out. Even though she was standing away from us giving us space, but she was observant of our area to make sure that she was there when we needed help. If I had a business, I would hire Kayley in a heart beat. I would request AMF owner to recognize her as the best employee/employee of the month.
Overall I had a great experience with this facility and would recommend it to anybody.”

“We had our wedding in the ballroom. Very scenic and beautiful venue! Overall a pretty good venue that includes food, tables, chairs, linens, etc. The ballroom house itself is beautiful with lots of light indoors due to the large windows, and a nice deck for an outside ceremony. Zoe communicated with us and answered all our questions and did our tasting and planning, until a week before the actual day where we were assigned a day of venue coordinator.

I found this system to be not great, since the venue coordinator was essentially a stranger that you've never talked to at all, and you basically have to re explain everything you want. Even though they have an online planning tool (which is old and outdated), I found that they got our aisle directions wrong, the reception layout wrong, and our dinner meals were wrong. Thankfully, we had a separate planner that was able to correct these things, so I HIGHLY recommend getting an outside coordinator that works directly with you if you have room in the budget.

Another thing was our limited setup time of 1.5 hours meaning the florist and other vendors couldn't set up earlier with more elaborate decorations and had to do something simple. I found out that this is because they had another wedding at the same place before ours (literally ending at 4) and so they rush to get the place cleaned for the evening wedding. The main room and the suit was renovated, but the bathrooms were all still dingy and not the best/cleanest to use.

The food was good though, better than we had at our tasting and they got it out fast. Our vendors were fed the same food, and our guests thought it was pretty good wedding food.

Apart from the couple hiccups we had, we thought the venue was great overall and really beautiful and we don't regret having our wedding there at all. It could be a little bit better in the small details for the price though.”

“We had a great time Monday August the 15th. Delicious dinner and fellowship with other members. Playing Karen and Rob's Quiz Games. Winning Moose Bucks!Laughing out loud with other players.It's a special evening that we look forward to every other Monday. Thinking now about coming down on Wednesday Nights for Karaoke ?. Again the food is delicious and very affordable.Highly recommend the Annapolis Moose.C'mon down!!!??”

“Staff was professional and event went very smoothly. The food was okay, guest did complain about the chicken served. The chicken was either overcooked or undercooked. All and all, the venue did a great job.”

“We had a beautiful baby shower at The Hornor Maritime Center this weekend!! The space was clean and beautiful. Lynn was the best hostess we could have asked for!! I would highly recommend this venue!”

“Plays bingo on Thursdays. Accepts credit cards for entry if needed with a fee. Was a pleasant time a few down times if you are not early enough to get a pull tab ticket.”

“Rooms: Rooms were clean.

Nearby activities: Lots of restaurants and the mall is across the street

Safety: Felt safe no issues

Walkability: Lots of things close to walk to like the mall and restaurants.

Food and drinks: Bar seemed nice but was pretty pricey. Was randomly closed one night which I found annoying.

Noteworthy details: Free parking and easy on and off the highway.”

“Lived here for six years. Great community. Lots of walking paths, tot lots, great pool, and gym. The landscaping is excellent too. If you don't like living in an HOA, go elsewhere. If you don't like being told how to maintain the appearance of your property, don't buy in an HOA controlled community. AA County has plenty of other locations where you can let your grass grow tall, park a boat on your lawn, or keep trash out front. Not in this community.”

“We used this space for an educational seminar.The staff was kind and helpful when we met to sign the paperwork. They met me at the space and walked me around. Great location with many catering options nearby. Mid seminar my husband even got a smoothie from smoothie king. The whole class had Panera from 1 min up the road. They helped with tables and chairs and even banner poles.Convenient, clean, and comfortable place that allows for social distancing. Very happy with my experience.”

“Very nice hotel and a special shout out to Tanera, who was manning the front desk when we arrived. She handled a myriad of problems for us with skill and a smile.”
