Chesapeake Bay Beach Club

Words cannot describe how gorgeous this venue is. The professionalism of the staff is beyond what you could expect anywhere else, and though it may be a little more expensive than other venues, it is worth every last penny! I would do it all over again, and wish I could. CBBC is the perfect location, and the service is phenominal. The food is better than anywhere I have ever eaten, and I love good food and fine dining. Very impressed!

Our wedding day was flawless. Everything went perfectly, thanks to the extremely professional and detail oriented staff, especially our coordinator Teresa. Neither me or my husband is from the area, but thankfully we found CBBC because it was the most beautiful venue we could have hoped for. The food was incredible, and the views of the bridge are fantastic! Everyone had an amazing time, and we didn't have to worry about anything. When it was time to cut the cake, the cake was wheeled out to us, we cut the cake, and the cake was wheeled away! Everything was amazing and easy! Thanks CBBC.

The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club is a top notch wedding venue. They offer on site coordination, and even though they host thousands of weddings a year, they make you feel like you feel important, and as if your wedding is just as special as the next one. They are super accommodating, and are always willing to help with whatever you need. On top of the excellent service, the venue itself is absolutely beautiful. For outdoor ceremony's and pictures, you cannot beat this view and landscape and architecture. The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club was our first choice wedding site, and our wedding turned out perfect, thanks to them.

CBBC is by far the best place on earth to have your wedding and reception at!My wedding was originally on August 27, 2011 which just so happens to be the week we had an earthquake and a hurricane! So we had to choose a new date to get married at the beach club.We could not ask for better people to work with Teresa, Derek, and Erin and the rest of the staff of CBBC are amazing! They not only do everything to make me feel like no matter what we were going to have an amazing wedding no matter what they had to do! The day of my new wedding date, well lets see it was a down pour all day! yes again rain on my wedding day but this time it wasn't going to stop me getting married! The bay bridge was backed up and my rev. wasn't there yet and it was going on 7:30 and the wedding was suppose to start at 6:00 so Teresa was doing to find someone to marry us!We had a great night! This place goes above and beyond for you! Could not ask for a better more amazing place to get married and have a party at! Thank you for such an amazing wedding!

Teresa and the entire staff at CBBC were amazing! Teresa was so easy to work with and extremely accommodating! The food was delicious - people are still talking about the appetizers and how unique they were. From the moment we first saw CBBC we knew it was perfect for our wedding. From start to finish, Teresa and the entire CBBC staff went above and beyond to make our wedding day outrageous!

Our Captain Sharon actually washed the sand off my feet! CBBC will treat you truly like a queen and a king for your event. A once in a lifetime moment to be treated so well on such a magical day. The value for the service you receive can't be overstated. The customize your event to your liking and say "no" never! Erin and Teresa are sooo laid back and just encourage you to really enjoy your day. They take care of everything. I am truly sad that my day is over. CBBC will ALWAYS be in my heart!

I cannot begin to say enough about how wonderful the CBBC made our wedding last month in the Beach House Ballroom. The venue itself is clean, impeccably maintained and has three separate room options depending on the size of your wedding and your budget. All have gorgeous views of the Chesapeake Bay. The prices, while high, are comparable to other venues on Kent Island, which we also looked at, but were not as well-maintained and couldn't hold a candle to CBBC.Erin Janes, our point person for the wedding, was patient, professional and responsive throughout the entire planning process and was a super star on the day of the wedding. I literally did not have to worry about a single thing -- Erin and her staff took care of everything to ensure a worry-free wedding day. Some of my guests even said, "I wish Erin would run my life for me!" The result was our dream wedding!

Hands down THE best reception venue around. From the moment we toured the Beach Club there was no turning back. They wowed us from the moment we walked in the door all the way through our wedding experience. There's no beating them. They know the business and they do it at a top notch level. Everything was perfect. Our guests raved about the venue, the staff is amazing from the contact person to the wait staff. They are pricey but you will get every penny's worth from them. Well worth the cost. We felt that if we were going to spend that much money on one day we wanted to make sure we got what we paid for and we did! I cannot say enough about our experience. Definitely the best vendors I dealt with by far.

The CBBC is amazing! Erin Janes was our coordinator and I can't say anything but positive things about her. We had the most wonderful wedding day and everything that Erin and her team did was great! We didn't need to worry about anything the day of and all of our guests keep telling us that this was the best wedding they ever attended. Thank you CBBC!!!

PHENOMENAL! Without a doubt the most exceptional wedding reception venue in the Annapolis area! Everything about the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club exceeded our every expectation! The stunning venue, impeccable food and exceptional service are bar none. Our guests are still talking about the extraordinary food, atmosphere and service. This is perfection at its best! Special thanks to Erin and Sharon for an unforgettable experience!

The CBBC is a truly amazing wedding venue. They are VERY flexible and really try to work with you on everything you want for the day of your wedding. Teresa is very responsive to any questions you have throughout the process, and she is very knowledgeable about the "details" (if I didn't know what to do, she stepped right in and proposed a solution). The wedding day coordination is really the icing on the cake, if you will. Everyone works to make sure you have absolutely NOTHING to worry about. The wedding day went so smoothly. They work with all your vendors the day of so you don't have to be involved in any of the "behind the scenes" work. The venue is gorgeous and the food was simply amazing. My guests are still raving about the food (and that's amazing, considering wedding guests are rarely prepared to have EXCELLENT food at a wedding!) and they raved about the professionalism of the staff, and the flawless execution of the day. Some guests have told me it was the best wedding they have ever attended, and I credit CBBC for helping us provide this memorable experience for our guests. It's absolutely on the expensive side, but after seeing my wedding day come together flawlessly (my guests are still talking about it), I have no regrets and would recommend the CBBC to anyone! One nugget of special advice: Use the vendors that the CBBC recommends. Not to worry, there are plenty of choices within each category. Not only do they already have a great relationship with these vendors, the CBBC only recommends vendors that provide top-notch service and products.

CBBC is amazing. I could not have imagined how wonderful everything would turn out! Erin was awesome to work with, she always answered any of my questions as soon as i had sent her an email or phone call. It is costly, but worth every penny! Their staff is amazing as well. They worked with all of my vendors and i didn't have to worry about a thing the day of my wedding! I was so calm. The food was amazing, i had so many people tell me how much they enjoyed the food and how beautiful the site was! Everyone was impressed!

I had nothing but the best experience with Chesapeake Bay Beach Club. I had Teresa as my point of contact and she was great! Everything about the wedding flowed great and she was so easy to work with-very responsive and helpful. I did encounter one issue, Teresa was using an email address to send the quote for the food to the wrong email address and I had to wait around three weeks to finally get it, but it wasn't a big deal because once I did get it, she worked with me to make sure everything was finalized to my liking. The day of the wedding, I showed up and my cake looked awful...Teresa took over and got my cake looking beautiful. When I first decided on CBBC, I was a little worried about the price and I still think it was on the higher side, but considering all they did for me and the way they made my day go perfectly, I am happy with the price they paid. The tasting they offer is amazing and I got so many compliments on the food at the wedding. With Teresa and the great food and beautiful location, I definitely recommend this to everyone.

The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club was wonderful to work with. My Husband and I were married in March in the Beach House. The ceremony was outside with cocktail hour inside and outside, and the reception inside. They really know how to throw a party. Everything went seamlessly. They have just the right amount of staff working to make sure that everyone is well taking care of. My Husband and I never had and empty glass! By dinner time some of the bar tenders knew what people were drinking. Erin was fabulous, when we arrived she helped my Matron of Honor with hair. She fixed my dress late in the evening when I ripped my bustle, she was always making sure that I had whatever I needed!!! If you are looking for a fun fabulous time in a beautiful location with a staff that knows what they are doing, food that is fabulous and a sunset back drop, this is the place

Amazing food, absolutely beautiful scenery and the staff is so well coordinated that we joked that it was like the secret service! Our guests RAVED about this place the entire wedding. I worked with Teresa for all of the planning and she was the best! TRUST ME, this place is worth every penny and you will be SO happy you chose it! Also, consider a winter wedding at CBBC - the Garden Room is SUCH a beautiful location for the ceremony and there are so few weddings during the season that you're not competing with 10 other brides on the day of your weddding ;)

We could not have been more pleased with the gorgeous wedding reception at the Beach Club, in the Beach House ballroom. Teresa was fabulous as our liaison, the consummate coordinator. Everything was picture perfect, the food incredible, venue was simply spectacular....this was the wedding of my daughter's dreams! Everything was just what she and her husband wanted, and exactly what my husband and I hoped to give them! We could not have asked for more!!

The CBBC is truely amazing. They are VERY flexible and really try to work with you on everything you want for the day of your wedding. Erin and Teresa are both easy going and very responsive to any questions you have throughout the process. I would give 100+ stars for their work on the actual wedding day. They make sure you have NOTHING to worry about. The wedding day went so smoothly. They work with all your vendors the day of so you don't have to be involved in any of the "behind the scenes" work. The venue is beyond beautiful and the food was amazing (much better than at the tasting!!!). My guests raved about the food (only wedding I have ever been to where people actually complemented on the food!) and they raved about the look of the venue. I was told by some guest, it was the most beautiful reception venue they have seen! I have no regrets and would recommend the CBBC to anyone!

The CBBC is amazing! My husband and I wanted to get married on the water and fell in love as soon as we saw the place. It was our second venue we visited and we stopped looking right after. The view is spectacular especially when the sun is setting. Erin was so pleasent to work with. She made you feel at ease the second that you spoke with her. Everyone else that I came into contact with that day couldn't have been nicer. They sure to make sure that your wedding day is a first class experience. The food was great! The mahi mahi wth crab salsa was to die for! My husband loved it and he doesn't eat fish. The CBBC was worth every penny that we spent. I would recommend this venue to anyone!!

The Beach Club is the perfect place to have a wedding! We fell in love with the Beach House Ballroom and lawn the first day we went to look at venues and knew we had to have our wedding there. Everyone there was as excited about our wedding day as we were! The facilities are gorgeous and the service is outstanding. All the food at our tasting was so good we had a hard time deciding what to serve at our wedding! And the pictures on the beach are unbelievable!

We only looked at one reception site, because after we saw this place we didn’t want to get married anywhere else. Everything about the Club was beyond our expectations. The food was simply amazing. From our appetizers to the desserts, the guests couldn’t stop raving about how much they enjoyed it. (Just as a word of advice: the crab balls are a must for the cocktail hour!) The setting was pure beauty and our photos couldn’t look any better. Most of all though it is the outstanding service which really blew us away on our wedding day. From the greeting at the door for our wedding party to the individual service for the bride and groom, the Beach Club took care of everything. For example, when a few of our guests got lost on the way to the venue one of the CBBC staff members took one of our guests, in his personal car, to find the lost guests, making sure they were there for our first dance. There was nothing they wouldn’t do for us or our guests. All you had to do was ask and they made sure it happened. The Beach Club was worth every single penny. Teresa and her staff made sure everything was perfect. If you want the day to be perfect, then the Beach Club is your location. Once you see it you’ll fall in love, and once you have your reception there you’ll have memories to love forever.

Fantastic! Fantastic! Fantastic! We have received a ton of compliments on our reception choice! The staff was friendly, accomodating, and professional at every turn! In addition to that, the location and views can't be beat!

The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club was fantastic. The staff was helpful, responsive, organized and professional. They anticipated every need of our guests, the bridal party and our families. The setting is beautiful, the food was great, and our guests had a great time.

The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club is a five-star facility. The professional staff was as spectacular as the waterfront views. Dereck Janes and his staff accommodated each and every need and offered wonderful ideas as to how to make our day even more special. Our guests were treated with as much respect as the wedding party. We couldn't have planned a wedding without them.

excellent! perfect day, perfect food, perfect staff - Erin was excellent to work with and even helped us bring the price down some. worth the extra money to have the less stress!

My husband and I had such an amazing experience with Chesapeake Bay Beach Club for our summer wedding! We wanted our wedding to be different than any one that we had been to. We are from Delaware and most people who want something “different” get married on the Delaware Beaches (since so many people get married there it isn’t so different!) We had been looking for a few months but just were not happy with the places we had been visiting. When I mentioned the Annapolis area, CBBC immediately popped up on the computer. We went for an Open House and we feel in love with the entire venue! We ended up choosing the Beach House Tavern because of all the areas available to us and our guests. I could not have asked for a better venue and services provided by the CBBC. Since this was pretty much a “destination” wedding, none of my guests had been here. I cannot even count ALL the compliments and comments my guests said about the venue and staff. After the wedding, there were people telling me about the services provided to them throughout the night that I was unaware of. I absolutely loved everything about Chesapeake Bay Beach Club, the staff and the view from the venue is amazing!

Best Wedding Ever...I cannot tell you how many people have said that to us! We feel like the CBBC and the band made it the best wedding ever! My Mom and I canvased the entire Eastern Shore looking for a wedding venue on the water. The Bay Beach Club was the first place we looked at and my favorite all along but we kept searching only to come back to the CBBC because it is the absolute BEST place to have a wedding on the water. Teresa was our wedding coordinator and she was MORE than helpful! She is an expert at what she does and so is the entire staff there. It is a top-notch, classy venue!!! I dropped off all my goodies (decor) a couple days before the wedding with detailed notes. Teresa displayed everything perfectly! On the day of the wedding, Teresa and the staff kept the guests flowing and made sure they were seated when necessary, etc. However, they accomplished this with smiles! I have been to weddings before when the staff seemed so miserable - NOT at the CBBC...all the staff was so pleasant and helpful. My Mom's friends kept commenting how quickly they served dinner. They could NOT believe the entire room of 280 people were eating at the same time. Everyone is still talking about the food too. Our guests LOVED the mashed potato bar and the fruit sips. These were a huge hit along with the crab cakes. The food was delicious!!! The CBBC will not miss ONE detail! We never had a line at the bar...people could get drinks easily. I really cannot say enough about the quality and class the CBBC presented at our wedding. They are professionals at what they do...I would recommend this venue to ANY bride and groom!

The CBBC Is such a beautiful venue. The constant communication and individual attention with Erin made me feel so comfortable and at ease throughout the planning process of the entire wedding. The staff is very friendly and professional and they ran the wedding timeline perfectly. The food is delicious and excellent in presentation. I'm so glad to have had such a perfect wedding at the perfect venue site.

The folks at the Bay Beach Club were such a breeze to work with. It was so worth it to book them and feel like I didn't have to worry about ANY detail. I was planning everything from across the country and they didn't miss a beat. The food was AMAZING...we wished we could have taken some plates home!!! There were two other weddings going on the night we had our reception and we would not have even noticed except for the three bride/grooms taking photos at sunset on the beach at the same time! Haha.

We absolutely loved the CBBC. We worked with Teresa and she was so helpful, knowledgeable, patient, and fun! Every detail and dream I had for our wedding was executed perfectly, and the wedding and reception were just beautiful. It was always my dream to have my wedding at the CBBC and it was just as perfect as I imagined it would be. My only word of caution would be that if you have your wedding on a rooftop deck to make sure to have a runner put down. My dress got quite dirty, which you expect it to during the wedding, but had I had a runner put down, it wouldn't have gotten quite as bad.

This venue was beautiful! The weather was perfect for our outdoor ceremony looking over the bay and bay bridge. The food was outstanding, and everything was set up and run very nicely!

If you're considering this venue, go for it! We couldn't have asked for a better location for our ceremony and reception, or for better people to work with. Teresa was our coordinator and handled everything perfectly. I of course had tons of questions and she was very quick to get back to me and always had answers and suggestions for everything. They take care of everything down to the very last detail without blinking an eye. We chose not to have a rehearsal and showed up that day and everything went very smoothly. They had everything in order and I wasn't getting bombarded with questions so I was able to relax and have a great time. It is pricey but it's totally worth every penny. I have no regrets and we have already talked about having an anniversary party at the Beach Club! I hope we get invited to a wedding there so we can enjoy it even more!

I'm so blessed to have been married in such a beautiful and unique venue. The staff is unbelievable and extremely knowledgeable on all planning details. I mostly worked with Erin Janes. Erin was truly a pleasure...she listened to me and made everything happen just the way I imagined. I had little to worry about and that's all a bride can hope for. I'm sad it's all over!!!CBBC is fantastic...I highly recommend getting married here. They are professional, organized and patient. My dreams came true a few weeks ago, and it's all thanks to them.Mary Christy

This is an awesome site with great people. They are so easy to work with and are very helpful with any questions you may have. The site is also beautiful. We had the most prefect day and were catered to by the staff.

If you want kind, experienced, and truly decent people in charge of your wedding, than please have your wedding here. The CBBC has the beautiful views, the wonderful staff, and the knowledge from being in business for over 10 years to make your wedding day truly special. They have tours every Saturday morning which makes viewing the venue so simple, and the owner himself, John Wilson, often provides the guided tours. The food, service, and attention to detail made our wedding day completely flawless. Even the weather was beautiful! This is the premiere wedding site for the quintessential Maryland wedding�the Chesapeake Bay, the Bay Bridge, and Crab Cakes � what more could you ask for? Erin Janes and the entire CBBC staff created an absolutely perfect wedding. They even offer to clean the sand off your feet after taking pictures on the beach ;) Now that is going above and beyond! I would also highly recommend a Sunday wedding - we rented two houses on the eastern shore for our families and bridal party, so we were able to spend an entire weekend together (he with his guys and me with my girls). Rehearsals are on Friday, so you can have the weekend to relax, get manicures/pedicures (or take out the boat as the guys did!), and enjoy an entire wedding weekend. I have so many wonderful memories with my bridesmaids now, that I never would of had if we were married on a Saturday.

CBBC was the first place we walked into when looking for our wedding/reception location- it was also our last. We fell in love with it from the start. Yes, CBBC is on the expensive side. With that in mind however, everything was first class. We had several bar packages and food choices to pick from and when it came to the alcohol, we were told we could have anything... if they did not have it, they would order it. Our guests still talk about the perfectly prepared Filet and amazing appetizers. Our wedding coordinator was amazing. There is no other word for Erin Janes. She made me feel like the most important person in the world throughout the entire process. I had planned an outdoor wedding- it was my dream. Of course, it rained the day of and Erin supported me 100% in whatever decided to do. And so, we were married outside in the rain- Erin did not try to talk me out of it and the staff had EVERY single chair dried for my guests- they dried them as each guest sat down and even provided the bridal party with extra umbrellas. I did not have to think of a single thing on my wedding day and hey took care of anything and everything for us. I cannot say enough about CBBC and their staff- simply amazing people. I would recommend CBBC to anyone who is looking for perfection and who wants to actually sleep the night before their wedding instead of worry.

CBBC was a joy to work with from start to finish! Erin Janes was our wedding coordinator and she was just so sweet and so refreshing to work with! She handles EVERYTHING and honestly, the only thing we had to do was pick the food for the reception and drop off all the decorations with a list of directions for where I wanted everything to go and the folks at CBBC did the rest!The food tasting was so fun-a morning of eating and drinking and tasting EVERYTHING CBBC has to offer from their menu!The view was breathtaking on our beautiful September wedding day and the food and details of the ballroom was PERFECT! Although it's a bit pricey to hold a wedding here I don't regret ANYTHING as you surely get what you pay for! I wish I could do it all over again!Thanks Erin and CBBC for making my wedding a dream come true!!! xoxox

Where do I start!! This place is amazing, they really cater to your every need, I am so pleased with the way our Wedding at CBBC turned out. I have had so many compliments and people telling me how attentive the staff were and how beautiful everything was. The location is wonderful, having the Chesapeake Bay and the infamous Bay Bridge as your back drop is the epitome of Maryland. Of course there famous Crab Cakes help too!! Before I chose the CBBC I looked at many places and nothing compared to the detail and nature beauty of this place. They take pride in making your Wedding Day turn out perfectly! I also want to mention Teresa, she was so accommodating and ready and willing to help me with everything and all the million questions that I had.It would not have been the same with out her!

Chesapeake Bay Beach Club was THE perfect wedding venue. The day-of and pre-event planning services were best-in-class. They accomodated all of our wishes, and were so attentive to detail. I didn't have to worry about one thing the day of the wedding - the staff took care of everything for us. The site itself offers the most beautiful pictures you could ask for. The lawns are perfect for ceremonies. Our guests commented that they've never been to a better wedding venue (our local guests even wished that they had heard of the Beach Club for their own weddings!). I HIGHLY recommend the Beach Club!!!

The staff at the CBBC really helped to make our wedding amazing!!! Our "captain" for the night kept us on track so that everything was on time. The weather was not the best but that did not matter because the staff were very helpful and flexible to allow for us to have a beautiful day.

The CBBC is amazing! It was the first and only venue I visited. When I saw the grounds and facilities, I made up my mind on the spot. Erin Janes was our coordinator and she was fantastic. I planned my wedding from Texas and from Virigina. She was so helpful and responsive with any questions I had. Even though it is a bit pricey; it is so worth it. My wedding was fabulous! The food was so amazingly delicious. The menu is so diverse and the chefs will even try and create something to add your own personal touch. We had little grilled cheese sandies with a "shot" of tomato basil soup as an appetizer. So basic...yet so delicious. All of our guests kept telling us how beautiful the venue was and how amazing the food was (something every bride and groom would love to hear). Also, we did not have to worry about a thing; everything was taken care of. This allowed us to really focus on ourselves, our guests and really have a great time. The night was perfect and ran so smoothly thanks to Erin and the staff at the CBBC. I could not have been luckier with how amazing and perfect my wedding was. I would definitely recommend the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club for any special event. They go above and beyond!

My fiance and I wanted a waterfront wedding and we had heard great things about CBBC. It was the first and only place we visited. Once we saw it, we knew that we had to have our wedding at this gorgeous venue. The staff was friendly, helpful, courteous and professional from the open house through the entire planning process, and was exceptional on the day of our wedding. They truly went above and beyond our expectations in helping our wedding day run smoothly. Not only do you get a gorgeous venue, but the catering, tables/chairs, linens and china are handled by them as well.Our guests raved about how beautiful the grounds and facilities are and were very impressed by the staff.I highly recommend this venue. It is worth every penny!

When I was searching online for a wedding venue, CBBC kept showing up but I wasn't paying attention to it. After visitng some places and not liking many of them (hotels, mansions, wineries) I decided to take my fiance and parents to CBBC. As soon as we arrived, we said "this is it"!!I LOVED my wedding at the CBBC. I worked with Teresa and she was fabulous from Day 1 all the way through the event. I had a Persian wedding ceremony which is quite elaborate and perhaps difficult for Americans to understand - but she did everything she could to make it perfect! She worked closely with my day-of coorindator (from Wedding Savvy - also wonderful!!). My parents also loved Teresa and we all looked forward to every meeting with her. My wedding was in the Beach House Ballroom on a Saturday night. While it was a little pricey, on the day of the event, all I could say was that it was ALL worth it - every penny! They got every single detail right - and "hosted" the best evening. So many of my guests could not believe how beautiful the venue was and how professional the staff was. My pictures are amazing because of the backdrop (the ocean and the manicured lawns). The food was outstanding and that is even an understatement!!! We had filet and crabcakes and so many people told me those were the best they'd ever eaten. Also we had the chocolate fountain which was a site in itself. I cannot say enough great things - during the entire year of planning, I saw how accommodating Teresa was to make my every vision happen and am so thankful that she made my wedding process so easy for me. And lastly, they hosted a couple of events to introduce us to their preferred vendors which was also really helpful. And their food tasting event was absolutely wonderful - I don't think I tried anything I didn't like. I am so thankful for the CBBC - it was the wedding of our dreams!

We worked with Erin, got married on the deck and used the sunset/garden rooms for our reception. It is a pricey venue but all I can say is that our day was absolutely perfect and worth every dollar. I wouldn't change a thing. the beach club went above and beyond. and you would never know there are other weddings going on at the same time because you feel like the star. the only thing that went wrong, which really can't be controlled, was my bustle broke before the first dance, and Erin fixed that in a flash!!!!

Absolutely beautiful! We had our ceremony on the roof top deck and reception in the sunset room and everything was perfect. This is not the cheapest place you will find, but it is well worth your money. We worked with Teresa and she is very responsive and helpful. They do their best to make your wedding a classy event. The food is fantastic and the tasting event is so much fun. This is a great venue for pictures.

We had my daughter's ceremony and reception here 4/25/09. The lawn used for the ceremony was perfect. The views of the Chesapeake Bay and the bridge were breathtaking...especially the sunset. Teresa our consultant was most helpful, I could not have been more pleased. The location is splendid, the food was beyond excellent and the service was great. We arrived and did not have to worry about any details. The entire day was timed down to the minute and there was not a flaw. It is nearly a year later and friends are still telling me it was by far the best wedding/reception they attended. I would highly recommend it.

The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club was an amazing setting for our wedding ceremony and reception. They run truly flawless events. We worked with Erin who was a fantastic resource. She thought of everything before we had to worry about it. In fact, we did not need a wedding planner because Erin filled the role. She did everything from helping us put together the menu to organizing our processional and running our rehearsal. The staff at CBBC is incredible. I never saw a cocktail napkin sit for more than 30 seconds! I have received endless compliments from our guests on the food, drinks, setting, etc. Although the CBBC does many, many weddings, I always felt they devoted more than a fair amount of time and attention to my wedding. Deciding to book our wedding at CBBC was one of the best (if not the best) decisions we made in the planning process!

Our outdoor ceremony had to be moved inside at the last minute due to the weather and Chesapeake was very accomodating. They created a beautiful, intimate, indoor ceremony that was the next best alternative. They went above and beyond our expectations and made sure that the weather was the least of my concerns on our big day! My only complaint is that one of their staff members threw away the box to our toasting flutes and we now have nothing to store them in! They were Lenox Crystal Flutes with Crystals in the Stem so that did irritate me that despite having our name clearly displayed on the box, someone threw it away because they are no longer available for sale as they were discontinued.

We selected the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club because of its physical beauty and location overlooking the water, and the Chesapeake Bay Bridge that my husband and I have crossed so many times. It was the twentieth (or so) place I had seen, but had so much character and at the same time was very cosy. I was instantly in love with the place when I saw its long winding beach and the plants and scenery alongside of the venue. The staff worked very closely with me to help me figure out what we needed, and were extremely flexible. We were putting together a service that was to accommodate people from many different countries. They worked with me to provide a food station of Turkish food (my husband is from Turkey), and gave me suggestions on the smallest details of the day - such as color schemes, sashes for chairs and decorations I could bring to the venue myself.The food was fantastic – we have had so many compliments from our friends and family. And the view from the new rooftop deck was so lovely it took our breath away. We have heard things such as, this was the best wedding our guests had ever been to!Our vendors were all superb - and had come to me as recommendations from the Beach Club flyers and staff. The service was wonderful, there was nothing missed and everything went absolutely smoothly. The wedding services manager worked closely with me, and even when I had the 'bridezilla' moments, she kept her cool and was able to help guide me with a sense of humor and lots of enthusiasm. She was also very helpful on the day and left little for us to worry about. I am absolutely positive that I picked the best location for a wedding on this coat of the United States, I could not have been happier with how everything turned out, and with the supportiveness and professionalism shown to us on the day, and throughout the process. Thanks so much to Erin and her staff. They are people that make dreams come true. There is no better venue, I am certain.

This venue was the perfect site for our wedding. Everything was wonderful - I highly recommend it.

CBBC was an amazing venue! They were extremly flexible and responsive on the wedding day and tried to make the day run as smoothly as possible so you did not have to stress and be able to enjoy your celebration.

Everything was wonderful! I highly recommend this venue. It was an amazing reception, the food was fantastic, service was impeccable. It's pricey $$$$ but worth it and pretty standard for a venue of this caliber. The waterfront view/location of this property is unmatched in the Annapolis area. Teresa was a joy to work with. They made our night incredible!

Awesome venue!!! The wedding planners were absolutely fabulous, they couldn't have been more helpful and accomodating. The setting is gorgeous and provided the most perfect day for us!

We investigated a lot of locations for my daughter's wedding but we chose CBCC in large part because we got the feeling that the staff had the experience and skills to put together a fabulous event. We had very high expectations and they did not disappoint. From the very beginning of the process until the last guest left, they made us feel like our wedding was their only focus. When we pulled up in the limosine on the day of the wedding and saw all of the staff standing there with headsets on awaiting our arrival, we felt like royalty. We had a lot of things to pack into a six hour time span and they did a fantastic job ensuring that things ran like clockwork despite dealing with things out of their control. Almost every detail was as we had specified which is truly remarkable considering how many details they needed to get right. All of our guests just raved about the food and we were so impressed with the quality and presentation of everything. The rockfish was some of the best I have had anywhere. Some of our guests who have dined all around the world are still raving about the excellent food. Even the drinks were beautifully presented. The grounds we lovely, the restrooms were sparkling, the temperature inside the ballrooms was perfect, the bartenders were friendly, and the organization of the event was impeccable. I am sure I am forgetting to mention so much else that went right because it all seemed so seamless and beautiful. My daughter and her husband were thrilled and our guests were completely delighted and impressed. Fair warning, though, that everyone will RSVP in the affirmative because no one wants to miss a CBCC wedding!

Erin and her team couldn't have been any better! They are true professionals and terrific at what they do. Everything was just amazing. I would highly recommend the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club and their team of professionals!

I could go on for pages on how the CBBC was not only the most incredible, beautiful, relaxed yet organized, and sensational location for our September wedding but also how they totally saved us! We were five weeks out from the big day and another nearby venue which for the time being will remain nameless was basically giving us the cold shoulder. That is a completely separate story that almost ended in tragedy. Quick overview: with 5 weeks to go we didn't have a final contract, final menu, or anything really set in stone (mind you we have been planning and discussing everything with said venue for over a YEAR). We were getting the run-around and it almost brought us to the breaking point. The near tragedy turned into a miracle when my mother in law decided we needed an emergency plan B should things with venue A turn sour. Well things went from bad to worse and it was becoming clear that we might not have a wedding at all. Well the CBBC was beyond a breath of fresh air. We knew this place did a lot of weddings and yet they treated us like we were the only ones that mattered and had their undivided attention. They were relaxed like we were, weren't trying to force us into any sort of mold or menu, were as flexible as possible given our relatively restricted budget and all said and done saved our asses! We were one step away from hopping a flight to Vegas while cursing the day we ever decided to have a traditional wedding (we're not really the traditional type). Well, come wedding day everything was gorgeous, comfy, and flowed so smoothly you would have thought the day was scripted. Our guests marveled at the gorgeous ballroom (Beach house ballroom for the reception) as much as the gorgeous bay backdrop. We didn't get a chance to have a tasting as we're from the Philly area and a trekk to MD with 5 weeks to go wasn't going to happen. No worries there- everything was superb. This coming from two mega food snobs is really saying something. Our guests couldn't have agreed more. I received compliment from "best tuna" apps "ever" to "filet so tender you don't need a knife!" Everyone left stuffed and happy. I'm happy to gush on to anyone that wants more info and willing to listen. The crew here is top notch and really blew us away. They took a day we were essentially dreading and completely turned it around into quite literally the best day of our lives and a party that will live on in infamy. In short..I would highlighy, without a doubt recommend the CBBC...even if you're in the Philly area- you MUST check this place out. :))

The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club was the perfect venue for my wedding. It had the most beautiful settings, the staff was wonderful, and the food was amazing. I received wonderful feedback from my guests about CBBC. My wedding day was very organized and I did not need to worring about a thing. For brides looking for a waterfront venue with amazing service, CBBC is the place for you.

We fell in love with the CBBC as soon as we'd seen the venue. My husband and I wanted to get married on the water, and the setting at the CBBC is just beautiful!We worked with Teresa, and she is absolutely wonderful. She was very responsive and flexible with what we needed, took extra steps to ensure I was happy with the rain plan when we arranged the contract, and on the day of she made the sure the wedding went perfectly, which kept me calm and happy the whole day. The staff were very friendly, all the decorations I had dropped off were set up exactly as I had asked, and overall the day was just absolutely fantastic. In addition, the food was wonderful and we received many compliments on the cocktail hour appetizers as well as the crab cakes for dinner! Thank you to the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club for such a beautiful wedding!

The CBBC knows what they are doing when it comes to weddings. Working with them was easy and pretty much effortless. The venue is gorgeous, the food is outstanding, and the service is wonderful.

The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club provided me with the wedding of my dreams! My guest had so much fun, and my husband and I wouldn't have changed a thing about our day! Erin Janes was so easy to work with and was always so pleasant! I would book this place again in a heatbeat!

The first time I saw the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club, I knew it was my dream wedding location. It is absolutely amazing and gorgeous! Teresa (our contact) was so helpful in everything from helping me with all the little details to choosing other vendors in the area. Everything runs so smoothly because of their professionalism and expertise in what they do. I would recommend the Beach Club over and over again, it's worth every penny!

For a hectic start to a wedding day with thunderstorms and traffic, the CBBC staff handled every detail perfectly. They kept me calm and followed through on all of the agreements in our contract. Teresa was an outstanding coordinator and made me feel supported and relaxed on my big day. The food and service was outstanding! I only wish I could do it over again for the waterfront pictures without rain!

The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club was the perfect setting for our wedding. With half of our 200 guests coming from out of state, CBBC provided the ultimate Maryland setting. Teresa worked with us on every detail and was always available to answer questions we had. On the day of the wedding it was managed with extreme professionalism and attention to detail. There was not one thing missing and we were able to enjoy the day and let the staff at CBBC take care of the rest. The setting with the rooftop patio for the cocktail hour was beautiful and guests were able to watch the sunset from there. The ballroom, food, and views were amazing. I am still getting compliments on the appetizers and meal (filet and crab cake). It was not your typical wedding food. We heard the compliment "best wedding ever" from many guests and we have CBBC, in large part, to thank!

What an amazing site. The views are unmatched by any other Chesapeake Bay Waterfront site. Erin and Theresa were an absolute pleasure to work with. They were accommodating and easy to reach. I used to Sunset Ballroom and I am still getting compliments from guests after 6 months. The rooftop deck is wonderful and my guests enjoyed dancing in the garden room.

Wonderful view and absolutely wonderful staff. They did everything from set the tables up to consoling me (it had started to rain). I had wanted an outside wedding and their outside options are truly wonderful (gorgeous lawn right by the beach). Their "Plan B" worked out well, which was to hold the wedding inside the reception hall (which is breathtaking with all the windows and sunlight). The food was wonderful too (the crab cakes are delicious). Although they can be on the pricier side, they do give you options to keep the costs down. Overall wonderful staff and wonderful venue.

We loved the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club from the moment we first saw it. As with any big event, we had some stressful moments in the planning process, but we were mostly pleased with their help prior to the wedding. We especially appreciated the tasting they do, which allows you to sample many of the menu options in a different settings in their 3 ballrooms. It was a very nice touch and helped us get excited for our wedding.They really came through on our wedding day. We were so impressed with the professionalism of the whole staff. They took care of us all night and we could not have been happier. Everything went perfectly and they helped make our wedding so memorable. All of our guests raved about the food (get the crabcakes). The CBBC venue is truly amazing and the staff do a great job running the event. We would highly recommend hosting your wedding here.

CBBC did an amazing job on our wedding! They were very professioanl and definitely know what they're doing. The venue is gorgeous, and I recieved countless compliments on how great the staff were.

I knew that I wanted to use the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club right away. I looked at other venues, but the gorgeous location, reputation, and convenience of it all hooked me.Looking back, CBBC put on an amazing wedding. If I had to do it all over again, I absolutely would have the wedding there again.I chose the Beach House location because the set up seemed to flow best, and it's pretty much secluded from the rest of the venue. There was another wedding happening during our event and you never would have known it.Teresa was my wedding planner, and on the day of, Sharon was the assistant to help everything run.Teresa is by far the best thing at CBBC. She is so nice, but very professional, and she means business. She's very responsive and was always willing to answer every little question, meet with me when I needed to, and always communicated when she would be in and out of the office so I wasn't drumming my fingers, waiting for her to return a phone call or email.On the wedding day, both Teresa and Sharon were powerhouses. Any little thing that went not as planned, they were on it immediately. When I entered the reception, the uplighting I had ordered was not on. I told Sharon about it, and the next time I went into the room (about 5 minutes later) they were on! Sharon also was there to help me with little things, like safety pinning my bustle on my dress when it broke, and packing up champagne, glasses, and slices of cake for my husband and I for after the wedding.Overall, the CBBC were flexible when working with me about timeline, food choices, custom drinks, etc. We did a beer and appetizer "tasting" station and the chef personally created appetizer choices to pair with our favorite beers.The only thing I would caution about the club is if you're on a budget, this is not the space for you. Everything costs something there, and they will get you on the tiniest of costs. It adds up very quickly, so be careful. It can be confusing at times, and I wish those little costs were communicated a little bit better. For example, they will show you table set ups that look gorgeous, but you have to rent the colored tablecloths, different glassware, chargers, napkins, etc. If not, everything will be ivory. But honestly, it was worth the money. The drinks, the food, the appetizers, all the customization, was all excellent and made the entire day perfect. Plus, I figured we paid for the convenience of it all. Using the CBBC, I didn't have to work with a separate ceremony location, caterer, rental company, wedding planner, etc.It was all worth it in the end and I would highly recommend this venue to anyone willing to pay for a gorgeous and fabulous wedding.

The Beach Club provided amazing service for our wedding. Everything ran smoothly and the staff was very efficient and accommodating to our guests. As the wedding date grew closer the Beach Club was much faster with responding quickly to emails. The location is amazing and we wouldn't have changed a thing.

This is an absolutely beautiful venue with a terrific staff working to make your wedding day perfect. You may find yourself sighing at the price tag as you go along as well as their inflexibility when it comes to alterations in the contract, but your wedding day will go incredibly smoothly, everything will be beautiful, the food will be delicious, and your guests will have a great time - as will you. During our wedding planning we had often heard people say it is difficult to enjoy the day because as the bride and groom you are often doing so much. This is not the case with the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club. Not only will you not have a worry in the world (nor anyone else in your family/bridal party) but things will magically appear before you realized you wanted them (an appetizer tray or cocktail for instance). After everything is over, you will have nothing but fond memories of the Beach Club.

the venue is beautiful. if you are looking for a smooth wedding go here. DJ was amazing to work with and i could not believe how smooth the evening went. the food was fantastic, i recommend the crab cakes and filet mignon. the only issue i had was the planning of the wedding. the wedding coordinator did not provide many suggestions and was not as helpful as i imagined she would be. but the 'captain' was awesome and the setting is breathtaking

I would highly reccomend the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club. The service and location were fantastic. The Bay Beach Club is one of the few venues in the area that is actually on the bay. The sand, lawns, and unique interiors are exceptional and make for a fantastic setting and even better pictures. Teresa, our contact person, was super easy to get in touch with and was exceptionally organized. I forgot to include vegetarians in my final headcount and Teresa reminded me that I had mentioned them in our very first meeting - how is that for service! The food is all really good and the staff during the reception were helpful and friendly. The business is mostly family run and everyone has a great attitude. When we went to the tasting we got to meet other couples and experience an event through the eyes of the visitor, it was a lot of fun.The beach club has four different venues to choose from which all over different pricing and size options. We went for the Tavern Ballroom for its unique cathedral cieling and old ship feeling (also, our wedding was very small, 100 people- which you can only do on Sundays). The downside of all these venues is that there WILL be another wedding at the same time yours is. However, the staff does a great job of keeping the weddings seperate and it never bothered me once. (Though I think we made some noise during their ceremony while we were having our pictures taken). Teresa was very flexible and had lots of rain back-ups (in the end the weather was beautiful!). The only negative thing I can think of is the expense for food and the fact that lots of things aren't included that are at other sites. For example, most catering companies will provide a lot of centerpiece bits and pieces (like hurrican shades or glass,etc) but the beach club does not. Everything has a cost, from the napkin folds to having different color linens. The cost of the food adds up very quickly here, but in the end it was worth it. We've received so many outstanding compliments from our guests. We didn't get any of the extras (like colored linens, etc) but it doesn't matter because the site is so gorgeous you don't need to decorate at all. I would recommend this site to my friends and would chose it again if I was doing it all over.

Everyone at the CBBC was a pleasure and a delight to work with. The venue was in perfect condition and they always went above and beyond to make the day perfect for us!

After looking at many wedding venues, this turned out to be the perfect place for us. We had our wedding outside and used the Beach House room and Tavern for the reception. The food was incredible and many of our guests commented that it was the best food they ever had at a wedding. The staff was extremely kind and helpful and not a detail was missed. We went away feeling like our wedding was exactly how we wanted it to be and CBBC really helped make that happen.

We had a beautiful wedding at CBBC. We have had rave reviews from family and friends ever since our wedding day. The setting on the water there, especially during sunset, is just amazing. The service, food, atmosphere was all superb. Everyone was very professional, helpful in the planning process and followed through til we walked out the door at the end of our reception . . with slices of our cake, champagne and a sweet note. We searched for months for the perfect place, through NY, NJ and MD and were thrilled with our choice. Can't beat it!!

We had just our reception at Chesapeake Bay Beach Club. The place was beautiful and the food was delicious! We had the best time and the view was breathtaking and gave us phenomenal pictures. The venue is a little more expensive, but we are very glad we had our reception there. The staff was fantastic and were amazing that day, and the service was top notch. Having a "wedding planner" from the venue for that day helped save us. While walking around to say hello to our guests, my husband stepped on my dress and popped by bustle loop. Erin, our planner, didn't miss a beat. She quickly took us up to the bridal suite where she sowed a bustle onto my dress and we were back celebrating within a few minutes!

I want to thank the staff at CBBC, particularly Erin, for helping us have the most beautiful and memorable wedding. It was even more perfect than what I had envisioned. This was the perfect venue for us. When we were looking for our ceremony/reception venue, we were looking for a place by the water. A few of the other places we saw were too cheesy, some were too small, some were too expensive. But this was just perfect. You could make this venue as casual as you want or as formal as you want. It would accomodate any style. Ours was more on the simple but elegant side. We had just 100 guests so we had the Tavern ballroom, which was just perfect.The venue itself was so beautiful that we really didn't do much in terms of decoration. We just had simple red tulips and some turquoise candles. We were fortunate to have the ceremony outside. It was a full sunny day (April 30) and the ceremony started at 5pm. Maybe a little too sunny for some guests. In retrospect, I think I would have liked a little later start time since the sun didn't set until about 7:30. Food was delicious. If you select fish, you absolutely must do the Chilean Sea Bass. It was even better than the steak option. Everyone complimented the fish. Our guests also kept telling us how great the appetizers were. The oyster-andouille were the biggest hit, especially the way it was served in the spoons. Others also loved the chorizo-fig. The trio of soups were at the table so the guests sat down to a beautiful table of colors. The soups were in the little shot glasses so it was such a beautiful display. Everyone also loved the sliders that we served near the end of the evening. Those were a hit.Our guests are not heavy drinkers so we just did the Pay per Consumption option. I think the bartenders must have been very honest, because we actually got money back since we overpaid for our drinks. As for the staff, they were just top notch. Everytime I met with Erin, she allayed all my fears. I always felt better after meeting with her (twice). In the beginning (last fall), she was very difficult to reach. I left messages but it would take a while for her to get back to me. I found that e-mail worked really well. But once the winter rolled around, Erin was much more accessible. But looking back, I really didn;t need to start planning with her until about 3-4 months before our wedding. And then everything just took shape. She worked out a great timeline for us. On the rehearsal day and the day of, Erin was incredible. You can tell she's done this a thousand times. She was so calm and she had everything cued to a tee. She worked well with all the vendors. Our captain that was assigned to us was Sherry and she was also incredible. Just got everything done. Such professionals. They even made sure that our wedding party was served with drinks and appetizers during cocktail hour when we were all on the beach taking photos. I thought I was going to be missing all that! Not at all. Sure the venue is a little pricier than others, but it was well worth it. I have the most beautiful memories and photos to last a life time. You can't beat that. Lastly, even though we had a beautiful spring wedding day, I think this venue would be wonderful even in the winter. The views of the water and the bridge are still breathtaking even in the winter. We went to a tasting during the blizzard, and it looks beautiful in the snow. Still beautiful without the snow.Erin - You are spectacular. Thank you for making our wedding day so special.

The Beach Club is an outstanding venue and I would highly recommend it. For starters, the location and architecture is beautiful! The food is delicious! I worked with both Erin and Teresa and they were both so easy to work with. It definitely is on the more expensive side, especially for simple things like coffee, soda, and water BUT I did not worry about a single thing the night of my wedding. I walked into the ballroom and entered my dream wedding! Teresa and Greg took care of everything! Every time I turned they were offering me a drink, my guests did not have to wait in line for the bar, the servers were friendly! Just PERFECT! My husband and I were truly treated like royalty for the night!

What an amazing day our wedding day turned out to be, thanks to the help of the Beach Club! The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club offers such great photo opportunities. We could not be happier with our pictures. ANd the food was amazing. I would definately recommend the Crabcakes and don't miss out on the chocolate fountain!

The CBBC is stunning and a gorgeous backdrop for your wedding. A much better alternative to stuffy and character-less hotels. The space is limited in size, though, and you have to shut down at midnight. Other than that, the place is perfect for both the ceremony and the reception, and the views and sunset are unbeatable. Great food and excellent service.

The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club was THE MOST beautiful spot in Maryland to have the wedding. Everyone was very impressed and said it was the best wedding they have ever been to. We have GORGEOUS pictures.

CBBC was my dream location. My husband and I wanted on the beach, and since Aruba was a bit expensive and out of the question... we decided to look around the Chesapeake Bay. I stepped foot on the location and called my mom saying we found the location! The staff is outstanding. The food is wonderful! They work with you the whole way - from the first walk through, the rehersal on site, meeting you when you arrive day of, and through the ceremony and reception. The made the day so much easier, and completely calmed my (and my mothers) nerves.

Our ceremony and reception were at the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club in the midst of a huge snowstorm! Our ceremony was in the garden room, and our reception was in the sunset ballroom. We were thrilled with the in-house catering, the organizing of our vendors and our day, and the beauty of this spot (especially in the snow!) We were walked through every step of the process, and it was fantastic to have someone shadowing us on the wedding day telling us where we were supposed to be and what we were supposed to be doing! We were blown away by the effort the entire staff made to make this day just as perfect as we had always imagined despite 2 feet of snow!

We wanted to get married on the water, and the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club was able to help us do that. In addition, as an individual with a milk allergy and a gluten intolerance, it was wonderful how willing they were to provide us with a menu of food that allowed me to eat without worry.While there was a lot of back and forth figuring out all of the details, and we couldn't always get straight answers, the wedding day was absolutely amazing and the service was impeccable.

CBBC is outstanding, but you pay for it. If it can be in your budget I highly recommend them. They are professional and really on their game. I didn't worry about one thing the night of my wedding, they handle everything from getting people where they need to be to the timeline, to dealing with vendors, etc. I worked with Erin and she was so sweet and always ready to answer questions, etc. They made sure my wedding was spectacular!

Chesapeake Bay Beach Club provided a beautiful, professional venue for both our ceremony and reception. They are very inflexible when it comes to costs - but of course will do nearly anything you want for a price. They absolutlely paid attention to the details and orchestrated the event perfectly. I highly reccomend the CBBC - it's a gorgeous place to have a wedding, and I hope they're around in 30 years when we renew our vows.

Teresa and her team really took care of everything that day. Everything was set up and according to my specifications. Planning process was very smooth and they handled my many changes and requests with ease and followed through the day of. We were unable to have a rehearsal with all our entire wedding party and Teresa was able to make the ceremony seamless. Venue was wonderful, food was amazing and the view was die for! Would definitely recommend to future brides.

I had the wedding of my dreams thanks to CBBC!

The ceremony and reception turned out wonderful! The food is amazing and the staff are very professional. Our Plan "B" was used. Since it stopped raining, we were able to have the ceremony in a separate room on the site instead of in the reception room and we have no complaints there.Only thing to mention, even though we were supposed to have sodas and snacks for in the bridal suite, we didn't. Other than that, everything went off without a problem!

The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club was a beautiful venue and they helped me to make it the best day of my life. Erin Janes is a joy to work with! My guests raved about how gorgeous the venue was, how delicious the food was, and how professional the staff was. All in all, I was very pleased with everything!

The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club is a highly sought after location for a wedding and rightly so. It is in a beautiful and dramatic setting and the interior is gorgeous, clean, and everything looks new. We had our ceremony out on the lawn and our reception in the more private Beach House Ballroom where guests enter through a private entrance that is separate from the other two ballrooms. It has a large porch with charming white rocking chairs and a wooden deck with tables and chairs and small lights hanging from the rafters. I loved having this area all to ourselves. Overall our experience here was great! Some of my comments may be seen as rather nit-picky but these are things I suggest other brides think about when planning a wedding here. Our event planner was Teresa who was very responsive and accomodating with most of my requests, such as having locally grown seasonal produce and sustainably fished Mahi Mahi. It would have been nice to see written proof or have talked to the Chef personally about whether these requests were honored but I did not want to be too demanding. We had an almost-rainy ceremony and I was impressed by the back-up plan they had for us during the rehearsal. Despite gloomy skies it fortunately did not rain! FYI to anyone getting married here: the rehearsal is very short, you only get 30 minutes, so come organized and prepared. The day-of went fairly smoothly. CBBC had staff there to direct people where to go, set-up quickly and organize the bridal party entrances, etc. I wish there had been a bit more coordination with the DJ for several reasons: to make sure the microphone had been working because unfortunately the readers could not be heard, delaying our reception intros until the music was working again (see my DJ review), and making sure the requested timeline was kept. Also, the acoustics in this room could be a bit better. The food was pretty good. The appetizer stations were beautifully presented on interesting glass platters and the heirloom tomato and mozzarella were excellent and the crab dip was very tasty and popular. My foody husband thought the main entree was "forgettable" but it was buffet style and we did choose chicken and fish, two things that are hard to do in a buffet. We didn't want red meat and crab cakes were not available on the buffet. I suppose I would recommend the seated dinner option for the best food. The desserts were great! I highly recommend the chocolate mousse with berries. It was SO popular I heard about it the next day. There were also chocolate covered strawberries and of course our wedding cupcakes. The alcohol selection was amazing! Everyone was really pleased and we were happy they got our requested beers: Fordham (local) and Guiness. But they also had a lot of other good microbrews and great wine. I think everyone went home happy! Be prepared to spend a lot of money at CBBC with not much wiggle room. We had our wedding on a Friday so got a discounted rate but still paid a lot for food and for the larger, more private Beach House. There was also a food price minimum so when our guest total fell a little shorter than we expected, we had to upgrade on stuff to meet the minimum. CBBC is a great wedding locale and our photos turned out great, even with the gloomy weather!

stay on top of the beach club as you are planning - somehow i got forgotten about - i think teresa is the best though (she changed my mind and calmed my nerves). the day of the event sharon worked with us and she was also great - on top of everything. we wish we would have known that we could bring a box for leftover cake - it was thrown away. we had wedding dress and mob hangers that were also thrown away that were in the bridal suite. they seemed very quick to get us out- guests told us they took away the bread and dips apps very quickly before alot of them had a chance to get to it - i mean is it really that hard to leave it out? we did pay for it and all...

The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club went far beyond our expectations for our wedding! They left no detail unattended to, and the end product was a seamless wedding, from start to finish. Many of our guests commented on how smoothly everything went, and how perfect a location it was. The only downside is that it is VERY popular now, partly due to its "Today Show" appearance, so booking at least a year in advance is a must! Also, it was a bit pricey for our budget (though now that we look back on it, it was totally worth every penny!). Another factor to consider is that you must go with their catering and their alcohol, which can be a blessing or a curse, depending on how you look at it. Now that we reflect on it, having CBBC take care of all food and drinks was just one less thing for us to worry about. Plus, the food was delicious! However, if you have another caterer in mind, or want to bring your own wine, you're out of luck!Christine was our coordinator, and she was a delight to work with! Overall, I'd highly recommend this venue.

This is a BEAUTIFUL location. You'll have a hard time finding competition for this location. Nothing can compare to the views and the rental space they give you. However, I think they know that and their customer service was sub par. They assign you a wedding day coordinator, who is supposed to provide the service of a wedding planner. Our planner was totally unresponsive, not answering emails for weeks at a time, and sometimes never returning calls at all, after trying to get in touch with them for days. If your wedding isn't a week away they try to ignore you, and aren't very much help. When it is a week a way, they do the bare minimum. The emails between the coordinator and myself were sometimes unprofessional, with tons of misspellings and broken English on her part. Luckily I was a super independent bride and didn't let any of their non professionalism bother me. If you plan on hiring outside help or planning the entire wedding on your own, I wouldn't rely on them for their customer service. Book them for their location, and don't expect much else.Their quality of food was OK. I am a bit of a food snob, so I might be biased in this. They tout award winning crab cakes, which to me were only okay. The actual execution on the day of was seem less however. I have to give them some credit. On they day of they had just the right amount of staff and they made sure everything was taken care of. If you've seen that commercial asking what if a film crew ran the world, showing a bride on her wedding day being shoved around, thats a bit what it felt like. Again, book for the location, don't expect much else.

Great location, great light, super professional staff, they get it all just right.

I absolutely love weddings at the Chesapeake Bay Beach Club! Every couple that I have ever photographed there left having one of the most beautiful weddings that I've ever seen. The quality, service, and venue is unparalleled in the Annapolis area! I highly recommend this venue to all newly engaged couples! Five stars!

The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club is simply gorgeous! It's a beautiful venue and every client that I have ever had who have had their wedding there have not been dissapointed. Everyone at the club is so helplful and responsive too. Really, just a wonderful venue!

I can't say enough about this venue! From Teresa Hunter to Erin Janes, to the rest of the employees that work at the CBBC, hands down is this one of the best premier places to get married. I've not only played here myself, but based on what I saw 'behind the scenes' as a vendor, decided to choose the CBBC for my own personal wedding. The best thing about the CBBC is that you're not just another wedding and a number; the amount of attention to detail is impeccable. Every time I visit this venue, it's always a sense of utmost drive for the most success for the event. No wonder this venue is as successful as they are; keep up the good work guys!!! Can't wait to see you next time!Chris Hartdj christopher hartWedding Coordinator / SpecialistDisc JockeyMaster Of CeremoniesProgram Director of the Baltimore Area Disc Jockey Association(410) 365-9710chris@djchrishart.comwww.djchrishart.com

We ALWAYS look forward to performing at Beach Club weddings! The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club is among the most stunning venues at which we play. Erin and Teresa coordinate every wedding confidently and with poise, and the bayside view (especially during sunset) just can't be beat! All of the outdoor patios also feel comfortable and like home with the elegant outdoor fireplaces and twinkling lights. The food is top notch as well--everyone must try the chocolate-covered cheesecake pops! Can't say enough good things about this venue!

The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club is one of my all time FAV venues to shoot at. I can't get bad pictures there! I have shot in all seasons and all weather conditions (except snow :) and LOVE the photos everytime! Their location is incredible, the decor is high end and their staff is unbelievable! Erin, Theresa and Derek are incredible to work with. The banquet managers are friendly and treat the guests wonderfully! Truly top notch!

CBBC is one of my favorite places to photograph! They are so organized and keep the day moving smoothly! The grounds and food are wonderful! You are in good hands when you choose to have your event here! I'll be seeing a lot of you this coming season!!

Fantastic Waterfront Wedding Venue.

Chesapeake Bay Beach Club is an amazing waterfront location for your wedding. Their impeccable attention to detail and their delicious food will be remembered by your guests for years to come. As a weddng planner, if you are looking for a waterfront venue, I highly recommend Bay Beach Club as the place for your ceremony and wedding.

Looking for a single word to describe every aspect of The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club and thinking of a word so unique that would just blow anyone's mind is impossible so I'll go with a classic term: "Perfect!"My experience with CBBC is personal and professional. They hosted my wedding in 2005 and it was more than I could've ever dreamed. I've been a preferred vendor for almost a decade and I look forward to working there probably more than anyone I know because when you go to work and you have even a "little more" added fun than usual that means you truly love it. If I had it my way I'd work there every single weekend because I know that when I do an event there it's going to be well managed, perfectly executed, and they never miss a beat!Couples who choose CBBC are generally looking for extraordinary, unique, and priceless moments with a sunset you'll never forget. Those are the couples also looking to have an event that people will talk about for a lifetime and that's from the food down to the music. So when I receive a referral from their establishment I already know what's expected, the bar that has been set, and most of all what this bride & groom want.Each and every day I look and hope that I see a referral from the sales team here because the chance to earn business from their couples and the opportunity to spin music at a party there is usually something that is exceptional. Go with The Beach Club if you want something that seems like a dream or a fairytale! It doesn't matter if you want a summer beach themed event that embraces Maryland's Beautiful Chesapeake Bay or a Winter Event that "Dazzles" a touch of ice and water - if you have a vision they'll make it become reality.

One of our favorite venues! Amazing views, delicious food and the best staff! Highly recommend!

Gorgeous views for a nice intimate wedding. Easy to work with.

Beautiful Venue and Fun Staff!

The beautiful back drop of the bay says it all. The event staff is professional, courteous and most of all on top of every single detail. Shooting a wedding and reception here was an absolute pleasure.

We love CBBC weddings because we know the event will flow flawlessly with top notch food and service, thanks to Erin and Teresa. There are so many gorgeous backdrops for photos within steps from the ceremony and reception areas. We love to sneak the bride and groom out the back door of the ballroom for sunset shots in the sand!

The Beach Club is one of the most beuatiful locations to hold your wedding day celebration. In addition to being such a gorgeous location with views of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge, the grounds are immaculately manicured, the food is amazing and they have a friendly, professional and efficient team. As a photographer this is one location we LOVE to work.

There is NOTHING like the Beach Club. This venue sets the bar for 150 miles in any direction! Scenery can't be beat. The staff is second to none anywhere.. and the food (trust me!) is simply the best reception food I've ever tasted. If the Beach Club was a restaurant, I guarantee they'd have the highest Zagat rating...no doubt.

CBBC is AMAZING! We love playing there - the food is fabulous and the staff is wonderful and professional and really know their stuff. The thing I find most impressive is the amount of work and attention to detail they put into improving and maintaining their facility - no other venue in the area looks as brand-new shiny and perfect. The place is flawless, you really can't go wrong having a wedding there!

We love Chesapeake Bay Beach Club! We are there every weekend in the spring and summer and we wouldn't change it for the world! They have awesome customer service and unbelieveable views and food! You cannot be dissapointed.

This is the place to make your wedding day very special!! For the past 5 years my customers can not stop saying good things about this place..go and check yourself :)

I have worked with Erin, Teresa, and the rest of the CBBC staff at dozens of events over the past decade and each one is more amazing than the next. The service and food quality are both top-notch, and the property is kept in picture perfect shape. Seeing the Beach Club transform from "the early days" has been truly amazing. While the club has always been a top wedding destination, I am blown away each time I arrive and see the incredible details they add to the property which make the venue even better. The staff will ensure every aspect of your day is just as you want it, so your only job is to relax and have a great time with family and friends. ~ Jason Walsh, Owner/DJ - Jason Walsh Entertainment

Cheasapeake Beach Club is one of the more beautiful venues for a photographer in the area, large expanses of water and a friendly, helpful staff complete the the list. We look forward to working at this venue again.MorningStar PhotographyColumbia MD

Fabulous venue with stunning view of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge!

The Chesapeake Bay Beach Club is always a great place to photograph weddings. If you are looking for a place where you can chose a variety of places outdoors and indoors to have your wedding this is the place. The staff is always professional and fun to work with and I always get fed which is a plus for a wedding photographer! Without fail there is a gorgeous sunset when I am there. The atmosphere, the people, and the environment sets the stage for a beautiful wedding.

Working at the CBBC is always a pleasure. We know the day will go well. The staff and food are always top-notch, and they run a tight ship. Which means every little itsy-bitsy glitch will be taken care of immediately. We've had clients tell us over and over that the CBBC is worth every penny they spent. For us, we always love shooting there. The grounds and buildings are maintained flawlessly and the background always looks great in every shot.

I am always excited about the opportunity of working with a bride at The Beach Club. This venue has a level of elegance and beachy style that is remarkable. I highly recomend this venue to any bride looking for a stylish waterfront wedding location.

Chesapeake Bay Beach Club is a photographers dream! The customer service is excellent the food is to die for and you can't beat the back drop of the Chesapeake Bay Bride in the backgound! We simple love the elegance of the interior and beautiful landscape for wedding portraits. The choice is clear Chesapeake Bay Beach Club willmake the memories of your wedding day last a life time.
