4 garden wedding venues in Baltimore

Public gardens and conservatories run ceremony rentals as a membership and admissions program, so the ceremony-only rate is often published while the full reception rate is not. Every listing below is a real Baltimore area site with a price published by the venue itself or in a public fee schedule, checked in August 2026. We do not publish estimates, and we do not take a cut of what you book.
