    The best wedding venue ever!

    The BEST VENUE EVER!!! May I say, “I’m in love with Rachel and Gemma”? They are amazing! Also, the scent machine for HVAC! GENIUS! Never get rid of it! It was a requirement for my wedding, so everyone smelled good the entire time! Also, working with the team at MSB was so effortless! Also, Rachel girl! You broke your curse! She handed me a slice of my cake and didn’t drop it! It was a demand of mine and she achieved it with beauty and grace and I’m so glad. The perk of this venue is you have on-site staff for your vendors or wedding planner to contact for any questions AND the venue is open from 8am-midnight! All my vendors were so happy and thankful for that, so they didn’t have to rush set up or anything like that. The venue itself is beautiful; we had to do a room flip which was so cool how they magically did that so quickly. The furniture that was already there was great and the outside patio was so relaxing for cocktail hours. The restrooms were so clean and the studios for the people getting married were perfect! Overall, this venue was perfect, especially in case it rained, which it was supposed to, but it thankfully didn’t. Parking was a little crazy for most, but that’s going to be anywhere in a city area, thankfully all parking spots were at least free, so no one had to pay or worry about being ticketed. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone any day!

    Mainstreet Ballroom

    From our first conversation with the Main Street Ballroom team, we knew we had found the right venue. They were responsive to all our questions and made us feel supported throughout the entire planning process. What really set them apart was giving us access to the space for the whole day and our vendors could set up whenever they wanted without feeling rushed. The tables and chairs come included and are already set up, which saved us so much time and stress. The ballroom itself is a great spa s with a moody atmosphere that felt both cozy and versatile for our celebration. We couldn't have asked for a better experience, and we'd absolutely recommend Main Street Ballroom to any couple looking for a clean, flexible venue with a team that genuinely cares.

    Absolutely Amazing!

    Main Street Ballroom is a fabulous wedding venue. My husband and I could not have dreamed of a better wedding. We had an amazing time and have created memories that will last a lifetime! The staff at Main Street Ballroom were incredibly informative and responded promptly to all our questions. The venue itself was gorgeous, with lots of personality. We hardly needed any extra decor. We loved having the space from 8 am to 12 pm, which gave us plenty of time to set up the ceremony chairs and prepare everything. The team at Main Street Ballroom truly went above and beyond to make our special day perfect.

We wish you and your husband a future filled with joy and happiness. Cheers! The Main Street Ballroom Team

    Unique and memorable wedding venue

    As a wedding photographer, Main Street Ballroom is one of my favorite venues in the Baltimore/Ellicott City area! The space speaks for itself when it comes to a contemporary yet historic industrial chic aesthetic. Each wedding/shoot that Urban Row Photography has captured here has been unique and memorable - looking forward to many more! There are so many picturesque and unique spots for portraits along Ellicott City's historic main street!
