Blake House, nestled in the heart of Centreville, Baltimore, Maryland, offers an intimate wedding venue experience as part of the esteemed Durham-Hythe Experience group. Founded by business partners Gerry Coates and Matt Bruce, who first crossed paths on a vacation in Mykonos, Greece, Blake House reflects their shared passion for hospitality. Leveraging their combined expertise in construction, interior design, and clinical psychology, Gerry and Matt have meticulously crafted a wedding venue that not only meets but exceeds the expectations of couples and guests alike.

As one of the oldest colonial homes in Maryland, Blake House boasts a rich history dating back to the late seventeenth century when it was built by British settler Charles Blake. This historic charm is seamlessly blended with modern comforts, offering couples a unique setting that embodies both the elegance of the colonial period and contemporary luxury. Spanning 12 acres, the venue is surrounded by lush indigenous and exotic flora, providing a picturesque backdrop for any celebration. The expansive event space is highly customizable, allowing couples to tailor the setting to fit their specific color schemes and themes, ensuring a personalized and memorable experience.

Beyond its enchanting ceremony site, Blake House offers a plethora of activities for guests to enjoy throughout the property. The venue features outdoor corn hole and bocce ball courts, perfect for guests to bask in the warmth of the Baltimore sun. For those seeking indoor entertainment, Blake House offers a cozy setting with a billiards table, foosball, and a mini dance floor located near a roaring wood-burning fireplace. This blend of outdoor and indoor activities ensures that family and friends have ample opportunities to relax and enjoy every moment of the celebration, from the sunlit afternoons to the cool, cozy evenings.
