The venue is absolutely lovely. It gives you the castle shots outside without an endless budget and inside is perfect for a ceremony and reception. Staff are super helpful and flexible. My wedding had the ceremony and reception in the same room and it worked WONDERFULLY. If I wanted to do an outdoor ceremony, that is also an option too with an easy transition inside for a reception. The location is so easy to work with and build what wedding you want.We were on a tight budget and this place was a godsend. Truly, give it a shot. It's the hidden gem wedding venue of Harford County.

The Bel Air Armory is an amazing venue. They have a beautiful courtyard for an outdoor ceremony and and perfect reception area. They can accommodate all your needs including a space for getting ready. They exceeded my expectations. The manager Julia Potler is wonderful to work with!

I cannot say enough good things about Julia and her team! All questions were answered quickly and the Bel Air Armory was the perfect location to hold our reception. Beautiful on its own, but also so easy to transform into whatever you can dream of. Cannot wait for another occasion where I have the ability to book the armory.

We used this venue for our wedding, and it was great to have a low-cost option that we could completely personalize ourselves. There's a great space outdoors that we used for photos (but they also have a lot of outdoor ceremonies there I was told) and then there was a large hall inside where we served our food and did our cocktail hour. Overall great space, great price, and our contact there Julia was professional and easy to work with!

We were so happy with the armory for our event. It was beautiful, well maintained, and everything we were looking for. Julia helped me set everything up and was very attentive to our needs. We couldn’t have asked for more.
