INSPIRED BY ART
Allegany County is an art-lover’s paradise. Pose for
photographs inside the C. William Gilchrist Gallery and
Museum and hold your ceremony in the museum’s gorgeous
back garden. Plan a unique ceremony inside the 1931 Art Deco
Embassy Theatre and share your first kiss as a married couple
on stage. Exchange your vows in the city of steeples. The
architecture alone makes for a dreamy backdrop, but some
of Cumberland’s places of worship are works of art in
themselves, like the Emmanual Episcopal Church, which is
one of the area’s finest examples of early Gothic Revival
architecture with stained glass windows made by Louis
Comfort Tiffany.
TIMELESS ELEGANCE
Couples seeking an air of sophistication for their special
occasion will find plenty of historical offerings here. Show off
your wedding dress as you slow dance under chandeliers at
the Allegany Museum Ballroom—the largest neo-classical
revival-style building in Western Maryland. The 18th-century
colonial-style bank barn at Evergreen Heritage Center is a
beautiful backdrop for your big day. Plus, the property’s
commitment to ecological conservation will appeal to
environmentally conscious couples.
Say “I do” in the peaceful formal garden at the Gordon-
Learn More Roberts House before moving inside to the drawing room for
an intimate reception. Built in 1867 for the president of the
and C&O Canal, this historic home blends Second Empire
Say ‘I Do’ architecture with Victorian interior touches and will give your
wedding the traditional touches you envision.
