    All around awesome!

    Everything at the Kent Island Resort exceeded our expectations. Everyone is friendly, outgoing, accommodating and incredibly sincere. Naomi was our wedding coordinator and did an incredible job making sure everything went smoothly, switching the ceremony to outside 3 hours prior to the start time. The whole weekend went off without a hitch. LaFawn was also constantly around helping and making sure everything went smoothly. She constantly took care of us and had all the answers we needed. The food was some of the best I have ever had at a wedding. I have absolutely zero complaints. Definitely come see this beautiful property and meet the incredible team at Kent Island! You will not be disappointed.

    A perfect day

    This wedding venue is great all around. The staff, views and execution was spectacular. Our day was perfect in every aspect and I would recommend this venue to other brides. My husband and I and our guests will remember this perfect day forever and a big portion of the credit goes to Kent Island Resort.

    Beautiful! Amazing experience for our wedding!

    My husband Erik and I got married on June 10th at the newly remodeled Kent Island Resort! It was everything we could have ever asked for and our wedding coordinators Mackenzie and Cheyenne were truly wonderful! Working with both of them eased any concerns that came up during the planning process and their responsiveness was always on point! The food was phenomenal and Mackenzie and Cheyenne set up our ceremony and reception the exact way we wanted and planned for.
    If you have any doubt, don’t! They will make sure your day is perfect!

    Amazing!!!


    We had the most Magnificent Wedding Weekend at the Kent Manor Inn this past weekend. Saying “thank you” isn’t quite enough to explain our immense Gratitude for the impeccable customer service, the glorious grounds & the historic Inn itself. Dolores was our wedding planner and she was Awesome! Covid had changed up our wedding plans significantly and we shifted gears and made a new plan for an intimate family-only gathering. It couldn’t have gone more PERFECTLY! She made everything so easy with her supportive & kind demeanor. She was there ALL weekend - checking on our every need. We didn’t have to worry about anything! The staff was Amazing...Specifically LaFawn, who attended to us beautifully! She took care of Everyone! LaFawn is a True Love & every guest just couldn’t say enough about her service & care! The food was DELICIOUS! The grounds are Stunning & the entire staff is Top Notch! We didn’t want the day to end! We all left feeling like we made lifelong friends! And we CANNOT wait to go back every year on our Anniversary (and more weekends) to celebrate what an Amazingly Perfect Day & weekend we all had!Thank you!!! Thank you!!! Our hearts are SO Full!

    Amazing Eastern Shore Venue

    The Kent Manor Inn was the perfect wedding venue for us. We knew that we wanted a venue with in-house catering and an option for guests to stay overnight, so we attended the open house on a Saturday last year. As soon as we saw the waterfront gazebo and the Preserve reception space, we were sold. Throughout our planning process, a new venue coordinator, Jessica, was hired. She was extremely organized and had a wonderful no-nonsense attitude that we loved. She was very quick to respond to any questions or requests that we had, no matter how small. We booked about half of the rooms the night before our wedding and had some issues checking in as there is no staff present overnight, but one of the managers, Debby, was quick to arrive to the Inn & get us checked in. Our wedding went off without a hitch, from the beginning to end. The Preserve was recently renovated with new floors, ceiling drapes, and bathrooms- all of which had the venue looking picture perfect. All of the staff at the Preserve were so enthusiastic and helpful to our guests. Every single one of our guests emphasized what a perfect wedding it was at the Kent Manor Inn. We hosted brunch at the Inn on Sunday morning for some of our guests and the staff was superb yet again. We highly recommend the Kent Manor Inn to anyone looking for a gorgeous, historic, waterfront wedding.

    Great All Inclusive Venue

    We loved everything about this venue. Being able to have the ceremony, reception, and lodging in the same location was amazing. The staff was extremely helpful and professional. They catered to everything we needed and made the wedding day stress free for us.

    Absolutely amazing!

    Kent Manor Inn is first off, a gorgeous venue! But to top it off, they have an amazing staff that is responsive and supportive. They truly make sure that the wedding day goes off perfectly! Jessica Oliver is amazing is really helped us get the final day of plan together and helped calm our nerves. She is a pro! The catering Kent provides is also amazing, the food was delicious and the timing of the buffet was perfect! They really helped keep the reception activities moving along. We really recommend Kent Manor Inn!

    Kent Island Resort's reply:

    Thank you so much! I loved working with you and wish you the best! Keep us in mind for future celebrations and I hope to see you for an anniversary getaway!

    So beautiful

    Even though we went in a different direction I wanted to express how much we loved the Kent Manor Inn! The ground are beyond beautiful, the Inn is so well kept and is so cozy! We have stayed there before and the people really just make the whole place cozy. Prices are great for the area! Plus there is so much history there!

    Gorgeous venue for our wedding!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

    Where do I even begin with Kent Manor Inn? It was an absolute DREAM to get married here!!! It's a stunning venue with so much charm and character. We looked at tons (and I mean TONS) of venues before we finally saw KMI and fell in love. Our vision included an outdoor ceremony with the option to host an outdoor reception in a tent. We were going for a rustic feel while blending in traditional Hindu/Indian traditions and KMI was the perfect place to bring our vision to life. It was large enough to host a 350+ person wedding without any issues, which is something that limited us while searching for an outdoor venue. It's been 3 months and we are still hearing from our guests that our wedding venue was so incredibly beautiful. It definitely helped that we luckily got the best weather (sunny & 70's) for our spring wedding!

    The entire wedding planning process was a breeze after we booked our wedding day with KMI. Their team did everything they could to answer our millions of questions in a timely manner. They suggested some great vendors (ranging from party/equipment rentals to transportation to bakeries and even babysitters)! Everyone from KMI was pleasant to work with and it's evident they did everything they could to make our day special. They had hosted a handful of Indian weddings in the past, so I felt more at ease knowing that they understood the different traditions and intricacies of an Indian wedding (i.e baraat, official welcome, long ceremony, etc.).

    Since we had a pretty large wedding, KMI worked with us closely to ensure there were enough chairs, tables, restrooms, etc. for our guests. Really appreciated their help with this so my husband and I didn't have to worry about it. In the months leading up to our wedding, KMI staff worked with all of my vendors to ensure they were all on the same page so things ran smoothly. Some of my vendors visited the venue beforehand to check it out and there was always someone from the Inn willing to meet with them and take them on a tour/answer their questions. On the day of, everything ran smoothly and I have no complaints. The day was beautiful and everything we could dream of.

    We also rented out the entire Inn for our guests to stay and had a great experience with that, as well. I worked with the Inn to assign rooms to our guests, they were able to call in with the CC information and received email confirmations quickly. The rooms were all great as well - each one has it's own personality and the bathrooms were modern and clean. The bridal suite was perfect for getting ready and allowed for some great photos.

    Overall, we absolutely LOVED our experience with Kent Manor Inn and can't say enough great things about them. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a gorgeous outdoor venue!

    We stayed here the night before our wedding and used the room for the bridal party to get ready and then take wedding photos later that day. The property was beautiful and we loved our stay. It was relaxing and the staff was great.

    I am so incredibly glad I chose KMI as my wedding venue. It is affordable and absolutely beautiful. It was everything I could have dreamed of. I was married by the water and had my reception at the garden house, which is my favorite part of the venue. The staff is phenomenal. The food was incredible and we were VERY pleased with the options at our price point, which wasn't on the higher end. You will not regret having your wedding here! You also get a nights stay at the inn, which is an incredible added bonus!

    Awesome venue! This past fall I had the pleasure of spending the entire weekend at Kent Manor Inn as the maid of honor for my best friends wedding. The staff was top notch and the food was delicious! It's like staff was 10 steps ahead of us so everything ran smoothly. Both Ashley and Kelley were amazing throughout the whole planning process down to the day of. It was the most perfect weekend! Highly recommend.

    My wife and I chose Kent Manor Inn for so many reasons. My wife’s parents got married there 23 years ago so when we went to go visit this venue we couldn’t get over how beautiful the entire manor and property was! We had our ceremony by the water and reception in the garden house. The day of the wedding while the girls got ready in the bridal sweet the guys played out door games on the property and just mingled enjoying the beautiful weather we had.The convenience of doing both parts of the wedding at the same place was perfect for guests and over all the wedding party! Ashley was the absolute best to deal with from the very first visit to when we were leaving the day after the wedding. She was there for all questions and always had the answers. Kelly was our coordinator and we absolutely loved her! She answered every question and gave so many good ideas! Honestly Kent Manor couldn’t have made a better wedding expierence then what my wife and I had. Our guest talked bout our special day for weeks on end and the compliments we received were out of this world. I couldn’t say enough about this place!

    My husband and I got married in June, and we could not have asked for a more perfect day! Everyone at Kent Manor was amazing and they really went above and beyond to ensure that our day was exactly what we wanted. Ashley did an amazing job at helping us with all the planning leading up to the big day and definitely thought of things that we otherwise would not have. Kelley was equally as amazing making sure that there was nothing forgotten during the rehearsal and orchestrating all the details on the wedding day through the ceremony, reception and even our grand exit. I really feel as though everyone genuinely cared about our day and truly wanted it to be as exactly we had dreamed it. The food was amazing and the venue itself is just gorgeous. We received so many compliments as to what a beautiful wedding we had; and we owe a huge part of that to all the staff at Kent Manor for being on their "A Game.!" To say that this day was anything short of fairy tale would not be doing it justice. Thank you everyone at Kent Manor Inn for making our day one that we will never forget and will always be so special to us!

    We can’t thank Ashley, Kelley & Kent Manor Inn’s staff enough for making our wedding weekend PERFECT. We have always dreamed of a perfect wedding and that is exactly what we got plus more than we expected. It was a perfect weekend with our family and friends, from our Rehearsal Dinner, Breakfast each morning, Wedding Ceremony & Reception and Sunday Brunch. We arrived on Thursday, handed over all of our items to Ashley and Kelley and they made our vision a dream come true. Every staff member we encountered was extremely friendly and made sure we had everything needed. I can’t rave enough about the food it is amazing. Our weekend was perfect. We will be returning as much as we can, especially for our 1 year anniversary as the chef who we saw and spoke to several times over the weekend has offered for us to come back for our Anniversary and have a private dinner for us with recreation of our wedding meal. We can not wait to return!

    Honestly we cannot say enough good things about Historic Kent Manor Inn. From the beginning when we first toured the venue, up until our wedding in June; the staff has been more than wonderful to work with. They were always very responsive when we had questions and were so accommodating to every request. They truly know how to run a successful wedding and allowed us and our family and friends to really enjoy the day without worry. Not only was the staff phenomenal, the venue itself is absolutely gorgeous. Not to mention their catering/dinner was spectacular! We also highly recommend staying at the Inn. Each room is uniquely beautiful and the breakfast was amazing. The whole weekend was like a getaway with family and friends at this beautiful property. Despite the wedding being a few weeks ago, we’re still receiving plenty of compliments about the location. We’re so glad we went with Kent Manor and couldn’t have imagined a more perfect wedding!

    Great venue, great staff, great setting. You won't be disappointed if you chose Kent Manor Inn. My daughter was married on 4/1/16 and everything was wonderful. The food was outstanding, staff was wonderful and the setting gorgeous.

    We had out wedding at Kent Manor on 10/11/15. We chose the venue more out of fate, but also based on their reviews in 2013, and believe it was worth it. Our boss found this venue before we were engaged, and we met at work. Let's just say the cards fell into place for us. Ashley worked with us for 2 years to plan our perfect wedding. Towards the end we had so many changes with Guest List, Ashley was very accommodating. Tounley (sp?) was awesome the day of! I was a DIY bride and she put all my hard work for 2.5 yrs (long engagement :) ) and built my dream wedding. As my dad said, I had been planning it for 27 years, and she made it a dream come true for me. The day of was a circus and the one thing I didn't have to worry about was wedding planning. She took care of every need. We had a cake snafoo where someone knocked our toss bouquet into the cake. Let's just say the cake was worth way more than the flowers. When she found out about it, she adjusted the cake so no one would see, took it away, fixed it herself, and it reappeared at the cake table in time for our cutting. Pure amazing! I also had a bad stomach ache (part nerves part bad rehearsal dinner choices) and she brought gingerale to my and new husband when I was getting fresh air. She was so attentive to details, it made the entire day perfect. I probably should mention the food. You should book this place, first for the food! I wish our tasting, cocktail hour, and dinner was longer with more courses. It was delicious, flavorful, and not a dry piece of meat. Did I mention most guests plates were empty when it came time for cleanup? Except for mine since there was no room in my dress to fit more food. If you want a perfect wedding on the Eastern Shore, especially in the fall, book Kent Manor!

    My daughter married at the Historic Kent Manor Inn on 10/09/2015. I have to say it was one of the most wonderful experiences ever. Ashley and the entire staff at Kent Manor were ever so accommodating in every way. Ashley took care of everything for us and not once did my daughter get stressed as she knew she was in good hands with an amazing professional. Every guest at the wedding raved about the food and service as I received many messages the next day as to what a great time they had. There is no way we could have pulled this off without Ashley's expertise. Thank Ashley and to all who made my daughters special day more than she ever hoped for.
