    Industrial Perfection

    We loved having our wedding at the Winslow! I loved the industrial vibe of the location which really did not need many decorations (if any) to make it beautiful. Everyone was easy to work with and we ended up with the perfect day! Getting to take photos on the roof with M&T Bank in the background is also a major plus!

    Amazing Wedding Venue

    WE LOVED the Winslow! We had a June wedding and wanted an indoor rustic/industrial space, in the city, and where we could easily have the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. We also wanted a space that we could really make our own. The Winslow was the perfect location. We were able to have a beautiful, vibrant color palette and flowers, create gorgeous tablescapes, and use lighting to to create just the right mood. The Winslow was easy for our guests with ample parking and for the shuttle buses we used for our out-of-towners. The rooftop provided an amazing space for sunset pictures with the City skyline and M&T in the background. HIghly recommend the Winslow!

    Best Baltimore Venue

    Words will never be able to describe how amazing The Winslow was for us, and how incredible the team at The Winslow is. If you're looking for a perfectly local in the heart of Baltimore venue, this is it! Located conveniently with a parking lot for guests at the edge of Ostend near M&T Stadium and Checkerspot Brewery, it has everything you could want. Once inside, there is a gorgeous room with cool lighting and a large bar area for cocktail hour, plus another large space to use as you see fit, not to mention the largest main room that is two-storied, where you can decorate with cafe lighting, hanging floral, and really whatever you'd like to make the space your own. Besides the awesome and historic brick walls of the space, the team at The Winslow cannot be beat. We communicated and worked with both Michele and Jackie, and they were always so responsive and helpful. Super relaxed, and very easy to work with. Jackie was our Event Manager leading up to and the day of our wedding. As we continued to work with her most closely, we were able to put full trust in everything and knew the day would go off without a hitch because of her - and it did! It was perfect, and we're so excited to reminisce through photos and videos of our big day for years to come.

    Beyond stunning

    We could not have been happier with our wedding at the Winslow. They were easy to work with and the place itself is beyond stunning. Our pictures out front were breathtaking and the space was more than enough for our 160 guests! We could not have been happier and cannot wait to host another event there soon!

    An unassuming venue in the best way!

    We initially were introduced to the Winslow by Michelle. She has been in the industry for awhile and has great insight and perspective for what would/would not work and also matching you with vendors. We also worked with Jackie on site and for the reception itself. She was also great and very supportive of making our vision come to life. The venue itself is stunning. While it's technically a blank slate, it has so many beautiful industrial details and light! The outside location does not match the inside decor - but that's part of the charm of the building. AND there's a parking lot AND it hold 200 ppl comfortably - a gem in Baltimore!

    Beautiful Venue

    Absolutely gorgeous rustic/vintage, historic venue in the heart of Baltimore. It was perfect for the size of my wedding (90 guests) though it can certainly hold more. They were also responsive/communicative and were very helpful along the way.

    Stunning and unique wedding location

    This venue is PERFECT! The two-stories meant plenty of space for all our guests, and a unique layout that really was one-of-a-kind. We loved that the venue interior was a statement piece all by itself, so we didn’t have to spend a ton on decor (we just got the bistro lights and some curtains into the “train room” entrance). Michele was very kind and super helpful. She promptly answered all our questions and requests throughout the process. They also gave us some great vendor recommendations while we were planning.

    Stunning venue

    The Winslow is a stunning venue. Going into planning, we knew we wanted a space that would stand on its own and need minimal decorations and The Winslow did just that. The space was just as important to us as florals and other decor, and we got so many compliments from guests on the space. The separation between the “train shed”, reception area, the cocktail area, and the large reception space made each part of the wedding unique while also giving the convenience of not having to move between buildings or venues.

    An Incredible Space

    We LOVED having our wedding at The Winslow! It was everything we wanted out of a venue space and more! The building brings so much richness that we really didn’t have to put too much decoration into it to make the space look the way we wanted. The added convenience of having the ceremony in the Train Shed room and being able to walk right to the reception area was so nice and alleviated a lot of stress when it came to logistics of moving from one site to another! Our guests loved the venue space and are still raving about how incredible everything looked. I am so glad we picked this space and we hope to attend future weddings there so we can look back and reminisce on our amazing day!

    Out of this world!!

    So this place is a hidden gem and if you are getting married, this is the place!! We fell in love with the architect (so Baltimore, the exposed brick!) and we knew this is the spot where we wanted to get married. Michele and Kelli (venue managers) were outstanding! They answered all our questions, were so kind, and we loved working with them. Michele did an outstanding job the day of with everything and we could not be happier with the service, professionalism, and their kindness especially planning during a pandemic! Our guests raved about the venue and could not recommend this place enough!!

    Unique venue with everything you need

    The Winslow was a beautiful venue that truly worked with us to make sure our vision of the day came true. After having to change venues, the Winslow welcomed us with open arms and assured us that this space would give us what we wanted on our wedding day. We loved the convenience of having the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception all within unique spaces but within the same building. We used the Trainshed for our ceremony space, and although we didn’t get married in front of the brick wall (it is logistically difficult to get married in front of the brick wall now), we loved the space transformed with draping from Event Dynamics. Our guests loved the large L-shaped bar and we never saw a line develop, there was plenty of room! The atrium made a lovely area for cocktail hour with plenty of room for standing and a few seated tables. We also loved that the doors were closed to the reception space until cocktail hour was over to make a bigger reveal for our guests. The reception space was wonderful - plenty of room for tables and a huge dance floor. We had our DJ upstairs, which worked well for our space layout. The dance floor was huge and inclusive, our family and friends were dancing all night long! Due to rain we didn’t do an exit down the front steps. However, the long hall to the front door made a wonderful exit way through a tunnel of all of our loved ones. The venue was very flexible and worked well with all of our vendors. We would highly recommend having your dream wedding at the Winslow!

    2/2/2020 Brunch Wedding

    My husband discovered this fantastic venue shortly after we got engaged, as it is located right near his work downtown. For anyone considering this venue and are worried about the logistics of having guests travel downtown for a wedding, don’t! The Winslow has its own parking and it’s just a few turns off major highways, so coming and going are no problem! Now for the good stuff. If you like historic, industrial, customizable spaces...this place is a dream! We fell in love with it the very first time we saw it! From the exposed brick and steel beams, to the beautiful mezzanine and built in bar, it offers such offbeat beauty. We worked with Kelli from start to finish and she is perfection! She was flexible, responsive, and encouraging of all our ideas. Kelli was on hand day of to coordinate, got us all down the aisle, and made sure all of our needs were met. Not to mention throughout planning and the wedding, Kelli worked seamlessly with our caterer, Copper Kitchen, and their coordinator, and it showed! Our guests have still not stopped talking about how beautiful the space was or how incredibly our wedding came together, and I couldn’t agree more!

    This must be the place...

    I honestly can't say enough great things about the Winslow! The space was perfect for us and provided the foundation for the best day. Kelli and her team went above and beyond to make sure the day went flawlessly. She even went as far as contacting Google Maps to make sure the address was correct (since the venue was new, google maps was taking us down the block at first.)

    We fell in love with the Winslow as soon as we walked through the door. The industrial vibe, exposed brick and massive bar were everything we were looking for in a venue and the outdoor space an added bonus for the perfect photos.

    Amazing venue!

    We had a great experience. We got so many compliments from our guests about how amazing the Winslow is and how everything from the train room to the main room had great layouts that accommodated the guests. Our whole experience working with the Winslow staff was amazing. Kelli was super accommodating and made sure to answer any questions or help us with any concerns. As well, they worked so well with the caterer and other vendors that it made everything way easier on us!

    Hidden Gem in Baltimore City

    After two months and looking into over 40 venues, we decided that we just couldn’t have our big day anywhere but The Winslow. The setup was perfect for a downtown wedding. A chic, industrial building with a ton of character right in the heart of the city (Federal Hill). There was also plenty of parking! Around the perimeter of the building there were awesome views that were great photo-ops. Inside the set-up was ideal for us. A long bar area/lounge to serve our guests and have cocktail hour, a room dedicated for the ceremony, and a large, multi-level space for the reception. In addition to us, our guests raved about this beautiful, unique venue!

    We also had the pleasure of working with Kelli. Besides my wife, she and Jen (From Copper Kitchen) were the MVP’s of the wedding. Kelli was available and accommodating throughout the process. She was detail oriented and had such an easy-going personality. This surely helped reassure us on our big day and alleviated a ton of stress. She helped ensure that all of logistics were taken care of and everything was just how we envisioned it. We knew we were in great shape with her in our corner.

    We highly recommend the The Winslow as a venue for a wedding and think Kelli is a cut above the rest!

    The Winslow was so Unique!

    The Winslow was the most beautiful venue! I did not want to do an outdoor ceremony and the uniqueness of The Winslow stood out from all others. We loved the exposed brick walls, steel beams, mezzanine, and the all over industrial style.

    Outstanding venue and event manager kelli beard

    Don't walk....run to book the Winslow and work with Kelli Beard!
    What a fabulous venue! My son and daughter in law got married there this past Labor Day. I knew that we were having a big wedding and at first I wasn't sure if the Winslow could accommodate us. It turned out to be the perfect location! The venue is beautiful and very unique. We had 225 guests at our wedding and we never felt crowded...it was perfect The venue is spacious and so pretty that you don't need much in the way of decorating as its very pretty as is. We had our ceremony in the train shed and than used the large hallways for the cocktail hour The bar is tremendous and it lends itself beautifully to accommodate a large crowd. Seating guests upstairs at long tables was a great idea and made for some terrific photos as well. Breaking down the train shed to set up for a station style reception went smoothly and effortlessly. I must say that credit for this goes to Kelli and her team. We were beyond thrilled with this venue. I am giving Kelli permission to have any potential customers call me personally with question. Kelli was a wonderful hand holder( I'm a worrier after working in the event business myself in Cleveland, Ohio for many years). Kelli took charge and handled me beautifully and took all my worries away. You will thank me if you use The Winslow...such a cool, unique space. Thanks Kelli and The Winslow for making the wedding so special.

    Most Unique yet the best VENUE !!!!

    Since most of my friends are out of town, I wanted the venue within 30 min from BWI. I didn't want to go some country club or winery, since I don't like being outside, and Baltimore weather is just too random and unexpected to deal with. When I walked into winslow, I loved everything about this venue. rustic yet modern. Also the layout is super unique that we didn't need much of floral decorations to decorate this place. We just had light bulbs for the decorations and it was enough! Katie was the coordinator for this building and she is super helpful. I really really love this place and all my guests commented on how unique the venue was.

    I highly recommend winslow for brides who wants rustic/modern like cafe style venue!!

    one thing to concern about this place is that there isn't much of a place to take photos of first look so we rented a library in a hotel.

    Stunning Venue! Exceptional Service

    My daughter's wedding reception was at The Winslow at Parker Metal Building in Baltimore. What a wonderful venue! First of all we worked with Kelli Beard from The Winslow to arrange everything. Kelli is first rate and could not have made it easier for us. My daughter lives 3000 miles away which presented several challenges but the planning was seamless due to the Kelli's flexibility. She is never too busy to answer calls or emails and has a delightful personality. The venue itself is awesome. There are multiple levels and multiple rooms, a stunning bar area, high ceilings, brides room, impressive entry and just a fabulous industrial look and feel. The venue and staff is top notch.

    A Night that was everything we dreamed of and more.

    Our experience working with Kelli and the Winslow was incredible. Kelli was very flexible working with our schedule leading up to the wedding. She allowed us to see the venue and create our vision through a meeting prior which included everyone. The day and night of the wedding she made sure that we had an the best experience by checking in throughout the night. My parents raved about how helpful she was that night as well, which made us feel even better about our experience. The venue itself was beautiful and creates a wonderful ambiance for romance. We used the upstairs for seating and our guests loved the different perspective it gave as we did our first dance etc. I would highly recommend The Winslow.

    The Winslow made all my wedding venue dreams come true! This new industrial-chic space, and sister to the Mt. Washington Dye House, was the perfect backdrop for our wedding ceremony and reception.

    We were maybe the 2nd couple to officially host our wedding here and I couldn't be happier! The drama of the main room was perfect for our ceremony and then was easily flipped over to host our reception. Every corner of the venue provides a beautiful backdrop for photos, and sunset pictures on the roof was an amazing added touch. My guests were in AWE and couldn't stop commenting on how incredible the space was.

    Janin and Kelli were so great to work with and made every step of the process easy and enjoyable. Highly recommend.

    Only comment was that the large room got really warm with everyone dancing, perhaps we needed to crank the A/C a bit more. And in hindsight I may have opted for hanging lights from the mezzanine as the space felt a little dark later in the evening.

    Such a Gorgeous Venue!!

    The venue space at The Winslow is so unique and offers an incredible industrial vibe for a wedding. The light in the space is beautiful and the large amounts of exposed brick and beams allows for minimal decorations. The mezzanine balcony area offers a birds eye view of the entire event and provides plenty of space for guests to spread out. We had such a great experience with the staff and felt so grateful to have our wedding in this gorgeous space. Do yourself a favor and check out The Winslow as one of Baltimore’s best venues!

    COVID-19 Mini-Wedding

    About 60 days before our wedding date, we decided to postpone our big celebration* and pivot toward a mini-wedding. Kelli and Michele were incredibly flexible and calming; when we chatted by phone, they asked me about my vision and crafted a custom mini-wedding package option. We rented the cocktail space for three hours. A modern copper ceremony arch and bluetooth speaker were included in the cost; we also could have had access to an officiant, but we contracted our own.

    A few weeks before our wedding, I did a walkthrough via FaceTime with Kelli. During this call, she configured and reconfigured a creative ceremony location within the cocktail space to accommodate my COVID anxieties and our family groupings.

    We ended up having the most gorgeous and intimate wedding day with 18 family members! Kelli manned my tripod-mounted phone to record the ceremony as well as my now-husband's phone to control the ceremony and first-dance music. She faded back to let us enjoy our time but stayed close and checked in often to see when we were ready to move through different parts of our timeline. Even though we only paid for the cocktail space, we were able to access the Train Shed and main Winslow Room for photos.

    *Logistical considerations about postponement: We postponed our original contract to a new date and had to sign a separate contract for the mini-wedding. However, the whole process was pretty seamless. Perhaps most importantly, Kelli was responsive, responsible, and honest when helping us make our decision to postpone - she was forthright about what she knew and did not know given the ever-changing state of COVID-19 restrictions, laid out our options, and encouraged us that we were doing the right thing.

    All in all, Kelli is a gem of an event manager and the Winslow is a gem of a venue. Can't wait to be back there on 8/8/2021 for our sequel wedding!
