My SIL is getting married this fall. There's some drama concerning her shower in May. We're having a hard time agreeing on whose house to have the shower. Any suggestions for a place to have the shower in Annapolis? It will be May 21st or 22nd. SIL was very upset last night and I promised her that I would find some solutions...I really appreciate any ideas!

How many people are you inviting?

I just sent the MOH a message. I have no clue. I think there were about 20 at my shower and it was mostly family (which will be SIL's side of the family). I know most of her friends/BM are out of state.

I'm not sure how expensive it is per person but I saw a bridal shower when we were at the Sunday brunch at Yellowfin in Edgewater. They had a string of tables in a corner to themselves. I bet there are lots of place that would accommodate something similar.

If you are interested in a tea room atmosphere, there is Reynolds Tavern in downtown Annapolis or Moulin de Paris in Severna Park. I've seen a lot of showers of that size at Yellowfin during their Sunday buffet brunch at a regular table. They also have a private room but I'm not sure if they have a minimum requirement or anything. Wild Orchid Cafe near downtown Annapolis has a private room and I'm pretty sure Brio at the Parole Town Center has one. Maybe also Carroll's Creek? If you don't want to do a restaurant, you could probably also just rent a pavilion at Quiet Water's Park.

Thanks! I only know a few restaurants in Annapolis b/c the family eats at the same places all the time. I'll definitely check some of these places out. I was thinking a tea room type place. SIL's tastes are different from mine so it's hard to figure out what she would like.

No suggestions, but why in the world is the shower so early if she's getting married in the fall? Is that the only time it worked for family?

Ditto the recc's for Reynolds Tea Room & Carroll's Creek. Boatyard Bar & Grill also has a back room area that would probably work. I haven't been to the new Wild Orchid location, but they had very nice food @ their previous location.

Stoney River Steakhouse at the Annapolis Mall also has private rooms. Their lunch prices are pretty reasonable.

Her maid of honor runs a summer camp so she's unable to do anything throughout the summer. And August was too close to her September wedding.

Ditto Yellowfin!

That's the begining of Commissioning Week. Downtown Annapolis and surrounding hotels may be booked.

However, Carroll's Creek, Chart House, and Pussers are nice places on the water for a shower.

Thanks...didn't even think about that.
