The George Peabody Library, Baltimore, Maryland
This spectacular library is part of the Sheridan Libraries Special Collections at Johns Hopkins University, and while still used as a research library, it has become the premiere venue for weddings and special events in Baltimore. You can host events ranging from an intimate gathering for 40 to a magnificent affair for 400!

The Redondo Beach Historic Library, Redondo Beach, California
While no longer a working library, this historic landmark in Redondo Beach sits in Veteran's Park, overlooking the ocean. Now mostly used as an event venue, with an outdoor ceremony option and a reception hall lined with bare bookshelves, which get covered with LED candles and/or your own personal decoration, this place is just lovely.

This sprawling estate, designed by author Edith Wharton in 1902, includes the mansion and three acres of formal gardens, including a French flower garden and an Italian white garden. For weddings, the entire estate is closed to the public, but wedding guests are free to roam the grounds and explore the exhibits inside the mansion.
