At first, one might not think of Annapolis, Maryland as a destination wedding location, but with it’s thriving historic district and majestic views of the Chesapeake Bay, “America’s Sailing Capital” would make a perfect setting for tying the knot.
Travel Tip: Spend some time on foot! Strolling around, hand in hand, through historic districts can be a romantic adventure in itself — explore local shops, visit small galleries, and eat the native cuisine. Of course, if you’re in Maryland, you’ve got to have a few crab cakes!
