(05/28/08) Anne and Joe celebrated with over 200 guests at the hotel where their friends and family were all staying. “We wanted our guests to be as comfortable as possible,” Anne explains. “The hotel is within walking distance of the Inner Harbor, Camden Yards, museums, and other attractions” -- the biggest of all being, of course, their reception, which took place in the Grand Ballroom.
