Your Occasions
Elopements
Some love stories don't need a ballroom or a hundred guests. They just need the right place.
The Laughing King is sixty acres of waterfront farmland on the Chesapeake Bay — open skies, rolling fields, a private beach, and water as far as the eye can see. It is a stunning place to begin a marriage.
We offer intimate micro-elopements for couples who want something meaningful over something elaborate. Reach out to us and we'll help you make it happen.
We have a large network of caterers, wedding photographers, venues, musicians, and more that will make your day everything you imagined.
*We do not offer in-house catering or equipment rentals. All necessities must be sourced through outside vendors. We can provide referrals to local vendors upon request.
Retreats
The Chesapeake Bay has a way of slowing people down and opening them up — which makes it the perfect backdrop for a retreat that actually accomplishes something.
Imagine kicking off your morning on a private beach as the sun rises over the water, working through the big ideas in a historic farmhouse on a certified organic farm, and ending the day gathered around a fire pit with the Bay at your feet.
The Laughing King offers an intimate, adults-only waterfront setting for corporate retreats, wellness retreats, and private group getaways. Reach out to us to start planning yours.
Other
The Laughing King is a flexible, one-of-a-kind setting for gatherings that deserve more than a hotel conference room. Sixty waterfront acres, a historic farmhouse, screened porches, a private beach, and a fire pit on the Bay — we can work with you to make the space your own.
Anniversaries & Milestones A significant birthday, a landmark anniversary, or any moment worth marking in a meaningful way. Let us help you create something memorable on the water.
Girls' Weekends Farm, Bay, pool, porches, and good food. It tends to sell itself.
Reunions Old friends, college classmates, or family scattered across the coast — the Eastern Shore is a natural meeting point, and the Laughing King is the kind of place people talk about long after they've gone home.
Photo & Film The property has been featured in short films, music videos, and national advertising campaigns. Available for shoots by arrangement.
