Historic places are evocative, authentic, and powerful backdrops for events – and today’s guest has breathed new life into historic places across Maryland – and gained a massive following on social media as a result. We’re talking about celebrating in historic spaces and how to make history pay with Kate Dear of Fêtewell™.

Kate Dear has always had a passion for epic celebrations and historic spaces and wanted to create an authentic venue with easygoing policies when she launched Main Street Ballroom in 2016. As Kate’s business has expanded, her down to earth approach to events has not. Approachable luxury is her mantra and a core value of how Kate and her team operate Fêtewell™’s portfolio of venues.
