Since tours can be scheduled year-round, I figured this group must be doing just that, taking a guided ballpark tour.

But as I glanced away, I noted the tell-tale tour guide uniform in the way of a black and orange jacket and ball cap was missing, and this group was pretty well dressed for a bunch of fans just walking around the Yard–Most fans don’t opt for sparkling dresses or sharply cut suits, or a tour in the evening so close to dusk.

But a wedding rehearsal fit the bill nicely. Did you know you can get married, have your wedding reception, or hold an event at Camden Yards?

Receptions, rehearsal dinners, job fairs, birthday parties, corporate meetings – you name it and you can rent out a portion of the ballpark for it.

Now just imagine the photographer telling you to stand on the third step of the Orioles’ dugout or next to Eddie Murray’s home run plaque on Eutaw Street.

They probably won’t have to remind you to smile.
