Charlotte at the Washington Civic Center was a pleasure to work with for our wedding. Her communication style was friendly, engaging, and problem-solving - Charlotte was so nice to talk with every time we reached out and provided helpful information on renting the venue. The venue itself is sentimental, beautiful, with just the right amount of natural light and waterfront location creating a stunning backdrop for our special day. They went above and beyond, providing linens and helping us navigate any facility questions or issues that came up. So many of our guests complimented the gorgeous venue space, and we were able to have it for a full two days, which was incredibly convenient. We're so grateful to the team at the Washington Civic Center for helping make our wedding day perfect.

Tim and Natalie were super helpful and kind. The venue was pre-decorated for Christmas and we loved it! Anything we needed, we asked them first, and they were happy to share with us: drink dispensers, an easel, even jumper cables for when our car wouldn’t start. They communicated everything clearly and were very friendly to us. The venue is wonderful, clean, and organized. It felt like a Christmas fairytale and we’re so thankful for them!
