We're so glad we booked our small ceremony at Carlyle House! While we initially planned to get married on the front lawn, we pivoted to their tent on the veranda due to rain and it was just as perfect. Randi was so responsive leading up to the big day and was there to help on our wedding day, including helping wrangle our golden retriever!

Elegance Estates was the perfect venue for our April wedding. We got married in a church and had the reception at Elegance Estates, and it was absolutely beautiful. I am a very minimalistic girl, so I did not provide the venue coordinator (Brittany—she’s amazing) with very much decor or direction and she still somehow made everything look perfect. Their catering team is awesome and the food was delicious. The set up provides lots of space for guests to move and mingle, and we had a blast dancing in the ballroom. Would highly recommend! They made wedding planning so easy.

The Andrew Mellon Auditorium stands, without question, among the very finest classical buildings in America. The gilded auditorium and lobbies are among the nation's most magnificent interiors.

The venue fee is $22,275 for under 599 guests, and $22,800 for 600-1000 guests, and that includes the building rental and support costs, as well as off-site scanning of your vendor vehicles, security for your load in/out and one set of front doors for guest entrance. When hosting at the Mellon, you will need to work with one of our approved vendors to supply all of your event needs (catering, rentals, décor, valet, ect.).

Why you'll love this venue

  • Space for a large guest list
  • Both indoor and outdoor options
  • Multiple event spaces

Venue considerations

  • No free parking
  • Limited cleanup and setup services
  • Lighting and sound are not included
I have had the pleasure of working with the team at the Mellon professionally, so when it was time for my wedding I knew I would have a great experience in this space. The venue is one of the most gorgeous in DC -- the columns, balcony overlook, green rooms, and stage make this a really perfect venue for a wedding. We had our ceremony at a church, but if needed we could have held it in the two green rooms toward the rear of the building (look up photos, its gorg.) The venue itself just absorbs color, lighting and sound, so its easy to add some simple or even over the top decor to make this space fit for your vision. You can have a number of different floorplans and seating arrangements, so its uniquely versatile for such a large venue in DC The team was very easy to work with - the information that they have is very detailed, and they're happy to talk through the details, schedule walkthroughs, and answer questions as it relates to the contracts and requirements to host an event there. Since it is such a well oiled machine, the paperwork and details that the team shares is very straightforward and to the point, and they're always ready to help answer questions as it comes to suppliers, insurance, and general operations. They have vast experience with different suppliers, including caterers and wedding planners who are in the space all the time -- they really want to simplify the process -- which with this type of property can be quite challenging! The venue is absolutely gorgeous, and every single one of our guests were in awe of the size and scope of the space. Two things to remember - you'll have to get your dance floor through their team (which is easy because the install and dismantle is efficient) and the restrooms are on a separate level from the mail hall - but there are elevators and two beautiful staircases that make this not a big deal. We loved our day and wish we could relive it again!

We picked Clyde’s because the location was close to my church, where we did the ceremony, and because it was one of the few venues in that radius that fit our budget. I picked Clyde’s for practical reasons and looking back I couldn’t have made a better choice. I always knew I wanted my wedding reception to be fun and relaxed and have plenty of good food and drinks for my guests. Clyde’s so fit the bill. First, the food is simple yet delicious. We already knew that from dining there, and the tasting confirmed it. We were able to make menu choices to please everyone. Second, our room was beautiful and uniquely decorated and that makes a fun atmosphere. It was large enough to fit all our guests and have room to dance (we had about 50 people, but could have fit more in the room.) finally, the service was exceptional - all our guests commented on how great the servers and bartenders were at their jobs. We felt so welcome. The event staff went above and beyond to work with me to decorate and set tables to my specifications. If you are considering Clyde’s, I highly recommend them. DC wedding venues are expensive and Clyde’s was one of the few places we could afford, but even if our budget was higher, I couldn’t imagine a better experience.

As a wedding planner, I get the opportunity to work in many venues in Washington, D.C. But there's something truly special about one of D.C.'s newest hotels, Viceroy Washington DC. From the moment I first stepped through the hotel's front doors, I was impressed with the hotel's luxe, stylish and modern details that celebrate local artists and musicians. The photo ops are truly endless! But above all, what's most memorable about Viceroy Washington DC are the people. The events and food and beverage team go above and beyond to ensure that your event will be a success. We navigated numerous challenges due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Kate and the entire team made what could've been an incredibly stressful process, so easy! Due to local guidelines, we needed to move our indoor event outdoors. With Kate's help, we were able to seamlessly pivot to a beautiful event on the hotel's outdoor heated patio. The food and beverage program is outstanding and safety is considered every step of the way. Can't recommend Viceroy Washington DC highly enough!

His professionalism and attention to detail ensured that everything went off without a hitch. Additionally, because it is also a food incubator, he was able to make excellent suggestions for catering. The venue itself is a gem—unique, versatile, and full of character.

We knew The Tower Club Tysons would be our wedding venue the minute we stepped off the elevator! The vibe, the ambiance, the views, the food, and the team were just everything we wanted for an intimate, elegant wedding! From the get-go, our consultant Lindsay and her team made us feel welcome and heard and no matter what we asked for or wanted, they were super flexible and accommodating to our needs. For instance, we're Persian and for Persian weddings we have a traditional table layout called a sofreh. When we told Lindsay about it, she again was very accommodating and showed us the perfect setting for our sofreh. Additionally, our original wedding plans for a destination wedding ended up not working out and we had to switch to plan B and have our wedding locally, so we only had around 4 months until our wedding date (they also had availability for the exact date we requested in October) when we first visited the Tower Club and only about 3 months of solid planning after we signed our contract. Lindsay assured us that we would have plenty of time to plan and get everything together and that put our minds at ease right away. She was with us and guided us every step of the way and I can truly say that everything went as planned and was as stress-free as possible. Our wedding day/night was everything we imagined it would be and more -- the night couldn't have gone more wonderfully and smoothly, and a lot of the credit will have to go to the Tower Club's wonderful staff and team. Our guests all had a wonderful time and raved about the Tower Club's gorgeous space and views and the delicious food and drinks! Speaking of the view, you're on the 17th floor with lots of balconies and a beautiful, bird's eye view of the whole city. The sunset on our wedding day was DIVINE and something that not only our guests enjoyed during cocktail hour (we saw a bunch of them taking photos on the balcony during cocktail hour), but also something our photographer and videographer took advantage of for our photos. Lastly, the staff were helpful, accommodating, and all smiles until the very end of the night, which was something we truly appreciated. All in all, 10/10 we would recommend The Tower Club Tysons as the perfect, dreamy venue for the elegant wedding of your dreams!

  • Picturesque garden backdrop

Venue considerations

  • No on-premises lodging options
  • Not wheelchair accessible
  • Additional event staff required
As soon as we took a tour of the Atrium, we knew this was the perfect spot to get married. The gardens are beautiful, and the inside the building the glass walls, plants, and little river give an airy and natural feel. I didn't worry about rain because you feel like you're outside even when you're in. When guests got too hot on the dance floor, they could go out and socialize on the patio overlooking the gardens in the cool night air. Given the meal prices for comparable venues, this venue is GREAT VALUE!! The food was great and the guests were happy. There were a couple small things that might be helpful to share, though. Our point of contact changed several times in the span of our engagement and there was sometimes a delay in communication. Also, the venue was marketed as a capacity of 200 people but it is better suited to weddings of 160-180 guests. When you go over 180, you have to choose some guests to seat in a room that feels divided by the little stream which is awkward. Also, there is no space for getting ready so brides and bridesmaids have to get ready off-site. Overall, I was overjoyed with having my wedding day here and I think for the price we still had an incredible experience. I don't regret it at all!!

We LOVED having our wedding at Woodend! Beatriz was so helpful and answered all of our questions, as well as keeping us updated as the tent set up changed over this past year. The new tent is gorgeous and the whole venue is so gorgeous, including the grounds! We were happy to keep our decor minimal and let the mansion’s beauty shine, and we got so many compliments on the venue’s set up of having the dance space (Main Hall) separated from the dinner seating (tent). We also loved Woodend’s gorgeous property, which really shined for our late October wedding. Would fully recommend considering Woodend for your wedding - plenty of parking, beautiful space, great team, and your venue fee goes to a great charitable cause.

We had our wedding at Farm 1750 Venue and were thrilled with our experience. The venue itself is beautiful, with a rustic charm that made us feel like we were celebrating in our own private home. The owners were incredibly responsive throughout the planning process and made everything stress-free with their prompt communication. On the big day, they were on-site ensuring things ran smoothly so my husband and I could relax and enjoy our special moments. Their personal touches, from the gorgeous floral arrangements to helping bustle my dress, made us feel cared for. With its picture-perfect backdrop for our ceremony and reception along with the owners' constant support, Farm 1750 was the perfect intimate venue for our wedding. We're so grateful to have found this gem of a place and highly recommend them to other couples seeking a private, charming setting with attentive owners for their special day.

Hemlock Farm is an incredible place, and the owner, Jennifer, is absolutely amazing to work with. Our experience with Hemlock Farm was everything we wanted for our wedding weekend - including that we could stay there if we wanted to both Friday and Saturday nights. She had suggestions for other wonderful vendors to work with, to simply being a beautiful location. The Bridal Suite in the air-conditioned Barn was such a highlight to have our hair and make up done Saturday am. A plus was being so close to all major shopping areas for any last minute items needed. So glad we found Hemlock Farm!

I CANNOT say enough great things about Clyde's!!! I really wanted to keep things as simple and efficient as possible buy getting a venue that would be what I would consider to be "all inclusive" in terms of reception necessities (tables, chairs, food, silverware, glassware, dishes, linens, etc.). CHECK! I also really wanted our wedding reception to have an elevated simple yet elegant garden party aesthetic. DOUBLE CHECK! Plus, I used to show horses and am an avid equestrian, so the fact that they have an equestrian theme was just the icing atop of the cake! When we first went to look at the space, I fell in love with it! We ended up reserving the outdoor terrace for the reception and also. the two rooms upstairs for our wedding party to get ready in. The outdoor terrace was absolutely gorgeous and the reflecting pool was just spectacular! Having the rooms upstairs to get ready was great because then we had a place to escape and also to leave our belongings safely and securely. When getting ready, they had the waitstaff come upstairs and we could order anything off of the brunch menu. That was a lot of fun and made everything so relaxed and enjoyable! Tara and Keeley were absolutely fantastic! Super professional, super quick with responses, and great upbeat personalities! They really helped make our wedding day so spectacular! Another bonus, since we reserved the outdoor garden terrace, they also reserved and indoor option for us as well for a rain plan - FREE OF CHARGE! Everyone at the wedding was saying how great the food was, the atmosphere, the staff, everything was superb! I honestly can't think of anything I would change. I can't say enough great things about Clyde's I HIGHLY recommend them! I will definitely be recommending them to anyone looking for a venue for a wedding or any event, as they have so many different options for event spaces!! Go check out Clyde's NOW!! You won't regret it!

Patricia was so accommodating on making specific adjustments and was so professional and responsive the entire process. Shortly after finalizing everything is when I was in contact with Melissa. Melissa is honestly so incredibly sweet, professional, and 100000% a rockstar. The entire planning process was so smooth I honestly cannot say enough amazing things about Melissa. My mom and friends continue to text each other in our group chat going on and on about how perfect the day was and how amazing Melissa was. The entire staff at River creek including Oscar and the gentleman who sits at the front desk are soooo incredibly kind and just makes you feel so welcome the second you walk through the doors. I absolutely had the best wedding and I owe in large part to Patricia and Melissa and everyone at River creek. Thank you all so much for such an amazing day I will never forget.

They have excellent responsiveness, attention to detail and the food is amazing. Everything we wanted on our wedding day was accomplished. The only slight frustration I experienced was not having contact with our specific day of coordinator until the week of the wedding. But that didn’t even end up being an issue because, as I mentioned, everything was perfect. They’re so flexible and easy to work with. Though I wasn’t communicating with the same person every time I had questions, their internal communication was so strong and efficient that it seemed like I was talking the the same person.
