I cannot recommend Milton Ridge highly enough for your wedding venue! From the moment we started planning, we loved that we didn't need to search for multiple vendors—the venue provided an incredible baker, DJ, and photographer, all of great quality. The team was extremely organized and responsive over email throughout the entire planning process, always making sure we had all our questions answered. They were so supportive and accommodating, genuinely a pleasure to work with, and the cost was fair for everything included. On our wedding day, everything ran super smoothly. We especially loved the bridal and groom's cottages on site, which made the transition from getting ready to the ceremony seamless. The staff clearly cared about our experience and our guests', offering great ideas to ensure the day flowed well. They made sure we were comfortable every step of the way. If you're searching for the perfect wedding venue that has everything you need, look no further than Milton Ridge!

I had the pleasure of working with the director of catering, Liliana Klein, on a gorgeous wedding this February. I was the couple's planner and was thrilled to be able to produce a wedding at Ritz Carlton Georgetown. Throughout the process, Liliana was so professional: warm and welcoming, communicative, addressed any and all questions, followed up after any meetings promptly, and on the day was FANTASTIC to work with. I could tell it was a high priority of Liliana to go above and beyond for the couple in making their wedding weekend a dream experience for them and an effortless celebration for their guests. Would work here for every wedding if I could! Plus, gatherings of 100 or less are my favorite!! Thank you, Liliana and RC staff.

Josephine Butler Parks Center 

5.0

Washington, DC
  • Up to 200 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $3,900

Overlooking Meridian Hill/Malcolm X Park, the Italian Renaissance Revival former embassy is now a vibrant community space for events of all kinds. Whether you are planning a small, intimate staff retreat in the marble-columned porte-cochere, or a large gathering in our spacious grand ballroom, the historic Josephine Butler Parks Center will set a stunning scene for your celebration.

We had the most beautiful wedding here in September. The center was perfect for our ceremony and reception, where we had 90 guests. From first providing a tour of the venue to answering random questions in the months after, Katrina and Ashleigh were extremely helpful and we appreciated their flexibility. The venue provides chairs and tables, which was very helpful planning-wise. One note: There are a lot of stairs and there is no elevator, so this may not be the space for you if you need more accessibility. We received many compliments about the inherent beauty of the space, and we loved that it had separate spaces. On the first floor, we had a board game room, bar and photo booth room setup, as well as our guest book. On the second floor, we had another bar on the terrace, the food room for a dinner buffet and dessert afterward, and the main ceremony/reception ballroom. If we had to do it again, we'd do it at Josephine Butler in a heartbeat.

Kate and all the Viceroy staff were awesome and available to guide as we hosted a small, socially distance and intimate wedding reception. She was always available and flexible. She is the most awesome ambassador for the Viceroy hotels. The hotel was new and well maintained and we loved the outdoor patio where we held our reception.

Mess Hall 

5.0

Washington, DC
  • Up to 150 guests
  • Select services
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $6,000

Mess Hall is a modern wedding venue located in the heart of Washington, D.C. The only private event space in DC that looks into an open industrial kitchen, Mess Hall provides an urban and inviting atmosphere that your guests won’t soon forget. The polished concrete floors, exposed industrial ceilings and mid-century modern décor all make this venue the unique and versatile space you’ve been searching for. Having hosted events for countless local clients, such as DC Brau, The Smithsonian Institution, The Embassy of Japan and more, Mess Hall has the experience and reputation needed to host the celebration of a lifetime. For a true urban wedding experience in the middle of one of America’s most well-known cities, look no further than Mess Hall!

Hosting our wedding at Mess Hall was one of the best decisions we made! The space is just what we wanted: industrial chic near the MBT with a covered outdoor area and access to amazing food. As a culinary incubator, they have a ton of great vendors on site, and while you don’t have to use one of their partners, that was a huge draw to us because we wanted to support small business and do something different than the standard chicken/fish/vegetable offering you get from most wedding caterers (shoutout to Kam & 46 for incredible Hawaiian/Filipino food!). While there was some staff turnover during the planning process, Al’s consistency and guidance gave us confidence that everything would run smoothly on the day of. The space is very customizable, it’s easy to choose what kind of furniture and lighting you want, plus the digital screen and sound system (both indoors and outdoors), helped us fully transform the space to achieve everything we envisioned. Our only concerns during the planning process was the size of our party – we had over 120 attend – so we didn’t do the traditional assigned seats and tables, but nevertheless there was plenty of seating space indoors and outdoors, it didn’t feel too crowded at all, and there was never a line for the two single-stall bathrooms the entire night. Not only was the space great, but the service was superior. During our wedding reception, Al was incredibly attentive to us and anticipated our needs even before we did. For example, he regularly offered to fetch us drinks from the bar when he saw us finishing our beers and when he saw one of standing with friends, he immediately brought over a standing table so we could rest our food and drinks. Our guests were really impressed when we told them he was the owner of Mess Hall. I’m sure there’s a lot of things he did that we didn’t even see – all of which helped our wedding go smoothly. Overall, we were extremely pleased with Mess Hall and hope you will be too!
