    I found The Garden ALX here on Zola and was completely satisfied with our experience. We had a kid-friendly Sunday afternoon reception and the venue fit the bill perfectly. They had multiple packages to choose from and an hourly rate as well. We had a four hour reception and they threw in two hours of free setup and an hour to take down and clear up. They also have yard games and other add ons you can include. Mary was great to work with and helped with any questions along the way. The only advice I would give is to reach out to them directly instead of through Zola for a faster response initially. Given the high price tag if venues in the DC area The Garden is a great option if your wedding is under 100 guests and you are looking to have a more casual reception.

    We had a great experience working with Moriah. Early 2020, we had started making plans to host a small wedding reception in October 2020 at The Garden ALX. Unfortunately, COVID wrecked our plans, and Moriah later worked with us to use the space to host a going away party when my husband and I moved away from the D.C. area. I would highly recommend their venue and services to anyone!

  • AWESOME venue, beautiful & affordable

    The Garden was the perfect venue for my baby shower that had a boho chic theme. There was plenty of parking, and the event coordinator that I worked with, Moriah, was an absolute angel. She was around for whatever we needed and even shared some photos with me that she captured. I would host another event here any day.

  • Unique Venue with all the goods!

    The Garden by Building Momentum is a such an awesome spot for your wedding or event. A uniquely modern industrial vibe including open floor plan, built in bar, moveable tables, chairs and highboys are all on-site for use. Also -- PARKING(!): Easy and plentiful for guests with access to Capitol Beltway, Old Town, Alexandria and many hotels. PLUS its a veteran-owned business with some of the coolest people, ideas and projects in the works. If you want a fun and memorable wedding that is anything but cookie-cutter -- THE GARDEN IS FOR YOU!
