The DACOR Bacon house is truly amazing! Throughout our entire wedding, guests were coming up to us saying how impressed they were with the venue. It is a gem right in the middle of downtown DC. They have a huge, beautiful courtyard coupled with a stunning, historic interior. You will love it, and so will your photographer.

Also, I cannot complement the staff enough. They will work tirelessly to make sure your wedding is exactly the way you want it. They are friendly, hard working, and generous. Our wedding was the best day of our lives and we thank the whole team at DACOR Bacon for making it so.

Lastly, it is very convenient to have the catering on site. It's one less (big) thing for you to worry about.

I just had a wedding at DACOR Bacon House. The venue is stunningly beautiful, the food is incredible, and the space was PERFECT for our 120 person wedding. There are plenty of venues that offer these things, but what makes DACOR special is the people. Every single member of their staff is passionate about creating your perfect wedding, and they can make just about anything happen. I couldn't have asked for better people to coordinate such a beautiful day. I highly recommend this venue for your wedding!

DACOR Bacon is a sensational venue for hosting a party/wedding/school reunion/etc.. We have thrown a cocktails and dance party there for the past three years, and can't say enough about the professionalism of the staff, the quality of the food, the service, and the price. Best of all, our guests love DACOR Bacon and come back each year.

The house is an elegant Federal brick building (1801), home of John Marshall when he was on the Supreme Court. It is decorated with beautiful antiques and paintings. If you're having a large event, the garden AND the house are able to accommodate 180 people. When we wanted to rent a tent for dancing under outside, they helped us. When we wanted great DJs, they helped find them. For smaller events, the house is wonderful for a cocktail party, lunch or dinner. It retains its beautiful old world charm and is located just a stone's throw from the White House. Parking is fairly easy on weekends and in the evening

We have also used DACOR Bacon for alumni cocktail parties. Guests tremendously enjoyed the elegant and comfortable setting. Washingtonians love to come to parties there -- it's the only still functioning grand historic house in Foggy Bottom. People walked by and say, 'What's that? I'd love to go in there." Out of towners are thrilled with its location, history and beauty. The staff is very experienced and helpful. They go out of their way to ensure the success of the events. Sylvia, who is the events coordinator, always goes above and beyond to make sure that we have a good experience. Alba and Jose make sure all the logistics are running smoothly, and they do a wonderful job. Meg wonderfully oversees it all.
