Located in the heart of Washington, DC, The Schuyler is an elegant banquet hall wedding venue. This space is named for the Schuyler sisters, with a hope that any events held here are every bit as memorable as the historic family. Its Art Deco style is seamlessly integrated with modern facilities, like soaring columns wrapped in smart lighting. Ceremonies and receptions can be held here, as well as elopements. Couples are also invited to host engagement parties, showers, and rehearsal dinners here.

Facilities and Capacity

The Schuyler was designed to adapt to any needs a couple might have. The 12,000 square feet of event space can accommodate up to 1,200 guests for an elegant cocktail reception. Seated meals can also be hosted here, with a capacity of 400. The venue is split over two floors, ideal for couples who want a grand celebration. In the main hall, high ceilings create a sense of airiness while an opulent staircase is ideal for a dramatic entrance. There is also 4,000 square feet of pre-event space for those who want to get ready for the milestone on-site. A mezzanine and green room complete the available offerings. We have a full-size industrial catering kitchen for preparing your meal, whether it's a buffet, hors d'oeuvres, or plated. The venue features valet parking for guests' convenience, and is a wheelchair-accessible space. Out-of-town guests will appreciate the proximity to various airports, and the convenience of being connected to The Hamilton Hotel for their sleeping room needs.
