Perfect DC Venue

Everything about my experience at Toolbox was amazing! I cannot recommend Oli, the day of coordinator enough. She ensured that everything ran smoothly and answered every last minute question. The best part of the venue is that it is gorgeous and unique and needs very few decorations. I cried when I went upstairs to see set up for dinner. It looked like a dream with all the lights that toolbox provided.

A hidden gem that is so worth it!

We hosted our winter wedding at Toolbox with 65 guests, and it was nothing short of magical! The venue is absolutely perfect for a winter wedding—intimate, warm, and beautifully designed to create a cozy yet elegant atmosphere. The space felt inviting and romantic, making it an ideal setting to celebrate with our loved ones.

A huge shoutout to our day-of coordinator, Kseniya, who was simply phenomenal. She was incredibly responsive, detail-oriented, and always one step ahead in making sure everything ran smoothly. From coordinating vendors to ensuring every little detail was in place, she truly made the day seamless and stress-free for us.

If you're looking for a beautiful, intimate venue that’s perfect for a winter wedding, Toolbox Art Studio is the place to go! We are so grateful for the unforgettable memories we made here and would highly recommend it to anyone.

Amazing venue!!

This was the perfect spot to have my wedding shower. The venue sells itself. The owners were on top of everything and made sure all vendors we had were set up and comfortable as well. Could not recommend more!!
