Reviews of Top of the Town
Review summary
Top of the Town is highly praised for its breathtaking views of Washington Monuments and Capitol, making it a perfect setting for weddings. The staff, including venue coordinators like Alex and Vivian, Day-Of-Coordinators like Denise Savage, and Chardonnae, received exceptional feedback for their professionalism and helpfulness in ensuring smooth wedding execution. Reviewers appreciated the elegant ballroom and terrace overlooking the city, despite minor logistical challenges like limited elevators that could impact load-in logistics and time restrictions. Prixes are considered high but worthwhile for the incredible view and excellent service provided.

Professional Network & Endorsements

We have been providing wedding cakes and desserts to special events at the Top of the Town for over a decade. The venue has a spectacular view and the staff are always accommodating to guests. We have personally attended two weddings here - wow, what a place!

Top of the Town is the most beautiful venue in and about the city of Washington, DC. It has - by far - the most wonderful view of the city. Newscasts and movies use this location as their premier spot for a backdrop. There is a great outdoor deck that is just the ultimate lure. I have seen every group of people drawn out there for the magnificent view. The windows, from inside, have the same view, but people just have to get outside - almost magnetically! It can be raining or a snowstorm, and they WILL go outside. On top of that, the service is great and the food is abundant and delicious. Top of the Town is a rare combination that works to make your wedding just right. You will love it!
