Our wedding at Woodlawn was absolutely beautiful, and went without a hitch from start to finish. Expectations, timelines, and communication were really clear, the price was quite reasonable for the DMV area, and we got super lucky with a beautiful fall day. Set up and tear down were straightforward, and we used a planner recommended by the venue to ensure the day went smoothly, taking all the guesswork out of it. All in all, I can't imagine having done our wedding anywhere else!

We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful venue and the most perfect day. I loved the tent, the cocktail area, and the lawn for ceremonies. Having predefined areas helped create a great flow for our wedding.

There are a few major decisions which have to be made when planning a wedding, but ultimately the venue is the biggest. We assumed we would be visiting venues for weeks trying to narrow it down, but luckily we visited Woodlawn first and immediately fell in love. After checking out 2 or 3 more venues to see what’s available it was very clear that Woodlawn was for us. The historic property carries so much American history, as it was part of George Washington’s estate. The colonial mansion made for a unique and beautiful backdrop for our ceremony. The grounds are kept in pristine condition and offer plenty of space for people to have some time away to explore. They even offer tours of the home after the ceremony for guests interested in learning about the home. We had many guests take the tour and loved every minute of it. The cocktail hour area was a top highlight of the evening; with its bistro lights above and fountain in the middle. The reception area offered plenty of space for our 125 guests to dance the night away. The entire team at Woodlawn was fantastic! We worked with Kathleen who was always responsive during the planning phase and very active the day of to ensure everything went smoothly. We could not be happier with Woodlawn’s exclusive caterer, Design Cuisine. Woodlawn and Design Cuisine work so well together to make everything perfect. There was literally nothing for me to worry about the day of. Woodlawn is a special place which will provide an unforgettable event for everyone there.
