    The Coolest DC Wedding Venue

    We had the most amazing experience having our wedding at the Spy Museum! The views are incredible, the location is unbeatable, and the space itself feels modern and elegant. Our guests were excited and impressed by the venue and it set the stage for a great event. All were impressed with the rooftop views and location.

    The staff made everything easy, and having the Hilton right next door was perfect for our guests and for us to get ready. It’s also convenient to the airport and metro, which made travel stress-free. We held our ceremony on the rooftop, cocktail hour in the ballroom, and the reception back on the rooftop, which gave us a perfect indoor/outdoor flow without having to worry about weather.

    Spilled Milk Catering was fantastic and clearly knew the venue inside and out, which gave us total peace of mind. From the venue and views to the staff and catering, everything exceeded our expectations — highly recommend!

    Could not have chosen better!

    Our wedding and reception at the Spy museum could not have gone better! From start to finish, the staff treated us like VİPs. Not only were they responsive and timely in their communication, but they were also friendly and accommodating to all of our questions and requests along the way. We worked closely with Amanda during the planning of our wedding, and by the time the day came, she felt like a close friend! On top of the amazing service, our wedding day was an absolute dream! We took full advantage of the museum's exhibit spaces for our photos as well as the rooftop and ballroom for our reception, which offered incredible views and a truly unique exlerience to see the DC skyline. Our guests have continued to tell us how fun and interesting our day was, and we know that we couldn't have offered such a top notch experience without all the museum has to offer.

    Wedding of our dreams

    We were thoroughly impressed by Cori, Nykeesha, and the entire team at the International Spy Museum. From meeting with us many times prior to the event to being flexible with our requests to connecting us with their recommended vendors, they made our wedding dreams come true! It was the best weekend of our lives. It also doesn’t hurt that the Spy Museum has some of the most beautiful views of DC. We can’t recommend this venue enough!

    Can’t deny this - SPY was perfect!

    We and our guests are still talking about our perfect wedding atop the International Spy Museum. The SPY team and caterers made things so easy that we managed to visit with out-of-town guests and take naps on our wedding day. Communication with the SPY team was great. The rooftop was perfect for a formal ceremony with the Capitol and monuments in the background followed by a night of feasting and dancing for 100 guests - no moving the masses or guests waiting for the reception to start. We literally went from vows and final blessing to champagne and appetizers in less than 1 minute. Guests loved that the Hilton was walking distance from the museum and short ride from Reagan National Airport. We wouldn’t have changed anything! (Steve & Michael 4/21/23)

    Beautiful Space

    I had my wedding at the Spy Museum in September and the process was great. Cori our sales manager was wonderful to work with to Amanda and Manon helping my vision for the day come true. Even on the day of our event captains Allie and Ben were an absolute pleasure to work with. It’s a beautiful venue and loved our time there.

    Epic Wedding Space

    The Spy Museum Rooftop Terrace was the wedding location of my dreams. The views are jaw dropping and the space really needs minimal décor to make a huge statement. The staff was super attentive throughout the wedding planning process, accommodating venue tours at the last minute and responding to emails almost instantly. We had a relatively small wedding and the space didn't swallow us or make it feel like we couldn't fill it up. It is really such a memorable venue and I am so happy we got married here!

    Best urban venue with a FULLY outdoor rooftop

    While searching for a wedding reception venue in DC for our small wedding, it was hard to find a place that wasn't too big, allowed red wine and didn't cost a fortune. Luckily, I had been to the Spy Museum for work events over the years and contacted them. I'm so glad I checked in to see if they could hold our wedding reception for 80 guests (turned out to be 65 in the end).

    The location is so convenient in the Chinatown area of DC. It sits between two hotels and has everything you need to keep your guests happy for the weekend. The event room itself is a great size for any wedding for 100 or less people. The room looked absolutely stunning that night and I loved that the rooms are full of windows, since I hate dark ballrooms. The staff and caterers were really wonderful to work with. They made everything so easy and our event was perfect.

    Plus, I enjoyed telling people that we were holding our wedding reception at the International Spy Museum. Every response was the same; "that's so cool".

    Perfect place for our wedding

    We knew we wanted a big open space with character and lots of light and the spy museum checked all the boxes. They did a fantastic job working with us to set up the space and the views of the capitol were incredible. Highly recommend!

    The Perfect Backdrop

    We absolutely loved this venue. Its location was perfect for our guests with walkable hotels, transit, and DC attractions. Everyone raved about the views - which made for the perfect backdrop to our wedding. The space is easy to customize, has great lighting, and plenty of options.
