  Amazing Welcome Dinner Venue

  We chose this location for our wedding welcome dinner and it was perfect. There's indoor and outdoor patio seating with ample room to walk around and sit. The decor was modern and industrial which we really liked, and it was close to a metro station with lots of parking. Mary was great to correspond with and Sterling was there to help us throughout our event, especially with connecting our laptop/phone to the speaker system seamlessly. We used the dry bar for our drinks and the tables for our catered food/desserts and the space didn't look cramp at all. We set up a photo booth using their greenery wall and that was a big hit with our friends! The venue provided us time to set up and clean up after which helped us a lot. The garage also opened so people could enter which gave it a more airy and open feel. We had about 100 guests but it could honestly fit more without being cramped. We recommend this venue for any event!

  AMAZING! Such a cool vibe.

  I had my wedding at The Garden and it was the perfect venue for us! Beautiful, rustic setting that worked for our ceremony and reception. The outdoor space really topped things off so our guests had lots of room to spread out and play outdoor games. I hired Moriah Veer as my day of coordinator which made the day so much less stressful for me. She thought of questions to ask me in advance to make sure the day ran smoothly before I even thought of them. Since she works at the venue she knew what would be best for everything. I highly recommend this venue for weddings or other events!

  A beautiful event space

  I'm so glad I chose to use The Garden for my sisters baby shower. It was so beautiful. Moriah was great. She was responsive and helped me navigate the covid guidelines. I would definitely book an event here again.

  Coastal Fashion Week Fashion Show

  We produced one of our multi-city fashion shows at this venue and booked it sight unseen. Not ever seeing this venue before we showed up the day of the show of course made us a little anxious. We were absolutely thrilled when we arrived and were greeted with the most professional staff we had worked with. The venue was amazing, accommodating to all of our needs, beautifully decorated with more options that we expected to help make our event truly successful. The staff was so helpful and had smiles on their face the whole time. We will be using this venue when in Virginia every time and would recommend to anyone to create lasting memories with no stress.

  AWESOME VENUE, beautiful & affordable

  The Garden was the perfect venue for my baby shower that had a boho chic theme. There was plenty of parking, and the event coordinator that I worked with, Moriah, was an absolute angel. She was around for whatever we needed and even shared some photos with me that she captured. I would host another event here any day.

  Excellent!!!

  The venue was great!
  Moriah veer was very helpful throughout the whole process. the guest loved the place and inquired about how I found out about it.
  Moriah really made things easy for us.
  Let me tell you, through the whole party somehow my phone ended up in the trash and at the end she took our the trash for us. She went through the trash for me y’all!! She found my phone!!
  So grateful to her

  A hidden gem

  Tremendous venue, and extremely accommodating staff. My husband and I had our wedding here in December, and Moriah was a godsend for us throughout the entire planning process (COVID times...). It was everything we could've asked for and more! We would highly recommend The Garden to anyone looking to host an event/wedding in the Alexandria/Washington D.C. area.

  Flexible and Friendly Vendor

  We had a great experience working with Moriah. Early 2020, we had started making plans to host a small wedding reception in October 2020 at The Garden ALX. Unfortunately, COVID wrecked our plans, and Moriah later worked with us to use the space to host a going away party when my husband and I moved away from the D.C. area. I would highly recommend their venue and services to anyone!

  Amazing experience

  If you are searching for a wedding/event venue in Northern Virginia, please give The Garden Alexandria a call! They go above & beyond and definitely exceed our expectations for our wedding! Moriah was patient, kind & knowledgeable, things that were greatly appreciated by us during these crazy times AND after having to find a 2nd venue for our wedding after short notification that our org venue would not be able to accommodate events. They are a hidden gem! They are affordable AND flexible on several policies such as outside vendors (caterer & bartender) which can be hard to find in our area. We will be forever grateful to them!

  Cute and cozy venue

  This place really doesn’t need a lick of decoration to pull of any event. It's small best fit for a wedding/event with no more than 60 people seated. Staff is all friendly. They provide chairs, and beautiful wood tables, a large prep kitchen for caterer, and large bar for the bartender, and the entire venue space.
  
  Floors are concrete so a little dirty if you have a long gown. Overall a very nice spot to get married, or have a birthday party any event....hotels minutes away.

  Exceeds expectations

  The Garden Alexandrias team was extremely professional and accommodating. Although it was not our first choice for our big day, it was beautiful, Ecclectic and the price was more than reasonable.
  
  Moriah, whom was our POC for the venue was in constant communication with our wedding coordinator and our big day was nothing shy of magical.
  
  Extremely pleased with our experience.
  
  Thanks
