About

Carlyle Room is a stunning, art deco-inspired venue in the heart of Washington, DC where couples can host all of their wedding day events. This elegant venue features a range of beautiful facilities that can set the stage for every part of your special celebration. As one of the most sought-after venues in the DC area, this distinctive gem aims to realize your fairytale wedding.

Facilities and Capacity

As many as 225 guests can join couples on their wedding day at this striking venue. Two separate get-ready spaces, complete with private restrooms and showers, are available for you and your party to prepare for the day. You can then conveniently enjoy both your ceremony and reception in the same venue. For a ceremony in the main space, couples can set up the stage as their altar with an aisle runner laid carefully between theatre-style chairs. Alternatively, they can host the ceremony and cocktail hour on the rooftop with views of Washington, DC as their backdrop. For the reception, the room transforms, with tables and chairs set up all around the room. These classy leather dining chairs match the stage lights, backdrop, grand piano, and other accents throughout the room. The black, gold, and silver color palette is fashionable and modern, and the permanent herringbone-wood dance floor is perfect for dancing the night away. There's also a state-of-the-art sound and lighting system to take your reception to the next level. Across the street, there's a beautiful city park that was recently renovated, which makes a wonderful backdrop for wedding photos. The venue will be exclusively yours for the duration of your event, letting you enjoy your celebration in peace and privacy. You'll even have your own separate street entrance with your names displayed beneath the Carlyle Room entrance sign.

Services Offered

The experienced staff at Carlyle Room offers many services to keep couples and guests having the time of their lives. These include planning assistance, event setup and cleanup, event rentals, and more. You'll even be able to enjoy complimentary use of any of the venue's in-house decorations. Bartenders offer full bar service from a cash or open bar at the couple’s wedding reception or cocktail hour. They pour house beer, wine, and liquor with the optional addition of premium liquor. Champagne toasts and signature drinks are also offered as part of this venue’s bar services. American cuisine, cooked up by chefs in the club, can be prepared gluten-free, lactose-free, no pork, nut-free, vegan, or vegetarian to meet dietary needs.

This is the one, the search stops here!

When I say the Carlyle Club did a fantastic job, I mean it! They came through in the clutch. These guys helped us plan a wedding in 2 weeks. They have tabletops, flowers, and any other accessories you may need for your wedding. The food was fantastic and the price was unbeatable. COVID canceled our initial wedding and we scrambled to salvage our wedding date. We didn't think any venue could organize and provide the service last minute, but Carlyle did! We're thankful to Brennan, Sharon, and their whole staff. If you're planning a wedding or any other event, stop looking and pick this venue. You'll be amazed!!!

A Night to Remember

From booking the Carlyle Club in 2019 then postponing our event to summertime and decreasing the number of guests and adding in a ceremony at the Carlyle Club they were amazing. Brennan and Sharon were an amazing team and we super accommodating to everything we asked and made sure everyone was safe for the event. Sharon worked to make sure the space was set up and decorated for our special night and we were amazed with the job she did. One of the advantages of the Carlyle Club is the included items with the venue making planning easy. We loved the food during our tasting and made it difficult to decide which dishes we wanted. We got rave reviews from our guests of all of the food from the wedding. The event space was amazing and we cannot say enough about great Sharon was. We constantly had to rearrange our seating chart because of last minute guest changes due to COVID and Sharon made the changes easy and took the stress away from us because of how attentive she was. All of our guests had a safe and fun time. We highly recommend the Carlyle Club!

Excellent Customer Service

What an amazing venue!

My husband and I got married at The Carlyle Club on September 29, 2019! Everything was better than I could have ever imagined. The food was great, the atmosphere of the venue was excellent, and customer service was impeccable. The decor of this venue is astounding! A great nod to the 1920s era! Full service, one-stop shop! Food, drinks, and more!

Sharon, Brennan, and Meghan were such great hosts! Sharon was communicative and very helpful during the planning process of our wedding. They were also very accommodating, allowing us to have both our ceremony and reception at the venue.

The location is perfectly tucked away in Old Town Alexandria. There are plenty of hotels, shops, and parking options in close proximity to the venue. Your guests will love everything about this location.

I am so pleased that we made the decision to hold our wedding at the The Carlyle Club! It was truly a Cinderella-fairy tale kind of day!

Carlyle Club is one of my favorite wedding venues! Great sound and lighting systems built in allow me to focus on coordinating the music and timeline. Great location just outside Old Town Alexandria with The Westin right across the street.
