The Historic Alfred I. Dupont Building was the perfect venue for our wedding. From the very beginning, the staff was super attentive and responsive to all of our questions and needs. The space itself is absolutely gorgeous - the high ceilings, elegant decor, and stunning chandeliers created such a beautiful and unique backdrop for our celebration. One of the best things about this venue was that they let us use any caterer we wanted, which was incredibly important to us. The food and drinks flowed all night long, from 8pm to 6am! The team at the Dupont Building truly went above and beyond to make our wedding day absolutely perfect.
