Hosting our wedding here was a delight! The venue, food, and organization/suggestions of Amy Rapaport-Carper made our event spectacular. I highly recommend this venue for your next event! Our guests were greeted by a well organized staff who provided food and drink in classy parlors decorated with fireplaces and wood furniture. Meanwhile my new husband and I took photos on the grounds and were hand delivered Whiskey down by the river! Once we entered the building a receiving line (as suggested) allowed us to greet each of our guests and usher them into the ballroom. The tables were set beautifully and our guest enjoyed salad/bread while they waited for the buffet to begin, which was delicious! The venue allowed our music/dancing to be managed by aux plug and a wireless microphone. Throughout eating/drinking/dancing the staff managed plates well, served generously and overall the service was excellent. Our grand sparkler exit was suggested/managed by Amy's team spectacularly. We were glad to work with Amy and her team was fantastic. We recommend this for your wedding or event!

Words cannot adequately describe how grateful we are to Jessica Hewlett and her staff at The Cove and Fawn Lake Country Club for the perfect wedding reception for our wedding on Saturday, October 30, 2021! However, we want to share some of our thoughts. When we came to visit The Cove at Fawn Lake Country Club the first time in June, we knew immediately that this beautiful new venue was the perfect place for our reception. We were impressed with Jessica’s professionalism, calm demeanor, and attention to detail. From the tasting experience to the coordination and planning prior to the big day, Jessica led us through this stressful process with caring, respect, and understanding, while being the consummate professional. Once the big day arrived and we entered the venue, our jaws literally dropped and brought us to happy tears at how perfectly Jessica set up the reception. It was magical! She coordinated the events of the afternoon and evening with precision, leaving us with no worries and just being able to enjoy our special day. Our guests raved at how wonderful the food was as well as the service. They were also in awe of the incredibly beautiful venue and lakeside setting. We both looked forward to this day all our life, and Jessica delivered our dream Wedding reception. As we said, it was simply a perfect day none of us will ever forget, and we are incredibly grateful to Jessica and The Cove at Fawn Lake!

I found The Garden ALX here on Zola and was completely satisfied with our experience. We had a kid-friendly Sunday afternoon reception and the venue fit the bill perfectly. They had multiple packages to choose from and an hourly rate as well. We had a four hour reception and they threw in two hours of free setup and an hour to take down and clear up. They also have yard games and other add ons you can include. Mary was great to work with and helped with any questions along the way. The only advice I would give is to reach out to them directly instead of through Zola for a faster response initially. Given the high price tag if venues in the DC area The Garden is a great option if your wedding is under 100 guests and you are looking to have a more casual reception.

My wife Brittany and I have had a fantastic and transformative experience dancing at Forever Dancing Ballroom! We found them at one of their open house events and immediately booked a package of lessons with Fabio for our wedding. Our dance lessons were always a fun break from wedding planning, and we left every dance lesson feeling better than we did when we walked in. It was exciting to learn new moves and choreography at every lesson. At first, we thought the techniques were difficult, but with practice and good coaching, we were able to learn the steps and perform a romantic and fun first dance at our wedding. It was thrilling to do our dance in front of such a supportive and enthusiastic crowd - we absolutely loved the magic moment of our first dance! My wife and I had a casual interest in dancing before we worked on the first dance with Fabio, but since then, we've become hooked and now we take group classes and have continued with private lessons as well. Jennifer Bonini manages the studio classes, billing, private lessons, events, and more. She is friendly, funny, and supportive, and very excellent at keeping everything organized. A talented dancer herself, Jennifer has also shared some excellent dance coaching with us from time to time. Other coaches at the studio are similarly personable and welcoming to all. The entire vibe at Forever Dancing is simply perfect for those looking for an approachable dance studio that will keep you smiling, moving, and have a blast dancing. I highly encourage you to visit Forever Dancing Ballroom as a studio: for wedding first dance lessons, group classes, cool workshops, and a fulfilling way to spend your time!

My husband and I got married in December '24 and had a great experience with the Sheraton Pentagon City. The hotel is really close to DCA so it was super easy for our guests to book AND the rate was AMAZING. Having a wedding so close to the holidays made travel much more expensive so having a hotel that was so reasonably priced was such a HUGE win. There was some construction in the surrounding area but none of our guests had anything negative to say about it, so if you see this don't be concerned. The stunning view from the ballroom spoke for itself! We worked most closely with John and Christian but the Sheraton team was huge and we met many different people responsible for our event. They are a well oiled machine so you don't need to worry about what happens if someone gets sick or is stuck in traffic on your big day! The rooms were lovely, with stunning views of all of DC! Overall I would HIGHLY recommend having your wedding here :)

They need a 10-star rating! So, I was on TikTok looking for bridal shower places when I stumbled upon this beauty. So, I asked my fiancé at the time, if you know me then what you know about this place? He said, you like it because it has all those crystals and chandeliers! I instantly hit the contact us button. I began communicating with Pura who was very personable. I said OK let me go look at these reviews. I went on every page I knew that had reviews and they were 5-star no complaints. I said well let me book to go see it in person because pictures can be deceiving. We scheduled a tour of the event and when I tell you this place can't be touched with a 10 foot pole. I have not found a Venue yet that can TOP this one. From the time you walk in, to the ballrooms, the best dressing area and even the bathrooms are so clean you can eat off the food (not that you would but that's how clean and neat the place is). Pura thanks for all the phone messages day or night one thing for sure she was never too busy to get back with me. She was very accommodating. Farah the decor was gorgeous. Andrea thanks for pulling things together as the coordinator alongside Pura. Every time I visited; they made you feel welcomed. My family talked about the level of hospitality that you all provided at the rehearsal and wedding. They made sure all my vendors were in place to take the stress off of me on my wedding day. The overall service gives you royal and rich vibes.

I photographed a wedding reception for a couple there and they were great to work with! They supplied golf carts for a large wedding party, so that we could go to some scenic spots on the course and take some gorgeous wedding portraits. The dinner and reception were excellent. The staff was attentive and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend The Country Club of Culpeper.

Exquisite and budget-friendly, they generously provided us with an entire day to revel in the celebration of my girlfriend's birthday. Our savings were substantial as they had every essential covered. Bringing our own refreshments not only added to the festivities but also allowed us to save significantly. The experience of celebrating all day with our friends and family is truly priceless. Abby, our wonderful host, was instrumental in making everything seamless and enjoyable. Thanks once again for an unforgettable experience!
