About this venue
Your history starts here when you say “I do” at our exquisitely rehabilitated Civil War-era Naval Hospital, which was commissioned by President Lincoln in 1864. If you’re looking to plan for the future, whether you’d like an outdoor wedding ceremony in our beautifully landscaped gardens, an indoor ceremony in our light-filled rooms with 14-foot high ceilings and 8-foot windows, or something in between, your wedding and reception will be a timeless, romantic celebration to last the ages. The unique elegance of Hill Center and its exquisite campus comes together with today’s amenities to give you contemporary convenience with historic charm.
