Recommendations

Our "go-to" special event space — An Eventective User from Washington, DC
We had a special company event here and it was great. From the small details to the catering option, it was great. The staff were so kind and felt like they were invested in our event too. Enjoyed the space and will absolutely use it as our "go-to" special event space.
Great space, and good communication! — An Eventective User
This venue is a prime location near the White House (and the holiday market, in the winter months)! The space was perfect for our event. The contacts I spoke to at this venue always responded very quickly and were very willing to work with my student organization.
