Located in the heart of downtown Washington, NC, the Washington Civic Center is a sophisticated waterfront wedding venue. This spacious facility features 14,000 square feet of event space that can be used for all your wedding weekend activities - rehearsal, rehearsal dinner, ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. Formerly a train depot, the refurbished Washington Civic Center still plays an important role in the community as one of the city’s premier event locations. Vaulted ceilings and exposed beams combine to make the space feel rustic and elegant. Hardwood floors offer a refined platform for the newlyweds to have a memorable first dance. The dark tones of wood and exposed brick help to create a warm and cozy experience. String lighting can be arranged to emphasize the feeling of rustic romance. White drapery sets the scene for an ethereal celebration. The Washington Civic Center has plenty of room for over 250 guests. An in-house planning team is on hand to get things up and running. For those who don’t call North Carolina home, the team also services destination weddings. The venue offers a two-day package for weddings which opens up endless opportunities for a personalized celebration. Make sure to ask about our Something Borrowed room that contains greenery, table décor, signage, and plenty of other decorations that our clients can use at no extra charge.
