“Boqueria Penn Quarter was an exceptional choice for our reception venue. From the first time we met with Hadley, their communication was professional, responsive, and well organized. On the day of our wedding reception, the staff was warm, attentive, and truly made us and our guests feel special. The food was absolutely delicious - our guests are still raving about it! The team even surprised us with an extra treat, adding a special churro dessert that was a huge hit. Throughout the event, the food and beverages were plentiful and kept flowing seamlessly.

“Sonny's Pizza was the perfect venue for our classic backyard-style wedding in the heart of DC. Alanna, the event coordinator, was incredibly easy and flexible to work with - she was so sweet and accommodating throughout the entire planning process. The space itself was amazing value for the number of people we had (125 guests), and they were extremely helpful in ensuring our wedding day went off without a hitch. We wanted a casual, intimate vibe for our wedding, and Sonny's allowed us to have that same backyard feel right in the city. We're so glad we chose to work with a local DC vendor for our special day.”

“The Perfect Venue for Our Wedding We cannot recommend Guilford Hall enough as a wedding venue. From the moment we first toured the space, we knew it was the perfect fit for us. The combination of the industrial aesthetic with Art Deco details set the stage for an unforgettable celebration. We held our ceremony in the Beer Garden, hosted cocktail hour in the Beer Garden using the Cocktail Room and Cigar Lounge, and had our reception upstairs in the Crown Room. The flow of the event worked perfectly, and the pictures we captured in those spaces are absolutely incredible. The venue fit our style in every way. We chose a buffet for dinner, and it was amazing. Our guests are still talking about how much they loved the food—especially the crab cakes, chicken, and steak. Our signature drinks were made just how we wanted them, and the bar service was top-notch. A huge shoutout to Chef Mauricio and the entire kitchen staff for going above and beyond to help us curate the perfect menu and flawlessly serving 115 guests. The food was incredible and never stopped coming—our guests couldn’t stop raving. We also want to give special recognition to Dani, the Events Planner at Guilford Hall. Dani made us feel incredibly comfortable from start to finish. She went out of her way multiple times to make sure everything went smoothly and that we felt at ease throughout the process. Her attention to detail was unmatched, and without her, we would have been all over the place. She is absolutely incredible—if you have the chance to work with her, take it. She went above and beyond every step of the way to make our day perfect. Working with the entire Guilford Hall team was an absolute breeze. Every staff member was professional, accommodating, and dedicated to making our vision come to life. We couldn’t be more grateful for everything they did to help us host the wedding and reception of our dreams. If you’re looking for a venue that delivers unforgettable memories, exceptional service, and a one-of-a-kind atmosphere—look no further than Guilford Hall.”

“We want to express our deepest gratitude to our wedding coordinator Olivia at The Belvedere and the whole team for helping make our wedding day absolutely perfect. Everything came together so beautifully and it was truly the most special, magical night! Our ceremony space was absolutely stunning, and the cocktail hour and reception ran so smoothly. Everyone was raving about how gorgeous everything looked! We had so much fun doing our champagne tower, it felt so glamorous and joyful, such a highlight of the evening. When we walked into the reception space, I was completely blown away. It was the room of my dreams, every detail was perfect, from the lighting to the setup to the flow of the night. The food was absolutely incredible (people are still talking about it!), and everyone loved the drinks and service at the bar.

“We were the first wedding that True Chesapeake had done and they exceeded our expectations. We really had a unique wedding experience thanks to them. Guests had access to an oyster bar right when they walk in as well as an open bar. Planning was easy because almost everything was through True Chesapeake. They set up the chairs for our ceremony, then flipped the room. They set up the bridal party space with drinks and snacks so we didn’t go hungry. Communicating with their team was easy, punctual , and efficient. The food was obviously in house and AMAZING! Everyone said we had the best wedding food.
