Andrew W. Mellon Auditorium 

5.0

Washington, DC
  • Venue
  • Up to 620 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $22,275

The Andrew Mellon Auditorium stands, without question, among the very finest classical buildings in America. The gilded auditorium and lobbies are among the nation's most magnificent interiors. With its stunning columns and classic styling, over 10,000 square feet of indoor space, and a gorgeous balcony with impressive views of the city, the Andrew Mellon Auditorium is a premier location for conferences, galas and receptions. The venue fee is $22,275 for under 599 guests, and $22,800 for 600-1000 guests, and that includes the building rental and support costs, as well as off-site scanning of your vendor vehicles, security for your load in/out and one set of front doors for guest entrance. When hosting at the Mellon, you will need to work with one of our approved vendors to supply all of your event needs (catering, rentals, décor, valet, ect.).

Why you'll love this venue

  • Space for a large guest list
  • Both indoor and outdoor options
  • Multiple event spaces

Venue considerations

  • No free parking
  • Limited cleanup and setup services
  • Lighting and sound are not included
I have had the pleasure of working with the team at the Mellon professionally, so when it was time for my wedding I knew I would have a great experience in this space. The venue is one of the most gorgeous in DC -- the columns, balcony overlook, green rooms, and stage make this a really perfect venue for a wedding. We had our ceremony at a church, but if needed we could have held it in the two green rooms toward the rear of the building (look up photos, its gorg.) The venue itself just absorbs color, lighting and sound, so its easy to add some simple or even over the top decor to make this space fit for your vision. You can have a number of different floorplans and seating arrangements, so its uniquely versatile for such a large venue in DC The team was very easy to work with - the information that they have is very detailed, and they're happy to talk through the details, schedule walkthroughs, and answer questions as it relates to the contracts and requirements to host an event there. Since it is such a well oiled machine, the paperwork and details that the team shares is very straightforward and to the point, and they're always ready to help answer questions as it comes to suppliers, insurance, and general operations. They have vast experience with different suppliers, including caterers and wedding planners who are in the space all the time -- they really want to simplify the process -- which with this type of property can be quite challenging! The venue is absolutely gorgeous, and every single one of our guests were in awe of the size and scope of the space. Two things to remember - you'll have to get your dance floor through their team (which is easy because the install and dismantle is efficient) and the restrooms are on a separate level from the mail hall - but there are elevators and two beautiful staircases that make this not a big deal. We loved our day and wish we could relive it again!

A luxury beauty experience for the modern woman! My beauty philosophy is simple, "When you look good you feel good. When you feel good you do better".I started Nina Renee beauty because I believe that we all deserve to have the celebrity-style beauty experience of our dreams. As a high-end makeup artist servicing some of Washington DC's most prestigious residents for over eight years, I always found it hard to find my "Glam team".

Awarded Best of Zola
I would recommend NRBeauty Co. to any bride to be. Nina is incredibly attentive and communicative in addition to being transparent about her pricing. Andrea and Andejla were my glam team, and I absolutely loved their work, as did the rest of my bridal party. The makeup and hair lasted for at least 12 hours (likely more). NRBeauty Co. was by far the most professional team I communicated with. I appreciated the portal Nina managed which included all communications, invoices, and glam guides. My bridal party also appreciated the Google form they submitted in advance of the day to share their inspo & desired looks! Nina also confirmed when the glam team was en route the day of the wedding, which was highly appreciated given how stressful the morning-of can be. To top it all off, they ran on time / ahead of schedule the day of the wedding!

Carla Pressley - Hair Stylist & Makeup Artist 

4.0

  • Beauty professional
  • Serves Oxon Hill, MD

I’m Carla Pressley and I do hair and makeup! I’m a mixed African American/Korean chick born the year of the DOG in July which makes me a fiercely loyal sentimental Cancer. I also talk to most dogs and have been the proud mother to two Jindo dogs. I laugh EXACTLY like my two brothers, TRY eating vegan most of the time, LOVE yoga, and tear up EVERY time dads see’s the bride for the first time.

When I was looking for a hair and makeup artist, I wanted someone who I felt confident could help me decide the look for my wedding and come up with options for my naturally curly hair. However, I knew the deciding factor would be whether I felt confident that the artist could make every member of my bridal party that was diverse (in terms of race, disability, and LGBTQ) bridal party look and feel beautiful. Carla's portfolio showed me that she really lives her values of inclusion and I booked her with full confidence after our phone consultation the day after my inquiry. She gave me different options for the schedule for either just her or her and a team. I ended up going with the option of her and her team to not start so early and have a more efficient schedule. I was right to place my trust in her and the team she works with! I did a trial a couple weeks before my wedding, which I cannot recommend highly enough. It was definitely one of the most fun experiences of the entire wedding planning process! Carla spent a few hours with me trying different looks based on my inspiration photos and the vibe of my dress. I left so excited and knowing I had options I liked based on how I was feeling and the weather. On my wedding day she and her team were fantastic and executed flawlessly and made everyone comfortable on what was a hectic morning. My mother hadn't worn makeup since her wedding almost 40 years ago. My sister and maid of honor is also autistic with intellectual disabilities and had never worn makeup but wanted to be included (and look like a princess!) Carla and her team (special shoutout to makeup artist Mong!) were so patient and understanding and put them both at ease, which I appreciated so much. My other bridesmaids had a wonderful experience with makeup artist Nas as well. In terms of myself, I can say without question I've never felt more beautiful and glamorous but still myself than I did on my wedding day. Carla came with us to the church and fixed my veil that blew off during my first look and touched up everyone before we walked down the aisle. The look stayed the whole day and my hair held through the dip in our first dance into the after party. Going with Carla for hair and makeup was easily one of the best decisions I made in wedding planning and I cannot recommend her highly enough!

  • Photographer
  • Classic style
  • Starts at $2,150
  • Serves Oxon Hill, MD

I love how exciting and creative wedding photography can be while also giving me the opportunity to create something that is so meaningful to others. I got started with photography back in Michigan as a kid with my mom's old Minolta SLR. It wasn't until years later at art school in Kansas City that I realized how fulfilling and exciting wedding photography could be. It has been my focus ever since.

I highly HIGHLY recommend Asa! He and his colleague photographed our December '24 wedding and they did an AMAZING job. Asa has such a calming presence and on such a chaotic and stressful day it was so, so needed. He was so wonderful to work with in the planning and helped us make a thoughtful plan to ensure we got all of the photos we wanted. We had a traditional Catholic mass and he and his colleague were able to easily follow all of the Church's rules while capturing the essential moments flawlessly. We got every photo we wanted during the mass which was incredibly impressive. We also got shots at sunset by the water and Asa perfectly captured our vision! These are some of our favorite photos. He also captured all of the energy and fun that we had and we walked away with multiple photos of every single one of our guests which was such a treat. Lastly - his pricing is so fair and really competitive to all the photographers we got quotes from. He was easily able to work with our budget and was flexible to our specific needs. Overall - I would HIGHLY highly recommend Asa!

Mimi is so awesome to work with! I'm very picky about my eye makeup but Mimi was so accomodating! It took about 3 trials to figure out what I wanted and it was super easy to schedule with her. Her price point for the trials is hard to beat. I also wanted a smooth look for my to-be husband for our pictures and she did such a great job! I still go to her for makeup for special occasions like birthdays and anniversaries. My experience was superb all around!

When I was looking for a photographer for my wedding, I didn't know what to expect. I thought I would still have to worry about poses, logistics and everything else on the day of my event. I found Tai 4 months prior to our wedding day and we've had two consultations during this time and she made me feel so secure that I could leave everything photo related in her hands! On the day of, she guided us through the best places and poses, made sure we got photos with everyone and helped us get our big family together for the most beautiful shots. I don't plan on getting married again but we know Tai and her team have become our family photographer now :)

She arranged virtual meetings with us every week in the time leading up to the wedding. She presented us with a range of options for the different components of the ceremony, offering various translations and interpretations of traditional texts, and explaining the meaning and significance behind each ritual. She encouraged us to choose what resonated with us, and was respectful and accepting of all our decisions. Rabbi Lia made our ceremony personal and meaningful. We are so grateful to have had her as our officiant — she helped make our wedding day truly memorable!

  • Serves Oxon Hill, MD

Born and raised in Maryland, and will forever be a Maryland girl at heart. I relocated to Virginia in 2015 after graduating from the University of Maryland, College Park (GO TERPS). I started my planning journey in college, planning my sorority's events, along with various corporate and charity events. After graduation, I started shadowing wedding planners in the industry, learning the ever-changing world that we call wedding planning, and the rest is history! I love making couples dreams a reality!

If you don’t have a day of coordinator, look no further! Laura and her team have been incredible. I reached out to Laura after she was the coordinator for my friends wedding and have not been disappointed since that day. Laura has been the utmost example of professionalism and organization. We chose her day of coordinator services as I was pretty confident about my planning abilities, but we didn’t want to have to do anything on our day of. If you do not feel confident with planning, I would seek out her services for full coverage planning as she did just a stellar job with sending us vendors, connecting with the ones that we had, and helping us with all the details. Day of our expectations were exceeded! Once her team arrived, Kayla and Ivy, we didn’t have to do a thing! The day of our plans changed a lot and they really kept us on time. We had to deal with a tropical storm that popped up two days before the wedding, which was wholly unfortunate. Our venue and everything was inside, however we wanted to take our first look and party photos outside. On the day of the coordinators helped us find an additional space to take photos in and took care of everything. It was so great to have Kayla and Ivy by our side because I didn’t have to worry about anything, I didn’t have to look at the schedule, I didn’t have to worry if that was set up correctly, or this was set up correctly or if vendors had arrived and we’re on time and tell them where to go etc. etc. It felt great to just spend my entire wedding day relaxing and enjoying the beautiful day it was. Thank you Laura, Kayla, and Ivy for making our event the absolute best that it could be.

Catholic Contemporary And Traditional Weddings

  • Serves Oxon Hill, MD

Father David is a wedding officiant based in the Washington metropolitan area. Father David is there to help curate the perfect ceremony that fits your vision and your faith, while offering a modern and authentic experience.

My partner and I are a same-sex couple who both come from Catholic backgrounds. Although we decided to have a garden ceremony and not a church ceremony, it was important for our families to feel at home. Our initial ask of Fr. David was not to officiate our ceremony (because we had a courthouse ceremony also planned), but to deliver a homily. However, over time, my and my partner's plans expanded slightly to include other aspects of a traditional Catholic wedding (blessings for the parents and godparents, the cord ceremony, etc.). Fr. David was more than accommodating and so supportive throughout our journey. With his support and understanding, we felt very comfortable incorporating these aspects of tradition that mean so much to us and our families, while still making the ceremony uniquely our own. He is so gentle, encouraging, and warm, and strikes the perfect balance between signifying authority given the importance of the occasion, and providing commentary to elicit laughter. We feel very blessed for Fr. David to be a significant part of our special day!

They provided a great experience throughout the entire planning process, always going the extra mile to ensure our special day was perfect. The venue itself is clean and modern, with plenty of convenient parking for all our guests. They even helped us find a more affordable DJ and caterer, saving us money without compromising on quality. We couldn't have asked for a better venue to host our wedding - White Vine Venue truly exceeded our expectations in every way.

Eat & Smile Catering 

5.0

  • Caterer
  • Serves Oxon Hill, MD

A veteran of DC's fine dining community, Oliver started Eat & Smile Catering in 2007 to help bring local sourcing and sustainable practices to DC's catered events. He strives to build every wedding menu specifically to the tastes of each couple blending their culinary heritage and tastes to make their menu as unique as their wedding.

From our very first conversation with Oliver (owner), we knew we were in good hands with a professional who knew his stuff. He and his team's professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine excitement for our special day set them apart from the start. Throughout the planning process, he was attentive, responsive, and truly listened to our vision. Our tasting was so much fun and helped us realize we had picked the right company. On the big day, the Eat & Smile Team was seamless—everything ran smoothly, and they made sure every guest felt taken care of. We didn’t have to worry about a thing, which allowed us to be fully present and enjoy every moment! And the food—wow/no words/chef's kiss!! Our guests are still raving about the delicious dishes, from the beautifully presented appetizers to the decadent desserts. We enjoyed everything, and it was clear that the food was made with care and expertise. It’s rare to find a caterer who exceeds expectations in both service and cuisine, but this team did just that. We can’t thank Oliver and his dedicated staff enough for making our celebration so memorable. If you want your event to be truly special, look no further!

Sam Hurd Photography

My style is distinct, a result of both my unrelenting commitment to my craft and complete trust from clients who commission me. You’re not going to read about any awards, badges, or “top 10 lists” because what matters is you’re in love with the work that you see and are ready to trust me entirely to do what I do. This trust drives me to find the perfect balance between creative experimentation and honest documentation.

Can't recommend Sam enough. Not only is his work some of the best I've seen and is well known around the world, but he is also just super chill to work with. He lets videographers do their thing and is very easy going with the couples and vendors he works with.

Kelton was wonderful to work with from start to finish. He stuck with us even when we had to postpone our wedding for two years due to the pandemic, so we really appreciated his commitment to working with us. Kelton has a great system for figuring out your taste, priorities, and run of show. He set up very quickly at our venue, which was key given we were running on a tight schedule, and he managed to produce nice sound in a very cavernous space (no idea how!). He kept us running on time and made all transitions seamless. His music perfectly matched the vibe we wanted, starting with a relaxed cocktail hour and dinner, and gradually increasing the tempo into a full-scale dance party as the night went on. And our friends and family had an absolute blast! He had everyone from 20 somethings to family in their 60s and 70s dancing until the very end! We got so many positive messages the next day, including one person who described our DJ as being "on fleek."

We had a great feeling about Andrea from the time we first met over Zoom, and our instincts were absolutely correct. She is so warm, in control, and knowledgeable -- our experience planning our wedding could not have been smoother or more pleasant. We gave her our budget number, and she immediately reassured us that she could deliver the wedding of our dreams... and she did. The network of vendors she connected us with were all fantastic, and her calm demeanor kept us at ease and was also a huge help in soothing our parents' anxiety throughout the process. We are elated that we had the chance to work with and get to know her. Andrea is absolutely fantastic and we were trying to make a newly engaged cousin hire her during our own wedding! She was just that good.
