Courtyard Gaithersburg Washingtonian Center

About this venue

The lakefront Courtyard Gaithersburg Washingtonian Center is located in the heart of rio: a 760,000 sq. ft. waterfront center with restaurants, shops, plus a movie theater, paddle boats, and a trail. The hotel is conveniently located right off of the ICC MD 200 and I-270, which connects to other suburban cities like Bethesda and Rockville. This hotel is about a ten-minute drive to the Shady Grove Metro Station, a 30-minute drive to downtown Washington, D.C., and a forty-minute drive to the Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA). Host your wedding in our Rio Ballroom, which is made up of three salons (A, B, C), representing 2,673 square feet of event space with natural light. You're also welcome to rent our Outdoor Terrace, which overlooks the lake. We offer catering and we allow outside catering from a catering company or restaurant. On Mondays - Thursdays and Sundays, our events have to end at 10:00 PM, and on Fridays and Saturdays, our events have to end at 11:00 PM.
