The Ritz-Carlton, Pentagon City

Exceptional wedding at The Ritz Pentagon City

We had a multi-day wedding event at the Ritz-Carlton, Pentagon City, in February 2026. Picking this amazing team and venue was the greatest decision we made - the team was truly incredible. It all started with Katie Fabian, who made us the most comfortable during the venue discovery phase. She answered all of our questions with the utmost professionalism, was very attentive, and showed us that she really loves what she does. Even after we started to work with the rest of the team, she continued to check in to make sure everything was ok - she was great. Our wedding weekend was absolute bliss, and the team at the Ritz executed it perfectly. The team did everything to accommodate us, and we really appreciate it. In addition to Katie, we primarily worked with the Ritz’s special event manager, Allie Delgado, who was so thoughtful and flexible while working with us. Through the food tasting, countless planning emails, and all the coordination leading up to the weekend, the planning process felt seamless. Allie was patient, creative, and flexible as we worked through menu options to balance our budget and accommodate guest dietary restrictions. The team handled every change with care and professionalism. In the end, it's all about feeling comfortable and the attention to detail. Allie is a logistics extraordinaire - already predicting our asks and reserving for us additional storage spaces and getting ready rooms. Allie also cared for our family, who, alongside Samantha Boem, were very accommodating and assisted with the hotel room blocks, which we ended up doubling. Every guest we spoke with praised the front desk staff - this venue can clearly handle large guest events. The food was phenomenal as well - Chef Cesar is magic. Everyone was raving about the food, especially the risotto, fish tacos, mushroom ravioli, beet salad, and incredible appetizers, including the edamame potstickers, spicy tuna, bruschetta, and beggar’s purse. The late-night food and desserts passed out on the dance floor were also great. Allie, Katie, and the team at the Ritz also stood out for the unique touches. They created spot-on “his and her cocktails” (we didn’t adjust them at all from the tasting) and even designed the signage for them. There were many thoughtful gestures - from the room rates for the executive suites, to the gifts throughout the weekend that were in our room, and the biggest surprise was the layout of the bed in the honeymoon suite. If you are deciding whether to work with this team in the beautiful event spaces they provide, you should look no further. You will be in exceptional hands, and we would choose this venue and the team again in a heartbeat.
