Wedding Details

The Wedding Website of Marrisa Rose and Grant Ducker
The Josephine Butler Parks Center is a historic 1927 Renaissance Revival mansion perched above Meridian Hill Park, and it has long been a hub for Washington, D.C.’s cultural and civic life. Originally built as a grand diplomatic residence, the building later became home to community organizations dedicated to protecting public spaces, advancing environmental justice, and championing D.C. statehood. We chose it as our wedding venue because it reflects the soul of D.C.: rich in history, grounded in community, and deeply connected to the fight for full representation for the District. We are so excited to celebrate with you all! If you have any questions, please visit the FAQ tab for additional information.
