Each week, we have been sharing some of our favorite places for wedding in Washington, DC to help you narrow down your search. This week we take you to District Winery wedding venue. Virginia boasts a number of picturesque wineries, but did you know? You can have that winery aesthetic right here in Washington, DC.
About
Located at 385 Water Street, SE in the Navy Yard neighborhood, District Winery is the first commercial winery in Washington, DC. The sophisticated, waterfront wedding venue features floor to ceiling windows, an outdoor terrace and a stunning river view. And ooh la la, is the view to die for!
Capacity: up to 200 guests
Pro Tips:
We love to see lots of greenery in the space to complement the rustic, winery vibe. Go a little wild with a lush ceiling treatment of smilax or suspended candles. Suspended anything really! It’s a space with a wealth of hanging points making it easy to hang from.
Decorate the stairway entry in a way that really wows guests as they arrive. You can choose between the entrance staircase on the first level or concentrate your efforts on the second flight from mezzanine to third floor. The long tables included in the venue’s family style service feature stunning table stops. It looks fabulous with garland or lots of candles, but the tables are ultimately quite narrow, making the idea of investing your decor in order to invest in augmenting the venue itself more of a unique opportunity than at many other venues.
