Venue Spotlight: Ronald Reagan Building Weddings

Ronald Reagan Building ceremony in Pavilion Room

The Ronald Reagan Building is located at 1300 Pennsylvania Avenue, a prime location for a true DC wedding feel. In addition to breaktaking views, Ronald Reagan Building weddings offer all the essentials you need for a wedding. From the Pavilion Room to the Horizon Ballroom, the intimate Rotunda or the grand Atrium, in a city full of historic sites, it’s a contemporary architectural gem and a modern vantage point from which to stage a wedding. It is truly a blank slate but also one where clean lines rule the day.

Woodrow Wilson Plaza

The area in and around the Reagan Building provides an excellent backdrop for first looks and wedding party photos. It’s also a stone’s throw for portraits with a monument view. If outdoor is your ceremony style, Woodrow Wilson Plaza is a tremendous space from which to center a ceremony. You can easily use one of the dramatic silver sculptures as a focal point or introduce a complete backdrop like a boxwood wall.

Rotunda and Horizon Ballroom

While most people think of the Ronald Reagan Building as a venue for large events, the most intimate of spaces are the Horizon Ballroom and the Rotunda. We’ve staged many a ceremony and intimate reception in these spaces.

Pavilion Room

The most popular of the wedding spaces at the Reagan Building is the Pavilion Room, one we’ve often used for both ceremony and reception. One thing we love for this space is the opportunity to create a statement piece, as it’s the first thing people see as they disembark the elevator. With ceremony and reception in the same space, it’s also a perfect opportunity to repurpose tall designs along an aisle for a doubly dramatic feel.

Atrium

For a larger guest count, we love the Atrium at the Ronald Reagan Building. It is known for its minimalist design, a towering glass ceiling, a grand staircase, and plenty of natural light. It’s a fabulous blank canvas for any large wedding, and will allow for you to customize your look and design. That said, this is one of the spaces where tall elements – or something suspended – are crucial for helping to fill the space.

We adore weddings at the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center! It’s fabulous to have such a versatile and modern venue in Washington, DC.

Pastels are having a moment, but the *real* magic is in the pairing. For Clara & John’s wedding at DAR, soft, romantic blooms were styled alongside timeless Chinoiserie details, creating a look that was equal parts elegant and unexpected.
Layering florals with statement vessels and pattern play brings depth to your tablescape and keeps your design feeling editorial and intentional from start to finish.

Black taper candles, white pumpkins, rust-toned bunny tails, and fall foliages were just a few of the stellar details that made Ashley & Brett’s wedding at the Hotel Monaco a total VIBE! 🍂

Framing a space can be just as impactful as filling it.

At Hotel Monaco, drama lives in the details. Soaring columns, bold architecture, quirky design. For Hannah & Mike’s wedding, we wrapped lush smilax around the columns to emphasize the room’s grandeur, and suspended the chuppah canopy between them. Designed in soft lavender and honey tones, the floral palette added warmth and softness to the ballroom’s rich interiors. Honey-hued rope taper candles added a textural glow around the base of each design.

Sometimes, it’s about how you place the flowers, not just which ones you choose.
