Located in the heart of Georgetown, Washington D.C., Dumbarton House stands as an elegant and historically rich setting for couples seeking a timeless and sophisticated wedding venue. Its charming ambiance and historical significance make it a coveted choice for those looking to celebrate their special day in a setting that seamlessly blends tradition with modern-day romance.
Dumbarton House features beautiful architecture, gardens, and multiple spaces for your ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. It is the perfect venue for hosting a chic D.C. wedding.
Dumbarton House offers various spaces to accommodate different aspects of the wedding celebration. The Belle Vue Room provides a picturesque setting for intimate ceremonies and receptions, while the North Garden can host larger outdoor ceremonies. The flexibility of these spaces allows couples to curate their wedding experience to match their preferences.
The lower courtyard may be tented, offering a wonderful rain backup plan for hosting your ceremony. For Ryan and Abhi’s wedding, the tented lower courtyard served as the ceremony space. The clear tent is perfect in the fall, allowing plenty of natural light to fill the space.
The venue also provides amenities such as catering spaces, bridal suites, and opportunities for stunning wedding photography against the backdrop of the historic house and gardens.
Between the Belle Vue Room and the tented courtyard, the venue can accommodate up to 150 guests at round tables, as well as a band/d.j. and dance floor.
