The Willard Intercontinental has been an iconic part of the Washington, DC landscape for more than 200 years.  The famed hotel has often been referred to as the “Residence of Presidents”.

The inviting blend of contemporary luxury, timeless charm and impeccable service make this a truly unique venue that can accommodate any vision, from cozy and intimate to grand and luxe.

THE CRYSTAL ROOM

A favorite ceremony transformation with a lit runway/aisle!

The Ballroom is so ornate, even simple decor with some cherry blossom branches looks beautiful…

A favorite rose gold ceremony we did for our clients Lyndsay & Jake!

GRAND BALLROOM

Lyndsay & Jake’s rose gold reception – it was so magical!

The ballroom can take on a variety of different looks – lighting is a huge factor…

THE WILLARD ROOM

If crystal chandeliers and ornate rooms aren’t your thing – the third room option gives a more traditional, masculine and cozy feel….think Hogwarts or British estate vibes!
