About this vendor

The Villa is a banquet hall for couples’ weddings in the Washington, D.C. area. This elegantly modern ballroom is built in a Mediterranean style, with classic or tented ballroom spaces. Couples will find this wedding venue in Maryland, 20 minutes from the United States National Arboretum.

Facilities and Capacity
This venue welcomes up to 300 guests for a couple’s big day. Traditional ballrooms feature high ceilings, unique up-lighting opportunities and a neutral color scheme. This allows couples to make the day uniquely theirs through lighting, decor and other design elements. A tented outdoor ballroom in the gardens is the perfect airy and elegant event space for a couple’s reception. With tiled floor underfoot, this up-scale tent offers the perfect blank slate for a couple’s personal style and flair. The tent is tall, with windows of plastic for plenty of natural light without sacrificing the safety from potentially inclement weather. Couples can also choose to use the tented ballroom for their ceremony and the indoor ballroom, with a chandelier of dripping crystals, for their reception.
