The United States National Arboretum is the Planner’s Choice for Wedding Venue

It’s Memorial Day Weekend, the unofficial start to wedding season! We know that planning a wedding can be exhilarating and booking a venue can be simple if couples know where to look. Well, look no further because the Unique Venues network of planners voted that The United States National Arboretum in Washington, D.C. is the venue to book for weddings.

This 446-acre U.S. Department of Agriculture research facility also offers the largest outdoor event space for private events in the U.S. nation’s capital. It’s home to popular collections like the Bonsai Museum, the National Grove of State Trees, and the National Herb Garden, too. This living museum is a popular pick for couples and wedding planners looking for a unique outdoor space. Because this facility is a federal property, a permit is required to tie the knot here, but not to worry – securing a permit is easy. The wedding planning staff through the Arboretum partner, MTG Hospitality, makes it their mission to help execute wedding details meticulously and will help every step of the way.

Couples love the options available at this outdoor venue, but one area on the property in particular gets a lot of attention. The National Columns display is a picturesque backdrop for any wedding, and it is a popular choice for couples and wedding photographers alike. The National Columns provide a touch of elegance and drama to any vow exchange. And because there are 446 acres of land, the staff at MTG Hospitality can recommend alternative backdrops to complement any wedding theme. From lush flowering gardens to expansive grounds – any backdrop to say, ‘I do’ in front of is a stunner.

Washington’s Secret Garden awaits to book special occasions or weddings on this impressive and sprawling arboretum. Everyone will be enchanted and delighted from the moment they step foot on this gorgeous property.

Congratulations to this Planner’s Choice venue!
