Top 12 Wedding Venues in Arlington Virginia

So you just got engaged and everyone is already asking when you’re getting married? This sounds familiar. It took about 24 hours after Gerald proposed to me before people started asking me about the actual wedding date. Before I could set a date, I had to find a venue. Then I had to select a date based on the availability of that venue. There were still about 1,000 things that I had to check off a list before my actual wedding day, but this was the first step. We probably visited at least a dozen different places before we finally set on a place that was perfect for us 🙂 So I’ve put together a list of 12 venues in Arlington and Alexandria for you that I think would make a good list to check out.
