10 DC Small Wedding and Elopement Venues

DC War Memorial on The National Mall

The first location that comes to mind when thinking of DC small wedding venues is the DC War Memorial on the National Mall. This is an amazing location for couples who are interested in classic DC wedding photos. The DC War Memorial also has room for seating for a handful of guests! After the ceremony, you can walk around the rest of the National Mall and have wedding portraits taken at the Lincoln Memorial or the Reflecting Pool.

If you want to have an elopement at the DC War Memorial you will need to apply for a special use permit with the National Park Service. The permit can cost anywhere between $50-$250 depending on the number of guests, plus a $90 application fee. The permit includes two hours of ceremony time, which is great for portraits after the ceremony.

I have used Casey for both my graduation photos and very beautiful photos with my partner. On both occasions, Casey was both an excellent listener in allowing us to take shots that we liked but also gave fantastic direction. As a darker skinned woman, I am always concerned with lighting in photos and Casey not only listened to me but ensured that the photos would be lit in a flattering way. In regards to the pictures themselves, they are stunning. Each and every photo can be sent to family and friends. I hope to use Casey in the future for other occasions. If you are looking for a photographer in the DMV area, please look no further!

Casey Marie took photos for our engagement session and a small ceremony. Casey is absolutely fantastic!! She was able to capture us candidly and make us feel comfortable throughout the entire process. We could not have been happier with how the photos turned out, her editing style is elegant and unique. She is also very professional, was on time the day of the session and provided the photos in the timeframe we were expecting. We recommend her 100%!

Casey, as a photographer was absolutely amazing! She was on-time, professional, and really knew how to capture that "kodak" moment. I would recommend Casey to all my friends, family, members, and colleagues who are looking for some professional photos that won't break the bank. I look forward to shooting my maternity pictures and baby pictures in the future.
