Weddings, Rentals, and B&B

We make space for everyone.

Many wonderful and memorable events have taken place in our historic, welcoming church.

We have a variety of spaces available to accommodate many different types of events, such as workshops, meetings, celebrations, weddings, concerts, receptions, and intimate recitals. We rent spaces to external organizations only if there is a social justice or community-building component to the event, and if the event/organization is in line with the church’s mission and values.

And if you’re visiting from out of town, consider staying with one of our congregants through our B&B program.

Wedding at All Souls

Weddings

Couples of all religious backgrounds and orientations are warmly welcomed at All Souls, where the first publicized service of same-sex union in DC history was held. A wedding ceremony at All Souls must satisfy the requirements of the District of Columbia. 

You needn’t be a member of All Souls to marry here, but special rates are available to couples who have been members for at least one year before their wedding. Our ministry staff is generally only available to officiate services and ceremonies for church members or congregants who have attended the church long enough for the minister(s) to be familiar with them.

Every American should visit our nation’s capital, not only because it’s the seat of government, but because it’s also a rich cultural center, site of intellectual exchange, home to a global community, and a city of sublime beauty.

For reasonable rates, members of All Souls Church Unitarian offer lodging and breakfast in their homes for short-term stays (2-7 days) and all proceeds benefit the church. We offer a variety of accommodations, all of them located within convenient reach of DC’s sights.

Our facility and campus is 100% drug and tobacco free.
