Michelle Lee’s Summary:
While I was in DC last week with my East Coast Entertainment agent, Jenny Langer (aka Black Betty), we had the chance to tour this unique venue. If you like theatre, you’ll LOVE Woolly Mammoth! Not only does the theatre seating make it the perfect place to hold your ceremony, but you can also use the current show’s stage set up as your backdrop! Your guests can have front row seats to your box office wedding!
The theatre’s tall ceilings, steel beams, and award winning architecture also make it the perfect spot for an industrial themed wedding. If you have a specific concept in mind, the clean slate interior welcomes just about any design idea.
Why else do we love Woolly? It’s located in the nation’s capital, Washington, DC. With tons of fabulous restaurants, shops, and museums, there’s endless things for you and your guests to enjoy!
We give a standing ovation to Woolly Mammoth for it’s unique event space! If you’re looking for something different for your wedding, you may want to check out Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company in DC!
