Lovely venue for Tuesday night swing dancing! Note that it does get very hot in the summer; it’s an older building without very strong ventilation

We checked out multiple venues in DC, but none captured the vision we had for our October 19, 2019 wedding like the Josephine Butler Parks Center.
The space is beautiful enough to not need too much decoration but simple enough to be a blank canvas if you wanted to go big. We had 120 guests and it felt both spacious and intimate.
Malina was very informative and helpful and has done the wedding rodeo enough times to have answers to every question we threw at her.
And we felt especially great about using the Center because we knew we were supporting the Washington Parks!

I’ve photographed several weddings at the PARKS CENTER. Every time, the venue is well organized, plenty of room for vendors, and the guest seem to really enjoy the multi-level space. You also won’t be able to beat the access to one of the largest (and best) parks in DC.
PLUS, the building is run by a local non-profit so a portion of the proceeds go back to doing great work here in DC.
If your thinking about having a wedding, corporate, or family event, definitely check-out the JOSEPHINE BUTLER PARKS CENTER.

Attended a couple of wedding parties here. Fairly well maintained historic home. Nice staircase in the foyer which is a good spot for photos.
There is a balcony (might hold 30)which is a nice place for cocktails in nice weather.
There was more than enough room in the dining area for the 150 or so in attendance at the last party.
There are 2 kitchens, an upstairs which is a decent size and a much smaller one on the lower level. This provides a lot of room for prep and the fridges help with the cooling of your beverages so not everything has to be chilled on ice.
Parking is a little difficult because of the location, but the same can be said for all places in that vicinity.
Overall a very quaint location for your event.

Went here for a gala. A historic venue that is perfect for a small to medium sized corporate or personal event! Two stories we’d open for us to gather in. The staircase is beautiful!
I had my wedding here in September of 2014 and it was absolutely perfect! The space is gorgeous and we knew the venue was for us the moment we saw it. We had just under 150 people and the space was perfect. Dinner was a little cramped, but other than that the space was perfect. We were lucky and had amazing weather so we are also able to make great use of the terrace. This is the perfect place for someone wanting a DC wedding at a reasonable price. The photo opps are also amazing and if you are lucky and get good weather, the park is so close and makes for great photos as well.
