Omni Shoreham

The hotel’s storied architecture comes to life through its collection of distinctive ballrooms, each offering a unique atmosphere. The Ambassador and Diplomat Ballrooms echo the refined elegance of the White House East Room, while the Blue Room carries a touch of Hollywood glamour as the place where JFK and Jackie first met.

The Palladian Ballroom embraces classical symmetry with stately columns and floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Gazebo Lawn, while the Art Deco Empire Ballroom dazzles with crystal chandeliers, a dramatic stage, and a softly lit garden patio. Outdoors, the Gazebo Lawn provides a serene ceremony setting framed by mature trees, seasonal blooms, and birdsong—one of the city’s most picturesque backdrops.

With its blend of historic prestige, versatile spaces, and meticulous service, Omni Shoreham Hotel stands among Washington, DC’s premier wedding destinations. It’s a place where timeless elegance, iconic design, and meaningful moments come together to create celebrations that linger long after the last dance.
