Couples and Industry Insiders Fall in Love With Weddings at the Renaissance Arlington Capital View Hotel

ARLINGTON, VA--(Marketwired - Mar 5, 2015) - Weddings are all about preparation, from playlists to centerpieces. That being said, venue selection can make all the difference between a bump in the road and a full-scale disaster. Amelia West learned this first-hand when she booked her wedding at the Renaissance Arlington Capital View Hotel -- The manner in which the hotel responded to her situation is just one example of why it's being heralded as a top choice among wedding venues in downtown Arlington, Virginia.

"Our wedding could not have been a better experience," recalls Ms. West. "Our event planner was Laura, and she was indispensable in tailoring and altering the menu to be gluten-free. She was on top of every detail from beginning to end, small to large. On the day of my wedding, the woman who was supposed to do my makeup backed out at the last minute, and when Laura found out that I did not have a backup plan, she brought in another event planner who does makeup in her free time to help apply mine. It was an incredible gesture that I will never forget."

Ms. West's experience speaks to the sort of service wedding parties experience at this beautifully designed, LEED Gold-certified hotel. Unique among hotels in Arlington, Virginia, this property has been ranked as one of the best in the country for service.

The hotel's amenities are just as impressive. The property boasts all the advantages of 17,307 square feet of flexible event space but with the soul -- and attention to detail -- of a boutique hotel. As a result, couples can book the Grand Ballroom to seat up to 900 guests, for example, while six additional rooms and an inviting patio ideally accommodate smaller galas, cocktail receptions and rehearsal dinners. Lighting, whether it's courtesy of the contemporary fixtures or the sunlight streaming through the glass perimeter walls, creates a sense of atmosphere. Customization defines every event with options available for catering and décor to suit cultural, traditional and avant-garde celebrations alike.

With service and style in abundance, it's no wonder the property has been named a recommended vendor by Washingtonian Bride & Groom for 2015. This industry authority hand-selected the property among Arlington, Virginia hotels precisely because of its impeccable service and fresh, modern style; this combination ensures every couple can enjoy their own version of happily ever after.
