What is Tudor Place Historic House & Garden?

Tudor place is "a model of Federal-period architecture in the nation’s capital" that has "radiated serenity and elegance for over two centuries." It's located in Georgetown, Washington, DC and is now a museum that allows private rentals for events and weddings. You can read more about the spaces available below.

East Lawn: "Decorated with limestone pedestals, lined with seasonal plantings, fruit trees and saucer magnolias, the East Lawn provides elegance for your outdoor rental.

Dower House: "The 1867 Dower House exudes quintessential Victorian charm and features intimate entertainment rooms plus an adjoining side garden for cocktails and quiet conversations. Follow your ceremony with cocktails in the garden!"
