We looked at a lot of venues between MD, DC, and VA and each one had a lot but not everything. The vineyard/barn was nice but no audio (we didn't hire a DJ - we made a playlist). T...
his other place was great but we'd have to bring in more lighting or literally the place didn't have enough bathrooms. The Atlas has it all. Professional lighting and sound is everything. It really does make the wedding. How many times have YOU been to a wedding and you can't hear the vows!? We wore wireless mics and everyone hung on every word. We had handheld mics that were effortlessly passed around during the toasts. That was awesome. Then, you have theater staff there to keep the pace going and change the lighting as the moments shift.
We had cocktail hour in the Great Hall and made a grand entrance at the top of the steps. We took photos on the staircase during cocktail hour and got to enjoy the time with everyone. We only snuck out for photos under the marquee for 10 minutes at the very end of cocktail hour. Then, we all entered the Sprenger Theater together for the ceremony and reception.
We had long tables on each side of the black box with a dance floor in the center. We chose to start on opposite sides of the dance floor and met each other in the middle for our vows. It was flawless.
Everything worked. We didn't do a ton of flowers - instead, we decorated with light and rented a hazer machine! It was seriously magical.
If you're a modern bride this is the historic venue for you.
Our original date got rescheduled a few times, but the Atlas Staff accommodated us nicely.
Working with Jeanette Lazusky was a real joy! She not only assisted with the facility...
rental, she actually helped us immensely in the planning and the execution of the evening. She and her team were invaluable to our planning team. The entire Sprenger Tech team, including Rho executed our event with what seemed like effortlessness.
We are forever thankful to the Atlas Staff for your support.
