Our wedding took place on 09/30/2022. We had the pleasure of working with Tammy, Peter, and Miguel. We were pleased with the space in the Grand Ballroom and it proved to be perfect... for our 213 guests. During the initial planning I was worried as the event coordinator we were working with left her position at Chevy Chase, however; Tammy took over and it was as though we had worked with her since day one. She was very knowledgeable about the space, food tasting, and decorating options (ex: napkin colors, hanging bulbs, ceremony decor). Tammy really took her time going over the timeline for our Big Day and ensured we were all on the same page. Choosing Chevy Chase is an all-in-one decision. You get a huge bridal suite that is wonderful for pictures. We rented the suite for the whole day and were given wraps, chips, sliders, and mimosas to enjoy while we got ready. You get a ceremony space that is BEAUTIFUL, ours was the patio outside of the Grand Ballroom, the pergola was perfect for pictures, and the sunset was everything. The space for the reception is very big in the Grand Ballroom. Our guests were able to enjoy the Abbey where we had cocktail hour and our photo booth, which was away from the dance floor and bar. The food tasting was true to what we tasted then and the night of the wedding. The tasting was a fun outing for us as a couple and our parents. You and your guests will enjoy delicious food, a bar package of your choice, late night snack, and even have the hassle of picking out a cake vendor taken care of. They will also send out a floor plan which was very helpful in planning where we wanted certain guests and even certain centerpieces. The bartenders were amazing and able to keep up with all of our guests. Peter and Miguel were my go-to guys if we needed anything and were extremely kind. They were even able to accommodate a last-minute switch with our head table.
On a day where chaos is bound to happen, Chevy Chase as a venue was able to provide us with peace of mind that our day would go smoothly and they delivered on that. It was the best choice we made to have our wedding there and we had an unforgettable night.
