Dirty Habit DC

series parade so we had to combat noise during our ceremony. I've visited the venue on plenty of other occasions and know thats not the norm. If I could do it over, I would have made sure to have a microphone so that guests could hear everything. I loved how our reception looked and our cocktail hour was a huge hit. Our guests are still talking about it. If you use the glass house, also be sure to have a backdrop to give yourself privacy. Emani was super accommodating and transparent the whole way through. I feel like every dime we sent was worth it and more. This place is one of DC's best kept secrets for sure.

items. They also were incredibly flexible in working with us due to the weather and helping us make sure we stayed well within our budget. The location also can't be beat. It was easily accessible for all our guests who were coming in from out of town or staying in the city. We would highly recommend Dirty Habit for future private events!

abit. The restaurant and courtyard are unlike anything we’ve seen in DC. The glass house and courtyard both had the sexy, city chic vibe we were looking for. I was also searching for a venue in which I didn’t have to spend too much time decorating (I’m a lazy bride) and this place was perfect because it’s already beautifully decorated; all I did was add some personal embellishments (flowers, signs, guestbook, photos, etc). Emani, the event coordinator, is heaven sent. Both my husband and I are convinced that our reception would not have been such a success if it wasn’t for her. She is exceptional at her job, responding to us promptly, offering suggestions that helped keep us within our budget and vision. My guests were wowed with the venue; I literally had guests stop me during the reception to tell me the venue, the food and the DJ (I’ll review him in another post) were the best they’ve ever experienced. Emani allowed us to rename some of their delicious cocktails to personalize them for our special night. The cocktails were delicious; my friends who don’t usually drink cocktails wouldn’t stop raving about them. Since I was too busy having fun, I didn’t get a chance to try the dinner but I was told by my guests that the food was superb. We opted for the meat carving station (sirloin and lamb), glass noodle station and pasta station. We had about 110 guests and there was more than enough food for all. We also did passed apps in the beginning, which I did try a few and loved (steak frites, summer roll, falafel). Oh I must mention their truffle fries are heaven on earth, and we added those to our buffet (you’re a fool if you don’t). I probably could’ve eaten my body weight in those truffle friends but I still had to fit into my dress. If you’re looking for a modern, chic venue with amazing drinks, food management please please please make an appointment with Emani, it will be the best decision you’ve ever made :)
