Weddings

Congratulations on your engagement! We are honored that you are interested in having your wedding at New York Avenue Presbyterian Church. As we continue a long history of hosting weddings, we are committed to making yours a joyful and memorable occasion. 

New York Avenue is a beautiful, historic, centrally located venue in downtown DC, two blocks east of the White House. Many reception venues and hotels are located within walking distance of the church. Members and non-members of NYAPC are welcome to apply to use the sanctuary or other facilities for a wedding.

Our Sanctuary perfectly blends history, tradition, and contemporary aesthetics, seating approximately 700 on the lower level, plus balcony seating. The Lincoln Chapel, with Tiffany windows, seats 100. Reception rooms of various sizes are also available. Arrangements for using the building must be made well before the wedding and rehearsal.
