Where to Lay Your Head

We have reserved a block of rooms at the Sheraton Pentagon City Hotel (formerly Sheraton National) where the reception is being held. This is also the closest hotel to the church next to Ft. Myer base. If you are in town for a long weekend you may want to stay somewhere closer to the action of DC via a Metro stop on the Orange/Blue lines.

Dining and Dancing




I love the saying "eat, drink, be married"...so that's what we'll be doing at the Sheraton Pentagon City Hotel (formerly Sheraton National) next July. Our reception will take place on the top floor in the Galaxy Ballroom. This was our top choice during the site visits. We're looking forward to a great party!

Save The Date



Phew! The long wait for the church is over. We finally got a confirmation email that the church is available Saturday, July 14, 2012 at 2:30pm for our catholic wedding ceremony. For anyone looking to have a catholic wedding in a military church be prepared for a lot of paperwork and hoop jumping.

The church will undergo renovations in October 2011 but I'm faithful they'll be done by July 2012.

Now all the planning can begin!
