Getting here
Wedding Venue
Lansdowne Resort
44050 Woodridge Pkwy
Leesburg, VA 20176
Traveling by plane
We recommend flying into Washington Dulles International Airport (airport code IAD), as it’s the closest to the venue and has less traffic congestion. However, Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (airport code DCA) is another option.
Driving to the venue yourself?
Whether you’re staying for the day, or overnight, there is plenty of parking at the resort. There is no charge for self-parking, and if you want to valet, it’s $25/night.

U.S. National Arboretum – Expansive botanical gardens and historic columns offering scenic views, quiet trails, and a peaceful escape within the city.
Dumbarton Oaks – Elegant terraced gardens and historic architecture in Georgetown, with a variety of blossoms during spring. You can enjoy Georgetown neighborhoods, shopping and restaurants after.
Jefferson Memorial – It’s tucked away from the other monuments but is stunning with waterfront views, especially beautiful at sunset or during cherry blossom season. A lot quieter than other DC monuments as well. The tidal basin walk to the memorial is special.
Gravelly Point – A unique riverside park where you can picnic while watching planes fly dramatically overhead near Reagan Airport.
Alexandria Waterfront – A charming historic district with cobblestone streets, boutique shops, and scenic river views just minutes from DC.
