The Hotel John Marshall opened in the late 1920s and has since welcomed icons such as Elizabeth Taylor and Elvis Presley as well as former Presidents like Nixon, Ford, and Carter. While the building has undergone renovations over the years, it remains a historically significant landmark in Richmond. The ballrooms of the hotel have been the top choice for memorable weddings for over forty years.

According to Danny Begley at The Hotel John Marshall, the ballrooms have seen an uptick in requests for LGBTQIA+ weddings in recent years. Begley, who works as the company controller and is himself a member of the gay community, can’t help but get excited when he comes across a same-sex couple’s wedding request. It is important to everyone at The John Marshall that all couples feel welcome and safe when planning one of the most important days of their lives. With members of the LGBTQIA+ community on staff, Begley is especially confident that these inquiries are in the right hands. Their staff is known to work, interact, and respect one another like family and to pass that same level of compassion and respect to their clients. With the dedication the John Marshall staff show to their craft, couples can expect a gold-standard experience for their wedding.

Alongside The Jefferson, The Hotel John Marshall is the only other hotel in Richmond with such elaborately detailed Historic Grand Ballrooms and a decades-long history in Richmond. The art deco and classical mix of the building’s architecture make an impression long before stepping foot in the ballrooms, which themselves are sure to dazzle wedding guests. Thanks to the gorgeous chandeliers, floor-to-ceiling windows, and hand-crafted molding, the ballrooms are perfect for anyone looking for a romantic atmosphere for their wedding. As a fun and unique addition, the property is crowned with its historic rooftop sign that any wedding photographer would gravitate toward. This venue is sure to catch anyone’s eye. “Bottom line…I would not hesitate to refer any of my LGBTQ friends here for ANY type of event. Everyone is served graciously at The John Marshall” Begley confirms.
