About this venue

Above ALX Community is a premier rooftop venue in the heart of Old Town Alexandria, Virginia, just two blocks off of charming King Street. From the wide wraparound Terrace, you and your guests will enjoy panoramic views of historic Old Town, the Potomac River, and the sights of DC in the distance. The Terrace features a patio covered by a pergola, which can accommodate an intimate seated ceremony or reception. Moving indoors to the Parlor you’ll find sleek marble floors, modern gold finishes, and plush contemporary furniture, perfect for cocktail hour. The Parlor features high ceilings, an outfitted bar, a catering kitchen, elevators, and floor-to-ceiling windows with two access points to the Terrace. Just off the Parlor is the George Washington room, which has a full wall of windows that opens onto the patio, creating a seamless indoor/outdoor feel. This room can be used for a seated indoor ceremony, reception, and/or dancing, and is outfitted with state-of-the-art AV equipment.

    Best venue ever!

    Beautiful venue. It didn't need much decoration because it is really stunning, and cheaper than most venues that were either smaller, or way to expensive and not even that pretty. Excellent view, excellent attention! love it!

    Stunning Venue & Fantastic Coordinator!

    Above ALX Community was the PERFECT wedding venue! The indoor/outdoor rooftop space offered breathtaking 360 views of the Potomac and Old Town Alexandria, creating a beautiful and unique setting. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about the amazing atmosphere and scenic backdrop. Christopher, our venue coordinator, was exceptional. He went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly, from setup to last-minute adjustments, and made us feel completely at ease. His attention to detail and dedication truly made our day stress-free and memorable. If you’re looking for a stunning venue with top-notch service, we highly recommend Above ALX Community and Christopher!
