Prime AV produces weddings, corporate dinners, board meetings, and receptions at The Ritz-Carlton Georgetown with our own crew and equipment, scaled to a boutique landmark where the room is the star.
Fahrenheit Ballroom dinners, Yard receptions, Chimney Stack private dinners: discreet sound, warm lighting, and screens that fit the brick.
The Ritz-Carlton Georgetown is a boutique property built inside Georgetown’s landmarked 1932 incinerator building, and its event space reflects that: about 8,800 square feet in six rooms. The Fahrenheit Ballroom is 1,755 square feet with a 20.5 foot ceiling, exposed century old brick, hardwood floors, and floor to ceiling windows over the Potomac, for 110 at dinner or 140 in theater.
This is a room for precision, not volume. We light the brick instead of fighting it, keep speakers out of the sight lines to the river, and size screens to the room so a board dinner or a 100 guest wedding feels designed rather than equipped.
The Yard is a 2,600 square foot outdoor space of three tiered gardens with exposed brick and bistro lighting, for receptions of 150. The Brickyard Room and its courtyard take 80 for cocktails, and the Chimney Stack, a 16 foot private dining room at the base of the original smokestack under a glass ceiling, seats 12.
Outdoor audio here is distributed and discreet: small speakers on the tiers, wireless microphones for toasts, and power run cleanly from the building. For the Chimney Stack we bring nothing bigger than a single speaker and a lavalier, because the room is the production.
Georgetown’s law firms, associations, and embassies use the Ritz for executive dinners, board retreats, and small briefings, and the five Executive Conference Suites and the ballroom are built for that. Ceilings outside the ballroom run 8 to 9 feet.
We bring the right size production: a crisp LED display or short throw projection, lectern and lavalier audio tuned for a room with hard surfaces, and a technician who stays in the room. Hybrid presenters join on screen with proper audio, not a laptop on a chair.
Weddings here run from 50 to about 130 guests: ceremony in The Yard or the Fahrenheit Ballroom, cocktails in the Brickyard, dinner and dancing in the ballroom. The brick, the windows, and the sunset over the river are the decor.
We provide ceremony audio, uplighting that warms the brick, pin spots for tables and the cake, a dance floor system sized for 130 people, and a slideshow screen that disappears when it is not in use. See luxury wedding production.
Nothing is fastened to the historic brick, which means every element is freestanding and every screen and light is ground supported. The property has a loading dock and a below grade garage, and the meeting spaces sit on the lower and upper lobby levels.
We advance the load in with the hotel’s event team, bring compact gear that moves through a boutique hotel without scuffing a wall, and coordinate with the on site AV staff where house systems are involved.
