Travis Wright, a proud veteran, together with his wife, Tig, has brought new life to a historical gem. They’ve transformed Pleasant Hill, a home on the Register of National Historic Places, into an exclusive wedding venue designed to host luxury celebrations. Located just 40 minutes from the heart of Washington D.C., this is the ideal location for couples seeking a unique venue where history and modern elegance unite.
Originally purchased in 2022 as a private home, the Wrights soon discovered the potential this property held and knew it deserved to be shared with others. Nestled in the bucolic heart of Southern Maryland, Pleasant Hill provides an exquisite backdrop with its meticulously preserved historic architecture, formal garden space, and expansive lawns.
The Wrights crafted Pleasant Hill with one goal in mind: to provide a venue where couples can tell their unique love story against an extraordinary backdrop. Their vision echoes the wedding trends cited by Martha Stewart Weddings, which highlight the growing preference for personalization and storytelling in contemporary wedding plans. Couples working with Pleasant Hill are provided a ‘Storyboard’, a unique site map designed to help them tailor their day to their unique love story.
To achieve their vision, Travis and Tig collaborated with a team of experienced local experts, including Amanda Elizabeth Interiors, McHale Landscape Design, and Advanced Architectural Concepts. Each detail within the property is intentional, aiming to pay homage to the home’s history and create an enchanting atmosphere. For instance, the main parlor houses a pair of porcelain swans on the mantelpiece. Swans mate for life and these pieces symbolize the lifelong love that Pleasant Hill wishes for every couple that passes through its doors.
While destination weddings remain popular, wedding planning site The Knot has noted a rising interest in “beautiful private estates on American soil.” Conveniently situated just 40 minutes from the White House, Pleasant Hill offers both seclusion and accessibility, with numerous local amenities and entertainment options available for guests.
Travis’s military background has ensured precision and attention to detail in all aspects of Pleasant Hill’s restoration. This ensures the venue meets the expectations of even the most discerning couples, combining rich history with modern elegance.
Pleasant Hill is ready to start a new chapter in its long history by creating unforgettable moments for couples and their loved ones. With renovations now complete, Travis and Tig Wright invite engaged couples with a discerning eye for luxury and a love for history to consider Pleasant Hill for their upcoming nuptials.
