All Souls Church, Unitarian is a historic 200 year young church that has played a vital role in Washington, DC, and the nation as a whole. Located at the intersection of 16th and Harvard Streets, the church straddles the Mt. Pleasant, Columbia Heights, and Adams Morgan neighborhoods. Founding members included slaves, free African Americans, immigrants, laborers, merchants and distinguished local and national leaders—each involved in key issues facing the country—abolition, education, poverty, civil rights, peace, and economic justice. The building is the third location of a church founded in 1821 as the First Unitarian Church of Washington by American visionaries—William Ellery Channing, founder of American Unitarianism; and in the DC area, President John Quincy Adams, Vice President John C. Calhoun, and Charles Bulfinch – who designed not only the original church but the U.S. Capitol. Today, All Souls Unitarian Church remains a leader of liberal reform, social justice, and community outreach. Couples of all religious backgrounds and orientations are warmly welcomed at All Souls Church, where in 2009, Mayor Adrian Fenty signed DC’s Marriage Equality Act into law in the All Souls sanctuary. We understand that this is a special day for you, one of the most important in your life, and we’re committed to ensuring that your ceremony and reception is as meaningful and smoothly realized as it is beautiful.
