Chefs — and a Party — for Marriage Equality


A crowd ready to party came together at the Ritz-Carlton on 22nd Street, NW, Sept. 23 to join the Human Rights Campaign and David Hagedorn in support of marriage equality, as all enjoyed signature bar selections and wonderful samplings from the region’s very best chefs that included Michel Richard, Robert Wiedmaier and Patrick O’Connell. Hagedorn and his partner Michael Widomski tied the knot before Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg last year. Guests were encouraged to hear Gov. Terry McAuliffe express his confidence that same-sex couples will soon be able to marry in the Commonwealth of Virginia.
