Venue and on-site catering

Miha Sleigel made this experience seamless. She is a professional with a personal touch. Through the planning process, willing to answer emails immediately (we had 3 people in 3 different time zones) to the 'day of' coordination. She offered direction and guidance when needed. To first looks, no looks, maximizing time at the venue, etc, the best. We were told that the food was the best 'wedding food' of any wedding and the hands down the best wedding. Thank you to Miha and all of her staff. You made it easy!

Perfect Wedding Day

We found the Hilton Garden Inn for my daughters wedding a little over a year before her wedding. We knew we wanted it at the Beach and that was where we started.

Little did we know that we had chosen the absolute perfect place.

Although it was a bit chilly and windy the day of the wedding, we had a beautiful ceremony on the beach followed by the most incredible night in the ballroom.

Miha was absolutely wonderful. She responded very quickly from the very beginning of our contract. Not like some places you had to send multiple messages to in order to get your answer. Although I had not met her face to face before the rehearsal, when I did meet her I felt as if I was meeting a dear friend.

The venue was perfect for our group of 151 people. The food was wonderful! Highly recommend the beef.

We had some over 21 that do not drink for various reasons and Miha worked with us to make sure that we did not pay for alcohol that was not consumed, and the venue did not give away alcohol that was not paid for.

I wish we had another daughter to do a wedding for at Hilton Garden Inn

If you are considering an event here, do not wait another second. Book it!

Wonderful in Every Way!

I cannot say enough good about The Pier House!

Our daughter and son-in-law had the most beautiful wedding at The Pier House!

Over the course of the year, Miha was great to work with!

I had no idea that she even worked on the day of the wedding ... serving as mistress of ceremonies and getting everyone down the aisle, as well as ensuring that all guests were served during the reception!

The Pier House is a beautiful, one-of-a-kind venue, and I am so happy that our daughter and son-in-law chose The Pier House for their wedding.

The weather was also amazing, which made the day even better!

The ceremony on the beach, with Tony, from I DO OBX ... the reception inside The Pier House ... the delicious food ... the amazing DJ, Paris Winfield, the beautiful cake, made by Lisa, of South Room Cakes, all of our closest family and friends ... our daughter and son-in-law's wedding day was ABSOLUTELY MAGICAL!

The Hilton Garden is your one stop shopping for amazingly modern accommodations, service and a very unique venue, on the pier and beach for your wedding. The staff is beyond amazingly helpful and professional. It's all good at the Hilton Garden Inn!

Brooke Mayo Photography Brooke Mayo Photography Wedding Photographers

There aren't many places you can say "I Do" and dance the night away over the ocean but you can at KHP!!! You have the beach, pier and a gorgeous indoor option inside the pier house if it's needed. The staff is wonderful and makes sure every little detail is taken care of. It's a photographers dream to shoot here!!

There are certain venues on the Outer Banks considered Diamonds. The Hilton Garden Inn is for sure one of those top 5 diamonds found on these barrier islands. The vintage Pier House is so cool and a perfect place to make a memory that will stand for all time. I've had the honor of performing many weddings along with the wonderful Hilton Garden Inn staff like Miha, and enjoyed every minute of it. First class from start to finish.
