Best Wedding with the best venue

Jenna and the Hilton Garden Raleigh\Cary team were an absolute delight to work with for a clients wedding. She was attentive, engaged, and offered solutions at every turn of the process. We needed to adjust the guest count after our reception space fell through and Jenna adjusted with ease making a situation that would have been easily stressful seamless to handle. Not only was she insightful and easy to work with but she was available for meetings when needed and worked with our schedule to meet regularly as the date became closer. If you are looking for a venue with a great team to work with at every part of your wedding journey, look no further: this is the team.

Indian Wedding - 4 Events @ Hilton Garden of Cary

All I can say is this review does not do the venue and entire team any justice! My family and I looked into many venues in the area, but mostly hotels, so it would be convenient for out of town guests. Many of the hotels in the area are very pricey and do not budge on certain details. Right off the bat, the conversation with Claire at Hilton Garden was much easier and relaxed. She clearly walked us though pricing, details, and questions for my parents and me. After contracting, she let us know we'd be working with Devon. She made sure to transfer any knowledge over to Devon and give him some background on traditional Indian weddings so he was prepped with all the information he needed. He did not make any assumptions and asked all the right questions. Once we had a wedding planner, he worked with her directly and only pulled me in when needed. He was always a step ahead in coordinating details, logistics or asking questions.
Devon always went the extra mile. Leading up to the wedding, he would spend ample time taking care of each question or request coming from me and my planner. During the wedding, he was always there whether it was checking in our guests, tending to the vendors, or ensuring everything was going smoothly behind the scenes. He even stayed at the hotel overnight the whole wknd since we had so many back to back events that required overnight work from our vendors. He even hand delivered flowers for my hair to me at 5 am and delivered a special gift to my husband and I after our reception. The staff was always waiting on deck to support the "flips" between events so that there were no delays or hiccups. Devon would offer any and every option to us when it came to coordinating things in between events or during events (like ensuring enough chairs for guests to be seated but having additional seating where guests would later dine). I know other venues are typically not so forthcoming in trying to help their clients. I truly could not have asked for a better team and venue for my wedding! I highly recommend the Hilton Garden Inn of Cary for any event you are having!

Chris Harburg Photography Chris Harburg Photography Wedding Photographers

As a wedding photographer, I've had the opportunity to work in many wedding venues in Raleigh and the Hilton Garden Inn is one of my absolute favorites! The staff is fabulous to work with, professional and extremely helpful. The quality of food and service during the wedding is fantastic, I've never seen them fall behind or keep guests waiting and believe me, it does happen! I've been quite surprised by some venues even running out of food! But the Hilton Garden Inn is a well oiled machine, any wedding couple would be in great hands knowing their perfect day will go off without a hitch.
