Everything I wanted and more!

My experience with the Sheraton hotel was more than I ever had expectations for. The staff was so kind and we’re all willing to help. They were calm and collected during the entire process! Morgan (catering sales manager/ wedding coordinator) was the most helpful out of every one! I texted her and emailed her almost daily the few weeks leading up to the wedding and she was quick to respond and very informative. Any time I wanted something changed she would be so easy going and help me find a better way to do it. I love hotel weddings, and there are a lot of pieces that come with it, but they make the process so so so easy! From the bar staff, to the servers, to the workers at the front desk, everyone was so kind to our guests. I will recommend having a wedding at the Sheraton for the rest of my life!!

Beautiful space

Beautiful space and great staff! Everyone went above and beyond. We booked the Sheraton for my daughters wedding and everything was great. I loved that they have suites to book and you can order brunch platters for the wedding party. Soo many spaces are available at this venue.

The Sheraton was the perfect place for our wedding reception. Lauren and Maija were so helpful from the beginning to the end. They promptly responded to all emails and answered all my questions and guided me through the whole process. The food was fantastic and served beautifully. All the wait staff and bartenders were so friendly and helpful. The ballroom was beautiful and held our group well. It is in a fun and easily accessible location, with lots to do before the reception. We couldn't have been happier with our choice! Thank you again Lauren and Maija for all the help!

Lauren and Maija were absolutely fantastic, and our wedding reception was the perfect ending to a beautiful day. Everything went off without a hitch, and we really appreciated how often people checked in with us to ensure everything was to our liking. We also had our rehearsal dinner at the Sheraton, and it was lovely as well. All in all, I have no complaints. Couldn't be happier we made this choice. :)

Everything about the Sheraton Madison was truly top notch. It was by far the best decision we could have made for our wedding reception venue. Lauren and Maija were stellar from our first visit last year, all the way up to the food tasting, room set up and making sure the reception evening went smoothly. (You have a room reserved to bustle my dress? And our favorite drinks ready for us on a silver platter? Wow! Do we cut the cake now? When do we start making rounds to visit our guest tables?) The catering manager and the chef were also fantastic as we had a variety dietary concerns that they handled with no questions asked. The food was out of this world delicious. No one expects wedding food to be good... IT WAS AMAZING! I can't say enough about the staff. The front desk was so helpful, the servers at the cafe knew who we were on Wednesday at lunch and brought my parents, my (now) husband and myself a little treat, the bartender made best friends with my nieces over the weekend, the servers at the reception went above and beyond for us. The whole staff really made our whole wedding weekend unbelievably special and we are so grateful for all of their hard work. Our wedding day was truly the best day of our lives and the Sheraton had a huge hand in making that happen. Thank you all!

The Sheraton hotel is a perfect place to have a wedding reception. We had so many compliments on how beautiful the room was. Lauren, the events coordinator, and the rest of the staff went above and beyond to make sure that all our needs were met. We live in a different state and Lauren worked with us planning over email and phone. We will recommend the Sheraton hotel to everyone!

Location: As Madison residents with several out-of-town guests, we needed a location that could accommodate a large number of people in an easy to navigate location. The Sheraton was perfect. Plenty of room, even with 300+ guests, and easy to get to. And, lots of our out-of-town guests came in a few nights early and took the free shuttle to downtown.

Overall Service: We cannot say enough good things about the staff at the Sheraton. Lauren and Jeff are both outstanding. Lauren is extremely knowledgeable, helpful, and accommodating; our meetings with her were extremely helpful in creating an amazing reception. The staff are very polite, efficient, and talented. It seemed that everything ran as a fine-tuned machine – plates came out at the perfect rate, and transitions were flawless – but, at the same time, you almost didn't notice they were there. Serving perfection.

A quick note on value: Yes, a wedding is pricey. But, every dollar we spent at the Sheraton was WELL WORTH IT. The amount of praise we received from our guests was unbelievable, and, if given the opportunity to do it all over, we would do it exactly the same way.

Congratulations to the staff at the Sheraton for creating such an unbelievable experience for their guests. Well done.

The Sheraton started as our 3rd pick for venues but quickly rose to the top because Maija and Lauren were so helpful. The other venues didn't seem to be interested in our business or answering our question so choosing the Sheraton was easy.
We also liked the free parking as well as an airport shuttle for guests. Lauren was there on our wedding day, thank goodness, because we definitely needed a little help organizing as our wedding was planned on short notice. Thank You!!!

The Sheraton Madison Hotel is really a no-brainer for the wedding where many of the guests are from outside Dane County and to whom Madison would be a complicated place in which to drive. Rehearsal, dinner, ceremony, reception and overnight accomodations are all in one place. It is easy for out-of-towners to find just off the Beltline and, once there, guests don't have to leave. But if they want to, John Nolan Drive takes them right into Madison along Lake Monona. We recommend the Sheraton as a venue for one other reason: Jeff, Eric and their competent and professional staff make sure things are done the way they are suppose to be done.
