The Omni Championsgate Resort in Orlando was the perfect venue for our wedding event. My husband and I met here at my sister's wedding three years ago, and we decided that this would be the best place to tie the knot. We signed up with Jennifer Smith, the former catering manager, who we knew through my sister. Even though she decided to leave the Omni, Amanda and Lindsey definitely filled in the void. Even though we were concerned prior to the event, and there were some hiccups along the way (what wedding doesn't have them) the actual wedding weekend went fabulously! The Omni is a great place for a wedding, and all of our guests had a fabulous time.

My husband and I were very specific on what we wanted when we were looking for a venue. We wanted an outdoor ceremony/cocktail hour site and an indoor reception with an outside patio to fit 130 guests. The Omni fit what we wanted perfectly!! The staff was amazing from the event coordinators to the bell men. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect and beautiful setting to get married!

This venue is what I had always dreamed of for getting married! My husband and I had a small wedding of 40 guests... we were treated as if we were VIPS... the staff was amazing ESPECIALLY JENNIFER SMITH!!!!!! we loved every minute of it and our families had a ball... the grounds here are gorgeous for a outdoor ceremony and photog ops!

The Omni was a perfect venue for my daughter's wedding. Jennifer and Andrea responded immediately to any question asked during the 10 month planning period as well as offered suggestions. When compared to other resorts in the area the value was exceptional. The food was delicious and the service prompt. Extremely easy to work with and very flexible. The guests loved the pool and other amenities on-site. As a mother of the bride, I would highly recommend this resort.
Ceremony - Ballroom Commons
Reception - Championsgate Room

Omni Champions Gate is First class all the way! When my husband and I went to see the Omni as an option for our wedding, we knew the minute we walked into the hotel that this was our location! The room we had our reception in is absolutely beautiful, unlike any room I have seen in any other facility in Central Florida. Full Length windows with doors that go out to a balcony that over looks the sunset view golf course and sparkling pools! Breathtaking! when you meet Jennifer who is the wedding coordinator you will feel all your stress melt away! I NEVER once stressed prior nor the day of with her taking care of all the details! I must of sent a 100 questions and each time she promptly got back to me with the best answers! Even had a signature drink! The day of walking into the room was more than I could have hoped for! At that point the Wait staff took over and treated me like a princess! At one point they held my drink to allow me to sip out of the straw! seriously, does it get better than that!?! The next day we had a cabana and all of our guests stayed and spent the day out by the pool and lazy river...truly magical way to spend the day after your wedding! We would not have changed one thing about our experience and have found a new place for reunions with family and friends! Our guests are still raving about the entire weekend claiming it was the best wedding they have been to! All of my thanks goes to Jennifer and her team for taking such amazing care of every detail and making this the time of our life!!

A 5.0/5.0 is not enough of a rating to give the Omni. The staff here went above and beyond what I dreamed of for my wedding. From the food to the decor, everything the day of my wedding went perfectly. There is not even one thing that I would have changed from the ceremony or the reception. This resort embodies class, elegance, and they really made sure that everyone had a fantastic time. There are no words to fully describe how incredible my wedding was at the Omni. True perfection!

The Omni is a venue that speaks for itself. The setting, food, and staff are exceptional. Working with Jennifer and Andrea was a pleasant experience. They were attentive to our needs and provided outstanding assistance in planning our wedding. Choosing the Omni was one of the easiest decisions we had to make while planning our wedding. From the second we walked into this gorgeous hotel we knew that this would be the venue that we would hold our wedding festivities. The entire staff was helpful and extremely kind. Our guest raved about the food and service. The Omni is definitely an A+ Venue and I recommend it, with no exceptions.

Absolutely gorgeous venue....excellent food...excellent service...beautiful...friendly....we could not have asked for more!

Omni Orlando Resort was excellent - from start to finish!Great place to work with. Beautiful setup - ceremony was outside. All and all was a great place.They were fantastic!

Jennifer Smith is just amazing! She was the biggest reason why we booked the Omni. The service was outstanding and truly felt like royalty. The overall experience was worth every penny.

From the first time I visited the Omni Resort I knew it would be a special place to hold a wedding. I had spent the weekend relaxing with my sister and taking in the lazy river. By the end of the weekend I realized how perfect the setting would be for my wedding. The location was beautiful. You could relax by the pool or enjoy the lazy river. The families could enjoy the kids pool and slide. There was golf and a full spa. Plus there were restaurants and a very nice bar, so I couldn't find anything that was missing. I decided I needed to bring my fiancee and let him see how perfect a location it would be.

When I came back to the Omni with my fiancee we made an appointment with Jennifer Smith. She gave us a tour and described the different spots we could have the ceremony and reception. She was more than happy to answer all of our questions regarding the different wedding packages. In talking with her you could tell how much she truly enjoyed her job and how much she wanted to help make it the very best experience for each couple. That was a nice change because we had looked at other venues, where the couples wedding experience was not the top priority. We spent the weekend taking in the resort. We had an incredible dinner at Zen. The next morning we enjoyed the breakfast buffet at Trevi's. I mention these because at both restaurants we had incredible service. The staff was very attentive and made us feel very welcome.

Throughout the weekend we noticed how all the staff members were courteous, polite, helpful, attentive and always smiling. So when we thought about the staff, that we would be working with Jennifer, that we would have a beautiful location and all the amenities the resort would offer, we decided that the Omni would be the perfect location for our wedding.

As we started to plan our wedding from Virginia, we would make many trips over the next few months to not only meet with Jennifer but to meet other vendors in the area. I should mention that both of our families did not live in the Florida. It was a destination wedding for all parties included. The was the most wonderful part about working with Jennifer, how easy it was to work with her. Any question I had, she was always quick to respond. Even when I called more than once or happened to send five emails in a day, she didn't mind. Her experience and knowledge of the vendors in the area was tremendously helpful. While a wedding will inevitable have stress, Jennifer helped take away some of that stress. She was truly invaluable. Each time we were in the area planning we stayed at the Omni. The resort is so relaxing and the staff so wonderful, once you stay you will fall in love with the resort.

Fast forward to the day of the wedding. As Scott and I were both getting ready in separate locations friends and family would pop in to wish us well. When asking how they enjoyed the resort, the comments were always the same. "WE LOVE THE RESORT, the staff is so wonderful, the staff is so polite, the location is beautiful, the lazy river is amazing "... and so on. Hearing that from family and friends, really made us feel good. We knew that it being a destination wedding we wanted our family and friends to really enjoy themselves, and hearing how much they loved it was very gratifying. As we finished pictures our guests enjoyed cocktails and appetizers on the lawn, and at sunset we began our ceremony. Jennifer and her staff had everything covered. When the music started everything just fell into place. All the months of planning and waiting and then having the wedding unfold and be far beyond my expectations. It was so much more than I had pictured. So much of the credit has to go to Jennifer and the staff for making everything run smooth, so we didn't have to worry.

We moved on to the reception, where the food was incredible. My husband and I are very adamant about the quality of food. That was something very important to us. We had been to so many weddings where the food wasn't of high quality. We loved the dinner, and so many guests during the reception came up to tell us how much they loved the dinner as well. Instead of having a cake, we choose to do different flavors of cupcakes. They were spot on and everyone enjoyed them. We were in the Championsgate Ballroom and it looked beautiful. The dj kept our whole party moving and out on the dance floor. It was so nice to see both the young and old dancing together and having a great time. All the things you hope will come together to create this beautiful moment did. Not only was it incredibly special for us as it was our wedding day, but it was special for our family and friends. We took great care to make sure that if they were willing to travel that far to be apart of our wedding day that they would enjoy themselves. I cannot emphasis enough how much the staff went beyond expectations and really wowed not only us but our guests. If there was an option to put 10 stars next to quality of service I would.

Finding Jennifer at the Omni was the best decision we could have made for our wedding day. She is wonderful to work with and we couldn't have been happier for choosing the Omni Orlando Resort.

My guests can't seem to stop talking about the venue where my wedding and reception was held. From the lazy river, to the balcony view of the beautiful golf course, to the spacious suites. The wedding consultant, Jennifer Smith, was more than accommodating. The only criticism I have was with some the servers at there restaurants, which were at times slow to serve, and not so catering. But the other amenities made up for this small shortcoming.

We absolutely loved the Omni! It was very convenient to have everything at the resort. The ceremony and reception were beautiful! Jennifer Smith and her team made sure everything was taken care of. Everyone was extremely helpful:) We heard nothing but the best from our guests. We highly recommend this venue!

Once you visit this venue, you will be convinced it is the perfect place to have your wedding. Beyond that Jennifer Smith is a delight to work with and delivered exactly what she promised for both our wedding ceremony and our reception. Her staff was extremely friendly and helpful both before and during the events. We felt that we were in good hands throughout our wedding weekend, and since most of our guests were from out of town we were pleased to hear that they had a fabulous time staying at the hotel as well. Weddings can be stressful and overwhelming, but by choosing a great venue like the Omni ChampionsGate you realize how important the venue decision is in helping to create an amazing experience.

We had our entire wedding at the Omni Orlando Resort and it was wonderful. They're staff was very helpful and accommodating. They made sure that everything we needed/ wanted happened. If you're looking for a wonderful hotel to have your wedding at in Orlando, I would definitely recommend the Omni. I am from Orlando and have been to many in the area growing up- this hotel is one of the most high class hotels in the area. My husband also loved the golf course at the Omni and the pool with the lazy river was great for the families that came to our wedding. It's a wonderful hotel and you should definitely consider!
