We always wanted to have our wedding on the water at an affordable cost. Our evening was absolutely wonderful. Everything we asked for was done to the last detail. Special thanks to Heather, the catering services manager. She is such a pleasant person to deal with. And she's always on top of her job. The location was fantastic, the food was great (guests were already telling us that during the reception) and the rooms were comfy, clean and modern. The only downside is that if you have guests spending the night it may get expensive quickly between the room rate and the parking. After the wedding we went downstairs to Pizzazz and kept the bar busy for another couple of hours. We had breakfast with most fot he guests at the same place in the morning. Everything was just so convenient and magical. We hope one day one of our friends get married there so we can go back and have a great time again!!!

My husband and I had our reception here on July 4th of 2009. It was amazing. Leading up to the event, the coordinator was always quick to respond to emails and calls. Pier 5 also set up a wedding website for us, which was one less thing we had to worry about! Our guests LOVED the hotel-- the whole ambiance in the place is just so modern, clean, and fun. If we could do it all over again we would choose Pier5 again!! :)

The Pier 5 Hotel was very accomodating when it came to negogiating price. We were married on a Sunday, so we had some more leverage than a Saturday wedding. However, with the economy in its current condition, there are plenty of opportunities to get what you want for a good price. The sales manager we worked with was very responsive, but he did not give you the feeling that he truly cared about you and your wedding. Anything we asked was answered in a very businesslike manner with little assistance. If you have the choice, pick the female sales manager, we worked with her for two days before the wedding, and she is phenomenal. When making reservations with the hotel for your wedding party make sure you look online and check AAA costs, so that you can receive the lowest price for your out of town guests. The hotel was not the best at keeping up on these costs, and we found it quite embarassing to have some guests of the hotel getting lower rates than our party. Overall, the day of the wedding was fantastic. The Pier 5 staff was extremely attentive. We were even surprised by the suite that we were upgraded to for our wedding night.

Pier 5 did such a wonderful job on the reception. It went without a hitch(that i'm aware of). Now the only downfall to the hotel was that our room had no hot water. Nothing like dancings and sweating in a wedding dress and then going to take a shower and finding out there is no hot water. We went upstairs at about 11pm or so and by the time it was fixed at 2am we had already gone to bed. They offered to move our room but lets be real who wants to wake up at 2am and change rooms when they are leaving in the morning around 6am?

Pier 5 had a gorgeous view and we found the service to be excellent throughout the reception! They even upgraded us to a huge suite with a jacuzzi and bar!

My wedding at the Pier 5 was amazing. The food was great, the location is perfect, and the catering managers were incredibly helpful in making sure I had everything I needed.

The Pier 5 Hotel is a wonderful place to get married! My mother and I worked closely with Heather (the wedding coordinator) and she made my dreams come true. EVERYTHING went off without a glitch! They provide a "planner" of sorts the day of the wedding that helps the bride and groom throughout the day. We were told where to go when and believe me when I say that was an immense help. The whole day was STRESS-FREE! The staff is friendly and the waiters and bartenders were all extremely professional. The location is just magical. We had our ceremony in the Lighthouse Garden which is located overlooking the harbor next to the hotel. It was breathtaking!

We chose the Pier 5 hotel for the PERFECT view and overall feeling- it was exactly what we wanted! But the further we got into it the more disappointed we got with the level of service. There were times that phone calls and emails were not returned (I wasn't calling every day!) and for a bride trying to plan this was very irritating! I realize that they are busy during the wedding season but some communication would have been nice. It was very expensive but we paid for the amazing location so we were happy in the end. If I had to do it all over I wouldn't work directly with their event planner again, I would hire someone to deal with that.
