The vendor was great, but our experience was truly exceptional because of interactions with Alexis. She was responsive, always positive and most importantly, she was very patient with us throughout the entire process. We cannot say enough good things about her.

We recently had our wedding at the Claremont Hotel. Everyone there was great especially the event catering manager Alexis Garhammer. We planned our wedding on short notice and Alexis was extremely flexible and professional. She was responsive and very communicative throughout the entire process. She was there with us from the planning process including the rehearsal, ceremony and reception. Her team was awesome and went above and beyond to ensure we enjoyed our special day.

The Claremont was the perfect place for my wedding! The staff was extremely helpful from the planning process all the way until the day of the ceremony. The event manager Alexis was awesome and great to work with. She kept us updated on the process which was very important to us since our wedding was planned in such a quick time frame. Linda and her team from the catering staff we so friendly and flexible on the day of our wedding. My husband and I were very impressed with the staff's professionalism and genuine interest in making sure we enjoyed our wedding experience. We have already booked our first year anniversary at the Claremont and look forward to returning next year!
