Best weddkng venue especially for a winter wedding
Beautiful venue
Best Day Ever
A classic venue where the service goes above and beyond!
During the wedding day, the team went above and beyond with many thoughtful gestures such as ensuring the wedding party had refreshments during the formal photoshoot (they wheeled a cart outside to meet us during the shoot), wrapping up the remainder of our wedding cake, and decorating the bridal suite with the floral centerpieces rather than throwing them away (we came back to a beautifully decorated room at the end of the night, and in the morning many of our guests took home a centerpiece).
We could all relax and enjoy the wedding day because we fully trusted Mary and her team to take care of the setup, schedule adherence and logistics. The food and drinks were a hit, and the hotel rooms were cozy and comfortable. The bridal suite in particular was spacious, decked out with great amenities and had lots of seating for the bridal party. The rest of the hotel (foyer, cocktail tent, ballroom) provided an incredible backdrop for our wedding - the spaces were absolutely beautiful with all the lighting and decorations. We would highly recommend The Colonial Hotel for future weddings!
Mary & the Colonial are amazing!
