Dream Wedding

From our first meeting with Jessie, we knew we were in good hands and she did not disappoint! As with most 2020 brides, we had to postpone and our wedding finally took place on 5/1/21 and was nothing short of a dream! Everything went perfect and Jessie continued to go above and beyond with everything that came our way and made the wedding planning process so easy. Highly recommend the Hilton for anyone looking for a venue! The food was very good and the ballroom is so pretty, our cocktail hour was moved downstairs due to covid restrictions but I think that worked out even better, especially since the downstairs was also newly renovated. We choose to do a late night snack of sheet pizza, which people raved about even more than the dinner! Who doesn’t love late night pizza after drinking and dancing all night?! Again, I cannot recommend this venue or coordinator enough, our wedding turned out to be an absolute DREAM!

We are absolutely glad that we chose the Hilton as our wedding reception venue (and we also had a brunch there the day after the wedding). Working with Mary was great – she’s so funny, and also really dedicated and hard-working. We really liked the way the Hilton does weddings – it was so nice to have one straightforward and succinct brochure that presented all of our options and the prices. It made it very simple to figure out how much the cost was going to be, and what we could add to get to the minimum price. It also wasn’t an overwhelming amount of options – Mary worked with us to have everything exactly as we wanted, but we were really grateful that the brochure presented all of the options and we knew what the possibilities were from the start. We also appreciated that the tax and gratuity are included in the prices on the brochure – that made it much easier to have a projected cost, as well. Everything went exactly as planned, and the food was delicious! The Hilton and our vendors all worked together to make sure everything went smoothly, and we really felt very well taken care of. Mary took care of all the little details and we felt very special! The Hilton staff were all so welcoming, friendly, and nice, too. We really liked that our out of town wedding guests could stay right at the reception venue, and that we could, too! It definitely made the evening less stressful and very enjoyable. The hotel is really nice – the rooms are updated, the lobby is very pretty and we think that it looks impressive when you walk in, and the ballroom looked beautiful. There’s also a really nice outdoor space off the lobby, as well. Having brunch there the next day was great, too. The Hilton was a wonderful place to have our wedding reception, and Mary is really great to work with!

Amazing!!! We are so happy that we had our big day here and appreciated all of the help that the Hilton provided to make it flawless. From the chandaliers and very clean ballroom to the complementary suite and sandwiches at the end of the night, every detail was perfect. Staff was lovely and food was very good. Our guests were in heaven. Special thank you to Mary. She helped us with every step of the way and was great.

The ballroom is beautiful and very well maintained. Mary McBride, the location's wedding coordinator, is excellent to work with as she is very experienced and reasonable. Our reception went so smoothly and we were extremely happy with the facility and staff! I would definitely recommend this venue to others!

The Hilton Hotel was by far, our 1st choice for our wedding reception. After looking at more than 6 other venues, we were happy to have found the beautiful and upscale Hilton Akron Fairlawn ballroom. Their all inclusive pricing for excellent food, beverages and service far exceeded our expectations and provided everything we wished for and needed. Mary M. McBride, Bridal Specialist has a wealth of knowledge to share and she is easy to work with. This venue is absolutely perfect - REALLY !

I would give the Hilton a 6th star in this review if I could. I can't say enough positives to cover how happy we were with our experience. We loved working with Mary - she was very professional and made us feel very special that day. She was a true pleasure to work with throughout. Our guests loved the food and the service was excellent. The ballroom was just beautiful. It turned out just like I had dreamed it would. - Melissa G

We chose the Akron/Fairlawn Hilton because of it's beautiful ballroom, value, and the ability for our guests to just go up to their room. Mary McBride met and exceeded all of our expectations. She was there for me for every little crisis and detail. Our guests raved about the food, service, and overall experience. I couldn't have asked for anything better.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
