Amazing Team & Experience!

Stephanie and her team at the DoubleTree were absolutely wonderful!! I could not have asked for more from them. We had to move our wedding due to the pandemic and they were so flexible and helpful throughout the process. They thought of everything and really helped us to figure it out and navigate the changes. The food was amazing, everyone raved about it! The space was beautiful, and the day went smoothly. I cannot thank your team enough for everything you did for us!! It was a pleasure to work with you all!!

Amazing! Thank you Stephanie!

Stephanie was amazing throughout the entire process of having to reschedule my wedding with 2 months to go. She was quick to respond and very accommodating with me having to plan with her over the phone/Skype since I live in wyoming. Everything looked beautiful and I am still getting compliments on the food. It was everything I imagined and more, and I highly recommend them for any of your wedding needs.

I truly can't say enough about the Doubletree. The reception was wonderful and went off without a hitch. Meredith, who was our coordinator, was amazingly responsive throughout the entire event. She helped us build the reception perfectly, offering many vendor recommendations and ideas to add the final touches to the experience. The staff at the hotel couldn't have been better either. The flower vendor unfortunately did not deliver the flowers to the girls as we were promised, but the hotel staff turned the place over to get us what we needed.

The food during the reception was absolutely amazing. We had the privilege of receiving their new head chef's cooking and everything was great from the presentation, to the flavor. Many of the guests gave us their two cents on the meal while speaking to them and it was all positive. The wait staff did an amazing job at keeping things moving and clean. Finally, if our guests had a go-to drink for the night, the bartender had it ready and waiting for them as they approached the bar.

Again, thank you to all the staff that made our event everything that it should have been.

We chose the Doubletree Wilmington for our hotel room block, because they had free parking, and a shuttle to/from Winterthur. When I checked in, my hotel room smelled like smoke, but the hotel quickly upgraded me to a suite for the whole weekend, at no extra cost. They allowed the hotel bar to stay open later to accommodate our guests after the reception. We also chose to host a morning after breakfast, which was delicious and well worth the money!

The DoubleTree Hotel provided fantastic service. My wedding coordinator there, Ashley, was so helpful and accomodating. She was so nice to work with and did everything with a smile. The food was amazing and the choices were fantastic. It was very convenient to have my reception at the hotel where we could hang out in the bar area with everyone afterwards then go up to our bridal suite. There were several people walking around making sure everything ran smoothly throughout the night. My experience was perfect!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
