The best experience

From the moment we made contact with the Embassy suites team, they were nothing but courteous, accommodating and willing to help. Our experience has been superb in getting all our wedding details ironed out with Lauren Weaver and her team.

From planning to the financials everything in between, it was all crystal clear to us, and if any questions were to come up, they would help us in a heartbeat.

The day of the event, we had no worries as Lauren and her team were there for every moment going above and beyond what was hoped for and expected.

If you are looking for a venue that is not only beautiful and has all the amenities, but also has super service, look no further, as this team will help you manifest your dreams into a reality.

Excellent service

We are grateful that we pick embassy suite Monterey bay to celebrate our daughter’s 18th birthday. The ambiance, the food, the service, and the personal touches made our event extra special. Lauren, our event coordinator was always there for us with any questions we have or special request we need. The success of our daughter’s special day was not just the venue but the service that Embassy suite of Monterey bay had provided and we are grateful beyond words. Thank you!

Beautiful Hotel! Melody is awesome!

This hotel was wonderful! They accommodated us with a room block for the wedding and our guests really enjoyed their stay. They have an “evening reception” and buffet breakfast that makes their hotel stand out. Just like with all the other hotels, our reception took place in a lovely ballroom.

Melody their event manager is beyond amazing. This girl worked so hard! All their staff were very helpful and friendly as well. As far as responsive time, she did take a little while due to so many other events she had to take care of throughout the year. But a couple weeks prior she focused on our event and made sure to take care of everything. She goes out of her way to assure the event goes as planned and that the Bride has nothing to worry about other than herself and getting married.

As far as value in pricing, we did spend more than we had hoped because catering had to be hosted by the hotel only... which was a bit expensive, but expected.

As for flexibility, they were strict on what we could have and not have at the reception. This was very disappointing to me because they did not include this information in their contract or wedding packet and it made a big impact on my wedding vision and plans. They do not allow smoke machines (even dry ice ones), sparklers or spark machines, or even confetti or glitter. So keep in mind to ask about this prior to booking with them.

But overall, our reception went really well, Melody is awesome, the food/service was EXCELLENT and they took great care of us!!!
