About

The Embassy Suites Raleigh Durham Airport/Brier Creek is a hotel in the greater Raleigh, North Carolina area where couples can host their wedding. This modern venue, with a classic ballroom space, welcomes couples for indoor events and outdoor occasions in a graceful courtyard. Couples can find this hotel nine minutes from the Raleigh-Durham International Airport.

Facilities and Capacity

Couples and up to 250 guests can celebrate at the Embassy Suites Raleigh Durham Airport/Brier Creek Hotel. This venue's charming Flight Deck courtyard space features an open-air area covered partially by an optional tan awning. This fabric matches the tone and color palette of the outdoor space, where couples will also find grey and tan stone as the backdrop for a ceremony on the outside of the building and tan curtains hung between pillars of the same stone looking out at trees and nature. There is also a covered portion of the courtyard and, separating the two spaces, a glass wall fountain in front of which water falls in a line like rain. This adds an aesthetic and musical element to a couple's outdoor event. Inside, couples will find two ballrooms where they can host an indoor ceremony or their reception. The Elevation and Flight ballrooms each seat between 170 and 200 guests for a banquet-style reception, or can be divided into smaller rooms as needed.

Such an incredible staff and beautiful venue!

Good morning Robin!

We just wanted to say that you helped us to celebrate a wedding day that we didn’t know was truly possible!!!!! From the months of preparation before , to the busy few days before , to the day of the wedding.
Your communication, availability and understanding of our needs, concerns and what we envisioned our wedding reception to be was incredible and so very much appreciated!!!
We had so so many compliments on the reception as a whole, on the staff who took such good care of everyone, were very available and understanding, the food and the beautiful hotel overall!!!
Chuck and I are in awe of the service we were shown , especially by you!! Our room was simply incredible! I don’t know that we will ever have a chance to stay in a room that beautiful again! Wish we could have enjoyed it a bit longer!! We can’t think of one thing we would have changed.
Again, thank you Robin for your time and attention to help us make our wedding day what it was for us and our guests, especially my family who I have not seen for many years due to us all living in different places, we all had a wonderful time!!!
Please also thank all the staff that took care of us , everyone of them was so professional and understanding and we want them to know everyone appreciated them!!

You take good care!!!

Laurie -Ann and Chuck

Great Experience

Wedding planning can be stressful. The week before my wedding was really stressful being that my fiancé was admitted to the hospital. Robin at the Embassy Suit made sure everything ran smooth and I had nothing to worry about. I had a last minute hiccup and Robin fixed the problem immediately. If I had to do it over Embassy Suit will still be my first choice.

Sky was amazing!

Sky was a joy to work with! It started off rocky because the hotel switched event coordinators 3 times but when we got sky; she came in and pulled together everything for us. She made sure we had everything we needed and that the event ran smoothly.

Awesome time

Embassy was very accommodating in making sure our entire party had rooms if they wanted them. When they ran low on the room block, they added more. They let us see the rooms prior and they were overall very helpful. Devin was the best at helping us coordinate everything!

Great place to stay!

The Embassy Hotel, Brier Creek and Devon were a pleasure to work with. We had almost 50 hotel rooms booked for our wedding in the Brier Creek area and all of our guests were so pleased with the accommodations. The rooms were clean and spacious. We had lots of space to visit and gather as a group in the hotel lobby. The managers reception was very nice and the breakfast was amazing! We booked a private shuttle for our guests to get to and from the venue and it made it easy for our out of town guests to get around. We can not say enough good things about the hotel, the staff and amenities.

Couldn’t Be Happier

Brier Creek Embassy Suites was the perfect venue for our wedding weekend and guests! Devon toured the property with us prior to the wedding, giving us guidance and suggestions as we made decisions for our upcoming wedding weekend. She kept us updated on room reservations as the wedding drew closer and made sure that we had rooms available to all of our guests.
The staff at The Embassy Suites were friendly, helpful and accommodating. The bar in the lobby was the perfect place to gather with our guests Friday evening and Saturday evening after the wedding. Adult guests receive two drink tickets that can be used each evening during happy hour. A free and delicious breakfast is provided with an omelet station along with other hot breakfast choices. It was fun to see our guests in the morning and to visit over coffee. A shuttle service is also provided with a two mile radius which includes a large shopping/restaurant area as well as to and from the airport. Another perk for our wedding was the groom’s family decided to have the rehearsal dinner in one of the ballrooms at the hotel. It really was convenient for the wedding party and families.
We could not be happier with our experience and have the best memories of our time with our guests at The Embassy Suites at Brier Creek!

Excellent! All suppliers did an excellent job. Thanks also to Brier Creek Country Club!

Thanks to Devon Schumman for all the details during our stay at Embassy Suites. My daughter wedding was a blast. All the staff ( Janice at front desk, Bill at the bus shuttle, Summer at the bar and many others) made our stay so smooth. I am very grateful for all the service and I certainly recommends this hotel for the wedding package they offer. Many Blessings always!

Plan B that should have been Plan A

We had our wedding here on October 11, 2019. This review is long overdue,, but everyone was so amazing that I couldn't go without leaving my review.,,.Unfortunately we were one of the couples who was affected by Noah's of Morrisville filing bankruptcy and closing their doors, This left us with about 60 days to find a new wedding venue. I work down the street from Embassy Suites and had been there for a company gala so I knew that they would be able to deliver. I contacted the hotel and was put in contact with Devon Schumann. I explained to her our dilemma and asked if there was anything that could be worked out to have our wedding there at such short notice. She told me that it would be no problem and she made it all happen! She worked her magic and made it possible...I was stressed out and she made it happen...Did I mention that I was 18 weeks pregnant at the time of my wedding...(I did not need any additional stress). Needless to say, our wedding was beautiful. The location is pefect. Every staff member that we came in contact with gave the best customer service. I had several guests tell me how nice and accomodating the staff had been. My original wedding plan did not work out the way I wanted it to, but things happen for a reason and I'm glad that I ended up having our wedding here. Things could not have worked out any better! Thank you Devon for coming though and saving the day for us!

Wedding Weekend

Devon Schumann (Sales & Catering Manager) did an outstanding job handling accommodations and services at the Embassy Suites and Hampton Inn for our daughter's wedding party and guest. Once there, the hotel staff's customer service was equally great and the rooms and amenities were perfect. I highly recommend Devon, and would have our wedding guest stay here again, without hesitation.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

This hotel has a great upper deck for fabulous weddings overlooking the Brier Creek area. The location is very convenient and the service and interior wonderful. I remember one wedding when they first opened several years ago. The outside upper deck was ready for the ceremony and as the guests were being seated, a rain cloud, whipping wind appeared unexpectedly. As the rain started falling, the staff quickly got everyone inside, prepared a ballroom for the ceremony and helped the DJ get set up. It was done in record time and we had a fabulous wedding inside within 15 minutes. Love that they have both Plan A and Plan B contingency!
