It just felt right!!!

I met with other venues and didn’t feel the welcoming and excitement a wedding should have, I went to the Genetti and my experience was completely different. It felt right, our wedding expert was excited and helped bounced around ideas to make it everything I wanted. PERFECT!

Highly recommend

Julie was amazing to work with from day one of starting to plan our diamond package experience at genetti. She was so attentive and available. The bartender kept the drinks flowing and our signature drinks were delicious. Horsdevuers was so delicious! Mushroom stuffed crab and beef Wellington!! The lobster tail at meal was so good and made the dinner fancy feel. Diamond package is the way to go the cocktail hour and flowing drinks they do not skimp on ( some wedding bars have ive been to but not here ) and the delicious dinner options. The rooms are unbelievably comfortable I did not want to wake up. Overall it was the best day ever thanks to this venue I highly recommend !!

The Genetti Hotel in Williamsport, PA is amazing! We had our daughter and son-in-law's wedding there on 9/15/18. We chose the Diamond package. At first I wasn't sure it was worth the price; it was DEFINITELY worth it! I'm so happy we chose the package. We got everything we wanted and more. The staff is so friendly and accommodating. The rooms are so fun and unique. The food was good and nicely presented. The Ballroom was absolutely gorgeous!!!!!! They did a phenomenal job. We had so many compliments on the choice of venue. If you have want to make someone's fairy tale wedding come true, book the Genetti and get the Diamond Package. You won't be disappointed!

I had very little experience with wedding planning and Julie answered ALL of my (many) questions. She made my husband and I confident that we were in great hands. They truly delivered an amazing reception and we received so many compliments on how beautiful our reception was. We also stayed in the bridal suite the night of our wedding and the room was beautiful.

It seems daunting to try to describe in words how absolutely incredible our wedding reception was at the Genetti! From the moment we first met with Julie and laid our eyes on the the Grand Ballroom, we were sold. Not only was it the most grand and beautiful room in downtown Williamsport, but it was, by far, the most convenient option for us and our many guests. We loved having everything taken care of from the room set up and clean up, to the food and linens, to where our guests were staying, and we liked not having to worry about paying so many different vendors but having it all packaged into one price. Julie, of course, was the one who made it all happen. She was very attentive to our needs, extremely helpful in suggesting various options, and always checking in and responding to every call and email throughout the planning process. Every time we met with her, we received her undivided attention and walked away feeling accomplished and excited for the big day. We could not be happier with how well everything went. The room turned out beautifully, the food was excellent, the reception flowed along at a perfect pace, and we are still hearing from guests what a wonderful "dream wedding" it all was! Thank you, to Julie and The Genetti Hotel for making our wedding reception such a marvelous event!

The Genetti in Williamsport was the ultimate place to have our reception. We could not have been more thrilled by the level of service we received by every single member of the staff. I work as a professional conference & event planner and have planned events at different hotels across the country. I can confidently say I’ve never been more impressed with another venue. The Genetti was incredible in terms of everything from professionalism to reasonability of pricing. They were welcoming, accommodating, flexible, and just a total joy to work with in every aspect. We also had our room block there, and our guest loved their rooms, as well as, the awesome hot brunch buffet served every day. I would highly recommend this venue to any couple looking to get married in Williamsport. Finally, a special shout out to Julie, Alycia, and Cheryl who truly helped make this experience so wonderful for me. I did not have to worry about anything- which as an event planner did not come natural- but I felt fully confident they had everything under control. I honestly cannot express how thankful I am to every single member of the staff who took such good care of us! Book at the Genetti with confidence Brides & Grooms!

9/30/17 We were fortunate enough to celebrate our wedding day at the Genetti Hotel in beautiful Williamsport PA. The experience and level of service could not have been better. From the day we started planning with Julie to the of the wedding they were available and willing to help. We were blessed to be joined at the Genetti by some close friends days prior to the event and the staff were welcoming, so much so that many are planning a return trip in December. The Fourth Street Ale house made all our guest welcome and went out of their way to provide for the needs of all. Alan and his staff our wonderful.

The Genetti Hotel & Suites went above and beyond to accommodate for our October wedding. From the engaging and professionalism from the staff members to the fine-detail that went into the room setting, this place is perfect for any upcoming wedding! From the beginning, the wedding coordinators helped to see exactly what we wanted for our wedding day that was less than 6 months away from our first meeting. The day was beyond perfect and we're so happy we decided to go with The Genetti Hotel & Suites for our wedding reception site. Thanks again for being a part of this memorable day!

Honestly, I don't even think five stars is enough to give the Genetti for all of their hard work and dedication in making our wedding day even more perfect than we had imagined. For starters, Julie and Kathleen were incredibly eager to help with every step of the planning and setting up. They took all of my questions and concerns with a positive attitude and helped me to feel at ease with everything. The grand ballroom looked like something out of a magazine. Cloaked in gold and candle light, it gave off the romantic feel that I had been asking for. The Genetti offers a variety of wedding packages which help to accommodate people of all walks of life. I had my dream wedding without spending a life savings, and that was important to me. The staff were always willing to meet with me, both scheduled and unexpected, to iron out a problem or make changes. As for the food, not a single complaint. Our guests complimented us for weeks on the quality of the food that they received at our wedding. The week of the wedding, we were able to drop off all of our decorations in Julie's office, and the staff took care of all the setting up and tearing down. The jacuzzi sweet that was provided for us the night of the wedding, was absolutely breathtaking. We were also able to block off rooms for our guests, and they received a discount when they booked. My guests loved that they could celebrate with us all night and then be there to have breakfast with us the morning after. The Genetti even went above and beyond in keeping our anniversary cake in their freezer for us until we were back from our honeymoon, since we has no way of getting it home first. I was also very impressed with the fact that Julie and Kathleen kept everything on schedule so that we had time to do everything we had planned. All of our guests STILL talk about our wedding and how beautiful and fun it was. I couldn't have imagined a more beautiful venue or a more friendly and dedicated staff!! Thank you Genetti!
