Matthew Crowe at The Main Created The Wedding of our Dreams

When shopping around for venues, my husband and I were looking for a classic, ballroom feel. We thought The Main was the perfect fit for our goal aesthetic. After meeting with Matthew Crowe for the first time, we knew we were in good hands. His passion for his job shines through and his creativity and talent is clear!! He helped us establish our vision for the wedding cocktail hour and reception, guiding us along the way and making us feel comfortable whenever we had requests or questions. He communicated quickly and efficiently, and was extremely hands on. I can't describe how impressed we were!! At our wedding reception, Matthew was there every step of the way lending a helping hand and supervising operations. Using The Main as our wedding cocktail hour and reception venue was the best decision we could've made! The hotel staff and our room block coordinators were fantastic as well. We highly recommend using The Main for your wedding or any special event.

Best Venue for your wedding in Norfolk!

If you are looking for the best place to host your event in Norfolk, you found it! I am a professional DJ and I work several wedding events here every year and already have some lined up for next year. Before this year is over, I wanted to take the time and share with all review readers how grateful I am for the opportunity to be able to collaborate with such a great venue and the talented team that makes magic happen every time I am there. They communicate well with vendors, everything is always clean and looks amazing, and the layout options are awesome. I must shout out Matthew, by far their most valuable asset at The Main in my opinion, I hope you are lucky enough to get to work with him to execute the vision you have for your event. They surely go above and beyond for their clients to have the best time ever. Go see for yourself, book your event here!

Every Detail Accounted For

I cannot say enough good things about our experience with the team at Hilton Norfolk the Main. They worked with us every step of the way to ensure no detail was forgotten. Matthew was an absolute pleasure to work with and has a keen eye for detail - it is obvious that he is experienced in what he does! All we had to do was show him ideas for how we envisioned our wedding day, and he made it a reality. Not only was Matthew flexible, professional, and organized in planning our wedding, but he was crucial to ensuring the day ran smoothly when it finally arrived and coordinated everything to a T. He even personally ordered and arranged all the flowers for our big day, and they were stunning! Matthew and the team at the Hilton gave us the perfect wedding day - do not hesitate to work with them for your event!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
