Amazing Experience

Our experience planning and hosting our wedding at the Hilton Pensacola Beach was fantastic. Lauren was and is professional, accommodating, helpful and kind through the whole process. Our room was setup beautifully, the food was delicious and the flow from beginning to end went seamless thanks to her! And she kept my favorite drink coming my way all night so I didn’t have to wait at the bar (-,: we had an exceptional night thanks to her and her staff! Also our wedding suite had the most beautiful view. Highly recommend having your wedding here.

Wedding on the beach

Lauren and her staff were amazing! Very accommodating especially doing last minute changes due to the wind to make sure my daughter could have everything outside like she wanted!

Best day ever!

This was the best decision ever. At first I was hesitant on the price but the comparison of a venue that we had to do everything versus the Hilton it was hands down worth it. Most weddings have one or two things that go wrong, but I have to say our day was perfect. Not one thing that I can think of went wrong. If I had to complain about one thing, it would merely be that the potatoes were undercooked and that is so minor it doesn’t even matter. Lauren was amazing. She supported us from the very beginning to the very very end. We are so very grateful for Lauren services and the staff at the Hilton. Definitely recommend 10 out of 10!

The perfect venue!

We absolutely loved our 5/31/25 wedding at the Hilton Pensacola Beach! From the very beginning, Lauren was so responsive and accommodating to help us plan our perfect day. We chose a buffet option and the food was delicious and there was plenty of food for everyone! The chefs and staff were so attentive and one step ahead all night. I cannot say enough great things about Lauren and her attention to detail. Not only was she helpful leading up to the wedding, but on the wedding day she had our favorite drinks ready for us when we arrived at cocktail hour, and our own plates pre served so that we did not have to wait in the buffet line. It was such a lovely venue and Lauren made our day perfect!

Beautiful Experience!

Lauren, the organizer, was wonderful to work with! She thought of everything. And she never got tired of all my questions! God made sure the weather was perfect, but if it wasn’t Lauren had a backup plan.

We had the rehearsal dinner at The Grand Marlin, and it was absolutely delicious!

I highly recommend getting Lauren to plan your wedding if you are looking to have a beach wedding. 🙂

Wonderful wedding!!!

We had our wedding last weekend at the Hilton Pensacola beach.. We stayed at the suite to the ocean view and had everything we needed. Lauren Rawls was our wedding coordinator, she was in constant communication with us and had a great attention to detail.I don’t think I can thank her enough for the wonderful job she did. She was always a step ahead of us and worked quickly and efficiently to everything we asked. I am so happy we decided to have our wedding there. The pictures turned out so beautiful and the preacher performed a wonderful ceremony. Everybody kept talking about it. Lauren and the staff made sure every detail went perfect.. exactly how I wanted it even with last minute requests! Awesome staff and scenic ceremony setting in front of the beach. I’m so glad we got married there. Thank you so much guys!

Perfection!

Thank you Lauren and The Hilton for the most magical night of our lives! Our wedding was absolutely perfect and beyond our wildest dreams!
We worked with Lauren for a year to plan our special day, and from the very first meeting she was nothing but amazing. She was so friendly, kind, warm, and accepting. She helped us through every step of the process and made everything so stress free. She was always available to answer any questions and made this such an easy, enjoyable experience! Lauren was with us every step of the way, made sure everything went off without a single issue, and genuinely cared about our happiness.
On top of how amazing Lauren was, the venue was absolutely perfect. The food was to die for! From the many options to the first tasting to the event, the menu was absolutely delicious! The reception area was beautiful, private, and had so many options for photographs!
Thank you again Lauren for everything!

The Best Experience!!

We had our wedding welcome party at the outdoor event space and it was nothing short of perfect. Our planner, Lauren, was SO detail oriented and was extremely helpful through the whole process! She handled every single detail and was always so responsive. On the day of we didn’t have to worry about anything. The event went seamlessly. Her and the Hilton team are amazing! The food was incredible, the views were spectacular, the drink service was perfect, and we couldn’t have asked for a better evening! So grateful for this team and this event space for helping kick off our special weekend!
