Better than I could've asked for!

Lauren Rawls is fantastic at her job. She went above and beyond in every facet of the wedding. Whether it be getting me a drink after the ceremony amidst all the craziness, to making sure my dress was bustled correctly. She was there to help set up earlier than she was required to be, she made it feel like she was actually just family at the wedding! Throughout planning she answered texts and emails within minutes with extreme diligence. I can't stress enough how great she was!! 100% recommend. She'll make the whole process less stressful and helped out in every way possible.

The Wilson Wedding Day!

The Holiday Inn Beach Resort was the best place we could have picked to have our wedding at! Every part of the wedding process from beginning to end was stress free, organized, and beautiful! The food was so tasty, the set up on the beach was more than I could of ever asked for, and the reception was spectacular. LAUREN (the wedding coordinator) was the one who made our wedding day a dream! She was constantly in communication with us and made sure we had every detail and vision come to life. I cannot say thank you enough to her for all of her hard work! I recommend this venue 10/10 for your special day!

Absolutely amazing experience.

Lauren Rawls with the Pensacola Beach Hilton exceeded my expectations on the service /venue package. The Hilton was booked and she extended her services to her sister property the Holiday Inn Beach Resort. She was very flexible and accommodating. Lauren made everyone feel at ease and through. The food was tasty and well presented. The venue was comfortable, and the choice on up lighting was nice. There was a variety of selections for table settings, arbors and etc. She was even prepared if the weather was bad with a back up indoor venue for the wedding. I truly have nothing negative to say about Lauren and would highly recommend her services and that of the Hilton and Holiday Inn.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
