Impeccable Service

I had my wedding at the Omni this past weekend, and everything from the food to the level of service was top notch. MaryBeth is the most amazing coordinator the Omni could appoint to help the bride and groom. She was knowledgeable, kind, prompt & super excited to help in any way. She even few in a few surprise extra touches to make our day very special. If I could get married all over again, I would choose the Omni. My guest had nothing but great things to say about the food and the ambiance. 10/10!!

Well-equipped for all events

We had our wedding block at the Omni and the process was super smooth from start to finish. They helped us gauge how many rooms to get, track our bookings over time, hand out welcome bags to guests, answer questions and communicate things to guests as needed, and even left thoughtful touches in the rooms. The hotel itself is very comfortable, has a pool/gym as well as a bar/restaurant and Starbucks on site, and you're in the heart of downtown Richmond right by lots of good spots to eat and drink. Perfect as a place to gather people, and they have events every weekend so they know what they're doing!

Would Highly Recommend

My husband had our reception very recently at the Omni in the Magnolia Room for under 50 guests.

The room was absolutely perfect for the smaller wedding size, however, it could certainly hold a larger wedding as well. The entire Omni team was very responsive, attentive, and helpful from touring the venue all the way to the reception itself.

The hotel is beautiful, the venue was stunning, the food was absolutely delicious, and it is of course so helpful to have food, tables, chairs, linens, plates, etc. provided all by the venue.

Everyone really went over the top to make sure that we had a special and memorable day.
