Thank you for making our wedding day perfect

We would not change one thing about our wedding held at the Radisson! Felicity and the entire staff at the Radisson was a pleasure to work with for our wedding. From start to finish planning was professional, stress free, and fun. Felicity was super responsive and resourceful. She helped coordinate, plan, and execute every detail and our wedding day was absolutely perfect. We cant thank her and the entire staff enough it meant the world to us!

Absolutely magical

The Radisson Lackawanna Station Hotel was definitely one of the most magical parts of our wedding. Everything, from the staff, to the location, to the beauty of the facility, to the FOOD (holy God it was good) was absolutely perfect. I felt so confident and so relaxed knowing that everything was taken care of with the Radisson staff. Felicity, in particular, the wedding rep, was absolutely stellar in every aspect of her performance. I wish I could be friends with her outside of the wedding because she was just SO kind!! Even months after our wedding, my guests are still telling me how wonderful the reception was and how wonderful the staff all was! Absolutely nothing went wrong with this team taking care of it all -- which I was so grateful for. I really cannot say enough great things about this place. If you're considering having your wedding there, you will not regret it.

Dream wedding at the radisson!

We are so happy that we had our wedding at the Radisson. They helped our vision come to life and the ballroom was absolutely stunning. Felicity was a huge help in the process! She was so responsive and really listened to what we wanted and helped create the perfect layout. We had a huge wedding and the space was laid out perfectly and it did not feel cramped at all. There was barely any lines at the bars for cocktail hour or the reception. Definitely recommend hosting your dream wedding at the Radisson. Also, Trax is the perfect spot for the after party! Radisson truly has it all!

My dream wedding at the Radisson

My husband and I got married at the Radisson Lackawanna Station Hotel on June 25th, 2022. From the moment we walked into the building on our initial tour, we knew that we wanted to be married at this gorgeous location. We decided to have our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception on site, and we had the pleasure of working alongside Wedding Specialist, Felicity. Our entire wedding process was not only smooth, but FUN. Felicity is extremely organized, creative, friendly, and great with communication. She answered all of our questions along the way, and helped us to stay on track with the wedding planning timeline. My husband and I were able to add our own special touches to the wedding and make decisions about both large and small details. Hosting your wedding at the Radisson truly is a personalized experience. I honestly felt NO stress on the day of the wedding as Felicity and her team handled all of the logistics. I am extremely grateful that I was able to truly enjoy every moment of my wedding day - from getting ready all the way through the reception - all thanks to the incredible work of Felicity and her team. The guests at my wedding had a wonderful time, and loved the fact that they could stay at the Radisson on the night of the wedding. We even continued the party at the Trax Bar in the lobby after the reception had ended. I had such a positive wedding planning experience and an amazing wedding day that I would sincerely recommend the Radisson Lackawanna Station Hotel to anyone planning a wedding or special event.

We loved our wedding and planning experience with the Radisson!

aving grown up in Scranton, I was certain before checking out venues that I did not want to use one of the hotels. Then, the Radisson was only the second venue we visited and we absolutely fell in love! It’s hard to compete with the beauty and uniqueness of the lobby area (where we had our cocktail hour, but where you are also able to have your ceremony)! In addition to that, we loved the convenience of having everything in one place, (including Trax for an after party which felt more fun than a typical hotel bar) as well as the central location in downtown Scranton making it easier for our guests to fill their downtime. Finally, we were so grateful to the wedding coordinator, Felicity! She was incredibly helpful in the planning process, super attentive and prompt with responding to questions and made sure every detail was taken care of on the wedding day. Not every venue comes with a built in wedding coordinator so this felt like an extra great perk! Overall we had a great experience and would definitely recommend this venue for a Scranton wedding!

Our wedding was absolutely perfect!

The staff went above and beyond for us. Everyone was professional and so nice. I received so many complaints on how attentive the staff was. And the food was outstanding.

Every detail was perfect

The Radisson Lackawanna station hotel was the perfect venue for our winter wedding. We used three different spaces for the events of the day and everything was perfect. The communication was impeccable, both between the coordinator and I and between the coordinator and her team (And I did most of the planning myself so I had many detailed questions and often). The flow of the day was seamless and all the personal details we added were incorporated perfectly. The food was outstanding, our guests gave many compliments to the chef. There was not one moment of the day were I was focused on anything other than being married and celebrating with our loved ones and I know that’s because of the amazing staff that was with us that day.

Excellent and Amazing!

The Radisson was the most beautiful location. All of the staff especially the wedding coordinators and general manager were amazing to work with. Everyone did an amazing job brining our reception details to life and made for the perfect day. All staff was friendly and helpful. Working with the wedding coordinator Felicity was so easy, like working with a friend. She made herself available to us whenever we needed her and always answered our questions and solved our problems. She was wonderful! The entire day was perfect and exactly what we wanted with the help from the Radisson. Thank you to everyone who made the day so special and perfect!

Perfect Christmas Venue!

The Lackawanna Station Hotel was the perfect venue for our small Christmas wedding. The lobby decorations were beautiful and made the perfect backdrop for our cocktail hour. Our reception was in the Platform Lounge and fit our vibe and aesthetic perfectly. Everything was set up exactly as we had discussed. Felicity and Abbey were both wonderful to work with during the planning process. They were responsive to e-mails and very accommodating to our ideas. Even though we had a very small wedding, they still paid great attention to detail and made us feel very special on our wedding day. We received so many compliments from our guests both on the food as well as the decor and beauty of the venue.

Fantastic Wedding

I had my dream wedding at the Radisson!! Planning a wedding during COVID was not always easy, but the entire time Felicity (the Radisson’s wedding coordinator) helped me every step of the way! She helped me have the best wedding ever. She is incredibly well organized, helpful and friendly. The wedding itself was amazing. Beautiful venue, delicious food, and friendly staff. I couldn’t imagine having my wedding anywhere else. I will forever recommend the Radisson with 5 stars!!!!!

I've done many weddings and other type events at the historic Radisson Lackawanna Hotel. They recently turned it up yet another notch with the appointment of a very capable and caring wedding & events professional Courtney Kileen. The grand lobby is, well you just have to see it for yourself. The ballrooms are spacious, newly renovated and spotlessly clean. I don't know the chef but I give them 5 stars every time. If you're looking for a first class experience for your wedding or event, you'll find it here. Always look forward to returning to The Radisson.
