Overall, we are very pleased with how our wedding weekend went. It was a bit of a journey and given some recent negative reviews online, we’re going to take some time to tell our story so that future couples can feel assured they are in good hands!

We booked for our Dec 2022 wedding in August 2020. Everything was seamless at first- our coordinator was very responsive and a joy to work with. We felt she really understood our vision and it was all coming together well.

Unfortunately, she left about a year into the planning process and her replacement was less than helpful. We felt like we were starting over and it was immediately clear that this coordinator was extremely unorganized. When she ultimately left the remaining staff seemed to know next to nothing that we had spoken about as there was no record of it.

We were nervous in Nov 2022 when it did not seem like things were getting better. We were informed a new coordinator was hired but it would be a couple weeks until she was fully onboard (meaning we would not meet her until about 2 weeks before the wedding).

Enter: Tricia. She was our saving grace and the biggest reason that we will recommend this venue. She called me 16 days before the wedding and went through everything from start to finish. The big difference here was I never got the dreaded sense of starting over again but rather the conversation was to simply put us on the same page and to put my now-husband and I at ease.

I met Tricia in person the following week to walk through a few things and that was also when I first met Chris, the food & beverage director, in person. He also very quickly became such a helpful resource in our final days of planning and during wedding weekend. We brought in a fair bit of decor that we did ourselves and I was stressing about it all being set up and then taken down and packed away at the end of the night. Wedding day was perfect but I actually want to highlight the morning after. By the time I came down to the lobby, everything was packed and in like-new condition all thanks to Tricia, Chris and their staff! We rented silk florals that needed to be returned to FedEx and Chris took care of that himself since the hotel serves as a FedEx pick up location. It was one less thing to stress about and we are so incredibly grateful!

Some quick specifics:
-Very reasonably priced especially considering what’s included in the packages
-The spaces are gorgeous and recently renovated. It was perfect for our modern, sleek, glamorous vibe for the night.
-We had access to their spacious club room all day which served as both a bridal suite during the morning and then a lounge for the entire wedding party to hang out after photos.
-The food was phenomenal and we were extremely pleased with the kitchen and waitstaff. Everything was put out in a timely manner and our guests are still raving about the late-night taco station!

All in all, there were some rough times in the past year as the hotel dealt with staff turnover but currently, they have the ultimate A-team on board and it will only get better from here as they do more events together (I couldn’t believe they had only been working together a couple of weeks!). I highly highly recommend Tricia, Chris, and the rest of the staff at Renaissance Hotel Patriot Place to future couples!

The Renaissance Hotel has proven themselves to be worth every cent you can give them and then some. My wedding was originally planned for November of 2020 and had to be delayed MULTIPLE times after due to issues both worldwide and personal. Never did I feel unwelcome or a burden by anyone who was working with me. On the contrary, I was treated with compassion and care. Because of the length of the engagement, we went through a few different event coordinators, all of whom were fantastic, with Tricia being the one to see me through the finish line. She was invaluable during the final stages of planning and especially on the day of.

Speaking of day of, the wedding itself couldn't have gone better. All decorations were handled exactly like I wanted them to be or even better. The food was delicious; the service was immaculate; and I have never heard so many guests compliment a venue as much as they have done in the weeks since. I really can't do enough to recommend this hotel for events and weddings in particular. You won't be disappointed.

We had an amazing day at the Renaissance, the venue looked so beautiful decorated to our specs. The food was amazing, the service was top notch, with no complaints. Our coordinator was with us 100% and helped very professionally to get us through the day as well as the lead up.

I would highly recommend this venue for your special day.
