My wife Dorian and I had our wedding and reception at the Sonesta and it was everything we hoped for and so much more. The food, venue and quality of service was outstanding. Karen, our wedding coordinator was a pleasure to work with she and the entire hotel team were extremely kind, and professional. We highly recommend the Sonesta for any and all Weddings and events.

Beautiful Venue!, Great service, Great Food, Best Value

Hands down Sonesta Gwinnett is a great place for your special day! Karen and her staff are awesome! From start to finish, they were attentive to all the details and supportive of our vision for our wedding.

Let's face it , when it gets down to the last few days or hours before the wedding and things are coming together or ( not coming together) you need someone who has "your back" and can deliver. That person is Karen. She is organized and an experienced event planner. She is always professional and friendly.

We chose to have the ceremony and the reception at Sonesta and it was a great choice! They had several packages to choose from ( fits every budget). I found them to be very flexible.

I mean I could go on and on about my experience , but to sum it all up....If I had to do it all over again .... without reservation I would choose Sonesta again!

Karen and her staff are the best!

Jill Bish, the event coordinator for this Marriott, did an absolutely exquisite job in fulfilling my Indian (Hindu) themed wedding and reception. What "wowed" us during the venue decision making process was the fact she knew how to pronounce certain Hindi words and knew the meaning & background of a semi traditional yet modern wedding for our culture. She was very responsive especially right before the event. She catered to everything we wanted for our big day and made our day very special to us. Trust me the event coordinator definitely needs to have the skills you require for your special event and that involves coordination, timeliness, and knowledge of the event. I could not have been happier with my venue and thank you for hosting our big day! **HIGHLY recommended**

This place was reasonably priced, and I loved the fact that parking was not an issue for our 450-guest wedding! Jill Bish is incredible- she is organized and helpful, and goes above and beyond. The venue isn't the most beautiful place to get married, but it's clean, convenient, and affordable. Would definitely recommend this place!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
