The day of our dreams!

The Cornhusker was such as phenomenal choice for our wedding reception! They were responsive, accommodated our requests, and gave us the day of our dreams. Our day-of-coordinator helped us plan our food and bar menu, and schedule our day perfectly. We are so grateful for such a wonderful space!

Better than a fairytale

The Cornhusker is long-standing tradition for wedding receptions in my family, as both my mother and sister celebrated their marriages in the grand ballroom. So, when I got engaged, it was a no-brainer to choose this venue. Patrick, Nick, Jana, and Irish helped us work out not only the ceremony space, but also cocktail hour and the reception. Nick coordinated rooms for bride/groom getting-ready and a hospitality room as well. They even notified us of another large Lincoln event and recommended a large room block because they knew hotel rooms would be of short supply. We had a delightful food tasting, which allowed us to choose our favorite appetizers/dinner and the chef was friendly and very accommodating to our needs. They coordinated with all of our vendors without a hitch. Even the smallest requested details were acknowledged, having water in the getting-ready rooms, luggage transported from room to room, being greeted with a beverage immediately after the ceremony, having wedding gifts transported to a secure location after the ceremony, extra food packaged into a mini-fridge in the honeymoon suite in case we didn't have time to eat dinner, cake/decor stored until the next day, and we were surprised with a dessert plate upon arriving to our room as a married couple with personal congratulatory notes from the staff. We were spoiled for the after-wedding breakfast with Maisy as our server, who kept high spirits even before we had our coffee AND served in a timely fashion for guests who were heading out of town. We are honored to have our historic photo as Mr. and Mrs. on THE staircase! Thank you to everyone involved in our event, it was better than a fairytale!

Amazing service & beautiful reception

This hotel had amazing service and offered us so many options for our wedding. We found a package and room that best fit our vision and they got to work from there. They were completely accommodating to whatever we needed and were there to meet with us whenever we had questions. Our reception turned out absolutely beautiful and we truly had the best experience there. We couldn’t have asked for a better day!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
