Majestic Hotel for Living your Best Classy, Unique, Amazing Wedding Dream!

Nate and I LOVED the Menger Hotel for our wedding. We walked into the venue and the history, the decor - we said this is it. It's a photographer/videographer's dream - the interior is so interesting, and our guests LOVED it. You don't need decorations since the venue is so beautiful and interesting itself. We loved the Victorian Lobby for our happy hour -we had mariachi there to play, and cocktails - Zara was even able to do pop-tails for us (paletas and prosecco as our specialty cocktail). The reception was set up to prefection and Zara (the catering manager who works on planning with the wedding couples) was AMAZING. She is so responsive, answered all of our questions, and was so flexible with us - she really helped our wedding vision come true. When I was stressed out, Zara made it so easy for us. Also all of our guests LOVED the food. We did the BBQ option for dinner, it was great for our out of towners - our guest thought it was delicous. ALSO the margaritas were TO DIE for. My husband and I are very picky on our margs, and we would easily order these all the time. It was a magical evening and one that we will never forget. The Menger felt like home and I hope it will feel that way for you too! I mean you can't get a better deal - it was one of the cheapest venues, located conveniently in the heart of San Antonio with a ton of options nearby, and has all the amenties you could need (it comes with all the linens, chairs, tables, etc.!). Could not recommend more.
