    Great place, move wedding to another state

    Foxwoods was a nice place, fun vibe and thought it would be a great choice for anybody coming to visit. You have the venue, hotel and things to do all wrapped in one. One reason we passed was because we decided to get married in another state. However I highly recommend this is somebody wants something a little different then traditional weddings. Contact Susan, she was friendly, flexible, and get backs to you fast; even when she is out of office I always got a response within less then 24 hours.

    WOW...thank you, Stephanie! How very generous of you to write such a great review of your experience of working with me. I wish I could have picked up Foxwoods and moved it to make it work for you and your fiancée. I wish you both a long and happy marriage. If I can ever be of service to you, I look forward to you reaching out to me. Happy New Year and thank you again! All my best~ Sue

    Super nice

    My fiance and I met with Sue. She was so polite and professional. After parking on the total opposite side of the casino and not know where we were going, Sue took the time and walked to meet us where were. She answered any and all questions that we had. And I had a lot. Haha. The prices are amazing and we are looking forward to working with her!

    Foxwoods Resort Casino's reply:

    Well, this was a LOVELY Sunday morning surprise, Jaqee! It was my pleasure~you have a beautiful family and a wonderful fiancée who clearly loves you very much! I look forward to the privilege and FUN of planning your wedding. Keeping breathing ; ) ~ We've got this! Thank you so much! Warmly~ Sue

    Such a fun place to have a wedding!

    I attended a wedding here and it was so beautiful. I wasn't sure how it was going to be because of how big and crowded the place is but the ceremony was in an outside private courtyard, it was gorgeous! The reception was held in an upstairs hall that was appropriately decorated with everything casino themed. Afterwards, you didn't have to worry about the after party because we just went down to the bars and casino area! it was a blast.

    Beyond amazing!!

    Everything about Foxwoods and having your wedding at Foxwoods is absolutely amazing!!
    When we first got engaged we started thinking about where we would want our wedding. A few ideas came to mind but then we got to thinking that we don’t want just a basic ordinary traditional wedding, we want something extremely fun and a good time for the guests. Foxwoods came to mind and when we researched a little more we found that they do hold weddings there, I was beyond excited to get the planning going! Foxwoods was a perfect choice for us and definitely went with our personalities. We wanted a spot where our guests could make a weekend out of it for a little vaca if they wanted, but close enough to drive to if they choose. (From central MA).
    Sue Evarts was our go to lady from the very beginning and we really admire what she does. Such a hard worker with so much patience and professionalism! She took all the stress away from us with all the help she provided. We went into Foxwoods to read over the contract and put down a deposit, and went over any questions that we had. For a year in a half
    engagement of ours, Sue was in touch the entire time with grace. Her communication skills are great whether it be writing an email, talking on the phone, or leaving a voicemail, she always got back to us with all the answers in detail which was wonderful. During the planning process Sue also referred people to us as well. Once she got to know us she said she has the perfect officiant to perform our ceremony for us that would be perfect. She was so right and we did book that officiant soon after that referral and meeting with him.
    She knows the ins and outs of Foxwoods and provided us with so much knowledge and advice for our wedding weekend plans. We had our rehearsal at High Rollers in the casino and she was in touch with them as she knew we booked it there. She helped us get in touch with Joanna Anastasiou, and Ashley Medeiros who were so great with helping us with the room blocks for our guests, and always kept us updated on how things were going.
    She also got in touch with all of our other vendors to plan the night to make sure it went perfect and to make it go smooth for us. I got so many compliments about how great Sue and her team were and how organized she is. During our cake testing at Foxwoods we met with not only Sue but Jordan too and I wanted to make sure I recognize Jordan also because she went above and beyond on our wedding night with class and always a smile on our face and hard work. Our guests were very impressed with all of the Foxwoods staff and banquet staff. They are top notch professional people who are very talented at creating the best customer service experience for all!
    Foxwoods was definitely a great fit for me and my now husband. We couldn’t be happier with our decision and we really think you should consider booking here too! One of the most important things to us was not only getting married to each other, but making sure everyone was enjoying themselves and having a good time. I’m pretty sure anyone that goes to Foxwoods loves it and it definitely exceeded our expectations. It was so nice to see everyone living in the moment and having fun all weekend!
    If you choose to have a wedding at Foxwoods, of course that’s amazing. But just as amazing for all your loved ones to enjoy as well. Literally everything you could imagine under one roof, what more could you want?!
    I promise you won’t regret having your wedding here, beyond incredible experience!
    -Lauren & Jeff

    We were the first wedding to take place in The Shrine Restaurant! It was so beautiful. Brooke was amazing. She was always very quick to respond to the silliest of questions, and to make accommodations for any request. I loved working with her. During the ceremony and reception, she acted like a free event coordinator. She made sure everything ran smoothly and when it was supposed to. She set up the whole ceremony area and it was beautiful. The reception at High Rollers was SO much fun. People can't stop talking about it. I can't believe everything she did for us, really. Brooke is great. Getting married at Foxwoods was a blast, and she made it so easy.

    My husband Jason and I were married at the MGM on the Garden Terrace on 9-24-11. One of the many reason why we chose the MGM was because of our coordinator was Richelleann Francis. She was prompt, flexible and provided helpful suggestions on how to stay within our budget and still make it a wonderful and beautiful day. It was important to me to be able to trust our coordinator and to not have to chase after the person for answers and information. We had looked at Mohegan Sun as well but their sales staff left ALOT to be desired for and once we met with Richelle we knew that this was the place for us. She made it so easy for us with promptly returning emails and call as well as her flexibility with the packages. Richelle helped to set up a block of rooms for our out of town guests. I loved how there was a special website created for us that our guests could use to book their rooms it made it a lot easier on me to just include the link in our invitations. Richelle suggested using the lunch menu to help cut costs and she even was able to have a special order done for my husband Jason. I wanted to surprise him with his favorite meal- chicken parmesan and Richelle had that all taken care of. Everything went perfect on the day of. We had many guests comment on how friendly and helpful the staff was and of course how much fun everyone had!! The management even opened up the pool for us so that we could have photo's taken with our wedding party jumping into the pool. Everyone was so accommodating!! If you are looking for a unique place for your wedding and do not want to be forced to pay for things that you do not want or need and you want an amazing / memorable experience...look no further than the MGM at Foxwoods. We are so happy that we chose the MGM to get married at, as well as have our reception. It was an amazing day!! We can not thank Richelle enough for all that she did to make our day so wonderful and stress free!! We would highly recommend her!!! Thank you again Richelle!! Kary and Jason Monahan

    Disappointed with Foxwoods

    My husband and I got married on June 4, 2022 at a winery near Foxwoods. We chose Foxwoods due to location and convenience. We really wanted to like Foxwoods, but we had so many issues along the way.

    We booked a room block of 25 rooms one year out, and every few months I'd ask them to add more rooms, but they won't do it unless the block is completely full. So of course, 3 weeks out we run out of rooms and some people still haven't booked. We were able to get more rooms added but only at a higher rate. Additionally, after the weekend my mom noticed she was overcharged for her room. Turns out, they charged ALL of our guests the higher rate, even the ones who booked early. My husband called and they agreed to issue everyone a credit on their statement. We were really disappointed that this mistake was left up to our guests to catch.

    Additionally, we requested early check in on Friday and late check out on Sunday in order to accommodate timing of our rehearsal dinner and brunch. We asked many times, and were told that this was impossible to guarantee. We called Foxwoods on Friday morning and they said they would give us early check in, but we had to pay $50 for late check out on Sunday. We were spending thousands of dollars there over the weekend and brought in over 60 guests, why stress us out and not just give us these requests as VIPs?

    Also…beware of all of the COVID closures in Fox Tower. We wanted to get bagels and coffee for the room in the morning as the bridesmaids were getting ready, but Einstein bagels is closed (as of June 2022). When I asked room service to deliver 8 coffees to the room (FYI they can only deliver cups and not a pot of coffee to the Fox Tower), I was told it would be $80!!!! $10 a coffee?! Plus, with nowhere to get bagels in the morning (sorry but I'm not paying $20 a person for room service omelets), we had to bring all of the breakfast food in on Friday, and they wouldn't even bring us a second fridge. Luckily my husband and my dad were available to run to Juniors and bring us $3 coffees, but I couldn't believe the lack of room service in Fox Tower.

    Transportation is also no longer provided by Foxwoods, so we had to go to a third party limo company.

    That being said, our suite was nice and large and it was a great place to get ready with my bridesmaids. The Sunday brunch was also delicious, the room was great, and it went seamlessly. Although, we wanted to offer our guests cash bar, but were told it would cost $2K just to bring a bartender in. Luckily everyone was too hungover to drink!

    And finally, the after party at Centrale was AMAZING. Sebastian was so great and helpful. He hooked us up with a great section for no cost and suggested ordering food, so we brought in 10-15 pizzas which was key to keep the party going at 11pm. Honestly, the after party made everything worth it. While most people have their after party at Shrine (the club in Fox Tower), we wanted a more chill vibe and wanted people to be able to gamble and then come back. Centrale is right in the middle of the casino floor, but still plays music and we were able to get food. I would definitely recommend having an after party there - but reserve a section ahead of time. They say there's a 2 drink minimum per guest, but it wasn't enforced.
