Amazing 10.....10
Marissa was amazing from scheduling the tasting to walking us through everything and keeping us on track the day of. The food and presentation was beautiful. I would highly recommend the tuna poke for an appetizer. I love tuna and on a warm summer day a chilled piece of tuna and a cocktail are perfect! Of course we had fruut with caramel sauce. I appreciated Marrisa's quick respinse time, she always answered the phone, which is a miracle given how busy they are. The service staff, bartenders, set-up crews, Chef were exceptional! -

Exceptional!
We just got married here over the past weekend. Marissa is super AMAZING as well as Elena. They both worked very hard to make sure our day was special. The bartender and Spa 33 was phenomenal. I hands down recommend to anyone who is looking for a stress free wedding!! Even with weather hiccups nobody even noticed. We will definitely come back for our anniversary because the resort was absolutely beautiful.-

Kristina was amazing!! Everyone was so accommodating and the venue was absolutely gorgeous!!
Kristina was very attentive and communicative with us regarding our requests and questions. The food was delicious and staff was very friendly. Our ceremony on the lawn was beautiful and the dunes ballroom had the most amazing panoramic view of the ocean. I would highly recommend this venue!! -

Williams Wedding 11/03/2018
Every wonderful word you can think of they are just that. OMG Kristina Aaronson was a 2nd Mother. I love her dearly she was more than help , all of the staff I love them all. If you wanting to have a beach wedding I promise you will not go wrong with booking at The Kingston Resort... The food was great, very very clean, and the rooms..... 😩 makes you want to stay forever. Very peaceful and comfortable. Can’t wait to visit them again. -

We chose the Hilton because they had an oceanfront ballroom. It was absolutely gorgeous! The team worked together to make sure we received everything we wanted. It was a dream wedding come true! They give you a day of team to help make sure that things flow seamlessly and it worked exactly as planned. We had many requests that they filled for us and would absolutely use their Dunes Ballroom & Oceanfront North Lawn again. -

I really, really enjoyed having my reception and honeymoon (beginning) here. We married on the public beach just outside the Embassy Suites, and it was gorgeous. James and Jo'el helped me plan a beautiful reception inside Vintage Twelve. -

I had a beach ceremony and reception at the Palmetto Pavilion. I dealt with Megan from start to finish and she was amazing- not being from Myrtle Beach- she made it a breeze. From emailing back and forth to making sure everything went smoothly at the ceremony and reception- couldn't have asked for anything more! The beach was great of course and we were blessed with perfect weather, Palmetto Pavilion is a beautiful space with a lot of room to work with. Overall completely satisfied- great location!!! -

Embassy Suites Myrtle Beach South Carolina:
From the doorman, front desk, conciere service, bell hoop, housekeeping, nightwatch bartenders, to the servers at breakfast; the level of service was so high, we all felt as if we stayed at The Regent of Beverly Hillls on Rodeo Drive!
We will never reserve our hotel stay with any other hotel chain. -

Katie at Kingston Plantation is a GEM! We had a destination wedding weekend at Kingston Plantation with over 200 guests so it could have potentially been a nightmare for me as we were 5 hours away, but instead, it was a pleasure to work with Katie and all the staff at Kingston Plantation. Katie made the weekend happen for us! The venue was amazing and offers many solutions based on your desire as a bride. You can get married outside on the lawn, on the beach, in a beautiful ballroom, around the pool, just so many locations to choose from. The guest rooms at the Embassy Suites have been renovated and are wonderful! The condos at Brighton Towers were wonderful too. Katie was responsive to EVERY email and phone call I made and she made me feel like I was the only person she was working with. I never had to worry about my wedding prior to or the day of. Katie was flexible and adaptable and handled everything thrown at her. She managed all the wedding vendors for me, helped me with the ceremony and she made sure everything was PERFECT!! The main thing is, the guests had a great time, felt pampered by the staff, and loved the venue. The value was great and they went the extra mile! We had a full blown weekend of activities, rehearsal dinner, welcome reception Friday evening, Wedding and Wedding Reception on Saturday and a breakfast on Sunday. Just an amazing weekend! -

This is by far the nicest and quietest place to have a wedding in the Myrtle Beach area. The resort is located in a great part of town that is away from all the hustle and bustle. The people at the catering department were also responsive with my emails and calls. They met me the week of the wedding and took all the favors and table decorations and put them up for me in the reception hall. They were so professional and were very nice to all of my guests. Katie Goyette was the woman I worked with and she did such a good job. It is a beautiful place and we wouldn't have had our wedding anywhere else if we could do it again. -

I could not have been happier with how my wedding went. In the months leading up to the wedding, we got every little detail figured out with the catering management. We were able to personalize the open bar and the menu to fit our needs. The day before we gave our centerpieces to Melissa, and she set them up for us. The day of the wedding couldn't have gone any better. The courtyard looked beautiful, as did the reception space. Everything flowed seamlessly. The food was delicious (their prime rib is highly recommended by ALL of my guests). We used a DJ from their preferred vendor list (Joe Durivage) that we really liked, and he was amazing. I don't think that the dance floor was ever empty. The only issue we had was with a few of the villas that our guests were originally given. All of our guests were moved quickly if they had issues. All of the rooms in the Brighton Tower were very nice. When comparing them in price to other wedding venues in Myrtle Beach, you get the most for your money here. They are up front about the costs of everything whereas many other places we were looking at, they had many charges that they didn't disclose until we asked. The price we paid for our wedding was worth every penny. My husband and I were able to simply relax and enjoy the day knowing that everything was being taken care of by Melissa and the rest of her staff. Ours was the most stress free wedding I have ever helped plan. -

Planning a destination wedding is full of headaches, stressful nights, and worry... FORTUNATELY if you are planning your big day at Kingston Resorts you do not have to worry about any of those things. The catering managers at the Embassy and Hilton want you to have a perfect wedding day and they will do whatever they can to make it happen. They are extremely flexible and reasonable. Robin went the extra mile to connect with my mom and sister during our site visit and she accommodated my 6 month old nephew who joined us for the tasting. It was wonderful and I would recommend this venue to any bride. -

Lori was amazing!!! I loved the ceremony space on the North Lawn. The Dune's Ballroom on the 16th floor has a gorgeous view. The only part I didn't like wasw the food at the food tasting was much better then the day of the wedding. Staff was fantastic!!! -

I orginially booked this vendor based on recommendations from prior brides that the catering director was fantastic. However, she left the hotel about a week before my wedding.
Embassy Suites immediately hired a temporary catering director who contacted me and went over my contract and menu selections to verify he had everything correct. He was very helpful and went out of his way to make me feel comfortable with a new catering director. I was informed of any changes before they were made and given a choice to not go with a change.
Everything went wonderfully and I would recommend a beach wedding here. They were also able to accomodate all my guests and provided great hotel service for them as well. -

We had our ceremony on the lawn and our reception was in the Dune Ballroom on the 16th floor. The ceremony was beautiful and the reception was great. the view is gorgeous! The tables could have spaced father apart, it was a very tight squeeze for the guest to move around. Nikki, our catering manager was great helping us prior to the wedding. however, the day of, I did not see her at all until the ceremony. I did not feel like she was around to really give us any guidance from one thing to the next. Maybe I misunderstood her job that day but I expected more. The overall wedding was awesome! Although, I really didn't get to eat much of the food ( while it was hot anyway) many of the guests said how great it was! -

The Dunes Ballrrom has a great view. When you're up on the top floor like that and look out the windows (the whole wall is windows) it feels like you're on a cruise. All you can see is the Atlantic Ocean. The food was good and so was the service. -

Our destination wedding was held at the Kingston Plantation and our contact person there helped us with the ceremony, reception and also with a place for all of our guests to stay and the environment was BEAUTIFUL. We also had our wedding during off peak times so everything was VERY reasonable for what we got. Our three bedroom condos for the wedding party were less than $150 per night and they were HUGE! -
