    Wonderful, all inclusive venue!

    The Lincolnshire Marriott was exactly the venue that my husband and I were looking for. We wanted the whole event in one place, ceremony and reception and they did a wonderful job accommodating this for us! They have a great package that includes a cake, day of coordinator and much more. We worked directly with our day-of coordinator to set up everything and the venue takes care of everything! The wedding day as a whole was so smooth due to so much being taken care of by the Lincolnshire Marriott team! We made the best choice by picking here for our wedding!

    Exceeded Expectations!

    We got married on 8/26/2022 at the Lakeside Pavilion. We are SO happy with our decision to get married at the Lincolnshire Marriot. We had an outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour with the reception inside. Everything was perfect and our guest LOVED it! From the beginning working with Christine was a breeze. She was so helpful, provided great recommendations and was extremely patient and answered my hundreds of questions with ease. There were several items (alcohol selections, appetizers, etc.) that we wanted to change outside of the package offerings and the Marriot was incredibly flexible and let us make all the changes we requested! On the day of the wedding, Christine made sure everything went on seamlessly. Everything was exactly the way we discussed. The food was amazing as well and we received SO many compliments on how great it was. The grounds and venue are so beautiful, and it was the perfect place to have all our family stay for the weekend. There was so much to do for everyone at the resort. Overall, the Marriott exceeded our expectations, and we would 10000% recommend!

    Angela is the most amazing coordinator, beautiful and perfect venue!!!

    This was the most amazing venue for our wedding and I could not have envisioned a more perfect day. Our event was in the Lakeside Pavilion, and it was set up absolutely gorgeously. The food was DELICIOUS, some of the best food I’ve ever had at a wedding. All my family and friends stayed for the whole weekend and the resort was so fun to hang out in. The rooms were nice and although we were a little scattered throughout the hotel, it wasn’t a problem at all. Wrights Brew and Bistro, the bar in the hotel, was wonderful, taking care of everyone who came through to say hi to us while we hung out. Carlos, one of the bartenders, was so sweet, very accommodating when we descended upon them with everyone.
    But single handedly the best part of our wedding, out of every single person we interacted with, was the coordinator Angela Johnson. ANGELA IS A SAINT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! When you book your wedding with the Lincolnshire, you are also booking a day-of coordinator who helps you with every aspect of planning the wedding on the venue’s side I’m an out-of-town bride, and I cannot tell you how many emails we have sent back and forth with question upon question with plans and changes of plans. When I had a question, she answered it right away. Even when my family had questions, she answered them right away. Her communication is clear and speedy. Any issue that arose, she handled it swiftly and painlessly. She had amazing ideas for miscellaneous things, and she was helpful in giving us an opinion based on her experience when we were considering something but didn’t know if it would work. I want to get married again just to work with Angela. She was just such a joy to work with and made this entire wedding planning process fun and almost effortless. Seriously, when you book at the Lincolnshire, DEMAND to work with Angela! Angela’s bosses, take note of this review and give her a huge raise because she is doing such good work and will absolutely elevate your reputation as a wedding venue. We are sad to be done working with her – thank you so much Angela!!!!! 😊

    Amazing and Beautiful Venue!

    The beauty of this venue was only matched by the convenience that accompanied selecting the Lincolnshire Marriott. One major “need” for our wedding was making sure that there was as little travel involved for our guests as possible. Additionally, we wanted to have an outdoor ceremony. The Lincolnshire Marriott fulfilled both of these for us. They have several beautiful outdoor spaces as well as reception areas, allowing everything from pre-wedding pictures through the end of the night able to happen in one centralized location. They even automatically reserve an indoor space for the ceremony in case of inclement weather. The hotel rooms were great, too, which gave us ease of mind knowing that many of our guests were able to walk to their rooms at the end of the night.

    Our coordinator, Christine Donovan, was fantastic and a massive help. She helped us pickout everything for our wedding from table cloth colors, chair designs, food and drinks, locations, and venue set up. We met with her several times leading up to our wedding, and she was there not only for our rehearsal the night before, but also from 3 hours before our wedding through most of the reception, at which point a “wedding captain” took over to help us close out the night. She was also prompt in her responses whenever we had questions (which my wife had MANY questions throughout the whole process). Thank you Christine for all your work!

    The Lincolnshire Marriott also has an incredible staff. They set up the ceremony and reception beautifully and in record time. It was also such a relief to rely on the catering and bar staff of the Lincolnshire Marriott. All of our guests loved the food that was served, as well as complimented the aesthetics of the venue. You will pay a slight, easily-justifiable premium for this service, but it is well worth it and does not break the bank.

    Best Venue Ever!

    I am so happy that we ended up going with the Marriott Lincolnshire Resort. We had the time of our lives and Angela made everything absolutely perfect! I would highly recommend the Marriott Lincolnshire Resort to anyone!

    Incredible experience with a great team

    We had an incredible experience planning with the Marriott Staff and having our wedding in one of the tents at the start of July this year. From the beginning planning stages to the actual event, everyone at the Marriott were transparent and made the actual planning easy, even though we were planning the wedding from China. The tent was beautiful, the staff at our wedding were ready to support us in any way they could, and we were extremely happy with the outcome (our guests were too). The salesperson Linda worked with us to make sure we could fit everything into our budget, the Wedding Planner Christine helped make sure that we had everything we needed for the big day, and the Event Captain was there to assist us throughout the event. On the day, all staff at the hotel were accommodating from the reception staff, to the bell boys, and the spa staff. The food was some of the best wedding food that we have ever tasted, it was like food from a 5-Star hotel restaurant. The steak was perfect and the chicken was also delicious. We couldn't recommend the Lincolnshire Marriott more for those looking to plan their wedding

    I love this venue

    I love everything about my further venue I first met with Gail who is in charge of appointments for venues and I fell in love with the venue space and the location of it when she showed me it! She explained everything so well. I will soon be meeting with Christine my wedding planner in June ❤️

    We could never have imagined how spectular and beautiful the Marriott would make our wedding reception. Our coordinator, Rose, was wonderful. She was so professional and kind and made things simply amazing. Our banquet captain for the evening after Rose left was Felipe and he was wonderful as well. The food was delicious; we wish we could have eaten more! We so highly recommend the Marriott Lincolnshire that I'm not even sure these words will do it justice. They will make your evening something to remember! You can't go wrong with booking here.

    The Marriott did an absolute amazing job! We had our wedding in get Grand Marquee Pavillon and everything was just beautiful. Glenna was great to work with and she helped us every step of the way! Our banquet captain Felipe was so great as well! We had a few family hiccups come up during the night and he took care of them no problem. Overall, wonderful experience!! Highly recommend!!

    Have your wedding here. Greg and the events team were amazing to work with in planning the day. The food is actually fantastic, and not just good for a wedding venue, like just legitimately delicious. I could not have picked a better venue to host my day.

    We chose the Lincolnshire Marriott for our daughter's wedding and could not have been happier. Our event manager was Gregory Mabile. He was wonderful to work with: always calm and very responsive. He was extremely helpful during the months and months of planning. We always felt that he had things under control. We had the ceremony and reception at the Lakeside Pavilion which was a lovely setting. All of the food was delicious. The staff made sure that things flowed smoothly. We really did not have to worry about anything other than having a wonderful time. We had a lot of out of town guests, so it was extremely convenient for everyone to stay right at the Marriott. The next morning we hosted brunch at the Fairfield Inn restaurant which worked out beautifully. My only disappointments in this venue are the accessibility of washrooms from the Lakeside Pavilion and the decor of the neighboring Main Brace Lounge. Marriott, it's time for some renovation!

    Heidi was very professional and took such wonderful time to help us hopefully decide on their resort. Looked at all the halls and even saw the complementary room you can stay in when booked with them.

    Before I got married, I could not possibly understand how a venue had such great reviews, but 4 days after my wedding, I am absolutely ecstatic about the quality of service that we had at our wedding. First of all, planning a wedding is stressful, but Kristen made it a breeze. She answered every question I had immediately. You can tell that she is a seasoned professional with many many weddings under her belts, because everything ran like a well-oiled machine. From when we pulled up to drop off the items for the ceremony and reception on Friday until we left at noon on Sunday, I felt completely confident in the hotel's ability to take care of us an our guests and make the weekend everything that we hoped that it would be.

    I was thinking that by having my wedding at a hotel instead of another outdoor venue that I was sacrificing beauty for functionality, but I was completely wrong. Everything was GORGEOUS. The outdoor ceremony, the ballroom decor (don't pay attention to the carpet, with upgraded chairs and the colored linens and uplighting, you never even see it).

    Oh and the food? We got a million and one compliments on it. It was perfect. I could not be happier.

    The Marriott was a great place for a wedding (we had ours August 1) We had ours in the smaller tent and it was perfect for a group under 100. The food was fantastic and the guests are still talking about it.

    Kristen T the event planner is wonderful. She is on time and is always around for questions and suggestions.

    My wedding seriously had no issues. The food was amazing, everyone loved it. The set up was perfect and nothing went wrong once. Laura Dailey my wedding coordinator at the Marriott made things so easy and was always in contact. The Marriott did anything we asked even if they normally don't hold a certain food or drink. Our wedding was beyond perfect and rate them above 5 stars. Most amazing venue and such great staff. Made our day beyond our dreams perfect!!

    The Lincolnshire Marriott Resort was everything we hoped for and more. Kristen was so attentive throughout the whole process. Every question we had was addressed in a timely manner. The food was amazing! We got married in the winter and Kristen and her team made sure paths were plowed so we could get our outdoor pictures. Thank you!

    The people we worked with at the Marriott in Lincolnshire included Michelle and Kristen. They were extremely helpful in making sure we had everything we needed, and ON the day of the wedding, Kristen's calm nature and personality aided in keeping the bride(me!) calm.

    The food was outrageously good... Not even "for wedding food," but just in general, it was really great. We got countless compliments from our guests on how incredible everything was, and everyone was so impressed with the unique pot-pie-esque soup!

    We didn't reserve large suites in advance for getting ready (we probably should have been advised to do so by someone at the Marriott), and the normal rooms we had to get ready in weren't big enough, especially with myself, my 5 bridesmaids, the mothers, and flower girl all getting our hair and makeup done... The Marriott gave us a conference room instead and were pretty quick to be accommodating.

    To too things off, the day after our event, our special and sentimental ring bearer pillow was missing (don't leave a 3-year old in charge of such things), and Kristen went above and beyond to find it.

    My whole family was quite satisfied and would recommend this venue for both ceremony and reception needs!

    The Lincolnshire Marriott was absolutely fantastic for my wedding. They were there from the beginning to the end. Our event planner was so responsive and willing to help anyway she could. There is reason that the saying is you pay for what you get. While we did put out a pretty penny, IT WAS SO WORTH IT. Granted, my husband and I footed the bill ourself, but again, so worth it. The entire Marriott bent over backwards for us, and my wedding day is definitely the day I need that. Highly recommend!!

    The Marriott Lincolnshire is a beautiful place to have a wedding especially in the fall. We had our ceremony on the Lakeside pavilion deck with a background of reds, golds, greens and yellows from the trees as our decorations. It was exactly what we pictured! Our reception was in the Lakeside pavilion tent which is a great venue for a wedding of our size, approx 180 guests. The food was fantastic and the service was top notch! Everything came together as we had planned with our wedding coordinator from the Marriott, Katie Rafa. She was a joy to work with. Very helpful, friendly and always quick to respond to my questions. This is a wonderful place to have a wedding!

    We had our reception at the Marriott Lincolnshire Resort in the Lakeside Pavilion. We wanted to have our reception at a place where our guests could just go up to their rooms after the wedding and not have to worry about driving home. Our reception was everything we dreamed of and more! The food was delicious, the venue was so pretty, and the staff was so friendly and accommodating. Laura was our wedding coordinator and she did an amazing job! We definitely recommend the Marriott Lincolnshire Resort!

    The Marriott made my wedding and the entire planning experience one I will never forget. Everything was flawless. I received so many compliments from my guests and Katie Wallis (my event coordinator) made sure that everything was done to my specifications. Communication was always prompt and professional. It was so wonderful to be able to sit back and enjoy our day knowing that everything was taken care of. If you are looking for a beautiful venue with top notch service, look no further. Thank you so much!

    Love, Love, Love the Marriott Lincolnshire Resort. Laura and Linda were beyond welcoming, helping, accommodating, and basically anything and everything you want and need in a wedding planner. Laura always responded to me emails and phone calls in a timely manner and always had ideas and solutions for the problems that came up. The food was beyond fantastic and the service was impeccable. They made every single one of my dreams come true and if I thought that they could, they found a way. They helped make my day the happiest of my life.

    We were so happy with the entire planning process as well as our wedding day. The sales manager Linda Schafer and events planner Katie Wallis were professional and hardworking. Anything they mentioned would be done was done and on a timely manner. The day of the wedding went smoothly, the food was fantastic and the bar lines were short. We would strongly recommend this place to any bride/groom not only due to the above but because the area is absolutely beautiful.

    This hotel/resort is on the edge of the Crane's Landing Golf Course which provides a lovely view, and it is one of the reasons we chose this location for our wedding. For the decor, they set up a trellis as an altar and had wooden folding chairs for the guests. The reception followed a few hours after in the grand marquee tent. Lincolnshire has a lot of experience working with south asian couples so they were able make appropriate suggestions for us. We got many upgrades because we wanted our wedding to be memorable for ourselves and guests. The inside of the tent was all beautiful twinkling lights and spotlights along the "walls" which really added to the ambiance. We were able to get a lot of points for booking our wedding here but the points are not credited right away so we didn't use them for our honeymoon, but that was fine. We had a room block for our guests and heard no complaints. The newlywed suite was decked out for us which was a cool surprise.

    They are spectacular and great to work with. We started out booking them 2 years in advance, they took care of us every step of the way. From the sales manager to the banquet captain. It was a pleasure to work with them and look forward to having more events at this hotel.

    LOVE the Marriott and all their staff! I grew up familiar with the resort and everything they have to offer - their theater was a frequent destination for me growing up. The grounds are beautiful and the pool deck tent is outstanding. They just replaced their existing tent this year and it is even better than the one they originally sold us. The staff went out of their way for us and our guests to make the evening absolutely perfect. I would recommend them to everyone I know.

    My husband and I looked at a few other places to get married but none were as nice and professional as the Lincolnshire Marriott. Even though it is a little pricier than other venues, it is worth it with all that is included. The best part is getting an event coordinator to help with all the big details. Takes a lot of stress off and made us feel more comfortable. Laura was our event coordinator, she was very sweet and made sure that everything went right for our wedding. Anything we needed she made sure that she took care of and as timely as she could. I have said My husband, Laura, and I made this wedding the best that it could be because we were the only ones that planned it. We couldn't have done it without her.

    Great choice

    MOB here. Sorry it took me so long to get around to writing this. The Lincolnshire Marriott, which was completely remodeled & updated in 2018, did a wonderful job. We started working with them late spring, early summer of 2020 - when IL was just coming out of Covid Stay-At-Home orders. Let me begin by saying what a crazy time that was to be planning a wedding. The people of Lincolnshire Marriott did a fantastic job dealing with all the Covid craziness. We chose the Lakeside Pavillion & Patio which provided for a lovely backdrop for the ceremony. If I'm remembering correctly, there was supposed to be an up charge for the Lakeside Pavilion, but it was waved, I think due to the craziness of Covid. There is a minimum of $ that needs to be guaranteed to be spent when using The Lakeside Pavilion. There are 3 packages to choose from no matter which area in the resort you choose, Rustic, Romance, Indulgence. We went with Indulgence since we had to meet a minimum of $ anyways, and was not going to be having the max capacity of guests. We, along with our guests, thought the food was delicious. We gave our guests a choice of Roasted Chicken or Beef Tenderloin (you are charged for the higher priced entree) served with Cream of Mushroom Soup & Caesar Salad. The wedding cake, provided by Lovin' Oven Cakery is included. There is additional costs if you choose certain fillings & such. The Marriott was so easy to work with regarding our decor. The week of the wedding we dropped everything off, and there was a lot. Everyone at the Marriott was so nice, and attentive to our needs during the planning, and the day of. The last consultant we had, Christine, who we had the longest (we went through 3 or 4, because of Covid), was organized & flexible, as well as understanding when we (me) would make a mistake. A couple things to keep in mind. 1) Double, triple check they have your room block correct. Ours got screwed up. I chalk this up to having a number of consultants & Covid, though. 2) Ask for Special Concessions, i.e. my husband asked for 4 free rounds of golf & got them. 3) If you have elderly attending be aware that getting to the rest room my be difficult from The Lakeside Pavilion. My elderly in-laws were allowed access to the spa restroom which was closer than the pubic restroom. 4) The couple is given a free wedding suite for the evening. One of our consultants had said we would have access to it for the whole day. Nope. Another Covid miscue? I ended up having to pay to reserve that room to get it for the whole day for the bride & bridesmaids to get ready in. Otherwise, the getting ready rooms have no bathrooms in them.

    Went on a tour and loved it!

    The Marriott in Lincolnshire is beautiful! The events coordinator is great to work with and made sure she met our needs. The hotel itself is beautiful and they have many options as to food and venues. Their prices are affordable and they are willing to negotiate and help you to their best ability.

    They have been doing weddings for years, and it's an amazing venue to have your wedding. They are on top of it, and you can rely on them!

    We had our wedding here on Fourth of July. We had our own deck with an amazing view of the Fourth of July fireworks. It was amazing. Everything went smoothly and my event coordinator, Karen Frait was so helpful. Even with my crazy request she tried her best to do get me whatever we needed. My wedding ran so smoothly and everyone had so much fun. It was a great place to have our wedding and the suites were so nice. It was nice and big for us to get ready as well.

    We chose the Lincolnshire Marriott because of their vast experience with South Asian weddings and for this, they did not disappoint. We also chose them because we wanted a "one-stop shop" for our guests -- 95% of the out of town guests stayed at the hotel, all three events were held here, and no one had to worry about driving to various locations, worrying about directions, rental cars, and parking. To this end, the place was perfect and everyone really appreciated that. As for execution, it was pretty much flawless -- they executed everything we had asked for, at the right time. Nothing was off schedule, no one had to be reminded twice. They did a great job and we were very happy with the way things turned out. We had our Ceremony on the Lakeside Deck, lunch was served in the adjoining Tent. Our Reception was in the Grand Ballroom. We loved all the venues!

    Laura, the event planner at the Marriott, made my dream wedding a reality. Whenever I had an idea, she knew exactly how to execute it. She was amazing. In addition, the service team was incredibly professional and the chefs really know how to impress. Our wedding was in the Lakeside Tent and it was stunning when the sun set.

    The tent was very nice and the ceremony lay out was also super, when we selected the menu we were requested the main dish with blue cheese instead of onions and at the reception they served the main dish with onions that was the only big problem that I saw but I believe that the wedding planner is not longer with the hotel so I will go for it again we all had a great time

    Summer Wedding at Lincolnshire

    Our wedding at the resort was overall a wonderful experience! We got married in the rose garden, and celebrated our event in the Grove Pavillion. It was perfect for our intimate celebration of marriage! The food is AMAZING! The staff is absolutely wonderful as well!

    However, be careful when booking your wedding. The wedding packages come with a "wedding planner." who is supposed to help leading up to the wedding and the day of the wedding. My wedding planner, Christine, was not up to par. She frequently forgot important information regarding my wedding, such as making sure my bridal suite was booked for the day of my wedding!! She was also no where to be found to fix the problem. Thankfully, other staff members were able to accommodate for this error. Additionally, she was not efficient with setting up for our ceremony or reception, even when given explicit pictures of how the decorations should have been displayed/set-up. My poor (now) husband and maid of honor were setting up- more fixing her mistakes- 30 minutes before the wedding was supposed to start. Needless to say, she made my wedding day more stressful than it needed to be. Christine continuously dropped the ball, to the point where she even went home before her job was done, as explained by her manager. Joe, the banquet captain of the evening, was FANTASTIC!! He problem solved and helped to keep our reception afloat:)

    Overall, I would recommend this resort for your wedding! It's beautiful, the food is great, and it's a wonderful place to spend time with loved ones. I'd have given them all 5 stars had it not been for my experiences with Christine. Hope this helps!

    This was my dream location as far as atmosphere that I wanted for my wedding. We reserved the Lakeview Terrace Pavillion, it is a new tent - highly recommend this site.

    The best advice I can give to brides-to-be who are looking to host their wedding reception here, do not use the menu options they provide. When my dad came to town for the tasting, I thought he was going to fall off his chair. We were told that the hot and cold appetizers were brought in the morning of the wedding and either defrosted or nuked in a microwave. Certainly not the quality you would expect to receive when paying nearly 20 grand for a wedding. So we requested that the chef prepare all the food for the cocktail hour and reception onsite and that nothing is brought in. If you fight for this, it is well worth it. We wish we ate more at the wedding it was so good, people are still talking about it.
