    Amazing Wedding Venue!

    The Marriott Crabtree was the perfect place to host our fusion wedding! The venue was beautiful, all the staff were very professional and helpful and everything on our wedding day was perfectly organized and seamless. Vanessa was great to work with and always responded promptly to all of our questions/requests. We would highly recommend hosting your wedding here!

    Amazing!! I definitely will have any other future functions there

    Vanessa and her team were so professional and classy. Vanessa went out of her way to make sure the wedding weekend was flawless. The staff at the restaurant during our breakfast buffet was so friendly. Housekeeping was also on point along with the front desk.

    Truly Exceptional!

    I'm a planner with C&D Events and am currently working with Raleigh Marriott Crabtree for a clients wedding. They have been so amazing during this uncertain time and have continually been responsive and have provided exceptional customer service. Their service is OUTSTANDING and they treat our guests and clients with amazing attitudes. I especially love the care given by event leads Vanessa and Kiara! We cannot wait to work with them on our clients wedding this year, and on many many future ones!

    Raleigh Marriott Crabtree Valley's reply:

    Exceeded Expectations!

    The Marriott Crabtree Valley is an amazing venue at which to have your wedding, especially if you're having an Indian wedding. In the beginning, I wanted to get married in Durham because I've had a lot of memories there, but none of the venues were big enough to accommodate our wedding size. My parents had suggested the Marriott Crabtree Valley. When I entered the hotel, I instantly fell in love with the decor -- I referred to it as "modern rustic." The pre-function area is amazing as it has these tall ceiling-to-floor windows that let in a ton of light. The thing that won me over was this gigantic, lovely outdoor patio, perfect for a cocktail hour and photos. While it is a little pricey, the event planning team was gave us a lot of concessions and it was conveniently located next tot he mall. Vanessa was absolutely the best! We didn't have a wedding planner, but she really kept things organized and gave me so much peace of mind. My wedding day was perfect. The ballroom looked amazing for the wedding ceremony, true to my vision. The best part was that it was a little chilly for the cocktail hour and when I walked outside to the patio, they had all the fire pits going. It was such a memorable sight -- it felt cozy and refined at the same time. They gave me the Presidential suite for the weekend at no cost which made my experience very relaxing and ensured that we had enough space to operate. The hotel also sent us customized Tiffany champagne glasses as a gift, which was so sweet -- those are the touches that make a difference. In summary, the service was excellent and venue was gorgeous. I had an amazing experience. I highly recommend!

    The best wedding venue!

    The Marriott was an AMAZING wedding venue! When I first started looking at venues I did not originally think about a hotel. After looking at multiple places I happen to look at the Marriott. It was perfect! More affordable than most places I looked at but SO much included! It was the perfect room to get ready in, a holding room to hide before the wedding, and an amazing area for the ceremony and reception. There is also the perfect outside area for cocktail hour. Vanessa was absolutely amazing and SO accommodating. The entire staff was so flexible and made every detail of my perfect day come true.

    Our Day Couldn't Have Been Better!

    We had such a great experience working with Vanessa Jackson for our wedding this summer. Vanessa was great at handling all the little details for our Indian wedding and also provided some good suggestions about what might work best! She was really flexible and responsive, which made planning my wedding from out of state 100 times easier!!! Also, the venue is beautiful, there were plenty of good spots to take photos outside (which was important to me), and our out of town guests loved the hotel! Would definitely recommend Vanessa and the venue!

    Marriott Crabtree Raleigh

    I worked with Sales and Catering Manager Vanessa Jackson. She was very involved in each and every aspect of our daughter's wedding from day one.
    Answered all questions and concerns and was there on the day of the event
    and every thing went very smooth. I would definitely recommend her if you are planning a wedding at this hotel

    Thank you so much for your kind words, Mr. Bisarya! It was an honor to assist your family with Megha and Saurabh's special day!

    Review for Kiara Nalle

    We had a wonderful experience working with Kiara Nalle @ Crab Tree Marriott, Raleigh, NC (our event co-ordinator). She made our wedding event fantastic, she cared about every little detail and made sure our event was smooth and assisted us whenever we needed her so that we could focus on other important things for the main event . She and her staff worked diligently with our caterer, photographer/videographer, took extra effort to hang the wedding canvas backdrop in the foyer etc. The entire arrangement in the foyer was beautiful and it was all thanks to efforts of Kiara and her staff. Kiara connected with us like a family and we feel connected with Marriott as a family too because of the care that she took to make our event memorable. Thanks for everything Kiara. Best wishes from us.

    Raleigh Marriott Crabtree Valley's reply:

    Wow!
    Thank you so much for this beautiful review. It was so nice being apart of the planning and seeing all of our visions come to fruition. You two are such amazing parents to Nida and went over and beyond to assure that she, her new husband, and all of their guests enjoyed the Wedding.
    I hope that you and your family have been well and we look forward to having both you and Mona for your 28th Anniversary.
    Have an amazing 2019!

    -Kiara Grace Nalle

    An Open Love Letter to Kiara

    Kiara was absolutely amazing, wonderful, helpful, and kind. I LOVED working with her. She made my wedding so easy on me and totally changed the experience. She was so accommodating and you could clearly tell she was knowledgable and enjoyed her work. She worked beautifully with everyone involved, from my wedding planner to my mother to my brothers. She was AMAZING. The food, the room, the accommodations were incredible. She was available via text and email and would listen to my concerns, even the small changes I wanted to make the DAY OF my wedding. She was an absolute dream. Kiara made the experience everything that it was, and my husband and I are still talk about all the help we received from her.

    Raleigh Marriott Crabtree Valley's reply:

    Family,
    Thank you so so much for you amazing words!

    I can say this until I am blue in the face, the love you two share is unstoppable and the whole room can feel it overflowing.
    You two are so kind and made me feel like one of your guests. I am so honored that I had the pleasure of working with you two and getting to know your families.
    Dana, never have I ever had a bride pull me on the dancefloor to dance -until I met YOU! You have given me a memory and first that I will never forget or stop sharing.
    I wish you two nothing but happiness and hope that 2019 has nothing but continuous growth!
    Keep in touch!
    -Kiara Grace Nalle

    Professional, Friendly, Great Service

    I’m April Pyatt, the owner and lead consultant here at Socialite Events. As an event planner you look for a venue that is professional with great service. The team at the Raleigh Marriott Crabtree Valley was just that! Our most recent experience with them and our clients left us truly impressed. They handled the party of 400+ guests with ease. They were very punctual in response to emails and concerns with my clients, and this carried over on the day of the event. They were in no way understaffed and were very well prepared. I highly recommend them for your next event, and I am excited to work with them again in the near future.

    All I can say is wow. The Raleigh Marriott Crabtree made me feel like a Queen! Vanessa was amazing to work with. She was on top of everything and made sure she had all the details for our special day. She went above and beyond on the day of to make sure the event was as stress free as possible! She also had chocolate covered strawberries and MR. & MRS. Gifts with a personalized note. She was present during the event visiting every table to make sure everyone's meals were correct. We were in the new Ballroom with so much space. The price was amazing and the food was unbelievable! I highly recommend this venue for weddings and conferences. Thank you Vanessa!!!!

    We used the Crabtree Marriott for our 300+ people wedding reception. We worked with catering sales manager Maite. She did an outstanding job in the pre-planning through completion of our event. Our reception used the entire ballroom and we requested custom setup and decor. The Marriott staff followed our wishes to a tee. The room setup was beautiful just as I had imagined. The food was awesome. We had a plated meal and our guests really enjoyed the food. I would highly recommend the Crabtree Marriott for a reception. We had a positive experience, and it was affordable. The location is perfect if you have out of town guests. Many of our guests loved that the reception venue was across the street from a mall.

    We had our wedding reception in the Grand Ballroom at the Raleigh Crabtree Marriott. All around the services they provided for us were perfect! We worked with James Tritten and Jim Dougherty. They made the whole planning and day of, flow very smoothly and were available anytime I had questions. We had many out of town guests and they worked with us to help our guests check-in early to their rooms as well as provided a shuttle to and from the RDU airport. Our guests had no complaints about their stay and complimented the staff. The staff knew our guests were there for our wedding and went out of their way to ask how things were and made sure they had everything they needed for their stay. The food services that were provided for our event dinner were great! The hors d'oeuvres were delicious as well at the buffet selection we chose. One big hit was the pasta bar! Our guests loved choosing their pasta, meats, and sauce. Family members also said that breakfast the next morning in the restaurant was just as delicious. Thanks for all of the hard work and for making our wedding reception flawless!

    We absolutely loved working with the Marriott. Our reception was beautiful and the food was wonderful! I highly recommend taking a tour if you are looking for a vendor! Once we had a tour and saw how much was actually included that we wouldn't have to worry about, we were sold! The coordinators are great and respond to emails and calls very quickly! You will not be disappointed!

    Connie and the rest of the Raleigh Marriott Crabtree Valley team were amazing! During the planning process, Connie was very sweet and helpful! She worked with my wedding planner to make our day perfect! We were able to sample from and mix different items to create our very own menu!

    The days leading up to the wedding I called Connie a few times about booking rooms for my out of town guests. She was immediately responsive and made sure everything was ready! Connie even made sure I received my Marriott Reward points!

    Our guests are still talking about the tasty food and professional staff! Thanks for making our day so perfect!

    My husband and I had the pleasure of working side by side with Kelly Brayand her staff. All I can say is FABULOUS!!!!!!!!! The service we received was exceptional! I loved every last moment of it. Kelly told me that I wouldn't have anything to worry about and she was true to her word. All we had to do was show up and the venue was beautiful! The food was so tasteful and had amazing flavor all the way down to the last bite. If I could do it all over again I would, it was beautiful and everything that I could have ever dreamed of. I would recommend the Marriott and their staff to anyone who is looking for a wonderful venue with great staff. Thank you so much Kelly (and all the staff) for everything!!!
