WHAT OUR GUESTS HAD TO SAY
From the start, the Sales and Catering teams were amazing - they were very responsive, had great suggestions, and played a huge part in the success of planning our wedding. We had our ceremony in one-third of the ballroom and it was transformed into our reception area during the cocktail hour. This transformation was absolutely stunning! The Omni staff followed our decoration wishes perfectly, and everything looked beautiful. And the Atrium was a beautiful place for cocktail hour! Our guests raved about the floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Downtown Mall. Additionally, the food and drink service was wonderful at the reception.
My husband and I were married and celebrated our wedding reception this past weekend at The Omni. Every single detail of our experience at The Omni was fantastic. The reception room was stunning, the food fantastic, the service was impeccable, the executive suite had champagne and chocolate covered strawberries upon our arrival after the reception, and all of our gifts from the reception were delivered to the room for us.
