It was such a joy to work with The Hotel 1928 for my daughter’s wedding reception. Brooke always made us feel like our event was her top priority. We so enjoyed welcoming our guests to Waco at The Hotel 1928. The ballroom was so beautiful, and the food was delicious. It was truly a magical evening!

We had our wedding at Hotel 1928, and it was absolutely everything we dreamed of. From the rehearsal to the ceremony and reception, the team at Hotel 1928—especially Brooke—went above and beyond to make our day perfect. Brooke was there to troubleshoot during the rehearsal and had everything set up for us so we could visualize the space and make any last-minute changes. That level of preparation and attention to detail really set the tone for the rest of our wedding.

Our ceremony was held in the ballroom, and after the ceremony, guests moved to Bertie’s, the rooftop bar, for cocktail hour while the ballroom was flawlessly flipped for the reception. The hotel also catered our wedding, and the food was incredible. We had a hard time choosing our menu because everything was so delicious. Day-of, they served two different desserts for our guests (a special touch!) and even surprised everyone with a late-night snack of chicken tenders, fries, and house-made black garlic ranch.

We started the day getting ready off-site, then checked into the Washington Suite to finish getting ready and take photos before the ceremony. The suite was perfect—spacious, picturesque, and ideal for first-look photos and private vows. The hotel even prepared a charcuterie board for us to snack on while getting ready, which was such a thoughtful touch. Having a private dinner for just the two of us after cocktail hour and before the reception was a highlight, and I highly recommend it to any couple.

Brooke and her team took care of everything—linens, dining ware, helping with the layout, and even offering to make our programs, drink signs, and menus (which were customized to match our style). They truly thought of every detail, and everything was spotless and organized throughout the day. The staff was incredibly accommodating, and our guests appreciated the discounted rooms and valet parking options.

Hotel 1928 may be on the pricier side, but the service, experience, and level of care you receive are unmatched. It’s truly worth every penny. If I could do it all over again, I wouldn’t change a single thing.
