Wonderful Wedding Experience!

We had our wedding at the Statler which was incredible! Melissa and Casandra were such a joy to work with! They made the planning process easy and stress-free. They answered our many emails and provided us with all the information we requested or needed. They made us and our guests feel important and cared for.
The Statler Hotel staff were very helpful and friendly. The staff at the check-in desk were very nice and helped us with the check-in and check-out process. They also helped us pick up our wedding decor the day after our event.
The ballroom space is beautiful and the wedding suite was clean and spacious!
Chef Eric and his team did an incredible job curating a tasty menu! The food was delicious, and we received so many compliments from our friends and family about the food.
We highly recommend the Statler for an event or hotel stay!

Personalized and Outstanding Service

Having our wedding at The Statler Hotel was hands down the best decision we made. From the flawless service to the unbelievable food, all our guests were raving about their time at The Statler. Melissa was amazing and helped us plan out every detail of our multi-day Indian wedding, which included our guests staying in the hotel rooms for the weekend, holding our post-ceremony lunch in The Terrace Restaurant, and having our evening reception in The Statler Ballroom. We worked directly with the head chefs to fully customize an Indian-inspired menu for the post-ceremony lunch and plated reception dinner (along with a personalized cocktail for the bar). The weekend of our wedding, there were countless staff greeting and navigating our guests around both the hotel and around campus. The staff added so many personal touches for our family's hotel rooms to make our stay comfortable and special, and they made sure all our events ran smoothly behind-the-scenes. The Statler went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of so that my husband and I could enjoy our time with our family and friends!
