Winter Gala

We had a Winter Gala event here and the service was excellent. From the pre planning to the end of the evening the vendor did an outstanding job to serve us. The coordinator was excellent. She was very friendly and her suggestions for the evening made the evening run smoothly. Any time that I called her she was always available. I would recommend this vendor for your next event.

Great Experience, great value!

My wife and I decided with little notice to get married this year and we reached out to the Marriott and we connected with Laura. Laura was so accommodating, extremely helpful for our wants and needs, our blind spots for things we didn’t think about, and keeping everything on track! She worked with our vendors and got everything aligned for what turned out to be an amazing experience all around!

I DO recommend this venue!

We planned our wedding on a 3 month timeline, and thanks to Laura Russell at UNC Marriott, we were able to pull it off!

We didn’t have a wedding coordinator, so Laura was able to step in and keep us on track for everything. This experience was so much better than I could have imagined, and our guests had so much fun! I cannot thank Laura and her team enough for all that they did to make our day perfect and complete. From coordinating with our vendors, to making sure everything went as planned and on time, it took the stress out of the whole day!

The thoughtful extras like having champagne sent up to our Bridal Suite (which is incredible, btw!) to making sure all of our things were carefully collected and ready for us when we checked out, really made me appreciate their professionalism more.

I would definitely recommend this location as a venue for your special day!
