Hotel Room Blocks affected by Covid-19

My wedding is in January as well (January 16), and I am currently in the process of securing room blocks at 2 different hotels (with different price points). While hotel sales staff are mainly working remotely, they have been responsive. My blocked are open until 30 or 60 days before the wedding with a review of the room blocks 90 days before. I’m not responsible for any rooms in the block that do not book. To book in the blocks, guests need to use a credit card but they will not be billed until check-in.

Hi Brenda,

As Sharonda mentioned, I think most hotels (and businesses) have someone answering the calls and emails. Have you reached out to inquire?

In my experience with booking room blocks, the hotel will need to know:

- The date(s) of your wedding/event

- Approximate number of rooms needed / size of your wedding

- Payment source - for example, if you're covering any of the rooms for your parents/in-laws

You'll want to find out the following important pieces of information:

- Rate per night

- Deadline to book rooms under the block

- Process for booking - reservations phone number and/or custom URL (can be added to your wedding website, included on electronic invitations/RSVPs, etc.)

I'm wishing you luck with getting it all set-up soon!
