Desmond Testimonials

We cannot truly express our deep appreciation for the wonderful wedding that our family enjoyed at the Desmond last Friday night. Every aspect, from the girls checking in on Thursday, the rehearsal details, the suite decor, set-up for the ceremony, accommodating us for photos, the cocktail reception for the guests and the bridal party, the beautiful ballroom, breakfast in the suite on Saturday morning to the wonderful staff at the Desmond.

Every guest commented on how absolutely gorgeous the Desmond is and you staff was quite proud of receiving the recent honors of Best Wedding site.

Just can’t thank you enough for giving Ali and Jeff, (and Me) a fairy tail wedding to remember. We won’t be needing the ballroom for a while, but I could see littleJordan’s eyes light up thinking about some day being the Bride in that same ballroom. Perrin Osbourne Wedding March 2012

Just wanted to thank you again for such a beautiful evening for my son and Martina. The Desmond provided the perfect wedding reception for Joe and Martina. The room, service and attention to details was superb. I would and will recommend the Desmond to anyone who is planning a special event or wedding March 2012 Wedding

I can’t thank you enough for making Maureen and Ryan’s wedding reception the wonderful affair that it was.

We have gotten the most wonderful feedback: the biggest shrimp they’ve ever seen; the best food they’ve ever eaten; the best soup; the best filet; the most incredible dessert table; such efficient staff; the beautiful ballroom.

Every member of the Desmond Staff was so accommodating and nothing was too much. When two unexpected guests showed up, I was very upset, but everything was taken care of in a short amount of time.

The Staff made sure everything was taken care of after the reception (flowers refrigerated, votives cleaned, etc) The brunch went off without a hitch on Sunday. We would recommend The Desmond to anyone! Please accept our thanks for a job well done! Jerry C March 2012 Wedding

We are overjoyed with the success of our garden luncheon in mid-March…

In addition to exceeding our fundraising goals, we are delighted to receive wonderful compliments about the luncheon from our guests…..repeatedly we are told that the luncheon food was exceptional, the facilities are convenient and beautiful and that the event was simply a pleasure.

…huge kudos to your entire Desmond team. We greatly appreciated the quality of the service we received. — Bridge of Hope Luncheon 2010

Thank you and the entire staff at the Desmond for a fabulous weekend. We also received many compliments from guests about the staff, the hotel, and the food. We really enjoyed working with everyone. We encountered no one who was less than immediately responsive and accommodating. As you can now see from the scope of the event, it’s very helpful to have that stress removed from our production so that we can concentrate on the show. Thank you for being so accommodating with the changes. — Saturday Club of Wayne 2010

Everything was absolutely perfect. We have had one compliment after the other from those that attended regarding the fantastic food….as well as the beautiful set up of the banquet room and atrium area. The raw bar was a very big hit. As a result of the great experience, my sister just booked her wedding at The Desmond…. — Bruno Wedding 2009

Our daughter was married at The Desmond. WOW doesn’t really express how wonderful the whole experience has been. Nothing was too small to be overlooked…all situations were handled perfectly. Everyone…we had guests from 21 states and two were from the UK, raved about the first class service they received all weekend. Your reputation speaks for itself and now we know why. — Schwed wedding 2009

Words cannot express my heartfelt appreciation to you and the Desmond for the wonderful wedding you produced for my daughter and her husband. Every detail from the initial planning, to the final execution was handled superbly. You were a pleasure to work with each time we met, and you captured every detail thoroughly. The entire staff at the Desmond is to be commended for their commitment to customer service.

From the moment we arrived on Thursday evening for the Rehearsal and Dinner, throughout the Wedding and Reception, and until we left from the Brunch on Saturday morning, every request was honored graciously. Karen, you were extremely helpful in guiding Mike and Jenn as they planned their wedding, incorporating all of their personal touches into the events and making excellent recommendations that added value to the wedding.

The vendors you recommended were equally professional and reliable (The Ballroom, set-up for the wedding ceremony, was dreamlike and then it transformed into an amazing Reception venue) The front desk also went above and beyond with several special requests from our guests, including special care for my ailing father who needing assistance checking in and parking. — Perrin Wedding 2010
