Atlantis Ballroom at Days Hotel by Wyndham

from the looks of it on the outside, you’d think it was just a regular hotel, but once you’re inside and see the ballrooms, you realize how beautiful it is. My husband and I are in a unique situation: we had lived in NJ when we booked, but about a month or two later we got sent on orders by the military to move to Northern California. We were told by them that we’d get a phone call from our maitre’d, Eric, about a week before our wedding to go over things for the day of & to set up a time to drop off all of our things with him. We flew back to NJ a week before our wedding and hadn’t heard anything from him, so when we went in on the Monday before to drop off our final payment, we let Blair know and she said she’d have him contact us within the next day or so. He called the next day and we worked out a time with him that worked best for us. He was really nice. We brought in a lot of our own things, including center pieces. The Days Hotel has a storage closet in the bar area where they keep your things safely locked inside. Eric made sure to go over everything we brought & we explained what it was for. Some things ended up out of place (possibly due to missed labels) but everything looked beautiful. When we checked into the hotel the night before the wedding, we received a wonderful surprise from Lauren, one of the front desk managers. I wasn’t supposed to receive the bridal suite because that’s reserved for the evening weddings, but it was available, so she assigned it to us! She was also incredibly sweet in general & definitely deserves a shout-out! We also got to speak with Blair & Samantha. We had a nice chat & they seemed genuinely happy for us. The day of the wedding went fairly smooth. I was worried about timelines, particularly when I was supposed to be in the lobby area with my bridal party to get ready to walk down the aisle. Eric has made it clear that he wanted to make sure no guests saw me before the ceremony. I had members of my bridal party go find out what the deal was & they were told he would call my room to let us know when to head down (would have been nice to know beforehand). It worked out, but I think that could have been communicated sooner and not last minute. We were required to make a floor plan & we took careful detail in considering placement & where we wanted our tables to be set up. In the end, it seemed like they ditched our floor plan. The ceremony is in the same room as the reception. We wanted to take our photos there & were told by Eric that it would be no problem. When planning our table placement, we took this into consideration & placed tables no where near that area where we’d be taking photos. Since our plan was ditched by staff, we heard Eric giving our photographer an attitude telling her he needed the space & she needed to hurry up. We thought that was very unprofessional & unnecessary considering the tables weren’t even supposed to go there. During the reception, Eric had approached us a few times but there was a sweet 16 happening in the bigger ballroom & we think he was between the two, so we didn’t see very much of him. We had a wonderful time & the negatives were few (no place is perfect!) definitely recommend having your wedding at the Days Hotel!

edule the day of and just made everything perfect. I would choose them all over again

When Samantha came on in the last two months and for our menu detailing, I was able to sigh with relief for a little because she went over everything exactly and even mentioned things to us that weren't previously mentioned. She really solved everything! Eric, our maitre d, was incredible as well. He was in the background and handled everything before any issues were even able to come about! He had everything set up and perfect with every transition. Our guests are still talking about how amazing the food was and how many choices they had (even with the lowest package and minimal extras)! James and I had everything we dreamed of and more. Thank you so much, we would recommend Atlantis Ballroom to everyone we know! I can't believe it's over and has been for 2 weeks already!

nd none of my guests were served coffee or tea. They took way too long to take orders due to being understaffed which cut dancing short and rushed the cake cutting which happened before people could even finish their meals.

ce things to say about the hotel rooms and staff. Shout out to Jenn at the front desk! It's more than I would have expected from a Days Inn in a million years. Thanks!

atlantis ballroom!! Amazing catering staff!!! Debbie, Jenn and Blair and I'm so sorry I cant remember the matre des name but she was amazing as well!! We are so sad it's over because everyone including the guests had an amazing time! If you want an amazing wedding book here! Love the Gagliardos

cocktail hour and reception details was handled with the utmost care. We would be giving a flawless review if it hadn't been for the wedding cake. Overall everything was breathtaking. Every detail handled perfectly. Dotting Every "I" and crossing every "T". But our wedding cake, while still looking beautiful the day of our reception, was not in the same condition it was when it was dropped off the day before. While being unsure of how it was stored over night, it was damaged when we got to our reception. Extremely dried out, all the decorations on the cakes (wedding cake AND grooms cake) were damaged as if they had been either left out and got too hot and melted, or had been put in a fridge that was far too cold. Whether it was incorrect temperature maintenance or condensation in a refrigerator, it really upset my mother and me. My mother whom was the one who made our cakes and has done so professionally for the last 40 years. Even though it was still beautiful and no one other than her and myself was truly aware of what happened, she was heart broken because of the time and care she had put into making the cake for her last child's wedding was all for naught. My mother always brought extra decorations in case something ever goes wrong but even those decorations were destroyed over night. With a full service kitchen and staff, we assumed care for the cake for less than 24 hours wouldn't have been a problem. But unfortunately we were incorrect. We had a lot of other intricate details that were taken care of beautifully which included a family heirlooms. All in all, the reception was wonderful and we were very pleased with our time at Atlantis Ballroom and we would recommend them for your events.

om was set up beautifully, with all our decorations placed how we imagined along with a few extra ideas. The food was excellent and plentiful. Our guests gave many compliments on the food, including the children's chicken fingers and vegan options. A lot of our guests were also from out of town, and stayed at the Days Hotel. Jen S helped make sure our guests rooms were close to one another, and that we had enough space and time for the bridal party to get ready. I would highly recommend the Atlantis Ballroom to any couple looking for their venue, our wedding was perfect.

king sure we were both happy with the set up prior to our guests seeing the ballroom! Everything was flawless!!

s delicious everyone that attended complimented us on the amazing job the hotel provided. I would recommend to anyone to plan your event with you. Thank you from the both of us to you and your staff.

great, and Jennifer was always helpful and adjusted things for our needs.

ered, every question was answered. Our wedding day turned out perfect. Nothing was left out or overlooked. We received many comments from our guests about how good the food was and they also were impressed with the amount of food served during the cocktail hour. Thank you again to Jennifer and your staff for making our wedding day "Our Best Day Ever!".

t service. Thank you!

super responsive and always very laid-back. It was always a pleasure to meet with her and she was never bothered by our plenty of questions or requests. We unfortunately did not have Jen for our wedding day but we did had Debbie who was just as wonderful. She made me feel very comfortable and relaxed as you can be on your wedding day! Everyone at Atlantis made sure everything went smoothly. The room was absolutely gorgeous and the food was phenomenal. Although my groom and I were busy all night and did not get to eat much, they packed up plates for us to make sure we ate. All of our guests are still ranting and reading about how good the food was and how much food there was to offer. We would recommend the Atlantis to anyone! Thank you all for everything we could not have asked for a more beautiful wedding day. We will cherish forever! Love Robert and Jennifer Fusik

e shared our first dance as husband and wife. The food was immaculate. The service was above and beyond, from Jennifer putting up with my thousands of phone calls, to our Maitre D on the day of the wedding making sure we were happy and kept on schedule. Our day was like a fairy tale and I will be forever grateful for the Atlantis Ballroom and all of its staff for helping to make my dream wedding possible. Our guest can't stop talking about how much of a great time they had. Thank you for everything!

From the champaign and desserts being hand delivered to my Bridle Suite the morning of the wedding by Jen Marvel and Sam Natiello while we were getting ready to the attentiveness of Sam our Maitre D and the rest of the staff the entire cocktail hour and reception, I and all my wedding guests can not say enough great things about the place. I am so happy I had the privilege of having my wedding at the Atlantis Ballroom. If I could do the day all over again I would not have changed a single thing. Thank you from the bottom of mine and my husband's heart.

le and made the night run even smoother then I could have even imagined! I recommend this place , no questions asked !!!

to anyone looking to have a wonderful wedding day :)

r blew away the others with their service. I had a "mini wedding" as referenced to me by all my guests. Everyone raved about the amazing time they had. From the very first phone call with Jennifer Marvel, all my needs were attended to. Planning was made very easy and the prices were very reasonable for the package we had chosen. The Atlantis Ballroom has a very big dance floor, and with our very large family, we knew this would be a big plus. Days prior to the actual big day, Samantha Natiello was so helpful. She is an amazing Maitre D. The day of the event, she was right there from the start til the end, including prep time and all. If you needed her, you did not have to look far, because she "just knew where to be..." She was always ready and attentive to whatever needs we may have had. The rooms were so nicely decorated with the theme we had chosen. Cocktail hour was a neverending supply of food. Dinner followed and then of course dessert. It was all delicious. All the guests complimented us on everything. The entertainment provided to us by Partners in Sound Productions NJ was amazing. Parents, family, and kids of all ages danced the entire night. Tables were more bare than filled. Photobooth was provided by Just 1 Muzik Entertainment, which I also highly recommend due to the size of its booth, you're not all cramped up and the picture quality so colorful!!! Regardless, the size of the room was so accommodating on handling a large party. My daughter's Sweet Sixteen was a success--everyone has continued to talk about it and both her and I are getting all the questions, where, who, what, and how did you do this??? The party impressed everyone. I spent over eight months planning this party, long countless hours----But then to hear your daughter wake up the very next day after her party, and say--"I wish the night never ended""""" was all I needed to hear. All the hard work paid off, and ATLANTIS BALLROOM was a big part of it. I cannot THANK YOU all enough, and highly recommend booking your next special occasion here!!!!

were all so happy to be a part of our special day and did everything they could to make it perfect! All of our expectations were exceeded!! We cant thank them enough for making our special day perfect!!

sure the day went smoothly. Our package took care of everything down to the cake! Our guest keep calling raving about the food and the amazing time they had! They truly made sure our special day was everything we could have dreamed of. The dj we had was OFF THE CHARTS ENTERTAINMENT and their company name screams what service you can expect. Our dj was amazing!!! My husband has cancer so the last thing we need was to have any worries. We were able to show up with comfort knowing everything was taken care of. If you are debating this hotel for any event......stop debating and book! Thank you all for helping us have the best day of our lives!!

vice was excellent. We are getting compliments still. Everything was picture perfect. Thank you to the Days Hotel staff and a huge thank you to Jennifer Marvel and Samantha Natiello you guys are awesome evrything turned out just as I imagined but better. Thank you so much!!♥️

displayed beautifully. The staff did an outstanding job from the minute we arrived to the minute we left the next day. Samantha made sure my husband and I had enough to eat and drink all night long, checked on us periodically and even brought me to the restroom to help me get the cake off my face and out of my hair. She also had 2 slices of our cake waiting in our room for us because we were having too much fun smashing it in each others faces when we should've been eating it!! Jen M. and Samantha went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect. We can not thank them enough! We highly recommend having any event in the Atlantis Ballroom as they will surpass any other venue by far.

ous and our guests are still raving about it. I would highly recommend everyone to look into the Atlantis Ballroom. They have many choices and Jennifer M, Jennifer S & Samantha along with the rest of the staff are so caring and helpful they make the process so easy. Thank you Ladies for a night that we will remember forever!

uestions while planning the wedding (and like most brides, I had A LOT of questions). Jennifer S. made sure everything was set up with the room block and even had bar stools sent to the bridal suite for use during hair and makeup. And then there's Sam, our maitre d'. She was absolutely FANTASTIC!!!!!! When meeting her to drop off the decorations and signs for the ceremony and reception, she already had our menu memorized, she knew my wedding colors and our theme, she made sure the groom and I actually got to eat something during the cocktail hour even though we were pulled in a million directions, and she ensured every detail was perfect so I could have a worry-free evening. These ladies run a tight ship and I can't imagine what this night would have been like without their attention to detail. And on top of that, the food was delicious and plentiful and all of our guests LOVED the gourmet grilled cheese station. The staff at the Atlantis Ballroom helped me have the wedding of my dreams!!!

e true !!

and I the whole night... Made sure we had everything we wanted, made the night run so smoothly... It's a great and inexpensive place to hold a beautiful wedding.... They are very organized there n very kind... Everything was beautiful :) I really enjoyed my special day

a better place. Highly recommended for brides on a budget !!

the promotion going on and for choosing a daytime Saturday wedding! Everything went smoothly and was beautifully planned. I enjoyed every second of the day and my family and friends are still telling me how special and fun the day was!

happy to share in our experience. Everybody was awesome but I want to especially thank Melissa and Sharon, you guys were amazing. Everything from the food to the hotel rooms for all of our guests were just perfect. Everyone had such a great time! Thanks again!

an I imagined. They listened exactly to everything I wanted. They were super easy to work with and got back to me on everything I needed. I made 3 trips to the venue to drop everything off because we had a lot of decorations, etc and they were happy to set everything up. We definitely got the best bang for our buck at this venue. I've been to weddings that were crazy expensive that didn't compare to the Atlantis Ballroom. The Atlantis Ballroom is extremely affordable. We got the base package for everything and didn't even add anything extra on and everyone was raving about our wedding. I am still getting complements 2 weeks later! I really can't say enough good things about this venue and I feel like I'm not even fully describing how happy I was. Sharon all night long kept asking me and my husband if she could get us anything else. The room was cute and they had 2 pieces of wedding cake waiting for us upstairs in our hotel room with two bride and groom cookies. Oh yeah you get a free room in the hotel that night. Even the rooms are affordable for your guests to stay over. We had a breakfast in the morning which was so much fun, very nicely set up, and very affordable again. I cannot say enough good things about this place. If you are getting married you would be a fool to not book with them, because we made out very well!

but when I reached my reception everything was perfect! I couldn't of asked for more!

he day was flawless, the ballroom was gorgeous, the staff was friendly and the food was outstanding! Thank you thank you from the bottom of my heart!

etter we felt as if the staff was a part of or family. The rooms are very comfortable and clean. Thank you for making our wedding so wonderful!

make the whole process less stressful. Their Ballrooms are beautiful and my guests loved the food as well. I had nothing but compliments from the guests about the wedding.

hat attended is still talking about how amazing everything was :) I couldnt have asked for a better place to have my wedding. It was perfect!

ter how big or small, was addressed...our daughter's wedding was even more than we could have ever imagined. The Atlantis Ballroom was the first venue we visited, and after visiting a total of 13 venues, we decided on our first pick of the Atlantis Ballroom. We fell in love with Melissa from the start and she was so accommodating with the menus, pricing, etc., that we just couldn't imagine having the wedding reception anywhere else. Every aspect of the wedding reception, cocktail hour, accommodations, and staff attentiveness were absolutely amazing. The food and service were outstanding. Samantha Natiello went above and beyond to insure that every thing throughout the cocktail hour,reception, etc., was perfect. So many of our guests raved about the facility, food and every detail and could not say enough about the entire wedding; many said it was the most wonderful wedding they have ever been to. We're still receiving calls from guests who can't thank us enough for the amazing wedding and time they had. The Atlantis Ballroom is the absolute perfect venue to host any affair. We're so happy that we chose to have the wedding there...it was flawless! We have referred other couples to the Atlantis Ballroom for their weddings and all have chosen this venue after their visit...those who have held their wedding there already are also amazed at how wonderful it was. The Atlantis Ballroom and their staff outshine any wedding I have ever been too. Thank you sooooo much for making our daughter's wedding a dream come true. Sincerely, Cathy Placenti

y offer great deals!

l and professional at all times. I want eveyone to know this because the experience I had was amazing. Booking the Atlanits Ballroom was one of the best decisions we have ever made and I have no regrets...the Food was out of this world and the service by everyone was extremely amazing as well. I will continue to send people your business as I know you guys will take care of them as your did us. A big Thank you again to you both...A++++++ Thank you Billie Femiano

d! I had a very, quick "bridezilla" moment directly after the ceremony and during the cocktail hour (because after the whirlwind of being married I realized I barely had a moment to spend alone with my husband) and they accommodated us with a special secluded room and food/drinks. During the entire wedding process, they answered my questions promptly and thoroughly. The hotel accommodated our guests wonderfully! I could not have had a better wedding day and I know it's all because of the Atlantis Ballroom! Thank you!!

champagne experience on a beer budget. People couldn't stop talking about the amazing quality and amount of food. The venue itself was lovely and the staff gave us exceptional service. I couldn't have asked for more.

ime restraint. The moment we signed a contract with Tracy I knew things would be fine. She answered every question I had(and I had alot), she returned phone calls promptly and let me know about specials and bridal shows which helped save us money. Sam was equally as wonderful during the whole wedding and reception. The room where we had the wedding was beautiful and with our minister there it was just as nice as having it in a church except no-one had to travel. I was so relaxed on my wedding day and enjoyed every minute of it. My guests are still raving about the food and decorations. I highly recommend the Holiday Inn for your wedding if you want a spectacular affair. Sincerely, Kathleen Kemble-Beamon

ed MANY venues and the value could not be matched to that of the Atlantis Ballroom. Everything came together for a perfect day that we will remember forever.

reception! We got free chair covers and a free sundae bar dessert when we booked and had a buffet style dinner. The service was amazing, the food was out of this world, and we got nothing but compliments from our guests! The holiday inn is an amazing venue for a wedding reception and they really work with you to make sure your dream is within your price range! My dream wedding was definitely accomplished by the wonderful staff at the holiday inn in toms river!

Hollywood lighting everything was perfect. Samantha, the maître D was AWESOME. The entire night she made sure we were happy. Our guests had an amazing time and we got so many compliments on how wonderful everything turned out. The price is amazing for everything you get. They are very professional, organized and there are so many choices. Huge ballroom and bridal suite was beautiful. We also had our ceremony on site in the Coral Ball room which was BEAUTIFUL. I honestly could not have asked for a better day or nicer people to do this with. I waited a long time for my wedding and my husband and I are so grateful to them for making it perfect. I am somewhat of OCD and they made it awesome. Thank you Holiday Inn. Highly recommend this venue.

rge selection of delicious food. I would highly recommend this venue!

everything at the Holiday Inn from start to I DO. The staff were very accommodating and the food was so good and we had so much to choose from.We had the chair covers and the ice sculpture and the holiday inn all so had centerpieces for us.The dj we used was Off the Chart and they did a great job for us everyone had an amazing time .They made or day so easy for us Thanks so much

s Ballroom is truly a beautiful venue for such a special occasion! I can't imagine having my wedding anywhere else!

amazing to work with and were always there to answer our many questions.They always had time for us and were always so informative! Our Maitre D, Samantha was also fantastic and our day couldn't have run any better.Thank you Holiday Inn for doing such a great job and allowing me to have such a beautiful wedding!

e never known.. it looked and felt like a million dollar day!! From the day we booked to the day we said I Do.. they made me feel like a princess.. enough so that now 11 months later we have booked my BABY SHOWER here (in the Coral Ballroom) and again the service and love given to you in times that could be the most stressful.. I will come back here for all formal or even non formal parties in my future. Thank You again to the AMAZING staff at The Holiday Inn- Atlantis & Coral Ballrooms !! You've become more of a friend to me and my family

have been any easier and stress free. I got a fantastic wedding package, and I got to meet many of the managers that will be helping in my wedding. I met Samantha, the banquet manager when I had my wedding tour of the ballroom, I was blown away by meeting the chef and the excellent food he let me try, and even the general manager of the hotel came in to say hello. There was also another girl in the sales office who was also really helpful and sweet. I can't wait to come back to write my after review because I expect nothing but the best day of my life!

eading up the wedding, although there were a few things I wish I could have overseen at the end, but I'm a micromanager so I like to oversee everything.

enterpieces and certain way, I wanted everything a certain way and it was the way I wanted it and more! I loved how they did my tables with my centerpieces and my destinations the right way everything was just way I wanted! Even halfway through my reception my dress decided to malfunction the ladies of the Holiday Inn where there to help me figure out a way to fix it! They made sure that my husband and I got to get in line for food first and kept checking on us to make sure everything was running smoothly! At the end of the night they put all of my personal belongings (cake toppers, glasses, centerpieces, etc. and everything was washed) that I bought on one table and said you can leave it here for tonight and you can load it in your car tomorrow and I got everything back! My wedding was everything I ever dreamed of because of the people at the holiday inn!

fice jumped into action to help us plan every step of the way. Melissa Ginolfi was an angel-very knowledgeable, helpful and patient in answering the many questions we asked. Tracy Blumenstock was also great in coordinating the event and making sure everything went smoothly. We don't know what we would have done without them.Jennifer Schel at the front desk was so friendly,warm and welcoming and just a God-send for the guests who checked in on the day of the wedding. The food was absolutely delicious from appetizers to desserts. The chef and kitchen staff should be commended. We had rave reviews from all of our guests.Thank you Holiday Inn for a truly memorable evening!

ave been happier on our special day! The staff was amazing and always there! You know you only get married once in my eyes and they were there both physically and emotionally to make us feel special and enjoy our stay at all times. It was priceless and my entire family and friends were treated like royalty. We had our ceremony there as well and it was beautiful. Thank you to the entire staff at the Atlantis ballroom, especially Melissa and Tracy in the sales office, my girl Jenn at the front desk, Shayna, our Maitre D Samantha and the most amazing bartender Brett! I highly recommend having a wedding here!

dly and I received so many compliments about the Holiday Inn when our guests were leaving. We had the chair covers and beautiful bows, along with an ice sailboat and the Hollywood lighting which was all perfect! They made my dream come to reality! I was truly shocked when I arrived at the reception. I did not believe that anyone could pull off what I was picturing and they nailed it! Thank you guys so much for everything!! You are the best!! :o)

ect our menu, and give our final count and floor plan. The day of our wedding was flawless. The ballroom looked amazing, far better than the pictures i have seen, the staff was all professional and in sync with one another. The cocktail hour was delicious and everyone was able to mingle and say hello. The reception was great, our food came out in a timely manner, and our dinner came out hot (not cold like many other weddings i have been to), and the dinner was PHEMONINAL!! The chef did a great job, i wish i could cook half as well as he did! Our Maitre'd, Melissa was spectular, she made sure my husband and i had everything we wanted before we could even ask for it. there was never a line at the bar, the dance floor was always full. Booking the Atlantis Ballroom was a great choice, i would recommend it to anyone! I could not say one negative thing! The rooms sales staff and front desk took care of our room block and guests the day of check in and check out, everyone was very happy with the our venue.

returned every phone call and email. Samantha was helpful the day of the wedding. She went above and beyond to cater to our every need. The Atlantis Ballroom was affordable, beautiful, and accommodating to our guests needs. The food was delicious and plentiful... our guests did not leave hungry! Thank you for making the most memorable day of our lives amazing!!!

icious all of the food was. Our day was perfect from start to finish. I will definately be telling everyone we know about you. The Coral Ballroom was the perfect size for our wedding and was so beautiful. I just wish it didn't have to end. Special thanks to Lynn for everything she did to make sure that all was perfect on our wedding day. From Diana, to Shayna, Tracy and Lynn. We definately made the perfect choice to have our wedding with you. From the moment we walked in the door Diana was very professional without losing that personal touch .

ng the whole wedding. We couldn't thank her enough! The catering department was so easy going with all of the planning and any questions we had got answered. Everyone we worked with seemed like they really enjoy what they're doing which made us much more relaxed. I wish we could get married again just to enjoy everything from that day again! Our room that night was so welcoming and we got all the service we needed with smiles! I would recommend this Holiday Inn to anyone and everyone for any occasion! Thanks!

ng. She was there through out the reception to make sure that my husband and I had everything we needed and more. Thank you so much for making our day so special.
