We used the Best Western Gateway Grand as our primary hotel for our wedding guests. We also had our rehearsal dinner at the hotel. We also hired the shuttle to transport our distinguished guests from the hotel to our wedding venue (Valley View). They were very helpful in arranging our wedding block - even though we accidentally picked UF graduation weekend for our wedding. Scott, Vanessa, and Shannon were great to work with. The hotel could use a few aesthetic updates. The staff treated our guests very well. We are so glad we chose Best Western Gateway Grand.

We had our reception at the Best Western in Gainesville and I wouldn't change a thing! Jorge is an absolute dream to work with and made everything run smoothly and perfectly! He was easy to work with and always responded quickly to questions and emails during the planning process. Jorge is great at his job and made our day so special. The food was delicious and the rest of the staff was wonderful. I 100% recommend the Best Western for your wedding. They offered discounts for our guests as well and have a great hotel.
