We had the most incredible winter wedding at the Embassy Suites by Hilton Minneapolis Airport, and we cannot recommend it enough.
The biggest selling point for us was having every...
thing on-site. Having the rehearsal dinner, ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception in separate, dedicated rooms-without the need for 'flipping' spaces-made the day feel effortless. It was also a huge relief that the hotel is extremely pet-friendly. We were allowed to have our dogs stay at the hotel with us, and one was even able to be our ring bearer during the ceremony!
Our planner, Taylor, was absolutely amazing. She was so attentive to every detail and truly brought my winter wedding vision to life. The entire staff made us feel like royalty; they went above and beyond with the decor setup, and the food was phenomenal.
A few 'pro-tips' for future couples:
The Cleanup: They let you clean up your decor the next morning. Not having to tear down a ballroom at midnight is a total game-changer.
The Breakfast: The free breakfast spread for guests is top-tier and a great way to see everyone one last time.
Stay an Extra Night: We stayed an extra night after the wedding to decompress before the honeymoon, which I highly recommend.
Our winter wedding was beautiful, and honestly, not a single thing went wrong. Thank you to Taylor and the entire team for making our dream day (and our dogs!) feel so welcome.

ble. I can't sing her praises enough! We had a couple special requests for our reception that she happily accommodated.
Our wedding was June of 2025 and our 130 guests fit perfectly in the ballroom. We had a cocktail hour in Woolley's North as well, which was an amazing addition. The food served for our wedding dinner was exceptional. Probably the best food I've ever had at a wedding! Staff was very friendly as well! We also rented out the bridal suite, which was great to have.
My only complaint, which is very minor, is that the ballroom got hot once the dancing started and the water pitcher for guests could have been filled a bit faster, but that is literally the only thing I'd change. If I could do my wedding over again, I'd choose the Embassy Suites by the Airport & Taylor again 100%. Thank you for the best wedding reception ever!!

k details. Both ladies were extremely helpful, friendly, and provided excellent service. The hotel offered a wedding package that included so many great features: DJ service, Floral Centerpieces, Wedding Cake, Cocktail Hour, dinner, and so much more. We loved all the vendors that the hotel worked with, but they also let us bring in some of our own. Taylor was the highlight for us. She was so helpful with planning and answering questions. We could not have done this without her. The restaurant staff were also awesome every time we were there. My husband is in LOVE with the truffle fries from Woolley’s. We highly recommemd trying them.
We had our wedding party and family stay at the hotel Friday through Sunday as our wedding was on Saturday. We had the rehearsal on site Friday evening. Taylor was there to help us go through the rehearsal a few times. She kept our wedding party focused on the task at hand. We also had the hotel cater the Groom's dinner Friday night. We really enjoyed the food. It was a summer BBQ themed dinner. The food was delicious and the service was excellent.
The day of our wedding, we had a separate bridal suite for the bridal party to do hair and make-up. It is a great space with lots of light and seating. It also has an area with lights and mirrors for getting ready. There was a fridge and counter so we could have snacks and drinks while getting ready. I did not want anyone seeing me before the ceremony besides the bridesmaids. Taylor used a sheet to hide me whenever I was walking through the hotel as the hallways are open to the center of the property. It worked out really well. Taylor kept everyone on schedule and made sure that everyone was where they needed to be by the right times. I am telling you, this woman is fabulous!
We had our ceremony in the atrium, our cocktail hour in Woolley’s North, and our reception in yet another space in the hotel. It was such an awesome experience. Every guest at our wedding raved about the food, the service, and how much fun they had. Who could ask for more than that? Taylor goes above and beyond and my day would not have been as amazing as it was without her. I am so grateful we chose this venue for our special day.

One of the best features of Embassy Suites is how customizable and affordable their wedding packages are, allowing us to tailor everything to fit our needs perfectly. Taylor and her team deserve 10 stars for their outstanding work, and I’d highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a seamless, memorable experience. It was a vibe and the turn up was real!!

s. We had our ceremony at a church but we’re looking for a reception area. The all inclusive type packages greatly appealed to us and would keep us within our budget. Taylor was the best part of it all! She came “included” as basically a wedding planner! We stayed in contact through the process and she was there to answer any questions I had. Everything went so smoothly and we got so many compliments on the flow of the evening and the staff. It was truly an amazing day and we wouldn’t change a thing! I will say not to let yourself over complicate things. They run such a smooth system there that sometimes it feels too easy (haha) but let yourself relax a little! They are good at what they do! Taylor and her team were such a gift to us. Highly recommend.

Don't get me started on the food, it was sooo good! All of our guests (literally all of them) ranted and raved about how good it was! We had a lot of out of state family and they also stated that it was very convenient for them with the shuttle. 20/10 would recommend this venue!

al. The entire process was very smooth. We had our rehearsal dinner at the hotel, buffet style in Woolley's north. We did the Italian buffet and Woolley's knocked the food out of the park. The chicken marsala melted in my mouth, and all of our guests loved it. It was so convenient to just stay the night as well before the busy wedding day started. We were able to be in the new bridal suite, and it looks so lovely, and perfect getting-ready space. The groomsmen got ready in our honeymoon suite because it was HUGE. It had a living room area with a couch and then a room with a circular table, so they were comfortable in there. There was a perfect flow from the ceremony into the atrium, to the cocktail space in Woolley, and then to the reception in the Itasca room. The buffet was so good, we are still getting compliments on how good the chicken and salmon were. Not to mention the awesome catering staff that came with it. Then to top if off, we were able to work with Taylor who is so on top of everything, she really made our experience great!! If we were able to do it all again, we'd definitely do it again here. 13/10 would recommend!

Taylor had even checked in the day of, making sure I was ready and if there was anything else I needed prior to the ceremony. What really made it even better is that Taylor did what she should to make sure my day turned out for us and our happiness, I did have an uninvited guest show up to the ceremony and Taylor was ready to escort them out if need to, just so our day turned out perfect. I honestly could not thank Taylor enough for all the help and work she had done to make our day just that much better!! I am definitely reaching out to her for our future events.

This was the perfect place for our wedding. We had the pleasure of meeting the Taylor in the events department. She was pleasant and listened to what we were thinking. She showed ...
us two small rooms they were wonderful rooms but just a bit to big. Our wedding guest list was 20 or so folks. We asked about a small space that was part of the restaurant. It was the perfect space. It was small, cozy and inviting. She said yes we can make this space available. Every detail was done with great care. I gave Taylor my vision and she made it happen. Day of my wedding Taylor was there making sure it was perfect like it was her own wedding. The wait staff for our dinner were spot on. Those two gals were warm, friendly. Had the its your day and we will take care of everything you and your guests need. Now let's talk about the food. OMG over the top good. We wanted to let our guess order from the menu. Taylor suggested picking 4 main courses and that was the right move. She designed a beautiful menu that matched the colors in our wedding and our guess got to choose. It was served hot and we all had our meals at the same time. From salad to dessert no one was skipped or waited while others were eating. The food was cooked perfect. We had steak,chicken, pork chops and salmon. Folks are still talking about Woodys food and that they will go there again for dinner. The hotel was clean and folks behind the front desk we kind and friendly. And top it off the free breakfast was wonderful had something for everyone. I can't say enough about this hotel and our wedding experience. Taylor stayed in communications we me from beginning to end with out pressure or stress. She made sure ever detail was met.

We had many guests fly in from out of state and they didnt have to rent a car, just took the shuttle and it worked out perfectly.
The next morning they had set a room aside for us to eat in and to visit with guests before departing and the staff had gathered up the remaining flowers, cupcakes, napkins and etc. So we could take it all home. We felt pampered and so appreciate ALL that everyone there did for us.

enne Halterman, was amazing and so fun to work with (friendly, efficient, organized, very accommodating, excellent communicator and was always timely in her return of emails and phone calls!). She's a new family friend!! Her Food and Beverage Manager and staff were extremely friendly and so accommodating with "anything" we ever needed throughout the entire weekend (always with a genuine smile and great attitude)! We had the rehearsal dinner, wedding in their atrium and reception in the gorgeous ballroom, as well as, opening gift reception the next morning (all at the hotel) which was SO SLICK! Our guests never had to drive anywhere else! The hotel rooms were very clean and spacious. The Bridal Suite (which had an attached sleeping room next to it) was perfect! And of course the airport right across from the hotel was extremely convenient for our out of town guests!! The front desk staff was amazingly efficient and friendly! We were also so very impressed that "all" of their employees (food servers, housekeeping, front desk, sales, maintenance, etc.) always had a smile on their faces and were so very respectful, which proved to us that it's a great place to work! We would absolutely schedule another wedding/event at that hotel! A huge thank you, from our families, to everyone at the Embassy Suites Minneapolis Airport for a job well-done!

meet with the hotels catering manager (wedding planner in our book), we knew this was where we had to get married. From start to finish, color combos, questions and concerns... Allie knew it all! It was like planning our dream day with a best friend.
She got to know us first and then gave us some background on herself. Her genuine thoughtfulness and ideas where something we took to heart. You could tell she wanted the best for us. From budget spending, food choices and DJ preference, we had no doubt in our mind that she was thinking about our taste and best interest in mind.
If you're looking for someone who:
-Understands your needs
-Listens to EVERYTHING you say
-Helps you budget and get organized
-AND fits everything you "must have" into your spending limit while also making you feel valued...
ALLIE should be your first choice at the Embassy Suites/Minneapolis Airport. We loved every minute we spent at this hotel.

The key to success is planning. Allie Zimmer made everything so easy. She helped us plan all three events and they all went off flawlessly.
Some initial concerns about the pillars in the ballroom were quickly erased as they were simply a non factor. The staff was first class and the food was excellent.
My wife and I commented over and over how many of our guests complimented the staff on friendliness of service and quality of food.

ful suggestions/ideas, too! The food was great, the decorations were beautiful, and we didn't have to worry about taking care of a thing. Allie had it all down!
We really appreciated how the Embassy was truly a "one-stop-shop" for the reception. They took care of the food, they handled the wedding cake, they even had an easy way to add on the DJ. If we'd needed, they would have totally covered centerpieces/bouquets, too. It was worth every penny to not worry about last-minute details or finding "the best" deal somewhere on something.
Having a complimentary room the night of the event was a huge relief, too, and setting up a room block for guests was super easy. (You can even save x amount before you get charged for no-shows, which is awesome!) We upgraded to the corner suite (ooh la la) for only $20 and it was SO worth it. Treat yourself and do it, too!
The only thing we'd say is if you want a big dance floor, make sure to really stress that because it sort of got lost in translation for us, so we couldn't really dance our first big waltz.
But overall, we are so, so happy with our reception and especially with Allie, who is absolutely *amazing*. 5/5 stars

The only complaint of the night was that they didn’t leave the s’mores bar out long enough. Our bartender did a MAGNIFICENT job as well. He was quick to get people through the line and made drinks to perfection. The DJ was also GREAT! He played the songs as discussed during planning and kept the dance floor full all night long.

I was the photographer for a wedding at the Embassy Suites and Allie was instrumental in gaining the needed space for the important shots for the family. As a hired hand myself, I ...
was able to see her personality and attention to detail make the experience enjoyable for the guests. She spent the night hustling, serving and interacting with the guests.

We got married over the weekend here with reception and ceremony in the atrium. It was beautiful and everything went off without a hitch. We did go through three different wedding ...
coordinators and that was a little annoying but Jasmine did a great job with all of our details even though there were a few hiccups due to so much employee turnover. We were not able to have any access to the ballroom to set up prior to the wedding but Jasmine let us set everything up in another room and they moved it for us. Overall the food was great, the service was great and the hotel was awesome! We did the package deal which I loved. (It came with cake, DJ, 2 kegs, cocktail hour, food, and uplighting!)

We had our reception here, as well as our guest room block for after the wedding. The only negative thing I have to say is that we booked our date a little over a year in advance, ...
and within that year this venue went through 3 different event coordinators. Each time a new person was hired we had to meet with them again to rehash the wedding details that had already been planned. Aside from that, everything else was fantastic! Our guests are still raving about how it was the most fun wedding reception they've been to and how beautiful the ballroom was.
We went with a wedding package that included catering, cake, and the DJ in the pricing. I was a little worried that since we were coordinating it all through the Embassy Suites that we would end up with sub-par vendors for the cake and DJ, but we definitely didn't! The bakery they go through is Buttercream in St. Paul - best cake I have ever tried! And the DJ was from Midwest Sound and he did a fantastic job! Our guests danced the entire time. The food is catered through the Wooley's restaurant on-site and it was amazing - even the vegan meals were delicious. The only limitation with our package was that we could only choose chicken entrees or pay more for something else or to have multiple entree options. We opted to stick with the chicken and our guests still loved it.
Brittany is the final coordinator we ended up working with and she is fantastic! She was completely on board with my vision and was able to set up a lot of the DIY pieces I made for the wedding myself (including centerpieces). She was extremely responsive and helpful, and she also uses some great tools to help you really picture what the room will look like on the big day. There was a slight hiccup with our billing after the wedding and she as also very fast to response and resolve the problem.
Overall, I am so glad we chose this venue and would highly recommend it to future brides!

We had our reception at the Embassy Suites Hotel, and we loved every minute of it! Although our first wedding planner had to leave in the middle of planning, Brittany took over and...
made it a seamless transition. She made sure to let me know that there were so many options that we could do for food, DJ, decorations and drinks. She was very willing to accommodate our wishes on things that we wanted to do differently. We felt very valued while we were there, and I would highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a well planned reception!

Embassy Suites Minneapolis Airport was the venue for our ceremony and reception as well as an over night stay for several out of town guests. It was the perfect one stop shop! Our ...
ceremony was in the beautiful atrium which provided an outdoor feel without having to worry about the weather. Following the ceremony, the guests moved right down the hall into the ballroom. Heather Walsh, the Social Catering Manager was FANTASTIC to work with. She was always friendly, organized, and responded within a day to my many questions throughout the process. The entire catering staff was extremely friendly and helpful with anything we needed throughout the reception as well as the gift opening breakfast the next morning. We had a beautiful and perfect wedding day and much credit is given to all the staff here! I highly recommend the Embassy Suites for ceremony and/or reception!

Planning process & Misc.:
Embassy Suites was my first and only choice after seeing their venues.Sarah and her team did amazing and made it a stress-free day for us. From the...
9 month's I spent planning I felt like a priority. Sarah or someone from her team was always around to respond to my emails or phone calls with questions or concerns(Or when we were constantly changing our mind on things!) They worked with us to make sure we were sticking to our budget. Both Sarah and her manager made us both feel at ease when we cut it a little close for comfort. For coming in just a few months before the wedding and taking over her department she did very well! Both my husband and I were very impressed with everything from the food to the service we received from her wait-staff. They were always very attentive and accommodating. Making sure every detail was covered and done in the most professional matter.
Food:
We had NY strip steaks and Chicken Piccatta with Yellow Yukon potatoes, and Mixed veggies with rolls, salads, and hosted snacks.Food was done to perfection, they accommodated my flower girl who had allergies to Milk, Eggs, and Nuts, and made sure to check with my photographers and DJ if they were hungry(which was really sweet and unexpected. +Bonus!)
Atrium:
They made sure to have it nice and clean and free of any clutter. The chairs were set up on time for rehearsal at 11am and made sure to check in to make sure things were running smoothly(which they were).
Reception area:
Turned out beautifully! The napkins matched our colors perfectly. My guests commented on how beautiful everything looked all night long! When it got warm from all the guests moving about the wait-staff made sure to open a door to help us cool it down.. Even went as far as bringing in fans to help circulate air around the room.
We can't begin to thank the team at Embassy for everything they did to take the worries and stress off of me on our special day. I would recommend them to any bride who is planning a wedding by herself. You will not be disappointed!

Planning process was made more difficult than it should have been - they didn't tell me until my final appointment that they double booked half the space reserved for an overlap of...
an hour, then told me I was lucky to not have been completely cancelled. Not exactly what I needed a week before the wedding. Overall it worked out but didn't appreciate that unnecessary drama. Planning process is simplified by working with the coordinator.
Guests had issues booking the group rate - even my room rate was messed up. Hotel rooms were incredibly warm and most guests had to open the windows and listen to the planes fly in and out all night. Some guests were in rooms were security or other things got in the way of opening windows so it got pretty uncomfortable.
Service the day of was great, especially the serving staff. Received many compliments.
