We had our wedding here on 09/14/24 and it was the absolute best day of our lives!
The entire staff at the venue was 100% completely amazing. Without flaw. On point.
The set up, t...
he service, the accommodations, just absolutely every single little thing was completely perfect.
The maître de , Jenn was unreal. She was so incredible. I cannot say that enough. The best service I have ever had.
The service team was on their game ALL NIGHT. Never missed a beat.
Our coordinators, Alex & Missy were perfect from start to finish with clear and promp communication.
The food was phenomenal!
I can never thank our team and the staff enough for everything that made our special day magical.
Thank you, thank you!!!
If you are questioning if you want to stay here or get married here, JUST DO IT! You will not regret it!
The Hilton Garden Inn in Hamilton New Jersey was a perfect venue for our event. Our small 60 guest wedding was held in the garden patio area, which was a perfect setting for our r...
eception. Alexandria, the catering manager coordinated our event with detailed enthusiasm and kindness. The entire staff was great and everything went off without a hitch. And being able to have my guests from out of town be on site the whole time made everything so much easier. No shuttle buses required!! I highly recommend the Hilton Garden Inn for any event, large or small.
We had both our ceremony and reception at HGI in Hamilton NJ. We could not have asked for a better venue and team. Alexandria and Missy were my contacts throughout the wedding plan...
ning process - they are super nice, responsive, and knowledgeable. Anyone who is looking to do everything in one place (which made it very convenient for our guests), we highly recommend looking into this venue/hotel. The Garden Patio is whimsical and comfortable, the ballroom has been updated. Our day was simply magical and the attention we received from the staff was incredible.
Out of all the hotels close to our venue, Hilton Garden Inn was the most accommodating! They allowed us to have a large room block and add rooms as needed. We also had our rehearsa...
l dinner and breakfast in their garden inn patio, which is a beautiful barn! The food was amazing and we loved all the different options they provided us with.
I reserved the Dublin conference room to get ready from 7-3 and that space was perfect for a large wedding party to get their hair/makeup done.
We did our after party TGI Friday’s which was in the parking lot of the hotel. This was super convenient as guests were able to walk back to their rooms at the end of the night.
My husband and I got married here, and we couldn’t be happier with our experience. We had our ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and send-off brunch here. Rachel Brand was incredi...
ble through the planning stages and day of, as was the entire staff. Our guests raved about the wedding, food, and experience. We are so grateful to have celebrated our marriage here, everything was perfect! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
My husband Jeff and I had our cocktail hour/reception, and send-off breakfast at HGI Hamilton this past Saturday. We also reserved a block of rooms for our guests. Everything was a...
bsolutely perfect! Rachel was our maitre d/point of contact for our reception. As soon as I met her, I knew that I wanted to work with her! She is extremely down to earth, friendly, and organized. She answered every question I had, and was so helpful! The night of the reception, she was everywhere, making sure that things were perfect. Helena helped me with the room block. She made sure that we had wheelchair accessible rooms, and if any issues came up with booking, she took care of it herself. It was so nice to have everything (other than our ceremony, which was at a church), in one place. Our guests knew that, once they were at the party, they didn't have to go anywhere. I would HIGHLY recommend HGI Hamilton!!!
The Hilton Garden Inn was a fabulous place to get married! It was the first venue we looked at and thought "wait can't pick the first one right?" So we dutifully looked at other pl...
aces but kept coming back to the HGI. After booking, the rest of the process was easy! We were kept well informed and any questions we had were answered promptly. The day off went off without a hitch (that, as the bride, I ever knew about anyway!) The staff were all so attentive and friendly and the food was out of the world!! Three months later people are still talking about what a great time they had and how delicious everything was! I would absolutely recommend the Hilton Garden Inn to anyone!
The staff of the Hilton couldn't have been any better! Rachael and Heather may the entire process simple and stress free! Pricing was extremely fair and they were able to meet all ...
of my wishes that were not included in the package. The venue was beautiful and accommodated my guests perfectly. I would recommend this venue to anyone looking for a beautiful spacious setting at a more than reasonable price!!

ing process and day of enjoyable and impeccable. We would also like to give a big shout out to our bartender Marco who was extremely professional and took very good care of all our guests. The venue was affordable, everyone raved about how delicious the food was and the room was breathtaking for our special day. Thanks for all you did and we highly recommend this venue for any wedding!

dating throughout the entire process and the whole weekend. The rooms were great and the brunch went very well. The staff did a great job making sure that all of our guests were comfortable and had what they needed.

A big thank you to the HGI Hamilton team. We had all of our guest stay at the HGI for our wedding, and we hosted the farewell brunch in the garden of the hotel. Helena, David and D...

We had a great experience at this Hilton Garden Inn. All of the workers did everything they could to help me and my husband throughout the entire reception. I also had ALOT of co...
mpliments about the food that was served. Specifically the steak was pointed out multiple times to be the best they ever had. We would highly recommend a wedding here and they are willing to work with you so try to work out a compromise if you don't like the initial pricing list as this is what we did for a Saturday afternoon wedding.
Beautiful room! Staff did a wonderful job
The space inside and out was absolutely gorgeous, but there was a huge problem when it came to booking guest rooms at the hotel. We were promised a block of 20 rooms minimum from ...
Thursday night-Monday morning, but the room block was not held like it should have been and all but three of my guests had problems getting a room.
I couldn't be happier with the Hilton Garden Inn. We chose the location due to the easy access for our guests: ceremony, reception, and hotel accommodations all in one. At the t...
ime, the catering company Marsilios was attached to this venue, and they pretty much ran the day on a great schedule and made sure everyone had everything they needed. Valerie and Olga from Marsilios are amazing. They let you know that this is YOUR DAY and they will do anything to keep you happy.
The gazebo grounds outside are gorgeous in the summer. There is a highway nearby that has the potential to make some noise during the ceremony, but as the bride I did not hear any intrusive car or truck sounds. However that may have been because I wasn't focusing on it. The covered tent for the cocktail hour is amazing. A truly magical hidden garden feel. And the reception hall is spacious and accommodating. The catering staff is wonderful. I wish I was getting married again so I can utilize this place once more!
We chose the Hilton Garden Inn of Hamilton, NJ because it was the perfect scenario for our family. We were able to perform the ceremony, reception and stay the night all at one pl...
ace! No need to worry about transportation from one place to another! From the very beginning of the planning process, the staff at the Hilton and the catering by Marsilio's were cooperative and helpful! They answered every single question that I e-mailed them (and I had alot!) without making me feel like an annoyance. The entire time we had planned on having our wedding outside by the gazebo. Unfortunately, it rained the entire day before and the morning of, so we had to switch to the tent (where cocktail hour was going to be held). The transition from the gazebo to the tent was very smooth, as well as the switch from ceremony to cocktail hour within the tent! We were beyond happy with our total experience!
Overall, I loved using this vendor. The service was great and the food was amazing. The only reason it did not get 5 stars is because it is a little complicated with who to talk to...
about what information. Since the caterers work at a different location, you are unsure whether to contact the hotel sales team or the catering team. If they can get that figured out, it would be the perfect spot!
We were very pleased with our selection of the Hilton Garden Inn Hamilton fro our reception site! Valerie and Maggie are very efficient coordinators who made sure all of our detai...
ls and concerns were addressed. Our food was delicious, and the hotel was able to provide excellent accommodations to our family and friends!
I had my wedding reception at the Hilton Garden Inn in Hamilton, NJ in October 2010. The site was beautiful, from the outdoor, covered white tent area where we had our cocktail ho...
ur to the reception hall. The site has a true garden feel. It even has a beautiful gazebo on-site, which is the perfect setting for a ceremony or for pictures. The food was amazing and the catering staff was so elegant and professional. We chose a beef and a fish entree. Both were succulent, well-seasoned and cooked to perfection. We got so many compliments on the meal. Lastly, Valerie, our coordinator was great. She was easy to contact, very accommodating and friendly. I would absolutely recommend this venue to anyone looking for a deal in South/Central Jersey.
