Hilton Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort

My husband :) and I just got married at the Hilton Ft. Lauderdale Beach Resort this past weekend, and I can't say enough wonderful things about it! From our first meeting to every step of planning along the way, the Hilton staff was friendly, accommodating, flexible, and organized. From the start, the Hilton was flexible with ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception locations at the hotel allowing us to change closer to the wedding date based on final guest count. We did signature welcome drink on the rotunda, cocktail hour on the BalQony, ceremony on the pool deck, and reception in the ballroom. The hotel provided signs for guests. The food was FANTASTIC, and guests raved about the entire weekend. We spent the day after the wedding at the pool which was just an extra special day to visit with guests. I will post photos when we get back from our photographer!

My daughter had originally planned to get married in Maui and COVID restrictions forced a change in venue. My daughter still had her heart set on a wedding near the beach and the Hilton Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort did not disappoint. From beginning to end we were so happy we had our daughter's wedding at the Hilton Resort. Katie the Catering Sales Manager was so communicative and flexible both pre wedding and on the day itself when rain put a damper on the big day. The last minute switch to another location in the hotel was not disappointing in any way. Steve the banquet manager, Jenni the bartender (who our guests loved!), Edgar, Ali, Ramone, Postigo...I hope I haven't forgotten anyone because they all made our daughter's wedding a day we will never forget. The food was unbelievably good, not at all like standard banquet food. Guests raved about the appetizers, Mahi Mahi and Steak entrees. Hilton's open bar packages are reasonable for the quality and choice of beverages offered. We were able to do some of our own decorating and we appreciated the Hilton's willingness to let us do that. No one says the wedding day went perfectly but frankly with the Hilton I can truly say it was perfect in every way!

I am a perfectionist and the fact that my husband and I picked Hilton Ft Lauderdale Beach Resort - might be a special venue indeed! :) Rotunda is like a piece of paradise sent to couples to have a unique ceremony at. Besides breathtaking ocean view, the hotel staff was very friendly and helpful to us and our guests. A special thank to Abigail, our event planner! She was very responsive and supportive from the beginning to the end organizing our wedding. Abigail made sure that our wedding went the way we wanted and it did indeed! Thank you Abigail for making our special day really special and flawlessly organized!

From the moment I saw the rotunda at this property, I KNEW that's where I was meant to walk down the aisle. As soon as I showed it to my fiance, he agreed. Truly one of the best choices we made! Not only is the venue breathtakingly beautiful, but the food was delicious, and working with Abigail is wonderful! She was always prompt in replying to my questions and requests throughout the planning process (and on the day of), and she found ways to make sure every bit of my dream wedding came true. Our guests loved it as much as we did. THANK YOU to Abby and the entire team at the Hilton.

Couldn't have been happier with our choice of venue for our wedding ceremony and reception on November 11. Abigail, Faxon and the entire Hilton team were absolutely amazing and accommodating the entire weekend! I can't thank them enough for how responsive they were to everything before, during and after our wedding making sure everything was running smoothly and perfect. They completely exceeded our expectations. The venue itself was absolutely beautiful as well. Thanks so much for making our wedding a dream come true!!!

September 17th we got married at the Hilton and like so many couples before us have said, it truly was the best day of our lives. We were originally supposed to get married on the 10th, but due to Hurricane Irma we had a change in plans. A week before we got married, the entire first floor of the hotel had been flooded, there were sea crabs on the front sliding doors, they had lost power for days and we were freaking out just a little bit. Not to mention A1A was entirely covered in sand from the surge so we couldn't even drive on it. By the time A1A opened back up and we were able to get to the hotel, we walked in to hundreds of fans and teams of employees cleaning up the hotel. I have to say we had our doubts, but we wanted to get married so we took the risk and secured the 17th. I am happy to say the Hilton, John Allan, Abigail and their entire team exceeded our expectations. They were communicating with us from 7am to sometimes 11pm, giving us updates and assuring us that they were taking care of everything. They really set our minds at ease. We originally chose this venue because we have shared so many happy memories such as staycations with family and even our engagement. We also selected the Hilton when Brittany was on board and we felt so comfortable that there wasn't a doubt in our minds that we were going to have our wedding there. Brittany left and Abigail came on board and I have to say that Abigail did an amazing job and took such good care of us. She went above and beyond! We had our wedding weekend at the hotel and all of our guests were treated like VIP. Every single staff member had a smile on their face, knew our names and were there for anything and everything we could possibly need. Considering what Florida had just been through, aside from the fans that were drying the carpets you would never know. Our wedding was a complete success! The food at the cocktail hour and reception was incredible! The service during dinner was timed perfectly and everyone received their plate at the same time. The hotel is beautiful, the food is delish but the service is what we can't stop raving about. For us it was not just about our wedding day but our wedding weekend. With all of our out of town guests and our large Florida family, our wedding weekend experience was perfect. Thank you team Hilton for pulling this off for us. The way your team was able to pull this together and get the property ready is remarkable, and exceeded our expectations. Your entire staff was devoted to making our dreams a reality and words cannot express how truly grateful we are.

We recently got married at the Hilton. It was the best weekend of our lives!!!! Brittany Manzie and her staff go above and beyond to please their brides and grooms. Brittany recommended other great vendors in the area and made sure everything was perfect for our special day. She checked on us all day and helped us with so many things from brunch plans to rehearsal dinner locations to back up plans (our wedding was during the week of hurricane Mathew). She even texted and called us on her own time to see how we were doing!

My husband and I are extremely happy we choose to have our February wedding reception at the Hilton Fort Lauderdale Beach. The staff did all they could to ensure our Day was absolutely perfect! The cocktail hour venue balcony is amazing and really impressed our guests. The entire venue is clean and inviting which our out of town guests appreciated. It was a pleasure working with their catering manager Brittany. She is helpful and quick to respond. The food was also a highlight and multiple guests commented on how much they enjoyed their appetizers and meals. We definitely recommend hosting your wedding here, we want to do it all again!!!

Brittany and the Hilton staff were amazing! Brittany was there for us answering any and all questions throughout the planning process and was there for us the day of. While we did end up having some rain which moved our ceremony service and cocktail hour inside, Brittany ensured that everything was as perfect and planned as could be. She helped the day of with coordinating vendors and making sure they were on time - she also made sure that everything was set up as we had requested. The location was fantastic. Most of our family and friends were out of town so it was very convenient to have all the wedding events at the one location. We even held our rehearsal dinner at S3 on the first floor which every raved about. We were able to hold a wedding party at the pool the day before as well which was a nice touch for everyone traveling. I could not have imagined a more perfect day and highly recommend the Hilton and Brittany.

Our wedding was spectacular! Brittany Manzie and the team at the Hilton were fantastic to work with in planning our wedding. The food was excellent and the outdoor venue was the perfect location for our wedding with the amazing views of the ocean and coastline.

We had our wedding here, and it was absolutely beautiful. We looked at tons of hotel venues in Miami and Ft Lauderdale, and this was by far the best. The views were amazing, the hotel was great, and everyone was nice and easy to work with (especially Brittany).The rotunda was an incredible place for our small ceremony and we were able to have our reception outside on the balqony overlooking the ocean.It was EXACTLY what we wanted. You won't find a better place for a 50-70 person wedding in South Florida .

The Hilton Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort was the perfect place to get married!! We got married in the new Routonda area and it was perfect for pictures with our circular seating. Catering Manager Brittany was great to work with and she definitely knows how to produce a smooth wedding. She was very responsive to my emails and communicated with me to make sure all the details were taken care of. On wedding day, Brittany took care of all the details and made sure that everything was running smoothly. We had total trust in her!! As part of our package we had a wonderful tasting with the chef to pick our menu for the wedding. All the food was great! We really loved having a personal server the day of the wedding. She made sure that my husband and I always had something to drink or had food to snack on. She was wonderful! Our stay at the Hilton was also great. All the staff was super friendly and very attentive to us and all our guests. We couldn't have asked for a better experience. We are looking forward to staying there for our 1 year anniversary!

Brittany and her staff are absolutely wonderful! They go out of their way (and with a smile on their face) to make sure everything is exactly what you want! Don, the chef, is amazing as well! EXCELLENT food! We highly recommend the Hilton FTL Beach Resort. <3

We recently held our wedding at the Hilton Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort (8-15-15). The entire experience could not have been more memorable for both us and our guests. From the moment we checked in Ariel at the front desk made us feel very welcome. We were given a beautiful ocean view suite with a huge wrap around balcony. I did not hear a single complaint from any of our 80+ out of town guests staying at the property. Everyone loved the pool deck and beach access. Upon check-out Shane came to help assist with our luggage and made several trips with a smile on his face. The night of our wedding could not have been more perfect. Brittany Manzie, Catering Manager at the Hilton is absolutely amazing and we could not be more thankful for her. From the day we met her we felt comfortable and confident that she would do everything in her power to make our big day special. We live in Chicago so it was not easy to plan a long distance wedding but Brittany patiently answered all our questions and addressed all of our concerns in a very timely manner. She is so passionate about her work and was there to guide us every step of the way. Brittany not only ensured our complete satisfaction but she really took the time to make sure our families and our guests were taken care of as well. We also wanted to recognize Elaine who was assigned to look after us during the reception. She really went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. She even brought us appetizers while we were taking pictures so we did not go hungry. I would highly recommend Brittany and her talented team at the beautiful Hilton Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort.

The Hilton went above and beyond to make our wedding special. We didn't even need to hire a coordinator because Brittany was so incredibly helpful! The food was delicious, their service was impeccable, and they catered to everything we needed the entire time we stayed there. I would highly recommend getting married at the Hilton and working with Brittany and Anthony. You get so much bang for your buck!

This hotel surpassed my husband and my expectations. From the quality of service you receive by entering the hotel to the daily happenings of planning the wedding, the Hilton Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort is one of the greatest hotels out there. I didn't have a planner since I am used to event planning but the catering manager on location, Brittany Manzie, is really out of this world. She and her team really went above and beyond to make me feel like I was in good hands. I've planned many events before and saying that my own wedding was extremely successful because of the staff of the Hilton would be an understatement. When they sit you down in the first meeting and tell you that from the second you walk in, to the second you leave, you will feel like you own the hotel is totally true. I love every minute of my wedding experience and I owe it to this beautiful hotel and their amazing staff. I can never thank them enough. For those of you who are beginning to plan, just a few words about my wedding. I did a Friday night wedding, Thursday night rehearsal dinner all on location. The rehearsal dinner was in the hotel restaurant Ilios and it was delicious. We stayed Thursday through Sunday and enjoyed every second. They also offer you a complimentary stay on your 1-year anniversary which we are already looking forward to!

We recently had our wedding reception at the Hilton Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort. WOW! Where do I even begin?! As you can see from pictures the venue is absolutely beautiful! Brittany Manzie (catering manager) was beyond AMAZING! From day one she was so helpful and thoughtful. We visited several venues for our wedding reception and Brittany won us over immediately. Brittany and the entire staff truly helped make my dream wedding come true! The staff was so friendly and welcoming to all of our guests. I would without a doubt highly recommend this venue!! One Very Happy Bride!!

The Hilton gave my husband and I our dream wedding! From the very first meeting with Brittany, the catering manger, we were sold! Not only is the hotel so beautiful, but you cannot get any better than being on an ocean backdrop for your cocktail hour. The hotel has a very intimate feel and they give you all the space you need for your wedding. Everyone at the Hilton went above and beyond for us. They took care of every detail that slipped my mind and they where there for us the whole way. They helped us get through what could have been a very stressful time, and Brittany always made it enjoyable. The hotel rooms are absolutely stunning, and the hotel took such great care of all our out of town guests. I can’t say enough good things about them. Looking back I can say we wouldn’t have had the wedding we had without the help of Brittany and Faxon!

Last month my husband and I had our wedding at the Hilton. Out of all the vendors and individuals we worked with, Brittany Manzie (along with the staff at the Hilton) was simply fantastic. She accommodated all our the requests we had, was highly responsive, a pleasure to work with and when we had challenges with our caterers, she worked with us to resolve the issues meanwhile always putting our needs first. She was really on top of everything! Our friends and family had a great time and commented how nice all the rooms and view was. We were really happy with how everything turned out and just wanted to say thank you to everyone at the Hilton for helping us celebrate and make weekend stress free!

I got married here in December 2013. From day one it was wonderful. Brittany was incredible, she was always quick to respond and was really supportive throughout. It was very well organized and went smoothly. I was extremely happy with the experience and i can positively say not one thing went wrong; it was for sure the best night of our lives!! The venue is absolutely beautiful, the view, the reception room, the bridal suite, everything was breathtaking. The food was also really great. I would definitely recommend this venue to other brides!

We had our rehearsal dinner, wedding day, and brunch and everything was absolutely amazing!! Our ceremony and cocktail hour held by the pool terrace overlooking the ocean view was absolutely gorgeous!! Our guests kept talking about the delicious food and were so impressed with the top notch service from staff. As the bride, I could not believe how attentive the wait staff was during the reception! Brittany Manzie, the catering manager, was so great to work with! The hotel itself is really beautiful and all of our out of town guests enjoyed it so much that they want to come back! We were so happy we chose this as our wedding venue and will definitely be coming back for vacation! The Hilton exceeded all of our expectations! Would highly recommend!!

There is nothing bad I could say. My wedding at the Hilton Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort was beyond perfect! The whole team was so helpful and made sure it went off without a hitch. And the room blocking came with prices YOU CANNOT GET EVER IN FORT LAUDERDALE! Which made guests very very happy. Also, I am pretty sure every guest came up to me and said it was the best wedding food they have ever had! Not to mention how beautiful the resort is which made for amazing pictures! Worth every penny, I would choose them again and recommend them to everyone! Great great great!

We had an incredible wedding at the Hilton. Everything turned out exactly as we had hoped for. All the people who worked at the hotel made us feel so special and were so accommodating to all of our needs. From hotel accommodations, to the food, to the magical atmosphere we could not have been happier!

After checking out about 9 venues in the Fort Lauderdale area for our daughter's wedding, we decided on the Hilton Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort. We chose it partly because of the location and the ammenities of the hotel but once we met Brittany Manzie, the catering manager, we were sold. She was the ultimate professional and honestly, when the night of the wedding came, my daughter and I didn't have to give the evening a second thought. Brittany made it the best, most relaxing, fabulous night of our lives and even beyond our expectations. She was always helpful and took all of the stress associated with planning a major milestone in your child's life, away. We were almost able to be guests at our own event, knowing that Brittany was in control. The weekend went off without a snag...not one...Decor perfect, food amazing and, even the weather cooperated for all of our out of town quests so they were able to enjoy the beach, pool and Florida for the weekend. I can't thank Brittany enough for making the wedding we dreamed about, come true. It was the best. I wish we could do it all again!

I got married 3 weeks ago and our guests are STILL talking about our wedding! I could have never imagined my wedding to be SO perfect, but it absolutely was at the Hilton Ft. Lauderdale Beach Resort! Thanks to the most amazing catering manager, Brittany Manzie, my wedding was flawless. Brittany was friendly, professional and responsive and stayed on top of everything with me, making sure no stone was left unturned with everything from the cocktail hour food to the hotel room block reservations. She was an angel throughout the entire process and my wedding was a true result of her hard work. She treated my wedding as if it was her own and I knew I was in good hands from the start! I couldn't have imagined a more perfect wedding thanks to Brittany and I'm SO thrilled that I chose to have my wedding at the Hilton Ft. Lauderdale Beach Resort. It was a dream come true.

We were disappointed with our interactions with the wedding coordinator at this site.

I am from MD and planned most of my wedding via email or text (thank you, technology). In my search for vendors I truly relied on theknot.com and this is where I found the Hilton Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort (HFBR). Boy, am I grateful! It was February 2013 when I first met Brittany Manzie for a venue consultation. After 3 previous disappointing venue consultations and 1 so-so consultation, I was hoping that this would be the place. From the moment we walked into the Hilton Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort they made Chris (husband now) and I feel like VIPs. Brittany was able to give us that wedding venue search experience that every bride dreams of. She started off by offering us drinks and then we were off on a walk through the facility to see all the ceremony locations, cocktail areas and reception ballrooms (all beautiful). She then showed us the amazing bridal suite; the views are intoxicating. We ended our consultation in a small quaint showroom that gave us the feeling of what our ballroom could look like. Here she walked us through wedding packages and menu options; this is where I fell in LOVE with Brittany and the HFBR. Brittany is a wedding planning fairy godmother. She strives to give her brides a once in a lifetime experience. She is professional, kind, caring and patient. She responds to your emails extremely quickly, will take your calls on a drop of a dime and always with a smile on her face (at least it sounds like she's smiling through the phone). Brittany and her brides work hand in hand when planning the wedding. Any question or concern you have she will have an answer, options and a resolution for you. Brittany and her team (Faxon and Elaine) made our wedding weekend a dream come true. Brittany not only planned our wedding, but was able to put together a Welcome Party on the eve of our wedding just weeks before my wedding day (March 1, 2014). Not only are Brittany and her team amazing, the food at the Hilton Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort is out of this world. Not one of my guests had a complaint. From the Welcome Party finger foods to the plated wedding dinner, everyone has had only positive things to say. Being from MD and crab-cakes being our thing, the HFBR mini crab-cakes are to die for. If you are questioning choosing the Hilton Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort, STOP RIGHT NOW. Brittany and her team will give you the wedding you have always dreamed of and exceed your expectations. Faxon and Elaine are also exceptional; they each want to ensure everything is going well and are ready to cater to your every need. Brittany and her team make me want to get married every day. Brittany builds a strong bond with her brides, which makes you feel like you are losing a friend when checkout day arrives. I miss her so much and can't wait to head back to the HFBR to catch up with her, Faxon and Elaine. Thank you all for being part of the most special day in Chris' and my life. We love the HFBR catering staff!

Our wedding was beautiful and stress free thanks to Brittany Manzie and her crew at the Hilton. We were right on the beach. I can't be happier with how everything turned out. The food was GREAT (all our guests thought so as well), the service was beyond what we expected, and the hotel itself was very nice and clean. Our ceremony was on the beach and our reception was outside on the spa terrace. It was beautiful and so stressfree. When we arrived, we did a walk through, talked about the last minute details and Brittany took it from there. It took about 30 minutes and then I was enjoying the sun rays up until the big day. Brittany with the Hilton took care of everything. I wouldn't have done anything different!! Best decision...other than marrying my best friend! Hats off to Brittany, Faxon, the Chef, and everyone else that helped make our day so special and stress free!!!
