Amidst the Covid pandemic, multiple mandates, different for all counties in PA, Alex Jordan @ The Hilton Garden Inn- Southpointe, came through for my daughter’s wedding BIG TIME! After having to reschedule the date four times, my daughter said,... no more! She wanted the wedding to happen no matter what! The couple did hold an intimate ceremony on the initial date they chose for their wedding, May 3, 2020, in a backyard ceremony with immediate family, and then intended to hold their dream wedding, as planned August 9th. County mandates for their original venue would only allow 50 guests- and that number included the couple and bridal party. This was not acceptable to this new couple;as they had already had a small celebration, they wanted to be surrounded by all family and friends! 2 weeks prior to the date, our DJ, Chaz Hurlbut @ 2nd ll None( see review) gave us a contact at HGI- Alex Jordan. HGI-Southpointe, is in a different county, so different mandates. We worked with Alex and Carolyn for 2 weeks- this venue had purchased a huge event tent and it allowed for the number of invited guests! Alex went above and beyond, knowing that the wedding wouldn’t be “as planned” she made it as close to, if not BETTER than the couple had envisioned their special day! The menu perfectly matched the original plan, the decor was even more beautiful, more vintage than expected. The couple had their own centerpieces; vintage books for her (an English Teacher), vintage cameras and video cameras for him (videographer/cinematographer) and Alex displayed everything so elegantly!! The bridal party and some guests stayed the night before, as it was an early ceremony, 1115am and reception immediately following with brunch served. The day ran smoothly and perfectly - actually BETTER THAN PLANNED!The servers were spectacular!! Prior to the pandemic it was supposed to be a buffet, but Chef, Alex and the servers, following all covid rules, made it look effortless! I received so many compliments the day of the wedding and days and weeks after and we are still talking about it! For these 2 days, we were able to relax, have fun and be in the moment and not have to think about what’s going on in the world. Even though certain ways of doing things had to be “different” Alex put the couple, the guests, and this day at the forefront; and all done safely.
If you are a displaced bride, or find yourself having to reduce your guest count or make changes due to covid- I urge you to contact Alex Jordan! I promise you she will make your day as close to what you have planned... if not BETTER!!
