Inn Marin

he arrangements and helping in coming up with solutions when any hiccup in our planning arose. We worked mostly with Kate, a wonderful event coordinator who helped keep on track as to what needed to be figured out by when and offered helpful suggestions and ideas that other couples did. She was organized and helped everything run smooth before and during the wedding. It was such a pleasure and she felt like my best friend in the process - the support I realized I very much needed while planning a big wedding of 150 people especially getting close to the day. She kept my spirits up and offered to help with miscellaneous task to help free up my time. She made sure my requests were made and saw everything was followed through that we had talked about. She assured me that all the vendors would have an easy time with the various tasks they needed to do and she communicated with them to make sure all would run smooth. The weekend of the wedding was wonderful. All our guests staying for the weekend were blown away by how beautiful and perfect the setting was for us to all get together and catch up and enjoy a lengthened celebration with one another. For me, I loved how easy it made everything - to have all our rooms there to get ready in and do any last minute preparations and still have time to visit with guests before the wedding. A great band was playing we got to dance to the night before which just topped off a great night after our rehearsal dinner. The day of the wedding, the courtyard was even more beautiful than I had pictured it. Many guests commented on what a perfect venue it was. The touches of the gentle sunlight fell through the tree and the overall softness of everything made it feel like a dream. The greenery surrounding the buildings made a beautiful backdrop for our photography. With regards to pricing, the Inn Marin was quite reasonable. What was sent to us by email was still a bit expensive for us but when we met they explained that they could work with the menu to make it more affordable for us. The food was incredible. Again people told us over and over again how delicious it was. We chose the Flat Iron Steak, Mahi Mahi with a mango Fruit Salsa (which was another option not on the menu that you can request) and the Grilled Vegetable Napoleon. I had a tough time deciding what to order because it was all so incredibly delicious. If you have concerns as to the freeway being so close, nobody noticed it. It felt like it was miles away during our wedding. If you get a complimentary suite (if you have 15 rooms booked - fyi 2 night minimum), I would suggest trading it. I gave the suite to my sister as it was a bit of a trek from the courtyard - especially when you’re in a wedding dress. The suite wasn’t any different than the other hotel rooms except that there was a spare room for us to get ready for. So we had our hair dresser here, but everything else we wanted to take place in the courtyard. So my groom and I also stayed in a room at the courtyard to make it easy and quick to get around (or if you need to go to your room during the wedding it’s really nice that it’s right there - even though we had all weekend it still went by so fast and I wanted to miss as little of it as possible). Highly recommended!

DAY! The food was catered from Ricky's which is a restaurant attached to the hotel. INCREDIBLE. We had steak, chicken, sauteed veggies, and a delicious mashed potato dish. two thumbs up! Our wedding coordinator, Tricia, was phenomenal. She arranged every detail from start to finish! (She works for the Inn Marin as their coordinator) I am so happy with how everything turned out. She had an awesome vendor for everything from the Dj to the Florist to the bakery, and everything was perfect. I never felt stressed or unorganized, because Tricia was always two steps ahead of me providing me with things she needed from me, while she did the rest! I would definitely recommend her!!

experience from our first meeting with Lora. and it continued throughout the whole wedding planning. Inn Marin's shining star is Lora Salfi and her staff compliments her ultimate goal to make the wedding you and your fiance wish for a reality. We look forward to celebrating our anniversary at Inn Marin for many years to come!

ed by Rickey's, was amazing. Best chicken piccata and salmon I think I've ever had, defiantly better than I expected from a wedding buffet table. Best of all was Lora, the on site coordinator. She made sure we paired all night long without a worry and even brought us beers in the hot tub at 1 am!
