Having our reception was the best decision we made wedding wise. They were so easy to work with and they took care of SO much, it made my day a breeze. I really just showed up and ...
enjoyed my reception. The food was so delicious and the room was great. Kirsten, the event manager, is absolutely fabulous. We could not recommend this place more!
I had the best experience planning my wedding at the O.Henry with Lauren. The whole staff went above and beyond to ensure that we had everything we needed and our guests were well ...
taken care of. They made everything super easy for us and I could not have imagined my wedding at any other venue! We got married November 5 and all of our guests could not stop raving about the location (cloister garden and pavilion), the food, and the incredible staff.
The O,Henry was the best place I could have imagined having our wedding! With guests mostly from out of town, we wanted to find a local place to host our wedding, that would allow ...
guests to stay as well. The O.Henry was outstanding in every way - the planning process was made simple, the venue included everything which meant we didn't have to deal with other rental companies, the service the whole time leading up to and during the reception were awesome. The food was great, the people were nice and so accommodating... they made me and my husband feel like a queen and king.
The O'Henry hotel has a nice vintage charm. The following review is consistent with the Proximity Hotel as well because they are owned by the same people: If you are planning on ha...
ving your wedding on the weekend, they mandate that you reserve a block of at least 20 rooms at a "discounted" rate of $220/night. If at least 80% of those rooms are not used then you are responsible for paying the difference. For my family that would have equated to over $3,000 wasted since no one would really need a room. Also, they had poor responsiveness when I was inquiring about having my wedding there. It took over 2 business days for someone to write me back, and when I finally got a phone appointment with a sales associate they never called me. I had to call them after waiting 45 minutes. Third, if you expect to have a rehearsal for your ceremony, you have to pay yet another rental fee just to spend 30 minutes rehearsing (unless you are OK with not having the room set up, and random guests walking around.) That fee is around $2,000 by the way (the same cost as reserving the room for the actual ceremony.) The reception venue costs about $3,000. Lastly, to reserve your date, they charge you the full rental cost amount, as well as 20% of the projected food/alcohol costs. This amount is NON-REFUNDABLE. So God forbid something changes, you will be out at least $7,000. Due to the poor response time, and outlandish and unforgiving policies, I quickly turned away from this venue. Onto the next...
We had our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception in different spaces at the Proximity Hotel. The Proximity Hotel as a hotel excels in customer service and their wedding and events...
planning department does as well. Any idea that you could possibly have, the staff will help you make that happen. You may pay a premium for certain things, but they will help you bring your vision to life. Since so many things are included in your space rental, it makes the planning process very easy, especially when you live out of state and are planning from afar! The Proximity Hotel handles all things from linens, food, flowers, space set up, A/V technical, bar, etc. We worked with Hanna and Jacob for the planning aspects. They were both very helpful in Brenda is the in house florist for the Proximity. Her arrangements and bouquets are STUNNING! Jewel and Adam were our onsite staff during the wedding weekend and they made everything run so smoothly! The Proximity is not the cheapest wedding location in Greensboro, but you will get what you pay for. The were easy to work with during the planning period and executed everything more perfectly than I even envisioned.
We went here after the wedding for the night. Very special and luxurious. Great way to relax and wind down after a crazy evening.
We hosted our Rehearsal Dinner at the O.Henry Hotel along with a group room block for our out of town guests. The dinner was hosted in the Hawkins-Brown Room which was recently ...
renovated and made for a perfect back drop for us to host friends and family before our big day. The O.Henry Hotel & Green Valley Grill prides its self in customizing events and they surely did, as the Chef created for us a special pork dish that was not featured on their catering menu which was simply to die for! All of our guests raved about the food!
All of the staff in the hotel were friendly and helpful, especially one of the front desk managers, Mr. Blankenship. We rented our tuxedos from an out of town shop in Charlotte and I had one of my brides return since she lived there. When she returned the tuxes, she realized that she was one short. We contacted the hotel where it was left behind and they arranged for the tux to get back to a local shop that carried the same brand to have it sent back to the national warehouse … it was assuring to know that the hotel could take care of this for us since we were out of the country and it needed to be returned.
They truly played a big part in making our wedding weekend special!
We had both our rehearsal dinner and our reception at the O.Henry Hotel but in different rooms. The Pavilion Garden Room was the perfect place for our rehearsal dinner. We had a ...
plated meal that was warm and inviting to all of our closest family and wedding party.
Our reception was in the Caldwell Ballroom. We chose to do heavy hors devours instead of a sit down dinner for the reception. Everyone raved about the food and said they were full from all of the options that the O.Henry passed and served.
The staff listed to our vision and completely delivered. It was an elegant, candlelit affair, but it turned into a great atmosphere of dancing and laughter later in the night.
Our guests loved getting to go upstairs whenever the night was over to their rooms and enjoyed a complimentary breakfast the next day.
Overall fantastic weekend we'll never forget!
Wonderful food and service!
They did a beautiful job with our wedding and made planning so much easier. Stephanie and Jewel did a great job. The food (from Printworks Bistro) was divine. Highly recommended.

Wedding Day: a Sunday in the summer 2012

d, the accommodations, and the attention to detail were some of my favorite things about hosting our even there. The Proximity staff are awesome and take care of you throughout the event. If we needed something, we asked our awesome event coordinator Jewel about it and he took care of it no problem.
The Weaver Room served as a perfect backdrop for our reception photos. The sun set as we were dancing--made for some amazing shots that we will treasure forever.
The faux exit at the end where we dashed out in to a cab and circled the property while guests got to their cars made the finale of the wedding very special. Our driver even snuck us back into the hotel so we could stash away to our room privately.
Don't expect a lot of extra frills for the fees involved, but trust me, it is worth every penny. If you are looking for a lower price, go for the Revolution Room or have your reception on a Sunday.
Amanda and crew are awesome folks to work with. Highly recommended!
The O'Henry was the venue for our ceremony and reception. Everything was perfect on my special day and the staff was very friendly!
My Husband and I had the wedding of our dreams. The entire staff was amazing and completely professional. They truly went above and beyond to make sure our day had the special touc...
hes , and make the day extra special. When you add the amazing fact that this is a green hotel; that was just the icing on the cake. This is a beautiful venue and anyone that wants a beautiful, elegant, and memorable wedding then I would 100% hands down recommend THE PROXIMITY! OH and Brenda the hotel florist is AMAZING!
We had our reception at the proximity and everything was perfect! The staff was very attentive and timely. We brought a lot of handmade decorations, favors and pictures and they ...
were able to display them everywhere, making us feel special!!
We were absolutely thrilled with our reception at the O. Henry hotel. Amanda was wonderful to work with and it was all inclusive so it saved a ton of stress. Our guests were so c...
omplimentary. The hotel has a wonderful atmosphere and we were very pleased with the excellent service.
This is the hotel to stay at and they should make more of them to put in cities all over the USA. We booked our wedding reception at this hotel and rooms for our guests, as well as...
ourselves. EVERY person that stayed at the hotel complimented us on our choice of hotel as it is modern, accessible, has outstanding customer service and a welcoming response to anything you might need, want or simply anticipate needing.
This is across the board and not just because we booked our wedding with them. They treat everyone like they are the most important guest and go the extra mile. They have cars (London Cabs) that they will use as taxis with minimum charges; they have airport shuttle pick up, which was a huge help for all the out of town guests that were flying in; they have a stunning set up in each room where there are giant windows with great light exposure; they have two sinks in each bathroom with Aveda products and all of it is 100% LEED certified as it is the "greenest" hotel in the USA.
The restaurant is Print Works Bistro and it services both guests, restaurant goer but it is also the menu for all the wedding food, which ensures that you receive quality meals for all your guests.
Without any hesitation, I would stay here again and again. I will compare all future hotels to this one for service and standards. My husband and I (along with 30 of our friends that stayed there for our wedding), travel for a living with an entertainment company and live in hotels on a very regular basis. This is one we would choose to stay in for both vacation and business.
Book it and you will have an amazing time guaranteed!
There was nothing about the O.Henry that we didn't like. From our initial meetings with the staff through the end of our reception- we were pleased. No request was too small or to...

amanda and Morgan are wonderful to work with and made our day so special! They made us feel so cared for!

Absolutely wonderful experience working with O. Henry. The planning process was a breeze with very informed and punctual employees. Only down sides were minor on wedding day. Somew...
hat rushed meal, outdoor patio area was not opened as discussed, and entree not presented the same as during tasting. Other than the rushed meal, no guests knew of anything being "wrong". I would highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for an elegant and classic reception. The rich wood feeling made for the perfect setting for our fall wedding. We had a blast!!
The staff was easy to work with the package prices were reasonable the rooms were beautiful and the outside of the hotel is wonderful for pictures.;The largest ballroom needs a ...
little bit of updating.
It was a very convenient space especially for as many out of towners as we had coming in and the food was very good but not at all expensive.;I was assigned three different even ...
coordinators throughout the course of my planning and it seemed like the outgoing ones didn't let anyone know what was going on. They forgot to place out the cocktails that I had specifically requested (in fact they lost the recipe and I had to give it to them again) they cut the top layer of my cake and they completely forgot to do the champagne toasts included in the contract. We had to scramble to get champagne for me and my new husband. I don't think any of this affected what a wonderful time any of the guests had but it stressed me and my family.
