Omni Las Colinas Hotel

f fireworks!

yone with great customer service even though it was a very busy holiday weekend (NYE). I would definitely recommend the omni Mandalay to anyone!

e sent! The food that we selected was amazingly delicious and the portions were a lot larger than we expected! The staff during the event were wonderful! We did not have one negative thing happen and our guests could not stop complimenting how wonderful everything was!

d at the hotel for the weekend, everything was perfectly handled by the hotel staff and everyone enjoyed the wedding and their stay!!!

d everything that I wanted for the evening of our son's rehearsal dinner and she produced an evening that was spectacular! She HEARD everything I had said and anticipated in advance what needed to be done. She was so tied in with the catering staff that they produced the most magnificent dinner. She coordinated with each of my vendors to make a smooth and perfect appearance for my music, photographer, centerpiece designer and audio visual company, which was in house at The Omni. It was a magical evening at the Omni Mandalay and I will forever be in their debt for receiving the special evening that I had dreamed of for our son and daughter-in-law. You couldn't possibly find a venue for any event that could that ever be better than my experience at the Omni Mandalay Dallas with Christina Pickering!

ing the actual wedding events, which I think could have been handled with smoother and more open communication, but otherwise, I would highly recommend this venue for a wedding in the Dallas area!

so easy to work with and answered all my questions right away.

day and evening was a huge success.

lf was set up beautifully; the lake and beautiful flower garden make the perfect romantic backdrop. Since the chairs were white garden chairs, no covers were needed at all. At the last minute, I decided to add something to the ceremony which required a couple of extra tables, and they were in place exactly as requested at the time of the ceremony. My wedding was really small, just family and my maid of honor was the mother of my two flower girls, so needless to say she was extremely busy trying to get the 3 of them ready which didn't leave her much time to help me with the details. Holly really stepped in and was such a lifesaver, making sure everything was taken care of; from start to finish she was calm, collected and went out of her way to truly make my wedding day special and as easy and worry-free as possible for me.

r wedding day, they took amazing care of us put us in a gorgeous ballroom for our ceremony. We looked at a lot of different venues, most of them had beautiful outdoor venues, but their indoor back-ups didn't wow us. The OMNI Mandalay is a beautiful hotel inside and out. And to top it off, we had a lot of out of town guests and they took very good care of them. Our guests told us on multiple occasions what a great hotel it was and how nice and accommodating all of the emcees were. To top things off, Christina the catering manager was always on top of things! She consistently replied to all of my emails and phone calls throughout the planning process and was there for every step the day of to make sure the day was perfect. I highly recommend booking the OMNI for your wedding!

married outside in the courtyard and had our reception in the gorgeous Mandalay ballroom. The room block rate they gave for our guests was exceptional- our guests were so pleased with the room rates. The food was phenomenal- I still get compliments on our seafood display and carving station. All of the Omni staff were accomodating, easy to reach, organized, and professional. They were EXTREMELY meticulous with every detail- from the lighting, to the chairs, linens, even how the napkins were to be folded. They worked great with every one of my outside vendors. They made special arrangements for our string quartet at the ceremony and provided a grand piano for our cocktail hour at no additional cost. The Omni has a great room for the bride and her party to get ready in on the day of- that was really wonderful. Every part of our special day went off without a hitch. The only issue we had the wedding night was there was no one around to cut the cake. The best man had to hunt someone down to get a server to cut the cake. But, that was the only tiny issue we had on our wedding day. It was a wonderful experience for my husband and I- one we will never forget. To be honest, it is expensive- it was as expensive at the Omni as it would have been at the Four Seasons (but it was much more reasonable for our overnight guests). So, if you are on a tight budget, I would not recommend. The costs seriously rack up at the end, especially with the service charges, gratuity charges, etc. But, I truly cannot recommend The Omni enough. The accomodations are truly outstanding. Everyone at the Omni staff treated my husband, my parents, my husband's parents, and I like royalty. It was a fairytale evening, and I still get rave reviews from our guests!

d on the wedding day. I was very happy with our original coordinator, however she transferred to a different department two months before the wedding and they gave us a gentleman who didn't usually handle weddings to work with. There were a LOT of gaps in communication between the transition and the new coordinator. We had to correct many things that they were supposed to give us or had originally promised us and then a month before the wedding it was like they had completely disappeared. The planning process had a lot of gaps in it and if we had known what we were getting into from the beginning we probably would have chosen a different venue. That being said, the wedding still turned out beautifully, it was just at our monetary and emotional expense. This hotel has a lot of potential and could become a wonderful wedding venue if they could just work on their communication skills.

nd everyone had a good time. I especially appreciated the butlered hors d'oeuvres.

n, Mokara.

Omni was a great getaway and was very reasonably priced.

sires for the evening, and we were overwhelemingly amazed with how wonderful and attentive she was. We had our reception in the Rhapsody Ballroom, and it was absolutely gorgeous, just as we were promised it would be! All my guests kept talking about how expensive everything looked, but it was actually a bargain! I have referred everyone I know who is getting married to this hotel! My husband's and my magical night was brought to life by the Omni's dedicated staff, and beautiful ambiance. We sure did get our story book wedding, and I am so grateful to Jennifer Cline for making everything happen! Also, we had our guests stay at the Omni, and they were treated like royalty and given an exceptional discount on the room rate. Loved it, loved it, loved it!!!

services around. Jennifer and her group helped us decide every detail that was perfect for our event. Needless to say, the reception was beautiful and our guests were also very pleased. I have no regrets about using the Omni for our wedding!

er gave was second to none! She was so great at understanding every little detail and the follow thru of the entire staff was awesome. We are still getting calls from our 430+ guest lists complimenting the wedding and the location! Thanks for making it our dream wedding.

ted and the t's are crossed. Everything was done for us she helped us with all the vendores from the photographer to the dj, to the flowers and the minister. It was all one stop shopping. We had friends in from Minnesota that have never experiened this type of hotel and enviroment they are still talking about it. The food was Five Star, I think everyone at the wedding came up to us and commented on the food and how it just melted in your mouth. I can not say enough, what could have been a stressful day was stressfree. Jennifer was there everytime you turned around with that cute smile and what do you need now attitude to make this the best possible day of all our lives. That's not even mentioning the staff on the drive to the front desk to the concierge. Everyone had time for you no matter who you were, always a smile and how may I help. We were sad to have it all over and done, we just felt like we were leaving some of our new friends behind and we all pulled out of the drive on Sunday morning. It was great to just get in the elevator at the end of the night go to one of those beautiful rooms and relax. I would recommend for anyone to stay the night, family and friends. Don't have to worry about driving and it was such a relaxed atmosphere. I would not even say five star I would go with a perfect 10. Not to mention what a great place for photos, we just got ours back and they are breath taking. From the inside shots to the wonderful grounds and the cannel. I would recommend this hotel and wedding department to anyone. Take the time and check it out, you will not be disappointed. My hat goes off to all the staff and a double salute to Jennifer and the banquet staff. LOVE THEM.

evable in making sure that she is to have the perfect wedding. All the vendors that she has suggested have been top rate! I don't think I could have done this without her and her staff. Jennifer and her staff have bent over backwards to make sure that all our needs are being met. We can't wait till March!

own guests to relax and enjoy themselves for the weekend they were in Dallas. The Omni is relaxing, spacious, and comfortable. The lobby is filled with greenery and a fountain and has many wonderful areas for pictures. There are also picturesque lawns outside for photos as well. The Mandalay Room was a gorgeous setting for our 300+ guests who enjoyed their hand-passed hors d'oeuvres, seated dinner, and dancing. Four months later our guests are still raving about that special night. Even the children and teenagers had a great time! We had well over 50 out of town guests--some of whom had special needs. Everyone was so impressed by the hospitality, courtesy, and professionalism shown by the hotel staff. All the guests were truly welcomed. Our guests enjoyed themselves during their entire stay at the Omni, which was an important consideration for us. From our first meeting, the Wedding Catering Manager, Jennifer Cline, and the entire staff were extremely helpful and accommodating. There were many options which Jennifer took the time to explain carefully. I enjoyed meeting the chef for the food tasting and was very pleased with the food choices. Jennifer took care of all the details based on our conversations. Our reception was beyond our wildest dreams! I highly recommend the Omni for your special day.

int, but the level of service is the most note worthy. Jennifer Cline was our wedding coordinator for the hotel and she was pleasant, knowledgeable, prompt in responding, and always went the extra mile to ensure we were happy. I had an absolute wonderful time at my wedding because there was really nothing for me to worry about. I am so happy I chose the Omni at Las Colinas, they made my dreams for a beautiful wedding a reality!

r staff did an amazing job as did all the fantastic vendors we used. The appetizers, food and drink were wonderful. Our daughters wedding was a 3 day event and we needed a Hotel that could accommodate all our out of town guests. We and most of our out of town guests checked in from Thursday to Sunday. We had @ 45 rooms at the hotel Everyone commented on how beautiful the Hotel was and how friendly and helpful the staff. They enjoyed the pool and the outstanding beverage and food service throughout the hotel. The Bar staff in the M Bar are just fabulous. We had hosted events in the M Bar on Friday night after the rehearsal dinner and for an after-party on Saturday night after the wedding reception. My friends and family still talk about "that amazing wedding", lol!!!! Although we had our wonderful wedding planner, Staci Freeman, Jennifer Cline was such a wonderful addition to the planning of our daughters wedding. She arranged for our daughter to have her bridal portraits done at the hotel with a complimentary room included. She was instrumental in organizing the flow of the wedding weekend and making sure all of our guests had a special time. I cannot imagine a better venue to have held this "Wedding Weekend". I also want to add that we had the most amazing vendors. Signed, Sealed Delivered (our Band) was unbelievable!!! That dance floor rocked all night long. Alan Skelton and his talented crew from Absolute Entertainment did a Fantastic job with the lighting and the flowers from Garden Gate were just Beautiful! And our phenomenal photographer, Vera Crosby (photographybyvera), captured all the special moments. I could go on and on and I don't mean to leave anyone out, but this review would be too long. Suffice it to say that if you want an Elegant, Classy Wedding but at the same time kick off your heels good fun hold your reception at the Omni Mandalay at las Colinas and book our vendors mentioned!!!!!

is gorgeous, the food is impeccable, and Jennifer Cline (wedding coordinator for the hotel) is top notch! I was looking for a location with indoor/outdoor capabilities and the Omni was perfect for my garden cocktail/appetizer hour and the Las Colinas Ballroom fit my large wedding with room to spare. Guests still talk about how beautiful the venue was and the mouth watering food. This venue is worth its cost and I would definitely host another event here in the future. Brides, if you are looking for classic elegance this is the place for you!

with as she guided us expertly through the planning, and the entire hotel staff was very pleasant and helpful at every turn. We took advantage of the complimentary suite and beautiful hotel grounds for our daughter's wedding portrait session, which proved to be a great choice. And we were happy with every aspect of the event itself. The setup and service for the rehearsal, ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner dance reception were all handled beautifully and professionally under Jennifer's guidance. Our guests were very complimentary of the food and service, and those from out of town had only good things to say about their hotel accommodations (at great rates!) Since the wedding took place on New Year's weekend, it was a busy time at the Omni, but everyone involved went out of their way to make the wedding a great success! (The only thing we would do different is that we would not use Fancy Cakes By Lauren for the cakes; their service and products were lacking.)

she would give you a great deal..also stay at governers suie its huge and use the gondola ride its right there at the hotel...and lot lot more if you wana check some pics please visit hakimsons.com and search for nizar shelina or just google nizar shelina wedding..........

pensive location. But if you are looking for elegance and efficiency then this is the place you want to have your wedding at. Jennifer Cline and her staff was always hands on for the 11 months I was planning this event.
