Omni Orlando Resort at ChampionsGate

e pool, spa, and golf course! It was a truly beautiful time and the Omni was so helpful in coordinating our events. We had a welcome reception the evening before our wedding at the clubhouse on the golf course and it was beyond stunning. Our guests raved about the view and couldn’t get enough of the delicious food! Our wedding day venue was the Grand Salon and when I tell you, it’s beauty truly speaks for itself! This ballroom has a stunning chandelier, beautiful get ready room, and adjacent lawn for all your cocktail hour dreams. The Omni staff was extremely patient and kind throughout my entire planning process. Marissa was particularly helpful in making my visions come to life as well as my coordinator through Just Marry!, Kristen, a service provided through booking with the Omni! A resort wedding was our vision but with the help of Marissa and Kristen, our vision became a wonderful dream come true. If you’re even considering the Omni, go take a tour and you’ll see what I mean!

it. On top of it all, the Omni made sure to make it fun for EVERYONE.

was given the most amazing spaces, and they made my dream of an outdoor wedding come true. The complexity of large multi-day Indian weddings is already tough to handle, however, this was a destination wedding for us. Omni provided my family with storage space, accommodation to come in early for set up, hospitality rooms, and much more to keep all of my guests happy. Omni is equipped to handle multiple events occurring concurrently. The night of our wedding Marissa sent us an entire basket of goodies that my husband and I were able to enjoy. Marissa was very prompt in replying and able to make all kinds of last-minute changes or additions needed possible. She provided great communication with my Planner Rae and I. My guests loved having the all-inclusive feel Omni had to offer. With dozens of restaurants and bars on-site, everyone left happy. The staff during our wedding events constantly checked on my husband and I. They made sure we had a drink or something to eat at every event while always having a smile on their faces. One month later, and I still get calls from my friends and family about what an amazing hotel and wedding it was. I cannot wait to host another event at the Omni. This place will always have a special place in my heart. I would recommend all Indian brides!!

rateful and thankful we were to have them working with us throughout the entire process, they made everything easy for us and helped us find all of our incredible vendors. We will never forget all of the hardwork and dedication they put into our day and we will be forever thankful for all of their assistance. Everything went perfectly and without a hitch!The ballroom and the ceremony were beautiful and the cake/food was to die for!! would highly recommend working with these two wondeful women!!!

t to work with. Our vendors added how easy it would be for them to execute our vision and stood by Omni's reputation. Our vendors also pointed out that our guests would have the best experience in comparison to the other properties we were touring. Within a weekend of touring the Omni along with many other venues we were happy to confirm the booking. Months later we learned that Jennifer was up for retirement and Stephany Fawcette was going to be taking over. At first we were nervous because Stephany was new to the property, however within a few e-mails and a call we were able to make our transition from one director to another seamless. Shockingly enough I have had earlier conversations with Stephany when she was at her previous property and her communications were exceptional and her excitement to work with us was genuine. We did not choose her previous venue because it couldn't handle our capacity of 600+ guests. I guess it was destined for us to work with Stephany. Stephany did everything in her will to ensure that we had an amazing experience at the hotel. She had an amazing rapport with our vendors and exceeded all of our needs. I highly recommend working with Stephany as she is truly someone who loves what she does. She is passionate and does whatever is needed to meet her clients needs. As a whole Omni was a phenomenal hotel and we wouldn't change a thing. Our guests loved the amenities of the resort and the staff was very inviting and considerate to our guests throughout the weekend. Our guests were blown away and enjoyed themselves at the golf course, restaurants, bars and pools. Our guests felt as if they were away at a destination wedding. As for the banquet halls we were blown away with the grounds for our photos and our processions. We used the International Ballroom for our Hindu Ceremony and National Ballroom for our Reception. It was amazing and a dream come true! The service was amazing, the bartenders were great and the hotel kept up with our heavy drinking crowd for the 5 hour bar we contracted. Overall we highly recommend Omni as the place to have any wedding. We plan to redo the whole thing upon our vow renewals in the future. The staff at the venue was super communicative, uplifting and accommodating to our needs. In particular it is indeed one the best places in Orlando to host a large, multi event, Indian wedding with guest counts ranging upwards of 600 guests.

lanning process smooth and special (they even made some magic happen on numerous occasions that really helped make the steps to our "I do" even better). They were the best! Try to get them if you can! In checking out venues to choose for our wedding, what really won me over was the guest service, the beautiful resort, the ceremony location with the waterfall fountain, and - la piece de resistance- the Grand Salon's gorgeous chandelier. All the other venues we visited had mundane lighting with dated, unattractive carpets that drew the eye. I couldn't really tell you what the carpet in the Grand Salon looked like because that swarovski crystal floral chandelier pulled my focus every time I entered the room. I knew right away I wanted the Omni. The food was spectacular! First of all, it made my planning life so easy that the food, beverage, and cake for the whole day were included in the package. I couldn't imagine the time loss on having to deal with 3 additional vendors for those elements. I did want a specialty cocktail with specific mixers I had to bring in myself, but it was a relatively easy process to work with Marissa and Megan on making that happen. Back to the food, my guests have been telling me that it's the best food they've had at any wedding by far. They were raving about it for weeks after, and one friend just told me he made a point to find and shake the hand of the chef! The Mahi Mahi was life changing, and I don't even normally like fish! Also Marissa and Megan made our food tasting experience an unforgettable memory that I will cherish! The resort is gorgeous with so many incredible places for photos. It is also MASSIVE. And if your guests aren't staying at the Omni, tell them the wedding starts an hour earlier than the actual start time. There were almost no guests at our ceremony location at the scheduled start time because A) traffic getting there is always a nightmare on I4, and B) my ceremony location was very far away from the resort entrance so those who arrived "on time" to the entrance still had a 10+ minute walk ahead of them. They had golf cart shuttles that helped, though. And signage everywhere guided our guests who walked. The honeymoon suite was wonderful! We didn't get to spend much time there because we did the Disney Parks in the days after the wedding (I would never recommend doing a park the day after the wedding, my feet and back regretted it). I wanted to stay longer, but it's quite pricey per night. Hopefully for an anniversary we can splurge on it one day. The spa and 5 pools give you and your guest plenty to do without ever leaving! There was A LOT going on at the Omni at the same time as us, so it may not be the spot for you if you want to be the only event happening at your venue. They did a good job keeping our event separate from the dancer event happening next door to us. There were hundreds of soccer kids there for a competition, so it was crowded! The main downside was during check out time when there weren't any luggage carts available and the wait for the elevator was 20+ minutes. We had to extend our check out time by an hour and sometimes use the stairs to bring our bags down. Ultimately, I was very happy with our choice!

we had the hospitality room throughout our entire stay, and our guests enjoyed fully!

o much about Indian wedding traditions. The hotel itself is beautiful with stunning outdoor and indoor event spaces. Our guests loved our venue and enjoyed resort amenities between events. We highly recommend hosting your wedding here!

included cake and a wedding coordinator for day of. They recommended other vendors that they have used before (which we hired each one because they were awesome!) and truly made it a great experience. Every interaction with them was great, leading up to the big day. They were very responsive and accommodating and worked with us to make sure we got everything we wanted. Putting all that aside, the most memorable piece for us what the day after the wedding when all of our guests told us how amazing the staff were (bartenders, servers, etc) and how everyone at the hotel was friendly and nice - that's unmeasurable for us! We also were treated like royalty and the staff went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of. If you need a venue for a wedding, I would highly recommend the Omni and look at the Celebration Falls area at the hotel :)

turned out to be amazing! The venue was perfect! And assistance provided by Marisa, Megan, and Melody at the Omni was exceptional! Their kind mannerism/professionalism, their attention to detail was so appreciated leading up to the wedding, and the service provided by Omni on the day of the event was also top notch. There were a few meal mix ups, but they did do their best to make it right as quickly as possible. We would highly recommend the Omni - it’s a 5 star for sure!

to the best of her ability.

e to stay! Rechelle helped with managing our wedding events and she was so attentive to our needs. Last minute we had to move one of our events indoor due to a rain forecast and she worked with our decorator after hours the night before to make sure our plan B event space would be just as spectacular! Lauren helped us with our room block and she was beyond helpful with our large room block and number of guests staying. She personally helped accommodate some last minute room reservations/extensions to make sure our guests could all enjoy the resort during our wedding weekend. I would recommend the Omni to anyone who is looking to host a wedding without hesitation!

complimentary lounges for guests to hang out if available. The house staff came to fix anything that was not working within 5-10 minutes of calling the front desk. The venue was spic and span and very elegant. The halls were ready on time for the other vendors to setup and everything went smoothly. The weather turned out to be gorgeous for our guests to enjoy the lazy river and pools. The front desk staff was very helpful. I, honestly, can't find anything to complain. We liked the location of it closer to Publix and other restaurants since our events were held for three days and we came another three days before.

Stephanie and Jennifer were the leads for our wedding. I want to give a big shout-out to them. They were amazing to work with. They are so responsive and knowledgeable about Indian weddings traditions. They went above and beyond to make our wedding weekend wonderful. I also wanted to give a big thank you to Melanie who was our room block coordinator. We had so many changes that need to be made to the room block list over the one-year planning period. Melanie was so patient through all the changes and would respond so promptly to each request. I would highly recommend working with the Omni ChampionsGate resort team for your big day!

hat we expected. The staff at the Omni was amazing, from the bell hop to the bartender. All of our guests loved the amenities and no mater where you ate, it was phenomenal. Jennifer was always open to answering all of our questions, giving suggestions, and support. If you don't get married here, you're not doing it right lol

request. Jennifer Smith, Marissa Musumeci, and the rest of the staff made our wedding absolutely perfect. I would HIGHLY recommend this venue to anyone planning their wedding.

catered to all of my requests. There is no were else I could have imagined having our dream wedding and rehearsal dinner. Not to mention, the food was incredible. Thank you Jennifer and Miriam!!!!

r guests! This was such an easy experience with no stress! I would definitely recommend having a wedding here. It’s amazing!

Jennifer and her team were patient, supportive, and helpful throughout the whole process, even allowing us to rebook because of the COVID19 pandemic (our original date was October 24, 2020). There is no detail too small for Jennifer. Every SINGLE question (and we had a million) was answered by Jennifer. She is a VERY HIGH functioning person and her ability to keep track of multipoint emails and respond with the use of multicolored highlighting is IMPRESSIVE. She is very accessible and proactive. She truly loves her job and we love her for it. By the end of the whole process, we were actually SAD to not have to work with Jennifer anymore. She has a great sense of humor and you can tell that she's a caring person who wants to make your special weekend the best it can be. She is the best part about the Omni Orlando (which is already an amazing place) and is what ultimately led us to choose it over so many other locations in the Orlando area. If I could give this place more stars, I would. This place is ten stars! For the management, my only requests for future improvement are to allow outdoor events by the adult pool in the evening (it's such a beautiful space), to have more recycling options (and to be more sustainable - a lot of single use plastic in the pool areas), and to clean the grout in the walk-in showers (several rooms had more mold than grout). Overall, I love this place, Jennifer, and her team! If we could do it all over again, we would do everything the same - just not have spent so much time looking at other venues!

c. She answered my many questions and put me at ease. Our relationship was only strengthened working with Miriam. She could not have been more understanding and accommodating. The staff took incredible care of us the night of the wedding. We felt like the most important people. They were so accommodating and great to us. Our wedding guests came away gushing about the venue. Our Omni experience was great. My only regret was being so busy that I never stepped foot in a pool (problem with being a producer and control freak. Lol) Thanks to the Omni staff for a great wedding weekend!

d Miriam were so professional and knowledgeable with respect to the offerings of the Omni and other items we may have needed from outside vendors. They were so easy to work with as we customized our menus, scheduled our multiple events (rehearsal dinner, welcome reception, and wedding), and finalized all the details. They were very accommodating with ensuring we got each venue location that we wanted. The week of the wedding was such a special time. Jennifer, Miriam, and the entire Omni staff ensured that we had everything we needed from check-in to check-out. They were involved with each event as the days passed. Miriam was always available for any last-minute questions or set-up challenges. John (the day of catering manager), was also at each event and made sure we had everything we wanted. He made sure that we were actually able to eat, packed me to go-dinners when I wasn’t able to eat at the rehearsal dinner, and kept the tempo of the events on track as we had envisioned. When everything was said and done, we couldn’t have imagined a better wedding weekend, and this was really due to the wonderful work by Jennifer, Miriam, John, and the entire Omni staff. Everyone was so polite, welcoming, and just an overall joy to be around. All the venues that the Omni has to offer are absolutely stunning (especially the chandelier in the Grand Salon), and the wonderful staff at the Omni were really just the icing on the cake for our perfect wedding weekend.

aking the wedding a truly wonderful experience for the couple and guests alike. We were beyond happy to choose Omni Resort as our venue for the wedding and would happily give out strong recommendations in favor to any friends/family for any prospective events/weddings. Thank you for your recommendations of vendors and I am sure all of them were happy and excited to work at Omni due to comfort and ease. It was truly a pleasure to work with you Jennifer !!!
