Opal Grand Oceanfront Resort

and their execution was smooth and seamless. Highly recommend working with Ana as your event manager - she was friendly, communicative and went above and beyond to fulfill all of our wedding requests. If you are an out of town bride, you are in good hands with the Opal!

o accommodating to work with over the course of my 10 month of planning! My wedding day was exactly what I dreamed of!

my ceremony. They claimed that they just found about the major renovation the day prior, however their GM was posting on trip advisor as early as 10/2018 that renovations would be taking place during this time. I am now in a complete panic looking for another venue. There has not even been as much as an "Im sorry" from this property. The sales team will lie to you, and continue to lie just to obtain a sale. If you're looking to get married this year or next stay away.

we had leading up to the weekend. Because it was an out of town wedding, we were concerned about long distance planning but she made it seamless. The night of the event was absolutely perfect. From the chef's excellent main course of filet and shrimp, to the attentive and kind servers, bartenders and the dining room coordinator, it was a perfect evening. We are grateful to the entire staff at the Marriott for a making it a beautiful weekend!

nd organizing so easy for us! She did an astounding job in communicating with me, which was difficult as it is because I live in Georgia and had to plan long distance. I was only able to visit the venue two or three times the year I was planning and Brittnee really worked with me in between visits to make planning this important event so much less stressful. Brittnee was so patient and informative whenever I was unsure or needed advice. The week/day of we had some issues with guests reservations for those guests who booked through different means or didn’t use our wedding code, and Brittnee made sure every one of our guest was included. During the wedding, the catering staff was so kind and helpful. If there was anything we needed they were on top of it and ready to go. Everyone was extremely professional and the overall set-up and execution was phenomenal. I heard from some guests that the cocktail hour rooms were a little hot, but I’m sure if someone had said something they would have been able to fix it. I had previously heard amazing things about Delray Beach Marriott and I’m happy to say I will add my own incredibly impressed and thankful thoughts and praise to the mix. Our wedding was so beautiful and I had a great time planning it and partying during it thanks to the amazing staff at Delray Beach Marriott.

moothly and we couldn't be more thankful. The venue itself is absolutely stunning as well. Our ceremony was in the courtyard in the center of the hotel, cocktail hour was on the terrace by the pool, and our reception was in the larger ballroom- all PERFECT! I can't explain how pleased we were with the entire Marriott team and we 100% recommend this venue and the team to anyone who asks!

wedding for us.

ive throughout our 16 month planning period, almost always responding to e-mails within an hour. She and the rest of the staff at The Delray Beach Marriott were always so friendly, professional, and accommodating (especially for the Kosher meals we requested). Everything ran smoothly the weekend of our wedding, and we received so many compliments regarding the beauty and elegance of the venue. My bridal party and I got ready in the Island Breeze Suite, staff members escorted us around the hotel anywhere we wanted pictures, and they even transformed our centerpieces for the Farewell Brunch we had at the hotel the next day. Best venue ever!!

s venue!

nutes. The week of the wedding we checked into the hotel and she surprised us by getting us the presidential suite an extra night. She is super organized. The hotel is just beautiful, by far the best venue for a wedding.

thout a hitch. We couldn't have been more pleased with our experience. I highly, highly, recommend this venue for any special event you may have!

things to go wrong, but I do not even know where to begin with the amount of things that should not have happened. Let me begin with the breach of contract...We specifically requested the wireless lapel microphone and we were assured we would receive it, because it was included in our wedding package. About 20 minutes before the ceremony, Britney tells my Groom that the microphone was unavailable and she asked our officiant behind our back if he needed it and she told us he said no, so she sent the guy home that had the mic. It was never his call and she waited until there was nothing else we could do about it to tell us!!! People sitting in the back couldn't hear us during our ceremony and it RUINED my wedding video! I can't hear my husbands vows, but that is not my videographers fault when they were told we would have a microphone, otherwise they would have had a different set up!!! My groom had to request for a gift table to be set up, because people had no place to put their gifts and she didn't bother at first "because usually there aren't that many gifts for destination weddings and I had too much stuff on my guest book table". They waited until last minute to set up the ceremony space and put chairs so far to the right guests couldn't see us from that side. I literally drew a map of the ballroom for the table set up and she managed to mess that up too and blamed it on the florist. She was going to let MY FAMILY SIT IN THE BACK of the ballroom, thank goodness my MIL saw the mistake and fixed it before introductions. She rushed us so much, she wouldn't even let me bustle my dress before introduction. And when I tried to talk to the wedding party before introduction she shushed us!!! She was so rude. It was our special day, but she was so concerned about being on time, so she could go home! Also, they used a broken chair I got caught on during table visits and it ripped the front of my $2000 Alfred Angelo gown!!! They threw away half of my decor although I was promised they would save everything I requested to have saved. We just found out they lost more than one of our Wedding presents, we were supposed to have a plate of hors d'oeurves, but we never saw that and Britney called my GROOM all day about crap going wrong and stressed him out so much, he couldn't even enjoy his time before the ceremony. I also asked her to pin corsages to my grandparents and when she walked up to the wrong people and I tried to get her attention she just looked at me and kept doing what I was calling for her not to do. I wasn't going to leave a negative review, but after I got the wedding video back and knowing that it is her fault for ruining it and just finding out that there is another present that they "lost", I just hope I can help another bride out with my review. Oh and we rented the breeze way room with the balcony and I was assured they would keep the balcony doors locked all day. I locked them myself and their staff kept unlocking it until multiple trips to the front desk fixed that issue. Also we were supposed to have the room from 8-12 but the cleaning crew showed up at 10;30 barking at us to get out so they could clean it!!! For the amount of money we spend at that place I had higher expectations!!!

We held all three events at the hotel: the rehearsal dinner was in one of the smaller ballrooms, the wedding in the large Seacrest Ballroom, and the brunch was outside by the south pool. The amenities at the hotel were wonderful - both bride and groom & families stayed there the full weekend. The location is perfect for those of us that wanted to continue the party at a bar down Atlantic Avenue. Sonja was our event planner, and she was absolutely fabulous! We loved working with her.

and over and over again.

married gave rustic feel and looked phenomenal with all the flowers. The food was great and everything the hotel provided was perfect. Angie who is the event coordinator was amazing and did her job with such ease.

I would recommend this venue in a heartbeat to anyone planning a wedding or any event.

fe. Tami, our event coordinator, was wonderful at making the day easy for me. She made everything so easy so that I could relax and just enjoy my day. I cannot recommend this venue enough!

p of everything and communicating with our vendors!

pleasure working wit her!!

ined!

room block set up especially during a busy weekend close to their high season. The 2 bedroom suite was amazing (but definitely pricey). I can't say enough about the view and the balcony/patio. It was very nice to have all the extra space the 2 bedroom suite provided when getting ready for the wedding (hair/makeup/lunch/etc...) The bellmen were also very quick and helpful as well in regards to getting all of our bags in and out of the suite. If I had to have any complaints, I'd say that at the rate we paid for the suite, it would have been nice to have somethings included in the price (although we did have valet included) such as breakfast. But overall, it was a nice stay. They were able to accommodate both early check in (which we didn't end up using) as well as late checkout (which definitely helped).

pulling out my chair for me. Guests said it was the best wedding food they ever had. (We chose the stations option.) The rooms were beautiful and affordable. Our out of town guests loved staying right across from the beach and enjoyed the excitement of Atlantic Avenue. The Delray Beach Marriott is the perfect place for a luxurious, intimate wedding.
