Ben and I’s experience at the Baronette was top notch from beginning to end. From our first visit / tour to the final planning meeting and the wedding weekend, this hotel treated us like royalty. The communication and meetings with Jamal were fantastic; he is very attentive, professional, and easy to work with. We highly recommend booking the Baronette Renaissance Hotel!
We choose The Baronette based on its location to our ceremony and reception. We were able to book a hotel block and the Toasted Oak for a refreshment hour. The staff was always kind to us and our guests. It was a cleanly, decently fancy hotel that met our guests' needs.
Oh boy was this a wild ride. We started planning at the hotel back in 2019 before covid and covid made us delay to NYE of 2021. Our original day of coordinator quit earlier last year and Jamal was brought on. Can I just say as a type A very anxious bride, Jamal brought me a sense of calm and was very accommodating. I cannot thank him enough for the the flexibility and professionalism! It was SO worth it to have our wedding here!
Any questions?
Jamal at the Baronette was wonderful to deal with! Excellent attention to detail, not only for our ceremony/reception, but for the entire weekend. The Baronette did an excellent job accommodating our many out of town guests and family members. The Baronette has a wonderful, homey feel that not all hotels offer.
I was disappointed by the staff at the Baronette when I was planning my wedding reception. Understandably, COVID wreaked havoc on the wedding industry last year. However, the staff did not advocate for their couples as much as many other venues did. Because of COVID restrictions last year, I ended up moving my reception date to June of 2021. However, the staff was very hesitant to allow 2020 couples to postpone last year. Back in April 2020, I discussed my concerns with not being able to have a large event in July. However, the staff's answer at the time was, "The Governor only has the stay at home order in place through the end of May. There isn't any indication that your event cannot happen in July." At the time, they were expecting me to host my event as planned and pay full price even if there was a guest limit due to the state's restrictions. I explained it was not fair to me that I would still be expected to pay for 150 guests even if I wasn't allowed to have that many, and I explained how no one wants to go through and uninvite guests. So I asked if I could postpone my date to sometime in 2021. Their answer was that if I did, I would have to sign a new contract and pay full price and would still be responsible for the 2020 event fees as well. They didn't understand my concerns of hosting a large event in a pandemic (and also not understanding that it wasn't likely any place could go from being completely closed down to hosting an event of 100+ people in a month's time). It wasn't until mid-May when the governor extended the stay at home order thru mid-June 2020 that they allowed their couples to postpone their dates without having to pay for 2 events. So after I secured a new date, I was hopeful for better luck in 2021. Unfortunately, there were still a lot of restrictions. I don't blame the Baronette for what was going on, but I was disappointed the staff wasn't doing more to come up with alternatives for their couples. When I reached out to them in October and November to ask about suggestions for how to modify my event in case restrictions were still in place, their answer was, "We have to see what the governor says." In other words, they just wanted to assume that things would be better by the time my event got closer. But you can't assume that with something like a wedding reception since many details have to be made in advance. I get it that everything depends on the state's rules, but I was disappointed they weren't actively trying to come up with solutions for their couples to have a safe, modified event. Friends of mine getting married in 2021 told me how staff members at their venues were already coming up with alternatives for the 2021 wedding season last fall in case restrictions were still in place, such as having a tent outside or offering to bring their catering staff to an offsite outdoor location. Back in December, I inquired about having a tent outside in the parking lot, and someone at the Baronette reached out to one tent rental company. However, I was expected to cover the entire cost, and it was not in my price range. I ended up canceling my June event back in March since indoor events were still limited to 15 people with no indication of when this would change. I'm grateful the Baronette staff respected my decision. Many restrictions were just lifted, but I still recommend 2022 couples look at places that offer indoor and outdoor accommodations in case restrictions are implemented again. Good luck.
We had our ceremony and reception here, and it exceeded my expectations. We had to change our date twice due to covid, and they went above and beyond to accommodate us. Lynsie was a pleasure to work with, as was Alex and Ferris.
I cannot say enough good things about this venue and the people who work there. We had our reception here last Saturday, and everything was absolutely wonderful. I planned our wedding from Washington DC, and Lynsie was so incredibly accommodating throughout the entire process. Amazingly professional and sincere service from the entire team - not to mention, our banquet lead Kasey (I'm SO hoping I spelled her name right) was there at our last meeting and also stopped into our rehearsal dinner to check in. Lupe also made sure my husband and I ate, and always had the right drink. Everyone handled our (rowdy) crowd so professionally and courteously, and we were surprised by a wonderful gift from the events crew when we got up to our suite at the end of the night. We are still getting compliments from guests about the incredible service and delicious food. I couldn't recommend these wonderful people more! Such a great experience, and Lynsie made everything so easy for myself as a bride - long distance or otherwise. I legit could NOT be happier!

Alyssa, thank you SO much for sharing your special day with us and for these kind words - we are extremely happy that we made all of your dreams come true while making the planning process super easy! I wish you both nothing but the best in y...
our happily ever after together!
We got married at the Hotel Baronette on February 8, 2020 and it was the perfect winter wedding venue! Not only did the lobby have a cozy feel for pictures, but we received a great rate for our guests to be able to stay at the hotel. Having our ceremony and reception all at one locations was super convenient, especially since there was a little snow.
The service we received before, during and after our wedding was excellent. Lynsie, the wedding coordinator, made sure all our questions were answered and that everything was planned to a T. Kacy, the catering supervisor, was there the day of our wedding to make sure everything was coordinated and executed perfectly. She truly went above and beyond to make us feel special and she made sure everything was taken care of on our wedding day.
On top of the excellent service by all the Baronette staff, the rooms were clean and up to date, the food/drinks were amazing and the overall feel of our wedding was elegant and classy - just like we wanted.
I would recommend the Baronette to any bride! Our wedding was truly a dream come true.
Response from the Vendor on 02/19/2020
We are so happy that everything went just as you wished it would and that the perfect winter snow came just in time to make those magical pictures happen! Your kind words are SO appreciated and we can't thank you enough for sharing your specia...
l day with us!
Cheers!
I've been really conflicted about leaving this review, because while the end result of our August 2019 wedding was nice, and our guests were impressed by the looks of the venue, to be perfectly honest, I wish I could have a do-over of the day, but at a different venue.
Working with Courtney was pretty much a breeze. Her level of communication was good (responded relatively quickly to emails, answered calls/returned calls in a timely fashion, usually had a good attitude/demeanor, etc.), and if there was a problem, she always responded in a proactive vs reactive fashion.
The problem came in one I had to have unexpected surgery in April. I'm a breast cancer survivor, and at that time, I was barely a year into my survivorship, and anyone who has been down this road, knows that it's not over just because you've gotten the "cancer free" clearance. Because this survey was so unexpected, it completely gut punched our finances, putting a strain on EVERYTHING. My mom stepped in to help, and in doing so, she reached out to Courtney to let her know what was going on. Courtney alerted the general manager, Jeff Reick, to the situation. I firmly believe that she did so, not only because of what I'm sure was company protocol, but to figure out what can be done to keep things moving forward. THIS was when working with The Baronette became one of the biggest headaches of my life. Jeff made of abundantly clear that he didn't care about what I was going through (I have this in writing), that he wasn't going to make things easier for me with the payments, and if I didn't pay on HIS terms, he was more than happy to cancel my event.
From April to July (because we heard absolutely nothing from him after paying the venue OFF, which told me he got immense pleasure in being a complete and utter [insert colorful descriptor here] to us), our dealings with The Baronette were no longer exciting, as they were before, but had become a source for raised blood pressure and migraines.
By the time our wedding weekend came around, I was more looking forward to it being over and never having to have any communications with the venue ever again (which is why I waited so long before leaving this review). It completely changed how I felt about one of the most important days of my life? If I had to do it all over again, I would've gone with a different venue.
Oh, this is also on top of my husband and I not receiving to go plates of our dinner like I'd asked, and the extremely awkward placement of the entrance, being juxtaposed to the aisle (per the venue's planning), which made our aisle walk very.....well, awkward.
Needless to say, I was mildly dissatisfied with my wedding day, and it has been bothering me for months.
Response from the Vendor on 02/20/2020
Dear Samantha,
Thank you for taking the time to write this review. Courtney is no longer with the hotel and I have taken over her role. On behalf of the hotel, please accept my apology for any dissatisfaction you experienced during your even...
t. The entire staff is disheartened to hear that your special day did not meet your expectations, as we always strive to provide our guests with an exceptional experience. I am so very sorry that you had to endure such a medical hardship. We worked very hard to provide you with the best possible price for your event and needed to adhere to the contractual arrangement that was agreed to per the standards set out by company policy. We wish you the very best in your marriage and we sincerely appreciate your feedback as it enables us to improve our standards.
We booked with the Baronette for our ceremony, hotel block, and brunch the day after our wedding. I cannot say enough wonderful things about the staff! We had sixty out-of-town guests and every single one of them felt welcomed and personally helped with all of their needs. We didn't have to do a thing during our wedding weekend - Lynsie had absolutely everything covered perfectly and was extremely helpful both before and during the weekend. Every single question we had was answered and every single request we had was honored above and beyond. And brunch was out of this world!
Response from the Vendor on 12/18/2019
Thank you, Katie, for sharing your experiences with us here at the Renaissance Baronette! We are so thankful that we were able to play such an important role in your special weekend! We wish you nothing but the best!
From the moment we first walked into the Hotel Baronette for out first wedding consultation, I was impressed by the quality of customer service; from the front desk to our coordinator to even the manager, who we were simply strangers to. The time and attention put forth by the staff during the planning process was endless. A million questions could be asked and they never wavered. They were always timely on answering emails and never missed a detail. The day of our wedding, we ran into a decoration disaster, and the hotel saved us just hours before our ceremony! I will never forget that. The set up came out exactly how I pictured it too. It was a wonderful experience and I would do my wedding day over in a heartbeat! Highly recommend this hotel for any wedding!
Response from the Vendor on 11/16/2019
We are so happy that everything went just as you wished it would and we were happy to step in and help when your vendor fell through on you! Your kind words are SO appreciated and we can't thank you enough for them. Cheers to a happy marriage!!
We booked this venue a year in advance for it seemed perfect. The hotel was mostly able to accommodate all of our requests. Our wedding three weeks ago turned out beautifully. I loved how close everything was together. My husband and I had our ceremony outside and the reception indoors. I greatly appreciated the timely set-up and "quiet" removal of ceremony chairs to place them in the reception area. The day of ran quiet smoothly. The staff was wonderful and polite and very organized. My only issue is that our previous coordinator had moved on to pursue another job and our new coordinator caused us a great deal of stress. We ended up confused and way over our original budget. It felt like we had to re-plan the whole wedding again. On top of that communication was poor. Two weeks prior to the wedding we were still working things out and I could not get in touch with our coordinator. We had to call managers etc. to get a-hold of her. Majority of things were left unclear and we got a hefty price to pay for it too. If we would have known that this was going to occur we would have went with another venue.
We could not have been happier with our decision to choose Hotel Baronette for our wedding reception!!! From the first moments of walking into the hotel, we knew that the reputation of a luxury, beautiful hotel that Hotel Baronette has built was completely true.
We worked with Courtney, who was there to help us every step of the way. She answered our never-ending list of questions and small requests immediately. She was so accommodating to us and really went above and beyond for our special day. We could not recommend working with her more!
Our wedding ended about a month ago and we are STILL hearing from our guests about the BEAUTIFUL ballroom, hotel rooms, and of course, the food. Making the decision to choose Hotel Baronette for our reception was our best decision throughout our wedding process and we could not possibly have asked for anything more. Thank you so much Courtney and Hotel Baronette! You made our wedding one to remember forever!
Response from the Vendor on 09/11/2019
Thank you SO much, Hannah! Your designs transformed our ballroom beautifully and we were so happy to celebrate with you. Enjoy married life!
Choosing the Baronette Renaissance was the best choice we could have made regarding our wedding, aside from choosing each other.
From the moment we contacted the venue to find out if our date was available, we were in the best hands possible. We ended up hosting almost every part of our weekend at the venue from the final days preparations (which felt more like a mini-pre-wedding vacation) through the send off brunch the day after. Every part of planning and execution was nothing short of impeccable.
The staff was top notch in every department, from event planning, to catering, to the banquet servers and bartenders. They made sure every detail was attended to, and made our wedding weekend everything we could have dreamed of and more. Every need and want was met, or a creative option was offered, and often they were meeting needs and wants in advance of us even thinking of it. Everyone was warm, welcoming and professional. It was like we hired a very capable team of friends and family once the by the time the weekend was underway.
The vast majority of our guests stayed at the hotel, and we only heard over the top compliments for the accommodations from everyone. The guest rooms are high quality, up to date, and modern yet homey. The suites were exactly what we needed to have both a groom and bride space to get ready, as well as gather with friends and family. The bridal suite also made for the perfect wedding night to soak in the joy and love of the day together as Mr. & Mrs.
We ate practically every meal in the onsite restaurant, Toasted Oak, and the in room food service for day of meals was perfect. They even put together a breakfast to go for the bridal party since we were getting our hair done off site. We were able to join our early arrival guests in the lobby, which is more like a big cozy family room, after rehearsal dinner to visit and spend time before the bustle of the big day, and enjoy some of the vast selection of wines that Toasted Oak offers. We still have wedding guests raving about the food at our wedding reception, and we were even able to create a custom salad to start off the meal.
The venue even made our wedding cake, and it was above and beyond (as was everything) as well as cost effective. We even made a change the week of the wedding, and it was effortless. The design was beautiful and exactly what we wanted, all built from the most delicious cake. I’ve even had a couple of friends try to replicate it for family birthdays, since they said it was “some of the best cake they’ve ever had”.
The hotel feels more like a home away from home, and was perfect for us since we love to host get-togethers at our home. It was easy to transition that level of hospitality to our guests for the weekend, since the space and staff are so warm and welcoming. The versatility of the space and flexibility and creativity of staff made it so our day felt like an extension of us as a couple. The love of the day came through in every way.
This team and the venue are impeccable. We truly feel that it is rare to find this level of excellence balanced with such a professional and personable staff. We will definitely be back to visit, and plan to celebrate anniversaries and milestones to come. Thank you Renaissance Baronette from the bottom of our hearts! We wouldn't have kicked off our married life with anyone but you!

Rebecca, we are so grateful that you took the time to share such a wonderful review! Our entire team sends a huge THANK YOU to you & Nate. We hope you are enjoying married life!
100% HANDS DOWN the best place to have a wedding! Courtney and her staff were phenomenal! They took amazing care of our requests and wishes, welcomed our family and friends with open arms, and created an incredible atmosphere for our special day! Being an LGBT couple, we knew we wanted a safe space and lovely to celebrate and we could not have been more pleased! Courtney and her staff and all of our vendors were absolutely incredible. The food was OUTSTANDING! Literally every guest I spoke to told me ours was the best wedding they've ever attended. Seriously. Most people came up to us and shared how much they loved the food. Most people "like" wedding food, but this was 5 star, all the way. If you're in the market for an amazing venue, caring staff, and the best bang for your buck, go with Baronette! Best decision we've ever made...besides marrying each other ;)

Your wedding was such a heartwarming occasion! We were so thankful to be part of your special day. It is wonderful to know that you enjoyed your entire experience. Congratulations!!
We LOVED having our wedding at the hotel. The court yard for our first look and the patio wedding was right out of a fairy tail. The staff was incredibly helpful and responsive though out the entire process. The food and staff was wonderful. I have nothing but good things to say. They truly made it the most perfect day!!
Response from the Vendor on 06/19/2019
We are so happy the rain held off for your perfect outdoor ceremony! Congratulations on becoming Mr & Mrs - you & your guests were a pleasure!
My husband and I were beyond happy with the experience we had at the Baronette Renaissance for our reception. From the very beginning of the planning process it was easy to get ahold of the coordinator for any concern or question we had. The perks we got for the amount we spent (including 2 free nights in the bridal suite, upgraded bar package, and a late night snack) were better than any other venue we researched. Courtney was extremely organized and everything went so smoothly on the day of our wedding. The wait staff were polite and went above and beyond for my husband and I, they even had hors d'ouerves waiting for us when we arrived from the ceremony which was much appreciated. The dinner was delicious and perfectly cooked which is difficult to do when preparing meals for large events. I continue to receive compliments from my wedding guests about how wonderful the venue was.
Response from the Vendor on 06/17/2019
We are so lucky to have been part of your special day! It was absolutely beautiful. Thank you to you & your guests for being so wonderful to work with. Cheers!
We got married here earlier this month and were so overwhelmingly happy that we chose Hotel Baronette!! There was not one thing we would change about our night and were beyond pleased with our Social Catering Sales Manager, Courtney!! She was amazing and and helped with each and every last accommodation. We had our ceremony, happy hour, and reception all at the hotel. She responded to emails quickly, answered every question we had, and thought of things we didn't! Communication was great and she worked well with both of our parents who were also in contact with her. Thank you for the best night of our lives!!
Response from the Vendor on 03/19/2019
We are so happy that everything went just as you wished it would! Your kind words are SO appreciated and we can't thank you enough for them. Cheers to a happy marriage!
We are getting married on 12/31 at the Baronette and are so excited! I have to give Courtney Klein, the Social Catering Sales Manager, the best review. SHE IS AMAZING. Courtney is super knowledgeable, calm and helpful. She replies to emails in a timely manner and if she doesn't have an answer right away, she will get you one. When we initially booked our wedding, Katelyn was our contact person and after she left, Courtney took over. I felt a little nervous because I had really liked Katelyn and had already been communicating with her. Courtney totally made me feel at ease and the transition to her taking over was seamless. I can not say enough great things about Courtney. I am confident that our wedding will be great!
I have to give another review after our wedding this past weekend. The Baronette Renaissance Hotel is top notch. The entire staff is amazing - all levels, all departments. We received the absolute best treatment. Our food was amazing, the service was outstanding, I truly cannot say enough great things about this place. THANKS SO MUCH!
Response from the Vendor on 12/21/2018
Oh my gosh - THANK YOU, Cari! We appreciate the trust that you put in Courtney during the transition and can't wait to see your wedding become a reality! Only a few more days!
We are SO happy we decided to have our wedding at the Baronette. They were extremely helpful throughout our entire planning experience, and they truly care about the quality of their work. The food was delicious, the wait staff was delightful, and the behind the scenes crew took care of us. It was so nice to have the hotel right upstairs to avoid shuttles. There were dedicated staff taking care of us (bride and groom), and our families. They were able to accommodate some specialty things we wanted. It was a stunning, modern venue!
Response from the Vendor on 11/12/2018
Thank you SO much Janine - your wedding was gorgeous and one of our favorites! It was a pleasure to be part of your big day and the whole team wishes you a wonderful marriage.
We are getting married in April 2019 and Courtney has made the entire process amazing! She responds to emails in generally less than an hour and answers all of my tiny, mundane questions :). We were supposed to get a junior suite the night of our wedding, but they only had a presidential to view so they're giving us that one at no extra charge! I can't WAIT to have my wedding here! They'll help you with every tiny detail and they don't overcharge/nickel and dime you for every tiny detail!
Response from the Vendor on 10/31/2018
You have been amazing to work with! Don't worry, there is no such thing as too many questions :) I can't wait to continue putting everything together for you - thanks so much for the feedback!!
My sister Brianna and her husband George Morales got married there last year. Everything was very nice and organized from the first tour with Tabitha, to the day after brunch at Toasted Oak. The venue has great incentives including double Marriott points! As a maid of honor in the hospitality industry I was very impressed with the Baronette.
Response from the Vendor on 10/23/2018

The Baronette Renaissance Hotel exceeded my expectations and helped make my wedding the best day of my life! Family, friends, my husband, and I all spent the night at the Baronette the night before the wedding. This made the morning of my wedding super easy, convenient, and relaxing for getting ready. The suites were beautiful and the bridal party enjoyed spending time in the rooms and getting ready there. The courtyard outside was a beautiful place for our first look! Our guests still rave about how amazing cocktail hour was from the food, drinks, and the indoor and beautiful outdoor patio space. During this time, the staff brought up appetizers and drinks to the bridal party while we hung out in the bridal suite. The staff pulled my husband and I aside during this time as well to sneak us into the reception room before anyone else saw it. This was such a special moment! We got to see the whole room done up with lights, cake, tables, etc. Our reception was amazing! Food, drinks, and the staff were all fantastic. The space was amazing! The dance floor was big and packed all night and guests loved being able to step outside to the patio for air and smoking cigars which is located conveniently a few feet from the reception hall! When the reception hall ended at midnight, the party could continue outside or in the lobby for those who wanted to stay up and hang out. It was soooo nice to be able to walk right to a hotel room whenever you wanted to go to bed at the end of the night. I loved my wedding at the Baronette! If you have your wedding there, you will not be disappointed!
Response from the Vendor on 10/22/2018
Your kind words mean so much! We truly hope that every bride is as happy as you are with your decision to choose The Baronette. Enjoy married life and your happily ever after!
I’m a future bride and I’m planning my wedding at the baronette renaissance hotel and it has been nothing short of great! Super helpful staff was willing to come in after hours for tour and the facilities and hotel rooms are so beautifully done!!! Makes you feel super glamourous in the ballroom and the rooms are so fresh and newly decorated very trendy modern feel! I’d recommend them to anyone who’s looking for an event/wedding location and can not wait for our big day!
Response from the Vendor on 10/16/2018
Thank you for the amazing compliments! It will be so much fun to see your vision come to life in our ballroom and we are so happy to hear that you love our newly renovated guest rooms. Cheers to wedding planning :)
Courtney has been absolutely fantastic to work with! She is very flexible and accommodating and can answer all of my constant questions! The venue is beautiful and it is a great value for the price. I highly recommend checking out this hidden gem in Novi. I cannot wait to continue with the planning process and post again soon!
Response from the Vendor on 10/11/2018
So glad you are happy with your wedding venue choice! Can't wait to see all of the planning come together down the road.
My husband and I had our reception at this hotel this past weekend and we had a really nice experience! There was plenty of space in the ballroom to accommodate the 140 guest we had, the food was delicious and there were plenty of places to take nice pictures.
The rooms were really nice and the staff was absolutely amazing. They waited on us hand and foot. This hotel was super accommodating with late checkouts and early check-ins. That went a very long way in my book. I would highly recommend this venue to any bride.
Response from the Vendor on 10/08/2018
We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your wedding at The Baronette! The entire staff aims to make every bride & groom feel special and it is wonderful to know that you felt that way. Enjoy married life!!
It was the perfect place to get ready with family and friends for our BIG DAY! The Hotel is Beautiful and the service was great!
We had our reception at the hotel this past weekend! Through the process of planning Courtney was every brides dream contact person, she emailed back within an hour or two, had great suggestions and was so warm and welcoming. Our guest have shared with us how amazing the food was, some saying best wedding played dinner they’ve ever had! We had an amazing live band and the space was perfect for the music and party! The lines were never long at the two bars on the back of the ballroom and cocktail hour was a hit! Everyone had their share of hors d’oeuvres and drinks while listening to the jazz band flowing from prefunction space to the patio outside! The hotel was the perfect place for the start of our happily ever after!
Response from the Vendor on 09/04/2018
You two were a wonderful couple and The Baronette can't thank you enough for trusting us with your big day! It is so great to hear that you & your guests loved every second of the evening. Congratulations on becoming husband & wife!
We got married at this hotel last night and it was quite literally perfection. Courtney, the catering manager, was a true gem. The staff went out of their way to accommodate our requests and far exceeded our already high expectations. We were given top tier treatment from day 1. I can't explain the service we received from the hotel in any other way except perfection. I would highly recommend this to any bride looking for an all inclusive venue that will treat you like royalty. The food was hot and delicious (we had the dijon chicken and salmon duet), and the drinks were strong(signature cocktails, champagne toast, and a full top shelf open bar all included in our package), and the rooms were recently renovated (clean, roomy, and ready in a timely manner). Total 5 star place!
Response from the Vendor on 08/20/2018
Brandi - you are the sweetest! Nothing makes us happier than hearing that you had the day that you dreamed of. Thank you, again, for letting us be part of it!
My husband and I had our wedding at the Renaissance Baronette in May and it was amazing! I was very impressed with how much attention the coordinators and event planners give you. They definitely make you feel taken care of. You get a day-of coordinator that will help you with whatever comes up. Ours was Mikayla and she was the best! They even moved our bags between rooms for us while we were at the church! The guests couldn't have been happier with the food and accommodations. There were some minor hiccups the day of, but that will happen with every wedding and the staff worked so hard to make the day special and keep me and my husband out of any problems! I couldn't recommend this location more!
Response from the Vendor on 08/03/2018
We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your big day at The Baronette! Thank you so much for your kind words about our hotel and staff. Congratulations and enjoy married life!
I had my wedding reception at the Baronette hotel last week, and I was beyond happy with how everything went. They were a pleasure to work with and helped accommodate any last minute changes and answer any questions I had. Being able to just walk upstairs at the end of an extremely long day is also a huge bonus! If you are looking for an elegant and sophisticated wedding while still staying within a budget I highly recommend! The room was a perfect size for our wedding which was around 170 people. They filled the room but there was plenty of space to move around and enjoy. Their food service is also amazing. We had salmon and chicken duet plate and all of my guests loved it! There is also a bunch of great spots to take photos at the venue.
Response from the Vendor on 07/09/2018
Thank you so much for sharing your special day with us! You were wonderful and The Baronette wishes you nothing but happiness in your marriage. Cheers to happily ever after!
Wish I could give The Baronette Renaissance Hotel 10 stars! They did a FABULOUS job hosting my wedding reception last weekend. The service was impeccable and the banquet manager, Michaela, was constantly checking in to make sure myself, my husband, & our parents were satisfied. Our guests all had a wonderful time & continuously complimented on the beauty of the reception space & the incredible customer service. My groom & I had our own 2 servers for the entire night that were awesome & accommodating to our every request. I would recommended anyone who wants to have an unforgettable, beautiful wedding- checks out this hotel & banquet center. THANK YOU for everything!
I had both my ceremony and reception here. Amazing job. Great staff. Would recommend to any couple.
We used the Baronette for our block of hotel rooms for our nearby wedding. I found them to be very accommodating of every request I had. They handed out our welcome bags as a complimentary service for us. Overall great experience!
Beautiful, modern, hotel venue that caters to all your wedding day needs. We wanted a venue where we could have everything in the same place, and the Baronette did not disappoint! We had our ceremony and reception at the hotel and were so pleased! The best part is, there is only one ballroom, so you are the only party there. Jessica and all the special event team members were so helpful in the planning process and were always available to answer questions when they came up. The food is AMAZING. Our guests still talk about how amazing our food and cake were (almost 3 months later).
My husband and I got married at the Renaissance Baronette Hotel in July 2016 and we had the most amazing day! From pre-planning to set up the day of and thinking of each little detail the staff at the Baronette truly took care of us and created our perfect day. We would highly recommend having your wedding here, both the ceremony and reception were everything we could have asked for!
This is a fantastic hotel! We had our wedding there a few weekends ago and it was perfect. Jessica the event manager is the best. She is so easy to deal with and to communicate with. She is so responsive. The staff and service were also amazing. They really made sure our day was special. They catered to all our needs and there was one hiccup during the night, but they took care of it.
It is a slightly more expensive place to have a wedding, but worth every penny. The hotel lobby and gardens are excellent for pictures and the cocktail hour was fantastic. Our guests had such a great time!
The Renaissance Baronette Hotel was the perfect venue for our small wedding. They worked with us to find a date that would work best for our smaller guest list. The food was superb and I got rave reviews from my guests. We got married on a Friday night in the fall, so obviously outdoor photos were not possible due to it being dark out. Not to worry- their beautiful lobby and décor made for some fantastic photos. The hotel staff was so helpful throughout our entire night. Everything went smoothly due to their help. I highly recommend the Renaissance Baronette.
The entire experience was absolutely seamless. Beginning with the sales team, through the event coordinator, chef, and day-of staff, everyone was on the same page and executed flawlessly. If there were any issues, I never heard about them!
They made my "show" cake as well, and I'm so pleased I decided to take them up on that offer. Very light, and with some creative filling options. I so look forward to eating another piece on our first anniversary.
The overall experience for my wedding from start to finish was a 10/10. Everyone involved in my wedding day festivities went above and beyond to ensure my day went perfect. Everything was beautiful, top quality, and focused on making sure the day was perfect for me. I would recommend the hotel Renaissance to anyone looking for a fabulous wedding venue!
The staff and the atmosphere were unbeatable! We had an amazing experience and our wedding was everything we hoped it would be.
Everyone at the Baronette was incredible. Being an out of town bride comes with its difficulties, but Jessica was always available through email and was very helpful with all the questions and changes we had. She will go above and beyond to make sure your day has everything you want, like an ice cream sundae bar and grilled cheese and homemade chips for a late night snack! The day of staff was also incredible, the room looked great, food tasted amazing, and drinks were not small! I couldn't recommend them enough!
There's a reason why everyone has given the Renaissance Baronette 5 stars, and it's because the level of service you receive while there is impeccable. From the beginning to the end, the staff at RB was kind, helpful, accommodating, etc.
I can't recommend it enough. I'd like to specifically thank Khukon, Lupe, Hannah, Ferris and Mechaela! This team was wonderful and so so helpful!
We will definitely be back! Thank you again!!
Booked this venue for my wedding in August 2017. So far everything has been great with planning. Love Amber! She gave us the origonal tour. We are now working with Jessica. Will post another review as things progress!
Everything was excellent. All our guests loved the food. We felt the staff treated us wonderfully. They were attentive and responsive to our requests. The venue is kept up very well, too. The outdoor space was nice to have too, since the weather was holding up.
The Baronette was the perfect location for our wedding on 9/10/16. It is an absolutely beautiful hotel, with an amazing garden area, delicious restaurant, and fantastic rooms! From start to finish the staff went above and beyond for us and our guests! From Amber in sales, Jessica our event coordinator, Michelle our banquet manager to all the wait and bar staff, everyone was amazing! The hotel allowed us to negotiate minimum rates, extended our room blocks many, many to accommodate our out of town guests, helped set up the most beautiful ceremony and reception room and made sure we were continuously taken care during our stay. I honestly can't say enough about The Baronette, and can't think of one single complaint. This is literally the most perfect venue and a hidden gem. Thank you for making our wedding the best day EVER! :)
I LOVED the Baronette for our reception venue. The food was delicious and Jessica was very patient with our many changes. It is a blank slate, so it is perfect if you want to make it your own.
I could not have been more pleased with our experience with The Renaissance Baronette. They were very responsive, accommodating and easy to work with. They took care of every detail for us. The day of the wedding I got to just relax and enjoy my day with my family and friends and everything turned out perfectly! We are about to celebrate our one year anniversary and people are still talking about how beautiful the venue was and how AMAZING the food was! We have gotten so many compliments on the food alone. All of our guests said it was unlike any other wedding food they had before.
Everyone at the hotel was extremely helpful! The attention to detail and assistance with coordinating with vendors was outstanding! My expectations were exceeded! Our event coordinator, Jessica Schwebs was amazing to work with over the entire year of planning!
We had our wedding at The Baronette Hotel in Novi. The location was perfect for our family and friends, not too far from DTW, two hours away from the west side of the state, and centrally located for metro Detroit attendees. The planning process was easy and fun with Jessica. Every meeting we were greeted with a special gift. The day of the wedding arrived and everything was perfect, the food, the drinks, the setup, the staff. I highly recommend The Baronette for any couple looking for a hotel setting wedding. The ease of the hotel and the ballroom created a safe and fun environment for our guests. There is nothing we would have changed about our venue.
We had our ceremony and reception at the Baronette Hotel in Novi. Prior to booking there, we scoured the Internet and viewed multiple venues. The price for a Saturday wedding at the Baronette was nearly half of what the majority of venues cost, which actually worried me as I thought maybe it reflected a lesser venue. I was wrong, not only was it a great value, but it was a great experience!
We met with Amber the first day, and her enthusiasm and energy were contagious throughout the wedding planning process. We worked with Jessica to plan the wedding and she was fantastic! She always responded quickly and was able to accommodate any request we made, even after the event when we had questions. And the food! Everyone raved about the food, how great it tasted and how ample the portions were.
The staff is great, the venue is beautiful, the service is fantastic and the food is amazing. I would highly recommend the Baronette!
This is a very nice hotel, and overall my experience was good. Anytime I needed something in my room, the housekeeping and service staff were right on it. They brought me bar stools for our makeup session, a huge fan, and other things we needed that I didn't expect them to be able to provide. They were very friendly as well. The restaurant at the hotel is absolutely amazing as well. I only had a few issues with the front desk staff. First, when I arrived I had a bridesmaid dress, my wedding dress, and a ton of bags. I asked for a luggage cart and they plainly told me that there were none available. I explained I had a lot, and especially didn't want to drag my dress on the floor, and they didn't offer to go get one for me or anything. They offered to have a staff member help carry it up, which I appreicated, but I just felt like...I am staying in the most expensive suite in this hotel. I deserve a luggage cart. Also, my mom had requested the room next to ours, and they ended up giving it away to someone else which was very inconvenient for us as we got ready because she couldn't even get on our floor at that point. I am not sure why they thought that was okay. But despite that, I would stay here again.
The Baronette Renaissance was a fabulous venue at which to hold my daughter's wedding. Each and every person we had contact with treated us as if we were there only client and guest. My daughter's wedding was magical; I highly recommend the Baronette Renaissance for any party!
My dream came true. A weekend full of our closest friends and family at an adorable boutique type hotel, unique, intimate, romantic and upscale. Amber Gaines was our host and she did an amazing job helping a picky bride plan a perfect weekend.
We had a rehearsal dinner at Toasted Oak. Great food, drinks and ambiance. Saturday was the wedding. The venue, service, atmosphere was wonderful. Amber made sure everything was carried out as planned. Huge relief for a bride. We also had a fun brunch the next day at the hotel. Unique menu items which the guests enjoyed. The best part was taking up about 60 of the rooms in the hotel. The rooms are so nice, with a cool 'made in Detroit' theme to much of the ambiance and foods/wines. Everyone had a great time. I think of my wedding weekend often, and I thank the staff at the Baronette for making it that much more special!
We had our ceremony and reception here and the staff was amazing. Very attentive, food was exquisite, and very romantic atmosphere. I got tons of compliments from my guests on how nice and accommodating the staff was. You can't go wrong choosing to have your wedding here.
Each of our guests were VERY pleased with their rooms and the high level of customer service.
We can't recommend The Baronette Renaissance highly enough for their truly outstanding service, quality and value for our wedding day. We held both our ceremony and brunch reception at The Baronette, and Amber Gaines (Catering Sales Manager) did an absolutely fantastic job of helping us coordinate a perfect day from start to finish. We opted for a smaller wedding (about 60 people) and did not have an official wedding coordinator, but Amber helped us plan and execute a smooth, elegant occasion. Amber was extremely friendly, professional, and flexible. The rest of the hotel staff went also above and beyond our expectations to ensure we felt valued and that every detail was taken care of.
We held our wedding in the hotel beautiful courtyard (outdoors) and held the reception in their lovely indoor pre-function room. The reception area featured tons of natural light, beautiful chandeliers, and an adjacent private patio. Although the bride and groom didn't take much time to eat during the reception, our guests raved that the food was delicious. The brunch menu featured many local ingredients, which added a personalized touch. From ambiance to location to price, The Baronette Renaissance was a perfect fit.
We stayed at the hotel the night before our wedding and also on our wedding night. The rooms were well-appointed, spacious and comfortable. A very nice gift bag and thoughtful thank you note were waiting for us in our room on the night of the wedding. Very classy touch!
Reasons this venue topped our list:
-Great customer service and quick responses via email or phone
-Could host both ceremony & reception on-site
-Convenient location (Metro Detroit, right off I-96 & next to Twelve Oaks Mall) and plush accommodations for wedding party & out-of-town guests
-Newly renovated hotel feels brand new with sleek, modern style and charming local accents (i.e., Michigan-sourced menu items, Michigan-themed décor in guest rooms)
-Budget-friendly (60 guest wedding reception & ceremony for less than $5000)
Our daughter's wedding reception at the Hotel Baronette Renaissance was wonderful! Amber, the Catering Sales Manager, was extraordinary throughout the planning process. She is knowledgable, efficient, confident, and professional. Michele, the Banquet Manager, and the hotel staff, executed a perfectly timed, flawless reception.
Additionally, Chef Chad proved dinner for over 200 could be excellent and picture perfect! Beautiful venue, exceptional staff!
Amber was fantastic to work with. Her and her team made everything look and flow perfectly. They also gave myself and the wedding party a room 3 hours early until our suite was ready. Lastly, the hotel is beautiful. Great for pics.
I had my reception at the Hotel Baronette on 11/23/13 - besides it being the best party I've ever been to, the hotel staff exceeding my expectations. Everyone was so unbelievably kind and did anything and everything to cater to my husband and me. Let me tell you how:
They made sure we had appetizers and drinks for all of the bridal party out in the lobby, brought us (and my parents) drinks while the bar was closed for an hour, made sure everything was perfect upon guests arrival, accommodated my friends who had to stay another night with giving them our room rate, made sure all the presents/cards got safely back to our room, packed up our leftovers from dinner and gave us a whole new meal as well, allowed my dog to stay with my parents for free (usually a $200 fee), accommodated reservations at Toasted Oak for my 20 family members, allowed my drunk friends to continue to party in the lobby until 4am, had a nice present waiting for us in our room, notified us as soon as more rooms were available for the guests (the hotel was originally all booked, but thanks to Diahna, we were able to have all of our guests stay!) and gave me free tea in the morning (hey, it's the small stuff!)
The venue itself is beautiful and the staff is so helpful. Amber is a ROCKSTAR and is truly the best wedding coordinator out there. There is not one thing we would complain about or have done differently. We checked out many venues and The Baronette was by FAR the best one. We are so thankful for the staff - they really helped make our wedding the best day of our lives. Thank you to all!!!!!
PS. The rooms/suites are awesome, beds are super comfy, and most importantly, clean :)
My husband and I picked this location for our reception and we loved every minute of it! The event staff - Amber, Susin and Michele - were all amazing and were accommodating in every aspect of our event. They worked with us and made everything on our day flawless. The suite that we got for our wedding night (included in package) was amazing and even had a special gift waiting for us when we got there. I would highly recommend this venue site for those who want items included in package deals. We had the option to use all of their center pieces, candles, champagne flutes, and cake serving set. They were also very accommodating for our guests who were staying the night.
I recently had my Wedding at the Baronette and all future couples should beware! All of the different departments at the hotel do not communicate. I had been reassured for months that everything would go smoothly, that every detail had been noted, and sadly things did not go well. It was as if they had never run an event before. Nearly every member of their staff blamed someone else and very few people offered a legitimate apology. They have taken steps to try and improve for future events, but I doubt things will improve overnight.
We LOVED the Baronette!! Our wedding planner, Amber, was fantastic. They are so organized, knowledgeable, and receptive to any ideas I had. Our wedding day was so smooth- even our guests complimented us on how well everything was run. The food was delicious (best wedding food I've ever had- also many, many guests told us they agreed!) and the venue is gorgeous. I am so glad we chose the Baronette- I'd do it all over again!
Beautiful outdoor area, great staff, accommodating, delicious food and great drinks
We couldn't have asked for a better venue! The staff was more than courteous not only to us, but to all of our guests! We were amazed at how attentive they were and seemed to really how friendly everyone was. Now lets talk about the food! My only regret is that I wasn't able to eat more! Not only is it the best wedding food I have ever had, but it is some of the best food I've ever eaten, and all of our guests agree! We have received messages, texts and most of our conversations concerning our wedding now, start or end with how amazing every bite of food was!! It was a beautiful day and the staff at the Baronette made sure it was perfect in every way! We are so glad we had our wedding there and wouldn't change a thing.
Amber, the wedding coordinator was super organized an as detail-oriented as I was. Food was amazzzzing. Everyone raved about it. A little pricey, but worth the extra money. Not your typical banquet hall... guests have their own outdoor patio and separate cocktail hour area
Great experience with this hotel. No complaints about the hotel or service. We had a suite which was well tended after and overall great.
I was disappointed. The set-up of the ballroom was beautiful. Amber and her staff followed my intense instructions beautifully. Unfortunately, the food fell beyond flat. My husband and I were so excited and thrilled with the results at the tasting for our menu. The presentation was exceptional, the steak was thick and juicy(we did not choose filet, both my husband and I have worked in the restaurant/bar business for many years and we know filet is one of the hardest to cook to order for big groups at one given time) as well as the chicken. All the sides were absolutely amazing along with the hors d'oeuvres. When our wedding day came, the food was awful- set up, presentation, and taste. The hors d'oeuvres we ordered were half put together. At dinner, the salad we chose was put on the worst salad plate ever. The salad itself had 4 leaves, one walnut, and if you were lucky you received an apple slice. This type/size of servings stayed throughout the meal. The side dishes and both types of entrees looked as if they were measured out in 2 tablespoon increments. Now let me say, at the tasting my husband and I specifically asked if the portion size and presentation we were having now would be repeated at the wedding and we were told in fact it would be. Sadly, ALL of the food was not. There were a few other minor issues that happened as well that was not appreciated and did not have anything to do with the food. The bottom line is that we chose this venue on high merit and that the food was amazing, and it was not. The food was extremely production. Also, our guest count for the wedding was roughly 150 people. As far as Im concerned, this is what your venue does, is to cater to big groups of people at any one given time. You should be producing high quality food no matter how big the group size. No questions. My husband and I were shocked and saddened by the results. It was almost as if we received a completely different dinner for our wedding from the tasting we had two months prior. I felt embarrased that I talked up the menu/food so much to our friends and family and then it fell flat. Unfortunately we would not recommend this venue to anyone unless they get a new chef and/or kitchen staff. The venue is really beautiful and Amber, the wedding coordinator was great.
Amber and the Banquet Staff at the Baronette Renaissance are FABULOUS. We couldn't have been happier with their service and Amber's enthusiasm and bubbly personality kept us SO EXCITED every time we spoke. Amber was always available to answer any questions we had throughout the whole wedding planning process, even when they weren't venue-related and we absolutely can't say enough good things about her! The day ran very smoothly thanks to the Baronette Banquet Staff, we had our ceremony and reception there-- the room turn over was flawless and the rooms were set up beautifully for both purposes. The grounds were also perfect for wedding photos and it was fantastic to be able to stay there the night before the wedding and the night of the wedding.
Thank you so much Amber & Banquet Staff!
Laurin & Ryan
From the first meeting a year out from my wedding until the day after the Big Day, the staff was amazing! They were very quick to answer questions and redirect you to the correct person. Amber was my coordinator and from day one she was so helpful. I can not imagine any other place being as professional and kind as the Baronette!
I fell in love with The Baronette Renaissance's modern feel when I first visited. I was expecting a beautiful wedding, but I was never expecting the outstanding level of service the staff provided! Amber, the catering sales manager, was available every time I had a question, or a tweak to our plans. The front desk staff was amazing in welcoming our guests, and the event managers made sure that everything went off without a hitch and that I was happy through the entire evening.
A few things to note when you have your wedding at The Baronette Renaissance (as far as booking my Fall 2011 wedding): your cake cutting is free, you get a complimentary champagne toast for all your guests (not just the bridal party!), you get a majorly awesome suite on your wedding night that's included in the package, and an awesome party to celebrate your marriage!
I loved the hotel and would absolutely select them again for my wedding!
My husband and I chose Hotel Baronette based on a number of criteria and we were sure this venue would be a suitable location for our wedding and reception. WOW--they did such an amazing job on our wedding day!! Because ethnic food was required for our wedding, we had to use an outside caterer...and I can't tell you how their staff went above and beyond even with hiccups from chosen caterer. Their IT staff, their food managers, housekeepers, front desk staff, brunch servers....EVERYONE at this hotel was so patient, accomodating, and unbelieveably helpful. After the wedding, we even left gift bags for their staff. Brides--when you're choosing a location, any venue can do the fairly stress-free planning before the wedding but this hotel was supportive throughout the day and made such a difference in our memories of the day because of their service level. I would highly recommend this hotel--especially Julie and Meghan and their staff!
We picked our reception location based on the food. It did not disappoint! It was also great to have a huge room to accommodate all of our guests. The service we received was top notch. There was a nice outdoor garden where we took some of the pictures. Since they only hold one event per night we received a lot of personal attention.
