We just had our wedding here last night 12/31/21 and everything with planning up until the day of was good!! Kristina is AMAZING but the food was not! The rehearsal dinner food was great and we were so optimistic to what the actual wedding food was going to be! Our rehearsal dinner meal was salmon, chicken, rice, salad, brocolli, green beans, mashed potatoes.. so good! BUT for the wedding night we had pork tenderloin, green beans and red potatoes it was HORRID!! I couldn't even cut the tenderloin I had to pull it apart with my hands and our green beans and red potatoes were freezing cold!! I was not impressed and neither were the guests or my husband! Spend all that money and that's what we got!

The Lawrenceburg Event Center made our wedding a dream come true! Everything went perfect. We have a lot of family from out of town, so staying at the hotel where the reception took place was perfect (and safe) for them. The food at the reception was delicious!! They were flexible with times when we needed to set up and take down our personal decorations, which was much appreciated as an anxious bride. We specifically want to thank Kristina for her dedication & commitment to making us happy. She reached out & always went the extra step to make us satisfied. She is friendly, caring, a good listener and genuine. You can easily tell she loves what she does. I need her in my life to plan every party I throw!! I will always recommend & brag about everyone from the Lawrenceburg event center, especially Kristina. —-Victoria & Sam R

Kristina was always there to help us every step of the way and was a joy to work with. She always answered our questions quickly and helped us achieve everything we wanted and more.

I wish I could give 6 stars!
Everything was even more spectacular than I could have ever hoped for. It has been 2 weeks since our wedding and I still have guests contacting me about how lovely everything was.
Kristina @ LEC was absolutely amazing. Even with all the covid restrictions, she still helped us plan the wedding of our dreams! She keeps you on track and helps you to remember all the little details that most busy brides forget. She even creates an order of events that itemize every single detail of your evening!!! This made it so easy when making sure we had every detail exactly right! She even gave us a diagram of the ceremony and reception area, showing us exactly how everything would be laid out.
***My husband and I would like to give a special thanks to Kristina for literally running to get the rose he was supposed to carry down the aisle in honor of his mother, who passed. It was an irreplaceable moment, and she TRULY came through for us when it meant the most.
The entire staff at the LEC and DoubleTree hotel were exceptional. Adam, our day of coordinator was exceptionally friendly and helpful. The staff at the hotel front desk even handed out our welcome bags to all our guests who stayed the night.
At our reception, the waitresses (there were 2) kept the drinks flowing ALL night! Not once did I look over and see a long line (and let me tell you we had A LOT of drinkers that took advantage of our open bar. HAHA). Speaking of the bar, it was super reassuring to know that if any of our family or friends drank too much, they were able to conveniently book a hotel room for the evening.
Also, each waiter and waitress who cleared tables of trash and empty plates had a huge smile on their face and were super pleasant.
All that and I have not even mentioned how delightful the food was! Highly recommend the Chicken Piccata with a side of Mac N Cheese! It was delish!
We had our ceremony in the LEC, in the solarium in front of the FLOOR TO CEILING windows! The natural lighting in that area is seriously breath taking!!! We barely needed to decorate because the natural lighting from the windows radiated modern
elegance.
As if the reception area was not gorgeous enough, the AV guy at LEC made us a CUSTOM monogram (that matched our wedding favors and welcome bags) to project on the wall. It was magnificent. It made the entire night feel so personal!
I cannot recommend LEC enough. If you want high quality, professionalism, and elegance, this is your place!

We chose The Lawrenceburg Event Center because my husband and I met there 6 years ago. We were finally able to have our reception despite of what was going on this year. Kristina from the venue, was absolutely fantastic. There was a lot that had to be changed from our date to sitting arrangements to how the food was served and she did everything in her will to make she our day was as perfect as it could be. I highly recommend The Venue because they truly go out of their way to make sure that your day is a day to remember. Thank you to Kristina and the Staff members of The Lawrenceburg Event Center.

Derrick and I are so grateful to have the opportunity to work with Emily through our wedding planning process. The venue was perfect and she was able to bring our ideas to life. From day one she was there to answer any questions. We had our ceremony and reception at the Event Center and it was flawless. I would highly recommend the Event Center and Emily as your event coordinator.

Emily Bradford was our coordinator for our wedding reception at the Lawrenceburg Event Center and she did a phenomenal job. From quickly responding to our emails and working out all of the last minute details and questions (food allergies, centerpiece set up, etc.) during the planning stages to making sure our reception ran smoothly and kept us on schedule, Emily had her hands full and never let us down. Her sweet personality was the icing on the cake. Thanks Emily for making our special day a perfect one!

For having absolutely no idea on how to plan a wedding, Lawrenceburg Event Center knew what to do in order for things to run smoothly! I had a million questions and our event coordinator (Emily) was super nice with answering all of them for me! I probably even asked her the same questions five times over. All of the staff were nice and polite. I can't think of one thing that was bad about this place. I would DEFINITELY recommend the Lawrenceburg Event Center to anyone who wants a truly great wedding!!! It was magical!

The entire staffs at Hollywood Casino, Double Tree by Hilton and especially at The Lawrenceburg Indiana Event Center were absolutely fantastic! Danielle B. and Hali were awesome to work with. They went above and beyond to make my daughter’s wedding reception a most memorable occasion. I can't count how many guest raved about the hotel and event center and especially the kind staff. The facility was perfect and all the servers and bartenders were extremely professional, courteous and helpful. We got all that wrapped up in a beautiful small town on the scenic Ohio River in Lawrenceburg Indiana! The location was great, with the beautiful Double Tree by Hilton connected to the Lawrenecburg Event Center along with The Hollywood Casino within walking distance. There were many local restaurants, bars and shops in the area to visit with that same small town friendliness and charm. My family and friends visited many local establishments, including River Watch Floating Restaurant & Bar, and River City Tap Room which were the two favorite spots within walking distance to the Event Center. The wedding party took advantage of the free shuttle to and from the casino after the reception and had a grand time! I didn’t go the casino because I have two more beautiful daughters that may get married someday and I have to save my pennies. I’m not in a great hurry for that to happen because a dad doesn’t like his baby girls to grow up! I will be back to The Double Tree and Lawrenceburg Event Center soon. Actually, I saw that they have Creedence Clearwater Revisited Concert coming soon and I’m trying to talk my wife and friends into another fun evening in Lawrenceburg! Can’t wait!
Thanks again Danielle and Hali for making the Wedding Reception fabulous. YOU TWO ARE AWESOME!
Sincerely,
The Father of the Bride, Chris

I had many guests stay at Hollywood Casino. It was a breeze from start to finish. They set up my room block and guests had no trouble booking with my wedding rate. I dropped off gift bags and frint desk team made sure they received them at check in. The guests had positive feedback also. It gave them plenty of activities - casino, night club, bars and restaurants - to keep them busy in a small town in between wedding activities.

Off the charts! Over the top! Homerun! Just a few of the phrases that I received for three weeks after the wedding reception. Undoubtedly the best and most impressive reception I have ever had the pleasure of attending. Every detail was handled by Terri and Danielle and they performed flawlessly. The event center is absolutely beautiful and the surroundings are picturesque. The historic city of Lawrenceburg and the surroundings of the Ohio River made for the most beautiful and memorable pictures. The shuttles buses that were provided allowed the wedding party and photographer to spend an hour taking pictures from numerous locations while the guest were on the second floor of the event center enjoying cocktail hour and viewing the city as well. The food was absolutely delicious and the service was second to none. I highly recommend this event center to all. Dad

We had our daughter's wedding reception at the new Lawrenceburg Event Center in early August and what a wonderful evening it was. Everything went as planned and our guests had a wonderful time. I can't thank Danielle and Terri enough for the fabulous job they did through the entire planning process. I didn't have to worry about anything the day of or even the weeks before. They contacted all of our venders and made sure that everything and everyone was set-up and ready to go. The food was wonderful and the staff that evening did an amazing job. The Event Center was the perfect choice for our daughter's wedding reception! I highly recommend it!

We had our wedding and reception at the Lawrenceburg Event Center June 21, 2014. Since half of our guests were from out of town, we thought it would be perfect to have our ceremony, reception, and hotel accommodations all in one place! There was a small issue with the liquor license so we didn't have liquor available, but they compensated by having more wines, malt drinks, and even a signature Popsicle drink made with wine. The staff went above and beyond. They were wonderful. Teri and Danielle contacted all of my vendors and set everything up with them for the day of the wedding so that I didn't have to worry! It truly is a beautiful building. The ballrooms are built so that they can accommodate any size wedding and there will be some great places to get ready and relax the morning of the big day.

Kudos to management for having such an experienced team of professionals. Hollywoods coordinator Debbie Walter followed thru with every promise made. When she said it will be taken care of , it was. The director of food and beverage (Greg Tufts) customized the menu to fit our budget ,giving us the biggest bang for our buck. The banquet manager Jen took such pride in the set up -steaming those table clothes herself. It truly was a team effort . Debbie included ,The chef Josh, Andy the IT-AV person, keeping them in the loop. I appreciated that all these people were on hand during the evening of the event.
Hollywood truly was a value compared to other venues we looked at .There weren't those extra "gotcha"charges for - linens,chair covers , colored up lighting , AV usage.
Our guest were treated like royalty ! Again a special Thank you to our coordinator Debbie....
A happy Mother of the Bride !

Absolutely Amazing!!! From the AV system to the Ice Sculpture every detail was perfect! I had my worries of course as do all brides but WOW!! Debbie, Jen, Greg & the rest of the Team knocked it out of the park! The food was delicious, they provided two prime rib carving stations and two buffet lines for 280+ guest and it ran as smooth as silk! The Casino Ball Room is on the lower level of the casino it sounded like a logistical nightmare but was a fairy tail! I looked at other high end venues around the Cincinnati area and was a bit disappointed leaving each meeting feeling very frustrated, like my wedding was going to be just another cookie cuter wedding. Hollywood made me feel like a movie star as cheesy as that might sound it was very elegant!
The party didn't stop after wedding! I think over 150 guest migrated to Boogie Nights dance floor and the rest to the Casino Floor!
We also had a block of rooms (EASY)the hotel made the finishing touch! My guest in town and out of town loved the convenience and fun of having their own little Big city to enjoy!
Classy!!!! Perfect!!!!! Amazing!!!!!!!PARTY!!!!!!!
A sincere thank you to everyone at Hollywood Casino, you made my special Day!
With Love,
Amanda J. E. C.

We blocked our hotel rooms for our wedding guests with Hollywood Casino, and it was a great decision!!! They gave us a great rate (one of the lowest in the area), had enough space for everyone, provided transportation for guests (which was a HUGE must for us), and were wonderful to work with!!! Danielle helped with every request I had without any question. She even worked it out with the staff to pass out guest books we made up for our guests. Our guests loved that it was connected to the casino so that they could make the most of their stay, and we even went with a lot of our guests to Boogie Nights after the reception. It was such a great decision blocking our rooms with Hollywood Casino Hotel!

We made reservations with Hollywood to accommodate out of town guests and any guests wanting to stay the night of our wedding. We were so impressed with everything. The prices were great and the rooms were very nice! The hotel even provided free shuttle service to and from our reception. Danielle Bischoff was the sales representative who set up all of our reservations and shuttle pick up times. She did an amazing job! We were very impressed with everything and I would highly recommend Hollywood for accommodations for your wedding!

With all the stresses weddings can bring it's a huge relief when have help! When I called to book a hotel for my out of town guests I had a tons of questions including check in times, prices, etc. Not only did Hollywood Casino's staff answer all my questions, they did everything they could to accommodate the out of town guests that needed to check in earlier. I highly recommend Hollywood Casino for your hotel needs, not just for a wedding but for any kind of accommodation!!!
