We had my daughters wedding at the St. Anthony in August and it was a perfect weekend. We were treated like we were their only guests in the hotel, and everyone from the bell man to the chef took special care of us and made sure all our needs ...
were taken care of. They even had two salon chairs delivered to our suite for hair and makeup the morning of the wedding. We have received so many compliments on the food and the beautiful venue from our guests. The neutral color palate and crystal chandliers help set the mood for a very elegant affair. The guest rooms have been beautiful remodeled and the rooftop terrace and pool was a great gathering place for our guests. Sara was wonderful work with and made sure all the details at the reception were taken care of. I would highly recommend the St. Anthony as a venue for anything from a special weekend to a wedding reception. Mother of the Bride

the entire weekend! Since we had a lot of family and friends staying at the St. Anthony, we decided to spend the weekend there also. It just made everything so much more convenient and gave us chance to spend time with our family and friends. The hotel and rooms are elegant and luxurious. The staff was very accommodating and helpful. Our guests fell in love with the St. Anthony! The hotel reception manager and Sara were wonderful to work with, I could not have survived without them!! Chief Mata is the best chief in the World! His gourmet creations were not the normal fair that you find at weddings. The food was incredible, the layout beautiful and service impeccable. Chief Mata worked with my daughter to create a menu that was uniquely hers. He sets the bar very high! When planning an event like this, you hope for the best. The St. Anthony delivers big time! The hotel is stunningly beautiful, the staff amazing, the food unbelievably delicious. we are still receiving compliments from guests about food and hotel. The reception was truly enchanting. We are so glad we chose the St. Anthony and would do it again!

I can not even begin to describe how much the staff especially Wendy (wedding coordinator) went out of her way to help us plan our special day. She was very patient with all of our questions, had great advise on different details of the wedding, and she remembered all of request. My husbands parents are from Mexico and the St. Anthony provided us with a wonderful translator for our dinner menu tasting and bilingual waiters for the wedding. Chef Mata is a very passionate about his menu and you can taste it in every bite you take!!! The bar and wait staff are top notch!! All of our guest were taken care of and had a great time!!!

e planning process and was there the whole day of the wedding. The entire hotel staff made us all feel so welcome and was so helpful with anything we needed. The venue is just breath taking, with the gorgeous chandeliers and grand piano in peacock alley. We had our ceremony in the Peraux room and the reception in the Anacacho Ballroom. After the ceremony the flipped the ceremony space into the bar area where we had our bars, cakes, and flipbook station. They were so willing to work with whatever we needed. The staff at the reception was phenomenal. We had a plated duet that was served to all of our guests and everyone loved the food. It was so delicious and everything was cooked just right! Chef Mata was so lovely to work with. During our tasting he would listen to our feed back on the food we were trying and offer suggestion we may like better. That's actually how we settled on the final dish that was served at the reception it was a suggestion that Chef Mata made that sounded just right. Many of our guest stayed at the St. Anthony being that it was an out of town wedding and everyone loved their experience. The rooms were beautiful and they offered a special rate for our guests which was very appreciated. I took my bridal shots at the hotel earlier in the day before the wedding and it was the most beautiful setting for them. The roof top offered a unique and pretty background for our bride and groom shots at sun set and some late night shots with the city in the background. The history and character of this venue is unmatched in the downtown area. It was the perfect venue for us and we would definitely recommend it to any couples looking for a venue with character and charm.

and elegant. The St. Anthony is it! Our wedding took place during the complete restoration, renovation and remodel of the hotel. None of our guests were aware of this process! Peacock Alley was perfect for our cocktail hour. The Anacacho Ballroom comfortably accommodated our guests and the Peraux room was a perfect lounge space. We had a band perform at our wedding - there is a stage in the ballroom and the acoustics were outstanding! Most importantly, I can't say enough about the staff at the St. Anthony. Chef Mata and his team are incredible! We had a custom made vegetarian entrée that was out of this world! Jesus, the catering manager, checked on us all night and made sure our dinner went perfectly. And Sara Wilson...our most wonderful coordinator...she is the reason our reception was so perfect. All of the staff at the St. Anthony will go out of their way to take care of you. I strongly encourage you to consider the St. Anthony - you will have the most incredible, memorable wedding!

r. The St. Anthony has all of these things and so much more. As an out of state bride, it was important to me that the venue included as many things as possible. The food, alcohol, cake cutting service, tables, linens, table settings, and even some of the decor was provided by the hotel. Having one source for all of these things was invaluable. They really took care of everything and are not near as expensive as you'd think with all of these items added in. We had our reception in the Pereaux Room, which was absolutely magical with its chandeliers, large tapestry, and ornate wood carving details. Wendy and the staff there at the St. Anthony are extremely professional and made sure that everything went smoothly the night of. And the food was delicious! The St. Anthony has been making bride and grooms' dreams come true for over a hundred years and I am sure they will continue to for a hundred years to come!

h we used, St. Mary's. For the rehearsal and reception the food was amazing. We had fajitas and enchiladas for the rehearsal, and I just couldn't get enough. We had lemongrass chicken and ginger salmon for entree choices at the reception. My husband said the lemongrass chicken tasted just like his mom's asian chicken soup, and I thought the ginger salmon was delicious. The venue was perfect because we were going for a 1940s theme, and the hotel certainly offers that historic vibe. Just be prepared that it is historic, and some of the fixtures and accomodations reflect that. We stayed at the hotel and I thought the bathrooms were rather small compared to other hotels I had stayed at in the area, but then again there were two bathrooms in my room. The rooms were also a pretty generous size with many layouts to choose from. Sara did a great job coordinating our event, making sure everything ran smoothly. There was another wedding going on at the same time in a different room, and it was so well coordinated that I didn't really even notice. We had a few problems with some guest reservations, so when they send you the list of people who have reserved rooms for the block, double check with your guests. I think I had some people make reservations under my name instead of just referencing my name for the block of 20 rooms we reserved. Then, when they checked in they couldn't find the reservation. We also had problems with them charging valet parking to people who didn't have cars because they mixed up rooms. However, my husband had no problem fixing this when he went down to address the problem. Every time there was an issue they took his side and were happy to help. I had a few comments from guests that rooms were not completely cleaned when they checked in. I heard the hotel had been incredibly busy that weekend with large groups checking in, and they were having problems getting all of the rooms ready. My mom also had a complaint that the front desk would not call our priest, Father Michael, by his title. She noted that while the overall service was great, they should be more sensitive to titles like Father or Rabbi as a sign of respect.

Also, the set up, with the cake being the centerpoint of the room, was perfect. It stood out, but also balanced the room out.;It got really hot. I don't know if it was because there were so many people or if the A/C had problems, but by the end of the night we were melting.
