I can't say enough about how wonderful the Abbington was for our daughter's wedding on 3/29/2025. The staff was outstanding and Monica did an excellent job helping us coordinate the event. The staff came to our table and personally gave us some appetizers because they knew we were up visiting other tables. The food was amazing. We still have people commentate our wedding was one of the nicest events they have been to. If you are looking for host a five star event.. stop looking now and go to the Abbington!

A venue for a wedding as people know is a HUGE detail. When looking, I had my eye on the Abbington. Monica assisted us in getting an appointment the next day to take a look. She gave us a tour and saved the best room for last. The North Ballroom was amazing! The windows were beautiful and the room was perfect. Monica answered all our questions and made it an easy choice to go with the Abbington for our ceremony and reception. Throughout the whole process, she was always an email away with any answers we needed, and she made planning so easy. Monica assisted and ran our rehearsal perfectly. Day of, our flower girl was nervous and was too scared to walk. Monica talked to her and had her walk with the ring bearers to calm her down. We received so many compliments on how cute it was and how great Monica was with the kids. Food was just as good as we remembered from our tasting. Everything went perfectly. Our Team Caption Johanna was amazing also! She always checked up on us to make sure everything was running smoothly. We got married almost 2 months ago and we are still receiving compliments on how great our wedding was. We could not have done it without Monica, Johanna, and the Abbington team. Thank you for all your hard work and for making our wedding the best night of our lives. 10/10 recommend!

We attended the 2024 New Year’s Eve gala at the Abbington. My husband and I were so impressed -from the decorations, the ease of check-in, amazing food and fabulous band - the Abbington did not disappoint. Our wonderful server Juan was attentive and kind, never letting our glasses get empty and it was a pleasure to have him attend to us for the evening. The location is close to plenty of hotel accommodations and had plentiful parking. We will see them again in 2025!

We had the wedding of our dreams at the Abbington. We had our ceremony on the staircase which photographed beautifully. The reception hall is breathtaking with the high ceilings, chanadilers, and freshly glazed dance floor. I can't speak more highly of the staff who made our day incredibly special. Victoria was our amazing wedding coordinator. She is incredibly sweet, has excellent communication, and took so much wedding planning stress off of me. Because of her, everything flowed seamlessly and the day was absolutely perfect. The head chef, his team, and the servers were all so attentive during the reception. The food was delicious and plated beautifully. The head chef even came out during dinner hour to check in on us which I thought was very sweet. I can't thank the team at the Abbington enough! You all are top notch and made our wedding a night to remember. Photos by: Callie Rose Photography

Had our wedding here recently and we were happy with the food, the room set up, and the service. Kathy was a pleasure to work with and made it stress-free. Our room captain and servers were on point and did a fantastic job. We had the raw bar for cocktail hour and our guests raved about it.! Gladly would host another event here in the future. We had a cigar bar for our patio and that was a huge hit! The weather was on our side and the banquet is beautiful!

Though we did not end up choosing the Abbington for our wedding reception, I still felt inclined to leave a review. The banquet is absolutely stunning and renovated with chandeliers and great lighting. Victoria was our person of contact, and I cannot express how amazing and attentive she was. I had a million questions and concerns, and she was able to answer all of them. I'm sure the rest of the team is amazing too.

I had my wedding at the Abbington and it was a great experience from start to finish. Victoria helped throughout the entire process and made sure everything was seamless.

The venue was beautiful, the food excellent, and the staff helpful. I am so glad I decided to have my wedding here!!

I can’t express how grateful I am for the Abbington team. I visited the Abbington for a work seminar 7 years ago. I knew this was the place I wanted to get married at. My wedding day was much more than I expected. The team was very helpful from the time I booked my wedding to the end of my wedding night. I couldn’t have asked for a better team!
