    Amazing Venue!

    Leandra, Karla, Jeremy and the rest of the Hilton team was absolutely amazing! From the moment I reached out to them about a date for our wedding, Leandra & Karla were super responsive. We had our whole wedding weekend of events at their hotel from rehearsal, rehearsal dinner, ceremony, cocktail hour & reception! We wanted an affordable one stop shop for our guest! The food was great, the outdoor patio was everything my husband and I wanted for our wedding day! The guest were very impressed with the food, drinks, service and hotel staff during their stay! They were flexible with timelines, accommodating and helped us stay within our budget! We HIGHLY recommend the Hilton Garden Inn Fairfax for your wedding!

    Best Wedding Venue Hands Down, 100% Recommend!!

    We had an amazing experience working with Leandra, Karla, and the rest of the Hilton staff. We could immediately tell when we first spoke with Leandra that she is very experienced, detail-oriented, and passionate about her work. She always communicated and listened extremely well to everything we wanted. She was also very prompt and responsive to any questions we asked. Leandra was also so creative and thoughtful in helping us plan our reception, she went well above and beyond our expectations. When we had to postpone, she was extremely accommodating, flexible, and understanding in helping us navigate our wedding planning through the pandemic, and she was excellent in working with our vendors to make sure no extra fees were incurred. Our guests repeatedly raved about the food, drinks, decor, and all the other top notch services provided by Hilton Garden Inn Fairfax and the entire hotel staff. Everyone commented how much they loved our wedding, and we cannot thank Leandra and her team enough. We 100% recommend Hilton Garden Inn Fairfax to anyone seeking to host a wedding or event. The quality and value of their services cannot be beat!

    AMAZING , I love this place so much

    I had an unfortunate experience with the previous venue people that put me in a total panic situation a month before the wedding. I was so devastated by everything that had happened and I called around to see if there were last minute venues available. Hilton Garden Inn happened to be one of the places that was available for some reason. After comparing nearby event venues, we decided that Hilton was at best choice. AND LET ME TELL YOU that was the best decision I made when it comes to our wedding. Within a month of craziness and last-minute planning, Leandra the venue manager did everything in her power to put me at ease and make everything smooth. She was so responsive with both email and phone replies. I am a little bit of an OCD person when it comes to planning anything in my life and Leandra was able to to everything. I really I cannot say it enough how much she put me at ease. The price was affordable and she worked with my budget. If the website price is out of your budget, trust me and contact Leandra. She will work with you to find a good solution. I decided to do the rehearsal dinner at this venue too and she organized my rehearsal dinner also with my budget. Leandra got a list of my vendors and contacted all of them to make sure they were on track and understood how things are going to work on the wedding day. On the wedding day, I did not feel worried at all because Leandra and Jeremy were there. They made sure to all the decorations were in the right place and they had even set up everything the day before to my liking. They really made the venue so beautiful and people complimented so much after the wedding. Jeremy played every role in the wedding, including bartending, decorating, helping guest to the right place, etc. As I look at the wedding photos today, I am once reminded of how much they did for our wedding. My husband and I talked about how choosing Hilton Garden well what's the best choice and I am still so grateful that Leandra was there for everything. Thank you so much Leandra and Jeremy. I recommend this place 100000%. I seriously cannot thank this place enough.

    We started working with the HGI Fairfax for two year prior to our Vow Renewal. As soon as we met Virginia Perry, we knew we were in great hands. Before we have the opportunity to have the event, Ms. Perry left but she left us in the good hands of Un Lee. She step right in and was wonderful. She provided a level of expertise to help throughout the planning process. Another helping hand was Jeremy, he was with us from the start until the end of our party. He was awesome and really made sure we were taken care of and had a fantastic time. The compliments were overwhelming from our guest on the food, the space, and the phenomenal jobs of the staff. I can't say enough great things about this venue. Un Lee’s attention to detail ensured the event went smoothly and they far exceeded our expectations.

    Great Service, Great Food, Great Atmosphere!

    We had our recent ceremony and reception at the Hilton Garden Inn Fairfax, and from start to finish, it was AMAZING! We planned our wedding from about as far away as you can get, and Leandra was there to help us every step of the process to ensure that everything went smoothly. The pricing is also very reasonable. The first time we actually met Leandra in person was the day before the ceremony, and from the beginning we felt comfortable and like we were in good hands. The courtyard where the ceremony was held is beautiful, with lots of flowers and a fountain, perfect for an intimate ceremony like we had. The reception hall was gorgeous, which was wonderful, especially considering that we went with almost all standard options for the decorations. The food was delicious (get the Arancini Balls! Do it if you know what is beautiful in this world!). Everything ran to plan and timing, and we really appreciated the kindness and reassurance of Leandra and the oh so helpful Jeremy that made us all feel less stressed than we would have otherwise. The whole team was very accommodating even at the very last minute, when we made an error with the guest count and had to rejig things. Our day could not have been better, and none of it would have been the same without Leandra, Jeremy, Kat, Jason, Zakia, and the rest of the team!

    Stress-free Wedding at Hilton Garden Inn Fairfax

    Had a great wedding event at the Hilton Garden Inn in Fairfax, Virginia in June 2019. Jason was the on-site coordinator and he helped make the decision making process that takes place before and during a wedding easy. I think the fact both of us were organized helped greatly reduce any potential stress for this event. We had the ceremony and reception at the hotel. As we also had individuals coming over from all over the USA and the world, it made it easy to accommodate everyone in the same location as the venue. The outside ceremony space was gorgeous in the summer with the garden space in bloom. The reception space was just a nice and large to accommodate approx. 150 guests. The setup for chairs, tables, centerpieces, table cloth were all inclusive of the price, so I used what was available. They were able to accommodate a specific napkin fold I wanted. The food was great and everyone enjoyed it. We ended up doing wine, beer, and sodas which worked out fine for all. We ended up buying a wedding cake and sheet cakes from Walmart and my sister-in-law added gorgeous gum-paste flowers for the guests. We were able to deliver the cakes the previous day and have them ready to cut by the hotel kitchen staff during the ceremony. I did see that perhaps one of the sheet cakes may have been too close to a hot area in the kitchen before serving (some of the flowers "melted". Overall the staff were friendly and accommodating, the space was just right for our needs, the food was delicious, and the sound system worked great for the hours of dancing at the reception. An overall fun experience we had.

    Great Service. Awesome Staff.

    Holiday Garden Inn Fairfax hosted our wedding. We were impressed by the attention to details and thoroughness in the service provided. The food was delicious and set up was superb. Their ballroom is neat and beautiful and they have a beautiful patio if you need a church ceremony. And they have in-house chiavari chairs. You should definitely check them out if you are planning to hold a wedding in that location.

    Beyond professional!

    Jason and his crew did fantastic job on my wedding day. He was not only being so professional but also very caring. He genuinely made sure everything was running smoothly and helped me coordinate everything on my wedding day. Wedding planning is stressful to anyone but it was such a big relief working with him. I did not need to hire a wedding coordinator on the day since Jason did know about my wedding plan ins and out. He stayed on my wedding day from the start to the end. He and his crew were very easy to work with. I got so many good compliments from my guests. Foods were in great quality. I highly recommend who plans to have intimate wedding with great service and stress free plus on budget. Cannot thank enough on this venue.

    Seamless !

    I found this vendor through wedding wire and ultimately chose them because I loved the fountain in the back. I was a bride on a budget and had about 50 people. The staff was so friendly and everything looked absolutely perfect. Leandra & Jeremy were great to work with and answered all of my questions and made the process so easy. My wedding went off without a hitch and I can't thank everyone enough. Affordable, Awesome & Attentive!

    Wedding Perfection!

    I don't even know how to being to say what an amazing experience we had having our wedding at the Hilton Garden Inn Fairfax! Jason was absolutely wonderful through the planning process and perfectly handled our rehearsal, ceremony, and reception including details I hadn't even thought of.

    Jason and Jeremy and their entire team took such great care of us and our guests. Our entire wedding day ran so smoothly and stress-free thanks to them. The food was great, the ballroom and courtyard were gorgeous. My husband and I planned our wedding from out of state, and the whole process could not have been better. We just can't say enough great things about this absolutely fantastic venue and team!

    Wonderful wedding experience, highly recommended.

    had a wonderful experience having my wedding at the hilton. Leandra and Jason are amazing to work with. They helped me sooooo much; my wedding would not have been the same without them. They worked with my budget, helped me find vendors, came up with great ideas and most importantly gave me a peace of mind throughout the entire process.

    Good location, excellent catering, perfect service, low price

    The Hilton Garden Inn Fairfax is located close to Dulles Airport, which is convenient for out of town guests. It has a beautiful courtyard to perform outdoor ceremonies, and provides a second ballroom in case of inclement weather. It has a large main ballroom capable of holding I believe 180 guests for the reception.

    Crucially for us the staff maintain a closet full of wedding decorations, so you won't have to go find your own fancy chairs and chargers and other stuff nobody will even remember anyway. We asked them to handle all the decor as they saw fit; we only provided two small floral arrangements. The hotel staff did a spectacular job for both the ceremony and the reception.

    The catering is top-notch. Having attended my share of weddings in the past, I would have been happy with anything at least Applebees quality. But I'm happy to report that the food genuinely was good. We had strip steak, salmon, and tortellini, and all three were exquisite. My brother got married two years ago; he and his wife paid considerably more for worse food.

    When we signed the contract, the Hilton Garden Inn Fairfax promised us excellent service at a lower cost compared to other hotels in the area. It delivered. We couldn't be more pleased.

    Incredible service, beautiful venue

    Having our wedding at this location was the best choice we could have made. Leandra James is incredible and our big day would not have been the same without her. She was very responsive to any request or question I had. She and her whole team, especially Katherine and Jason, were so helpful in planning everything from start to finish. They helped with every single detail of the day including the rehearsal, reception set up and execution and making sure everything ran smoothly and on time. The food at the reception was phenomenal. The garden patio was beautiful. I seriously can not thank these guys enough.

    Leandra was great! She was super excited to help us with our wedding, and so helpful! She helped me make decisions about things I didn't even know went into a wedding! That day the staff made sure everything was perfect. I busted the hook on my dress and they helped me fix my dress just minutes before I was supposed to walk! Leandra and her team are magical!

    HGI Fairfax was a perfect venue for my daughter's wedding - the ceremony space was beautiful, the outside garden where we took pictures was beautiful, the guest enjoyed the cocktail hour and the reception space was done with superb elegance. And on top of that, the staff at HGI Fairfax was AMAZING (they were attentive and extremely professional); not only did they work within our budget but they offered up great ideas to make my daughter's special day even more SPECTACULAR. I highly recommend this location!

    Leandra and the entire Hilton Garden Inn crew were very supportive of us from preparation till the actual event and ensured we had a very unique and special wedding. We truly appreciate Leandra, Jason, Katherine, Sarah, Jeremie, Eli and all the rest of the crew for the love and support. We wish every couple looking for venue to host their dream wedding seriously consider using Hilton Garden Inn Fairfax.
