    Hilton wedding reception

    Overall was very satisfied with all of it. The communication was quick and efficient, I never felt like I was waiting for an answer to any of my questions. It was a wonderful experience working with Kate, she was so helpful preparing for our wedding as well as on the day of. She helped make the flow of the day work so well, taking care of things so we didn’t need to stress or worry about it. The hotel itself was beautiful and worked perfect for the size of our wedding.

    Collaborative

    The venue itself was great even with little supplemental decoration. The best part of this venue was the event coordinator, Kate. She added so much value to the venue and made the day great. I'd recommend to anyone!

    Great Hotel for Edina/Bloomington Wedding Room Block

    We decided to use the Hilton Minneapolis/Bloomington because it was perfect proximity from our wedding venues. The Catering Sales Manager, Kate, was very helpful setting up the room blocks for Fri. and Sat. night and was very accommodating getting us in suites and the Presidential Suite on the 11th floor. The girls used the Washington Room to get ready and the space, food and refreshments were all great. The Chop House was a great gathering space for out of town guests the night before the big day. We only heard positive hotel reviews from our guests, so we would definitely recommend to others looking for a room block.

    Couldn't ask for more!

    In the wedding planning process, it was important to me to have a place that looked clean and welcoming, fit our budget, and had a responsive coordinator. Kate and the team excelled in all of these areas! This was one of most affordable venues, yet looked so stunning. Kate also was astoundingly available for us-I would often email her with questions throughout the process, and a few different occasions, called to talk through some things. The food was delicious as well! The week of the wedding, we had a few minor fixes that needed to happen, and Kate was fantastic and took care of it discreetly.

    I truly cannot recommend this venue enough! We were so grateful for how beautiful of a reception Kate and the team put on!

    Smooth planning and great reception venue!

    We had an amazing wedding reception at the Hilton Minneapolis/Bloomington! My wife and I, as well as many of our guests, traveled in from out of town. The hotel was very accommodating with various arrival times and check-ins. The free shuttle to/from the airport was especially helpful!
    As far as planning the reception, Kate made the whole process easy and stress-free. She was very transparent when explaining all of the details and options to cater our reception to the needs of us and our guests. She was great at setting the timeline and keeping track of everything at each step leading up to our event! We would definitely recommend Kate and the team at Hilton in coordinating your special event!

    Truly Unforgettable

    Our assigned vendor, Kate, played a pivotal role in making our wedding experience exceptional. Her friendly and engaged approach truly stood out. Kate was not only responsive but also incredibly helpful, showcasing a level of care that made the entire process smoother and more enjoyable.
    In addition to Kate's outstanding service, the venue itself at Hilton Minneapolis/Bloomington exceeded our expectations. The staff's cooperation and attention to detail were remarkable, creating a seamless and memorable event. The beautiful setting, combined with the professionalism of the entire team, truly made our wedding day a joyous and stress-free occasion.

    Highly recommend this location for your wedding reception!

    Kate is amazing and made our day great! Her team was respectful, quick to respond, and very professional. The Hilton helped with a lot of the small detail items which made our lives a lot easier. The catering is in house so that is one less thing to coordinate and the food was delicious and priced reasonably. We received many compliments on the food from the guests. We loved having the reception at the hotel so guests could just go upstairs after the wedding without worrying about driving anywhere. We would highly recommend having a wedding reception at the Hilton in Bloomington off of 494 and France!

    Catering manager Hilton Hotel Bloomington

    Catherine Hughes was very professional, reliable, and helped in all avenues of our event, including room blocks, grooms dinner, and our get ready room. I would say that Catherine went above and beyond her duties for us. I would definitely recommend her services and the hotel.

    10/10 recommend!

    Working with the Hilton for our wedding was seamless. Where other venues lack, The Hilton exceeded my expectations for our wedding weekend. They were very hands on and took control of everything from planning details to setting everything up to tearing everything down. Other venues we had looked at charged for absolutely every detail--the Hilton had most everything available complimentary, and were able to customize my vision. They worked with me to bring in decor the week of my wedding, but I still didn't need much as they provide so much! They kept our flowers, cake, and decor in their coolers or storage, which allowed for us to not be running around on the eve or morning of our wedding. It was absolutely fabulous and I would 100% recommend working with them!

    Our Wedding at The Hilton Bloomington Minneapolis

    We worked with the coordinator, Kate Hughes, for a whole year prior to the wedding. She was so accommodating, detail oriented and supportive of us during the process. We are more than grateful to her for helping us navigate the challenges of wedding planning as well as last minute changes we needed for the tables and meal counts. We were able to reserve the shuttle to take pictures nearby at the Normandale Japanese community Garden and it was so seamless and easy to do so, due to Kate setting it up. The staff members we interacted with were AMAZING. We are so grateful for their hospitality and politeness as well as overall happy about the experience! We cannot stress enough how grateful we are for Kate Hughes and the other Hilton Bloomington Staff!

    Kate is amazing

    We were blown away by the Bloomington Hilton. Kate was the events coordinator and she was absolutely fantastic to work with. She was very prompt in her responses and made everything so easy. The venue is super cute and the food was fantastic, but honestly Kate was the best part about choosing this venue. We had an amazing time and absolutely loved it. Everything went off without a hitch.

    You will not regret booking the hilton for your wedding!

    You will NOT regret having your wedding here. From start to finish this entire process was incredibly fun and as easy and Kate Hughes was an integral part of that. She went out of her way to make our experience as customized as possible when it came to decor and beverage options. She acts as your wedding and day of coordinator all in one!

    Amazing venue!

    We booked our wedding at the Hilton Bloomington/Minneapolis this January, and we were more than happy with the service we received from everyone involved. Kate, the wedding coordinator at the Hilton, was a pleasure to work with! She made the process of planning out our perfect day easy and stress-free. She was very easy to talk to and quick to respond to emails. She coordinated with our vendors, such as the DJ and bakeries we went through to make sure everyone was on the same page about arrival/delivery times. She also took care of our centerpiece set-up on the day of the wedding. The bar tenders and service staff who helped at our reception were fantastic and very polite, and the food was AMAZING!
    The prices were pretty reasonable too, especially given the location of the hotel in proximity to popular destinations in Minneapolis, such as the airport and mall of america. The Hilton also provided a shuttle to and from the airport and mall of america for guests who come in from out of town. I would 10/10 recommend anyone looking for a venue to go with the Hilton after our great experience there :)

    The perfect wedding vendor - Seriously!

    We chose the Hilton Minneapolis/Bloomington for both our wedding and accomodations for our guests. We could not have made a better decision. We have 0 compliants. Everyone, from our event coordinator to the hotel staff worked very hard to give us a perfect wedding, and they nailed it! Not only did our event coordinator, Riana, become basically a free wedding planner, the hotel staff accomodated every request from our guests staying at the hotel, including let my family throw a birthday party for my aunt 2 days before the wedding in the executive lounge on 1 day's notice. Every request my husband and I made for our wedding was granted. The food was great, the bartenders were friendly and knowledgable, and they took care of all set up and clean up. All we had to do was bring our stuff, show up, and take our items home the next day. You can not go wrong with choosing this hotel for your wedding or event!

    An amazing venue! You do not want to miss out

    The Hilton when I first saw it was amazing it was very nice to walk into a hotel not expecting it to look amazing. Durning the covid outbreak it was really hard to know what was going to happen. The Hilton was great in communicating with me so I know what was going on. In the end we had someone new to deal with and I was ok with her she remainder me of a family friend. It was a fantastic experience I had nothing to worry about everything was taken care of and I was thankful for the help I had. Everything turned out great. I got to have all my guest in the end. The food was really great too. The chandeliers got me to they were very pretty and unique too.At first me and my husband didn’t really want it at a hotel but then we came to the Hilton also and fell in love. I really do recommend the Hilton for a venue.

    Better than I could have imagined!

    Working with Kelly Huseman at the Hilton Minneapolis/Bloomington was such a gift in the wedding planning process. Our wedding was so much nicer -- truly a dreamy, stress free, gorgeous wedding -- than I thought possible when we first began searching for venues with our budget. I appreciated that Kelly & the Hilton were always up front with details about the venue and its costs as well as flexible so that our wedding truly felt unique and valued there. At no point were any of our ideas off the table for budget, it was simply a matter of how to make things happen. Seriously, some of my friends are shocked that "a hotel wedding" felt so beautiful and fun because they've been to many that just feel... fine or stuffy. That is not the case here! We really cared about our guests' experience at the wedding, and the Hilton did, too. Words are not doing justice to how blown away we are by the Hilton & Kelly's work.

    We had an amazing taco bar buffet for our dinner and it was seriously delicious! It was a great dinner for all of our friends and family with whatever dietary restrictions they had: picky eaters, vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free -- we had them all and they were all super happy with the dinner. Our cocktail hour featured pizzas that were continually replenished during the hour and were kept hot with warmers the entire time. The hallway surrounding the ballroom made for a great space for cocktail hour and our DJ kept the music going, which was so fun.

    On top of all of that, the venue is gorgeous and my pictures certainly don't do it justice (RIP I feel like I'm letting you down, Kelly!). It feels more grand in person than it does in photos -- the chandelier installations add lots of glamour, but the ballroom itself is pretty neutral, so it can really work with a lot of styles. The suite to get ready in was spacious, beautiful, and just what we needed for the bridal party. The day of the wedding, Kelly took care of EVERYTHING. We did not have to worry about a single detail related to vendors or set up or any of it. And it was all so beautifully pulled together, especially due to Kelly's advice and suggestions throughout the planning process.

    Seriously, choose this venue, choose to work with Kelly. We are so immensely grateful to have gotten married at the Hilton Minneapolis/Bloomington. We feel so lucky.

    (We have a wedding video by Fee Films you can watch to see the Hilton & nearby Centennial Lakes in all its glory! https://vimeo.com/382204230)

    1,000,000 x Recommend!

    My husband and I used the Hilton in Bloomington (3900 American Blvd W, Bloomington, MN 55437) for both our wedding ceremony and reception. We were engaged for two years and had originally met and signed with Amber at the Hilton. Amber moved on to another position and Kelly took her place. From the moment we met Kelly we knew she would be a perfect fit to help us with our big day. Kelly is incredibly personable and made us feel as if we were her only couple/event every time we met with her. Kelly met with us many times before the event to get an idea of what we wanted and to help whip us into shape on things we had been procrastinating. Kelly was prompt when returning emails and answering our never ending questions. We purchased many different decor items for our wedding and on the day of Kelly brought our vision to life. We seriously cannot say enough great things about Kelly and the rest of the amazing staff at the Hilton. Every employee encountered was incredibly kind and helpful every step of the way!

    Hilton Minneapolis/Bloomington Hotel's reply:

    Hi Kayla,

    Thank you so much for your kind words. It was a pleasure to work with you! What a beautiful winter wedding you put together.

    Best

    Amazing! Do not hesitate!

    The Hilton Minneapolis/Bloomington was the perfect place for our winter ceremony/reception! Kelly was our event coordinator and she made sure everything ran smoothly, even from the first meeting with her I knew we were in great hands! During our meetings, every time I had some idea about something new (rehearsal, Sunday breakfast, etc), Kelly always helped facilitate whatever we wanted as best she could and made everything so easy for us. She responded to emails promptly and checked in with us throughout the wedding day to make sure everything was going as expected - she did such a great job that I didn’t have to worry at all the day of the wedding!
    We had so many guests compliment us on the food, the venue and the service staff and everyone loved having everything in one place (ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, hotel). The staff helped set up our room and decorations, and even helped take some of it down which was super helpful that night. We were able to store all the decorations in the coat closet overnight and easily removed them the next morning. For pictures, we took half at the hotel - which has some beautiful open walls, and half at Centennial Lakes Park which was just a quick 5 min drive away! It was perfect!

    Another perk - we got the presidential suite the night of the wedding complimentary, and paid for it the night before. It was the getting ready place for the girls and it was perfect!

    Long story short - if you’re considering the Hilton Minneapolis/Bloomington don’t hesitate!

    Absolutely Amazing

    Working with Kelly was wonderful! She helped calm my nerves and was so helpful through the whole process. It was like having my mom, sister, best friend, and fairy godmother all rolled up into this amazing person. She talked me through all my questions and made me feel like she cared about us and our ideas. The wedding day went flawless and I credit most of that to Kelly!

    The staff was also absolutely amazing with all of our guests. My parents even messed up their initial reservation and without any hassle or question the staff took care of their needs.

    I highly recommend the Hilton if you are needing a wedding venue, or just want to have a party. Not only was it beautiful, but every aspect of your event well cared for.

    Hilton Minneapolis/Bloomington Hotel's reply:

    Hi Carissa,

    Thank you for taking the time to review the Hilton. I love to hear your day was flawless. It was a pleasure working with you and Peter!

    All the Best!

    Kelly at the Hilton Bloomington was beyond amazing to work with. Prompt, humorous and just knows everything! If she didn't, the staff behind her made it happen! They accommodated all that I needed and laid the room out how I had planned! Amazing wait staff and delicious food!! The ballroom was gorgeous!

    Exceptional!

    The Hilton Minneapolis/Bloomington was an excellent choice for our wedding ceremony and reception. Kelly was easy to work with and provided amazing service. The venue had it all and more. Thank you Kelly for an amazing event!
