I attended a wedding reception at this location and I can say that this was the most peculiar Marriott I have ever been to. When the guests began to arrive, everything was in disarray. the cocktail reception/antipasto was partially put together and being completed one plate (not platter) at a time. There were supposed to be options for various dietary restrictions and it was less than accommodating. We stood around for over an hour waiting until they opened the hall. Why? Because there was 6 chairs . The bride's family scrambled to help them get it together before the wedding party arrived. The banquet hall was lovely and once everything got started it was fine. The bar was great but the food was appalling. Lukewarm, processed, pre-packaged, knorr or Lipton gravies, sauces and rice? The mac and cheese was a step about Kraft, mashed potatoes were obviously flakes. The chicken cutlets were so pale, I went for a slice of beef (tough) and a salmon (overcooked).... needless to say, I am disappointed in this location. Do better for the South.
