The AC Hotel was the perfect spot for our Worcester wedding weekend and we would recommend anybody to consider them if you’re getting married in the area. The hotel is new, modern, and has an elegant feel to it. It is also centrally located in downtown Worcester and steps to many popular locations. We held our cocktail hour and wedding reception at the hotel in September, for 170 people, and we also held a room block of about 50 or 60 rooms for the event.

The AC nailed every little detail for our event. The event coordinator, Courtney, was wonderful to work with and paid attention to all of our needs while offering advice, suggestions, and worked with us through any issue that came up. There was more than reasonable flexibility for all of our special requests, whether it was an alteration to the menus, accommodating food allergies, or working our room layout. The food was remarkable and the kitchen and wait staff executed the timing of service with perfection. The bar staff were equally great in moving the lines along and tending to our guests needs. The hotel staff were excellent at handling our guests and - despite the fact that there was another wedding block that weekend with the almost exact last name (literally a 1 letter difference) - there was never a mixup in attending to our guests or distributing welcome bags.

Some other details: the bridal suite comfortably handled 11 women for hair and makeup, and the catering was on time and with excellent food. The lobby has a beautiful fireplace for group pictures. The outdoor tent and Wachusett ballroom were more than spacious for our guest count - the ballroom looks great fully decorated and we recommend adding uplighting to make it really pop (purple worked well for our event.) Finally, AC is a Marriott property and the staff are backed by the large corporate resources: we were ensured that they could support anything we needed and, if anything unexpected happened, that they would be able to accommodate us - this was particularly reassuring coming out of the pandemic, when we were forced to cancel with another venue. Please check out the AC with confidence!!

We chose the AC Hotel for our 8/20/2022 wedding. We could not be happier with this venue!!! The hotel is beautiful, modern, and clean. Parking is easy and many great things Worcester has to offer are within walking distance. The staff are friendly, helpful, and made sure that we and our guests had a comfortable, fun, and memorable experience. One of the reasons we were drawn to the AC were the many positive reviews about Courtney and let us tell you, she does not disappoint!!! She was a tremendous help from the time we toured/booked the venue to the day of the wedding. She was so personable, responsive, detailed, and organized. She truly helped us achieve our vision for the day which was such a big success. Our family and friends are still raving about it and we could not have done it without Courtney. We also met Sarah the weekend of the wedding and she too was incredibly kind, attentive, and helpful. Bennett the lobby bartender was exceptional. He could keep up with and please any crowd (ours was a big one!!). The food was delicious and the servers and bartenders were fabulous. We cannot say enough about our experience and will definitely be back to visit. Thank you to Courtney, Sarah, Bennett and all the other amazing staff at the AC Hotel for helping us with the best weekend of our lives!! 🤍

If you’re thinking of having your wedding here…DO IT! Courtney and all the staff at the AC Hotel went above and beyond. Everything was absolutely amazing and my guests are raving about how awesome the entire wedding was! Courtney answered hundreds of emails from me very promptly and she is so kind and helpful! I can’t recommend this place more!
