Stunning Wedding

Our day was absolutely perfect! We did not have to worry about anything the day of our wedding! Joie and Jillian were both amazing at helping us select the right package and menu items for our guests. Tiffany helped us select out all out decor and made sure our venue looked stunning! I could not have asked for a better group of ladies! The coordinators Bridgette and Ali were amazing as well! They made our day stress free and helped ensure everything ran smoothly and on time. The food is amazing!!! You have to try the coconut shrimp and the caprese salad! Our guests are still raving about our food. Thank you so an amazing team!

Perfect Day!

Our wedding day was absolutely perfect…from Joie helping us to select our package and all services we wanted to the awesome coordinator Ali making sure everything went smoothly and on time, to the setup and beautiful decor, to the amazing food that everyone loved, to the great photographer Rebecca (Daly Photography) and fantastic officiant and DJ all referred by the hotel. I can’t say enough about this crew. I just want to relive the day over and over. I truly appreciate each and everyone of these people that helped make our day one we will always remember!

The Destination Wedding of Your Dreams

Finding this from the knot was amazing! Being from Kentucky, I was nervous planning a destination wedding where I could not currently be especially with a large party originally estimated (120 people). But, Joie and the Hilton Garden Inn were absolutely exceptional! The DJ, Catering, Bartending, and Wedding Coordination are done in house, which made this an affordable and inclusive experience that I did not have to worry about much, but I was still able to make all the choices! All of our family raved about how kind the staff was and how amazing the food was after our wedding. Everyone has been so kind and they have had wonderful communication skills that can be lacking if you were to choose other vendors that are not these people! If you are in any doubt of who to choose for your beach wedding, I am telling you choose Hilton Garden Inn Fort Walton!! I could not have been happier with my wedding day and it is all thanks to them.
