Delaney M. Sent on 12/19/2021Amazing! They were so helpful, affordable, and blew us away with a wonderful experience.
I’m not exaggerating when I say I think everyone should have their wedding at Ruth Eckerd Hall. Our experience was worth way more than we paid. The food was excellent, the staff was overwhelmingly helpful and made us feel like royalty on the day of. Completely stress-free planning with the team. Our guests raved about the champagne and the experience. We wouldn’t change a thing! -

We had our wedding here 5/13/23 and it was more than I dreamt it would be. You get top tier service from the moment you begin planning up until the end of your event. Megan was great with the details and responsiveness to my many emails. My only regret was that I did not have a day of coordinator to keep everything organized because there was no one to help us with the timeline after the ceremony and ensuring the toasts were done so it was a bit all over the place. I want to give a special shout out to Mary on their staff. Mary is an absolute angel and she made sure we had EVERYTHING we needed from drinks, to food, to grabbing my second dress for me to change into. There was not a second that her attitude was anything beyond pleasant. Thank you for doing all that you could to make sure our needs were met and they were thanks to you!! -

10/10 recommend Ruth Eckerd Hall. My wedding reception was held at Ruth Eckerd Hall and it was everything I could've imagined and so much more. It would not have been possible without our AMAZING coordinator, Megan. Not only did she put up with my EXCESSIVE amounts of e-mails and questions but she took the time to respond immediately to each and every one of them. She never complained or made me feel as though I was bothering her. Honestly, it felt as though my wedding was the only one going on! (Which I know is not true.) In addition, my vendors had nothing but great things to say about her as well. This includes my photographers, DJ, and bakers. Megan took the time to make my vision come to life! There was a wedding the day before mine so I couldn't set up my centerpieces. However, Megan set them all up for me the day of. The day of was beautiful. The entire Ruth Eckerd Hall staff was very attentive and helpful to my needs. The staff even brought me new plates of food when I was too busy talking! My food got cold and without hesitation, they brought me more. (Which was absolutely delicious btw!) Beautiful venue, reasonable prices, extensive options for food, and staff that made the entire experience wonderful. -

The first wedding during COVID
Planned and rescheduled twice, the day went off almost without a hitch. The only 'hitch' was a little bit of rain. After all the planning and adjusting due to COVID regulations, Megan, Jackie, Chef, Karen and the entire team made it the perfect day and night to remember. From the bridal party accommodations to get ready day-of to handling our guests and our other vendor partners, plus the unusual circumstances, we can't speak highly enough of this venue. Communication about the rules that kept moving due to Covid was exceptional and we worked together to adjust as needed. The security team was welcoming and efficient and every guest was screened, temperature-checked and hosted with the highest discretion. Not a single guest encountered any illness as a result of attending our event. The bartenders, servers, support staff and decor, lighting, and overall atmosphere were exactly as we had hoped. The food was exceptional - nothing really more to say there - and special dietary requests, personalized cocktails and lighting and decor requests were met and exceeded in every case. In the few weeks since the wedding, our guests have shared with us how much they enjoyed not only the food but the whole evening. MANY have said it was the best wedding they had ever attended. And the bride and groom (as well as the mother and father of the bride) enjoyed the evening with family and friends instead of worrying about the first detail. Megan, Jackie, Karen and the team thought of everything. Highly recommend without pause for any event. -

Dominic C. Sent on 10/30/2020Helpful. Reliable. Amazing
From start to finish, everyone at Ruth Eckerd Hall went above and beyond even with the sudden changed caused by COVID-19. Whether it was just questions on what’s allowed to changes in policy due to the virus, Megan was extremely helpful and responded (when we emailed) faster than texts I get back from my own family.
We absolutely loved our wedding there and couldn’t have picked a better venue. We believe it’s the best bang for your buck! -

Outstanding!!!
I couldn’t have chosen a better venue to have my wedding at. The staff at Ruth Eckerd Hall helped to make my day so special and went above and beyond for everyone there!! The staff took care of us all day and made sure we had what we needed/wanted. They made sure we weren’t running behind on schedule while getting ready/taking pictures before the ceremony. They wanted to make sure my husband and I ate during the reception and brought us drinks so we wouldn’t have to get up! Those were just some of the things the staff did to help and made sure we were taken care of. My husband and I want to thank them from the bottom of our hearts for making our special day so memorable! I love Ruth Eckerd Hall and would always recommend this venue for weddings and events!! -

Our wedding was on February 29, 2020 and was an amazing event, thanks in much part to REH and their amazing team. They are such a flexible group and provided so many special touches that made wedding planning from another state a complete breeze. I highly recommend them! -

Beautiful & Elegant
This was the first place we toured and every venue after we compared to it. What originally held us up was the ceremony being on the terrace (Uh, what?! It was BEAUTIFUL!!) and the fact we couldn’t taste test before booking. We paid for a pre-tasting before booking and signed our contract, I believe, the same day! Leading up to the wedding I worked with Megan on everything and she was an absolute dream to work with! She made planning and wedding day so simple and easy! I brought all my décor the day before at the rehearsal and the staff set everything up and took everything down. They even allowed us to come get our stuff the next day which was super helpful to us (thank you Jen and Jackie for making wedding day and closing time so simple for us!). I am still getting compliments on the food and deserts from my wedding day. Most everyone said they felt like the food was from an actual restaurant and was so good. We got the desert shooters and everyone LOVED them. You could literally not bring one piece of décor to this venue and STILL have a beautiful and elegant wedding. I don't think I can say enough about this venue and what it had to offer. We had access to take photos throughout the entire venue. From the bar staff to wait staff to everyone that we encountered along the way were super nice and friendly. I would recommend this venue and this staff to everyone! I promise you they wont disappoint!! -

Absolutely perfect
This was the wedding of my dreams. Megan Gurba and the staff was so friendly and helpful in making it a special day for us. None of the guests wanted to leave! Everything was perfect, the ceremony and reception was beautiful, the food was delicious, and the staff was accommodating and professional. I couldn't ask for more. All in all, I highly recommend Ruth Eckerd Hall for your next wedding or upcoming event. -

My wife and I had THE BEST DAY! They were so helpful with everything. Coordinating the colors, tasting and selecting the food (which had rave reviews by our guests), scheduling around our busy schedules, doing the rehearsal on short notice and helping pull it all together. Thank you for giving my wife a Grand Reveal during the ceremony they drew back the curtain and helped coordinate the music so she felt and looked like a princess. It was perfect. We all stayed to the very end nobody wanted to leave. I couldn't be more thankful to Megan Gurba. She was so accommodating and helpful. The staff helped me make the trellis the day of the wedding. My best man and i were sweating on the balcony the day of the ceremony and the staff came over to help us.
They let us take pictures in the theater and in front of the venue. It was perfect. The bartenders took great care of us. It was a night I'll never forget and a night i wish could have lasted forever. -

Amra Sent on 03/21/2018I am so happy and thankful that I had my wedding at the beautiful great room at Ruth Eckerd Hall. Rene, Liz and the REH team went above and beyond to make my wedding just like in my dreams. They were always attentive, hardworking, and kind. The venue itself is spacious, with a beautiful balcony and high ceilings with a sparkling chandelier. You will regret not choosing this great venue for your big day! -

Christine Sent on 02/18/2018you would be crazy not go with Ruth Eckerd hall as your wedding venue. Rene and Liz are the best coordinators you will ever meet. Rene made sure everything was perfect to our liking down to the lap napkin. She definitely made the wedding planning 100 times easier.
