Ballantyne Hotel & Lodge

I've always thought that the Ballantyne was beautiful but never dreamed that I could afford to get married there. When I got engaged, I figured why not see what they have to offer and boy, was I surprised! Not only did I plan a budget friendly wedding at the Ballantyne, but it was still full of all those special touches that make the Ballantyne so wonderful. My guests were wowwed with the hotel and grounds itself, but food and staff were also amazing. It's been a month and a half and I still hear from my guests that the food was the best they've ever had at a wedding. And what's more, I enjoyed every second of my day because I knew that there was a great team of Ballantyne staffers making sure that every detail was just right!

We had our reception at The Ballantyne Hotel & Lodge in August. It was truly a memorable experience. Our guests are still talking about how impressed they were with the service, how beautiful the hotel is, the delicious menu and how much fun they had! Most of our guests were visiting from out of town, so it was great for them to have a wonderful place to stay for the wedding. Our whole planning process was virtually effortless, and our catering sales manager was so proactive, helpful and such a joy to work with. The Ballantyne is definitely THE place to have a wedding in Charlotte, as it is hard to match the quality, service and value that you will find here.

Our wedding at Ballantyne can be described in one word FLAWLESS!!! I'm still receiving compliments from our guests who were amazed at how friendly and professional the entire staff at the hotel was. From the minute our guests arrived to check in for the weekend, they were treated like royalty. Our reception was absolutely perfect and the food was INCREDIBLE! We are so glad that we chose The Ballantyne for our special day!

OUTSTANDING!! We still hear from our friends about how nice everyone in the hotel was, the food quality, and the atmosphere. Of course, they also say that our wedding was a blast, but it wouldnt' have been as much of a success had we done it anywhere else. My wife and I went to three or four other venues before visiting The Ballantyne, and had we come here first, we could have saved a significant amount of time and effort. I strongly recommend!

The Ballantyne was the most perfect place to hold my wedding weekend! We had guests come in from all over and they were so impressed with how pretty the hotel is and the hospitality they received from the entire staff. The Reception was georgous! My friends and family still talk about the rack of lamb we had and my favorite part was throwing my bouquet over the most beautiful banister before we walked down the grand staircase for our goodbyes! It was the most perfect place for my magical wedding!
