    Truly the hotel was better than we could have imagined. They were so communicative and mindful of this being our special day. The quality of the hotel is so high to begin with. We brought in a wedding planner as well and they worked so well together. Our guests stayed at the hotel as well and teh whole event was absolutely flawless.

  • Dream wedding venue!

    I had my wedding at the Hotel Du Pont in December and I don’t even know how to begin to describe how wonderful it was. The coordinators - Sandy, Jamie, and Amalia were so gracious and made every step of the planning process seamless. They covered every detail and provided me with so many wonderful options. The day of the wedding was perfection as the ladies helped with any set up and all of the small details while I was getting ready. I truly had no worries and everything went to plan. The hotel itself is just absolutely breathtaking. It’s timeless and elegant. It was also really nice to have the ceremony, reception, and guests stay all in one place. Our guests raved about how beautiful everything was and how attentive the staff was to their every need. Thank you to the Hotel DuPont for making our dream wedding a reality
