My husband and I had our Asian-Indian fusion wedding at the Le Meridien/Sheraton Charlotte Hotel and I couldn't have chosen a better spot to host my 500 guests. It was a 2 day event starting off with our Sangeet in the Carolina Ballroom for 250 guests and moved into 2 ceremonies in the same ballroom the following day and then cocktail hour and reception in the Symphony Foyer and Ballroom for 500 guests. From the very beginning the planning was smooth and everything was communicated freely with Alison, the Director of Catering. On the weekend of, the banquet staff was impeccable and were fully focused on making our event go on without a hitch. I would 10/10 recommend having your wedding there because of the size the hotel can accommodate and the service that is provided.

Venue considerations

  • Venue feels large for events with small guest lists

  • No dedicated areas for getting ready
The space is very accommodating in all the most important attributes. Staff is ease to work with and very understanding of issues, front of house areas are always clean and well kept, back of house is very close to the event areas so staff does not need to walk super far for things like passed apps. The only negatives I have are the load in space and back of house space could be a bit better for large events. A dedicated catering kitchen would be awesome but I understand that doesn't work at every venue. There have been tables and or coffee shop supplies in the back of house area the last few times causing staff to have to work around these items.

For every meal purchased, they donate free meals to the community lunch program the following week. They’ve thought of everything: chinaware, servers, bartenders, and even the option to bring your liquor – saving you a ton of money. And if you need décor or a planner, John has incredible recommendations to make your vision come to life.
