They were always very pleasant, professional and precise in their communication. On our wedding day, both Estefany and Valerie were there to ensure that everything met our expectations and they surprised us with a wedding gift!

We felt very lucky to be able to host our guests and our wedding reception at the Graduate. We had our ceremony at a church a few blocks away and the location of the hotel was perfect. The majority of our guests flew in from other states and it was relatively easy for them to get to the Graduate from Seatac (there is a tram stop right across the street from the hotel). Our sales manager, Sandy, truly went above and beyond to make our weekend special, and the whole staff was so kind. I can't count the number of comments we got from our guests about the vintage vibe and the aesthetic of the hotel, and the rooftop was a stunning location for our first look. The catering was amazing, both in the quality of the food and the presentation/service. Overall, we absolutely loved our experience!

Awarded Best of Zola
We loved working with the team at HGI Redmond for our wedding welcome party and farewell brunch. April was incredible to work with from day one - she helped us organize two events in two different spaces that both exceeded our expectations in every way. The welcome party was in the HGI's banquet event space, which is an indoor/outdoor space that includes a patio with fireplaces and heaters. We used the indoor space for dinner, and the outdoor space for drinks and pictures. The patio was the star of the show since it was a nice summer evening. They also have an AV setup for you to play music, a projector for slideshows, and microphones for speeches. Elliott, the event manager, did an incredible job wrangling all of the event needs and making sure everything ran smoothly, and some of the event staff even helped us iron the table linens and bring our floral centerpieces back up to our hotel room after the event. The farewell brunch was in the downstairs library area, which was such a cute and cozy space for our guests to say goodbye in. Both events had excellent food - the HGI's in-house catering was amazing, they were able to accommodate guests with dietary restrictions (vegan, gluten free), and were extremely flexible in handling all our requests and needs. Overall, the staff, food, and event spaces were all amazing and we're so glad we went with HGI Redmond for our wedding events!
