“We truly could not have asked for a better experience than what we had with Alaina Rineman and the team at Hotel Gettysburg. Together, they made our wedding weekend seamless, stress-free, and truly unforgettable. Planning a wedding can feel overwhelming, but Alaina made the entire process feel manageable and even enjoyable. From the very beginning, Alaina was phenomenal. She responded to my initial inquiry within minutes and remained just as attentive throughout the entire planning process. She was always available to answer questions, walk through details, and offer thoughtful suggestions. She really took the time to get to know us as a couple, which made her suggestions feel personal and meaningful. On the wedding day, Alaina handled everything behind the scenes flawlessly. Any hiccups were taken care of immediately, and we never felt stressed or distracted. She also went above and beyond for our guests, especially ensuring accommodations for those staying at the hotel and even arranging a to-go meal for a guest observing a religious fast. That level of care meant so much to us. Hotel Gettysburg itself was the perfect venue. Located right in the heart of downtown, it offered a beautiful mix of historic charm and convenience. Our guests loved being able to walk around the square, and the hotel provided so many great gathering spaces—including One Lincoln, the Hotel’s own bar and restaurant. The on-site Starbucks was also a huge bonus! The on-site catering was also exquisite. We chose to do a buffet and the food choices were all delicious! Many of our guests returned for second and third helpings of the entrees. The highlight for me is how incredibly picture-worthy the Hotel is, with stunning spots both inside and outside (the bank vault in the ballroom was a favorite!) for amazing wedding photos. Even with nearly 200 guests, the space allowed for comfortable mingling and dancing. The bridal suite and thoughtful touches like packaged cake slices, chocolate-covered fruit, and souvenir champagne glasses made us feel so special. Pro Tip: I also highly recommend working with Visit Gettysburg. They provided free welcome packets for our guests filled with brochures, discounts, and even kid-friendly items, which enhanced the experience for our guests that stayed the full weekend. Because of Alaina, I felt completely at ease and confident that everything was in good hands. When I look back on our wedding day, she is absolutely part of those memories—not just as a coordinator, but as someone who helped make the day feel so special. If you’re considering a Gettysburg wedding, Alaina and her team will take amazing care of you from start to finish. (Photos captured by Megan Gingrich with MG Photography)”

“The communication with Ashore Resort & Beach Club was good, but the quality of their work and overall value was beautiful. They helped make our wedding day special by providing an on-site ice cream bar that we didn't need to find a separate vendor for. However, they did not have chairs for our outdoor ceremony due to the wind earlier that morning, which caused a bit of guests complaining about having to stand during the 15 minute ceremony. Our guests had said that they didn’t see why they couldn’t have set up the chairs as they walked out since the wind wasn’t blowing before the ceremony started.”

“From the moment we reached out to Fenwick Shores, we knew we were in good hands with Courtney, who made the entire planning process smooth and stress-free. When we needed a last-minute space for a small luncheon, they stepped up and offered us their meeting room without hesitation, letting us arrange the tables exactly how we wanted and coordinating with their staff at Mooncussers to prepare light fare for our guests. The hotel itself is beautiful, the wifi is reliable, and the team was genuinely welcoming and accommodating throughout our event.
