Best Decision Ever
Getting married at the Desmond was one of the best decisions we could have made! Karen and her team were incredibly well-prepared throughout the whole planning process, and helped to ease a lot of stress on the big day. The space was beautiful, the food was delicious, and the night was one we will never forget! Our guests had such a good time.

Perfect Wedding Venue
We held our daughter's wedding reception and brunch at The Desmond Hotel. The ballroom, garden room, outdoor spaces and hotel were perfection! Our guests appreciated not having to travel after the reception. The food was delicious and the portions very generous! A very professional staff took care of all our needs. Many have been there for more than fifteen years. We greatly appreciated how well they took care of food allergies. They certainly know what they are doing. If The Desmond can accommodate your event, look no further. You will be in good hands.
