Top 5 Reasons Why You Need a Wedding Block:
Sep 12, 2013 01:57 PM Back
1. It's FREE and CONVENIENT
As a bride or anyone hosting an event where people have to travel, I think we can all agree that your plate is probably full, so why take on more work? We've been in the hotel industry over 20 years, we know what to ask, how to get you the best rates, and protect you from the "unknowns" (which to us are not unknown). The best part it's easy! Fill out a questionnaire, pick a hotel, and you've knocked one task off your planning list!
2. Preferred Group Booking Policy
Hotels like groups and we know they like groups because they get offers that an individual wouldn't. (Perhaps it's because our group clients are great and the hotels know that...hm...) Whatever the reason, groups get preferential treatment. A hotel might give you the best rooms, private check-ins, welcome drinks, late check-outs, etc. Not to mention that in the event a hotel is overbooked, it's much easier to send one person to another hotel than it is to send a group, so your reservation is double confirmed!
3. Lock-in the Rates
Hotel rates change every day. But whether a celebrity has made a sudden appearance or there is a finals game, when you book your hotel block in advance your rates are locked-in. So as much as the hotel might want to raise their rates, you're one step ahead of the game, and why? Because you have a contract.
4. You'll have an assistant
When a group of rooms have been blocked off for a guest, often times the hotel will assign a person of contact who solely manages your block. Instead of having to explain your situation every time you call the front desk, there will be someone who works with you from start to finish. It's this person who would help you set-up group dinners, breakfasts, and even schedule the distribution of welcome bags.
5. Personalized Service
Booking online has its downsides such as mandatory prepaid rooms (even when booking months in advance), a zero cancellation policy, and a VERY limited supply of rooms (generally it's 2-4 rooms). But even with our tolerance of these policies, sometimes things still don't go as planned and that's when having booked a hotel block through us would be useful. We'll just be a phone call away from reminding the hotel of their commitment.
