Cocktail Hour Space

The hotel will setup bars in the Courtyard or in the foyer for your guests to enjoy cocktails, before your reception starts. 

Banquet Tables

The Doubletree is happy to setup round tables seating between 8 to 10 guests per table. They can also set up King's (rectangular tables) which is popular for family and the wedding party.

Guests per Table

Round tables seat between 8-10 guests per table. Rectangular tables vary. They can put tables together and cover them with linen to make them as long or short as you need.

Bar Set Up

During Cocktail Hour:

During cocktail hour the bars will be setup in the ballroom foyer. Most people choose to close the bars once the reception starts. So, guests are not disrupting your reception program. And bars typically re-open when dinner service starts. 

During Reception:

During the reception, most couples prefer to have the bars inside the ballroom, vs. in the foyer as it breaks up the party, when they're in the foyer. But this will depend on how many guest tables are setup as well as the size of the dance floor.
