Ava Montgomery(bride)1 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 10-06-2021 JULY 2021 WEDDING LOOK SOMEWHERE ELSEI booked a wedding in August of 2020 in SAMS TOWN SHREVEPORT. I called back to inquire about meeting with the sales dept about in March because I had not had any communication from them. The sales dept contacted me in May sat down and discussed how I wanted my wedding set up. We went over the EOB. Staff indicated to me she would be in touch. She contacted me 4 weeks before my wedding stating that she was out of town and that she would have my EOB check amount the next day. The next day came and she never contacted me. I contacted her she told me the company sent her somewhere else to work. That morning she texts me asking me about the things I wanted to be added to my order like the open bar and dance floor. I was disappointed because during our meeting together she told me she was writing everything down and did not. The staff was not consistent. On June 21, she sent me an EOB check amount of $5400 and $800 were taxes. I could not believe it1. The contract I signed was not correct. They spelled my name wrong, and my fiancé's name was not included in the contract.2. The information provided on the contract to reserve the rooms GROUP CODE AND PHONE NUMBER TO HOTEL was wrong. I spent over 80 dollars on detail cards and had to reorder. When I spoke to Derrick, he informed me that my 100 guests would have to call in to reserve their room. WHAT?????3. THE Staff told me in the meeting that she would give me, and my husband two nights free stay in the suite. On 07/19/2021, Derrick called stating that he never gave me the two nights. I informed him the other staff member did and then charged my card without my permission $230.00. I called and informed him about what happened it did not matter. The staff member texted and stated there was a misunderstanding. NO, IT WASN'T. I called and spoke to the HR dept, and he took care of the situation quickly.4. Once I checked into the suite, the cigarette smell in the room was so bad, housekeeping had to come service the room.The buffet manager Joe is amazing.I am so DISAPPOINTED with the service that I received there. They were not consistent, trustworthy, or reliable. You would think that this hotel would have competent people running their sales dept, but they don't. T. Reviewed on 21-07-2021
Angela Stewart(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 08-07-2011 I choose to have my wedding and reception at the same location. It was well worth it. We were originally going to fly to Las Vegas to get married but I wanted to include my family and friends so I suggested we bring Vegas to us. Everyone is so excited, it over looks the Red River and the Boardwalk. The staff is excellent in planning. After the reception we're going down to the live band and off to the casino to do some gambling. Everyone is so excited about the choice we made. Reviewed on 20-06-2011
