My wife and I were married on September 23, 2018 and had our wedding reception here at the Hilton Ocala. Lizbeth made the entire process so easy and comforting right from our first appointment up until the big day! Lizbeth, her husband David and their team were so helpful and kind – I had no clue when it came to wedding receptions and my wife and I had countless questions. Lizbeth walked us through everything, coordinating and customizing our food and beverage choices, the block of hotel rooms for our guests, keeping everything on schedule and working with our other vendors like the florist, DJ and wedding cake shop. When it came to selecting food for the reception, there is a wide variety of options, whether you want a buffet style or plated (we chose plated), including plated duos where you can have two different proteins per plate. The food was so good and Lizbeth will also arrange for you to have a food tasting, where the chef will prepare different options for you, so you know what you're getting. It was also so convenient having the reception here because the guests could go to their rooms when the evening was over without having to drive anywhere.  All in all, my wife and I could not have been happier with how the evening turned out, how the reception was and how well everyone was treated by Lizbeth, David and the staff. If you're getting married in Ocala, we highly recommend making an appointment with Lizbeth before you make a final choice on a venue. My wife and I were so impressed and so thankful to have worked with her – we wish we could relive that day! -- Jeff and Carmelita

Our wedding at the Hilton Ocala was perfect. The venue is gorgeous; there were multiple picturesque backdrops for our outdoor ceremony & plenty of different areas for photos. The staff went above and beyond to make our day seamless and stress-free. The food for our reception was not only delicious but also beautifully presented. The spaces available were versatile, perfect for small or large weddings. I highly recommend Hilton Ocala to anyone looking for a wedding venue that combines stunning aesthetics with top-notch service.

We chose the Hilton Ocala for my daughter’s wedding venue because she loved the barn outside and Buddy the Clydesdale. What we got was so much more. Lizbeth, the wedding coordinator there, was absolutely incredible. She was so great to work with and we felt like she was part of the family before it was over. She helped us get all the right people to get the job done. We did not hire a wedding coordinator bc Lizbeth did a fantastic job. The wedding was amazing and any bump, and there’s always some, were all handled before we knew there was one. The Hilton and Lizbeth are the place to go. The food the venue -everything was put together so well. We only had 4 months to plan a wedding and she worked her magic and gave my daughter the wedding of her dreams.

We had our daughters wedding here and it was the best decision we made. Lizbeth made sure everything ran smoothly before and during the reception. Down to every little detail. One of our bridesmaids had a dress malfunction with the zipper and first person I called was lizbeth. She was there within seconds with her team and fixed the dress. She was on point and I feel like she has become a forever friend.
