Beautiful, reasonably priced and easy venue
Getting married at the Christiana Hilton was a great decision. We loved the smaller ballroom so we could have an intimate wedding. The ceremony space, ballroom and hotel in general was beautiful. The food was delicious and we keep getting compliments from our guests. We had our rehearsal dinner there as well and that food was awesome as well. It was so convenient to arrive Friday afternoon and not have to leave until Sunday. And Katie made it so much easier than I expected. I did not want a venue where I had to do all the work and Katie made it so I did the bare minimum a bride can do and still got a beautiful and personalized wedding. It was a perfect day and weekend!
Perfect location & service
The Hilton Wilmington/Christiana was incredibly helpful and insightful throughout our wedding planning process. The venue was spacious and welcoming, putting our out-of-state families at ease with the ease of service they provided. The team went above and beyond to make our special day run smoothly, and we were thrilled with the exceptional value we received. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding venue - the Hilton Wilmington/Christiana truly exceeded our expectations in every way.
Everything You Could Ask For!
As a wedding DJ that entertains quite a number of times a year I can whole heartedly say that Christiana Hilton is always on top of their game. Multiple options for the ceremony, two beautiful rooms, and best part - everyone can stay on site - but not before hitting the lobby bar for the after party! You can not go wrong.

The Christiana Hilton is a lovely venue nestled in a convenient location just off I-95. I have had the pleasure of working with them for more than 25 years and too many weddings to count. I wish it was as easy to say one thing that makes them stand out, but I truly think I would be selling them short if I did. You see, It isn't just a lovely venue that's not too big or too small, It isn't the beautiful courtyard ceremonies or the experienced, friendly staff. It isn't even the fact that after your dream day unfolds perfectly, you can simply use your key card and enter your room for the perfect ending to the perfect day. The fact is, it's ALL OF THESE THINGS COMBINED! Katie and her staff love making dreams become a reality. They have all the bases covered and will knock it out of the park for you. Being in the wedding business for over 35 years, I get to see love at it's best every weekend and I know when a vendor is just phoning it in or they truly care. Trust me when I say you will be in good hands at the Christina Hilton --- They truly care!!!!! Let your dreams become a reality - Call Katie today.
