Capacity & Layout
As a full hotel, the Embassy Suites Brier Creek gives couples a flexible layout across its 6,300 square feet of event space, which includes the ballroom, a conference center, and meeting rooms. The elegant Flight Ballroom can accommodate up to 350 guests, anchoring the reception with its refined design, while the Flight Deck outdoor patio, featuring a water wall and wooden columns, gives couples a beautiful outdoor option for the ceremony or cocktail hour. A graceful courtyard adds another outdoor setting. That flow from an outdoor ceremony on the Flight Deck or in the courtyard to a ballroom reception gives the day a natural progression and a genuine weather backup. Because the hotel offers on-site suites, couples can keep the whole weekend on-site, which is especially convenient for traveling guests. That combination of a 350-guest ballroom, outdoor patios, and hotel lodging suits both mid-size and larger weddings, keeping the celebration connected in one place.
Amenities
The Embassy Suites Brier Creek’s amenities are those of a full, convenient hotel, which is a major part of its appeal for a wedding. On-site suites let the wedding party and guests stay right at the venue, and a complimentary airport shuttle easily transports guests between RDU and the hotel, with made-to-order breakfast and nightly receptions included in every stay, which is a genuine perk for traveling guests. Diverse catering packages include premium upgrades and unique touches like late-night snacks, so the food side is handled with flexibility. The elegant Flight Ballroom, with its antique mirrors, brass fretwork, and alabaster drum chandeliers, along with the water-wall Flight Deck patio, gives photographers a refined, polished range of backdrops. For the entertainment, the enclosed Flight Ballroom gives a wedding DJ acoustically controlled space to build sound and lighting into, so the reception fills the room and the dance floor stays packed within an elegant hotel setting.
