The Madison Concourse Hotel & Governor's Club

The Madison Concourse Hotel was amazing for our wedding. They were professional, responsive and provided great service! Our reception was beautiful, elegant and everything we hoped for. My husband and I highly recommend the Concourse Hotel for your event.

The Concourse was highly recommended to me by a close friend who had her wedding at the Concourse a few years ago, and we are very glad we chose to work with them for our wedding reception.

Jenni at the Concourse is absolutely AMAZING. She quickly responded to emails and phone calls throughout the entire wedding planning process. We had a few last minute (day of) guest list changes and she quickly and smoothly accommodated the additional guests who decided to show up. It was such a relief to know that we did not have to stress or worry during our reception. We were able to show up and enjoy the night without worrying about the details because she had everything under control.

The entire reception ran smoothly with the help of all of the Concourse staff. Everyone was friendly, professional, and provided excellent service to our...

My wedding was beautiful! All venues can be expensive, and the Concourse is definately not an exception. We worked with Jenni, and she was AWESOME! She was very quick to respond to whatever we needed, and she was very accommodating in regards to making sure we could have the evening exactly how we wanted. She was super patient and helpful. Our food was fanastic and the bar service was great. The hotel is gorgeous and was a great choice since most of our guests were from out of town. My day was perfect and I am so glad with the service provided by the Concourse.

The Concourse hotel was so great to work with for our wedding! They were prompt, professional and easy to work with! I could enjoy our wedding day without any worries about the venue set up or food. I would highly recommend The Concourse!

The Concourse Hotel was amazing. They were fair and up-front about their services and pricing. They included many services in their base prices that other vendors charge extra for. Everyone there was extremely helpful, both before, and during the event. Our coordinator, Jenni Thompson, was especially wonderful. She helped us with everything we needed. She met with us several times to answer all our questions and go over exactly how we wanted the event run. She and the rest of the staff at the Concourse pulled off our event flawlessly and exactly how we wanted. More than that, after our meetings, I had every confidence in Jenni and the rest of the Concourse that everything would work out and it really had a big impact on how much I was able to enjoy my wedding day, knowing that I didn't have to worry at all about anything at the receptio. I will recommend them to all engaged couples in and around the Madison area. Thanks so much!

The Concourse provided an elegant setting and wonderful food for our reception. People keep telling us it's the best wedding food they've had. The personal coordinator is a nice touch, although I sometimes felt like I had to ask the same question several times before getting an answer. A few minor details were not as expected, but overall the experience was wonderful. We had a fantastic wedding!

Everything was so well organized and ran SO smoothly! I didn't have to worry about a thing, and htey were very flexible during the reception! They had a lot of times to meet and set things up before hand, and the woman I worked with had a lot of great ideas and suggestions that made the whole thing really easy! Would do it over again! They gave me the perfect wedding reception!

The Concourse made my wedding more perfect than I could have even dreamed of!

Wedding planner was great! Day of the wedding and reception not so great. I had the pleasure of the other wedding attendents at another wedding coming to my side once their bar was closed out we had an open bar and were paying per drink so it cost us a lot of extra cost. This was after 9pm so I could not find someone to help get them out of my reception. I had asked a head of time about this and was told someone stands between the weddings and the doors would be closed. This was not the case. Oh and you could tell they were from the other wedding becaused the groomen and bridesmaids looked different. The bartenders were rude whe I asked then why they would serve people the were NOT from my wedding. Plus they were rude all night I waited in line for my drinks. OH and beware if you pay per drink they tend to snacth up your drinks fast if you set them down and say go to the bathroom. They lost my mugs I bought for the groom and best man. After the wedding was finished I ended up taking my gifts to my room myself (they said they would do it). They over charged me for items. I asked for guitar picks to be scattered on the table however they placed them at each napkin setting. They served my guest before serving us. During the planning you are rushed a lot of the time oh and for the tasting you have to go with a huge group of people. I really wish I to another location. The food did taste great.

I was over all happy but felt very rushed during the reception. The communication about our bill and pre-pay was poor on their end and the final bill was late getting to us and incorrect. Some of the incorrect items were fixed but some of the over charges we ended up eating just to move on with our lives. They lost our cake topper which I am not happy about, However they were very accommodating with rooms and parking. I felt they did try very hard to please us. I felt like they went above and beyond with some things but in hind sight, I feel when you give some one that much money, they should go above and beyond with everything. I was happy with a lot and disappointed with a few things so all in all they were a good vendor.

The Madison Concourse was amazing in all aspects. Coordinator Shana was attentive, helpful, and supportive. The space has been redone since the online photos were taken, and was perfect for our needs. The ability to walk upstairs to bed after a long day was also great. Guests loved the food, and the costs were reasonable. They are great!

We honestly had a great experience with the Concourse. We planned our wedding rather quickly so ended up going with a Friday night. We chose the Concourse because they offered a 10 percent discount for Friday night weddings. They bent over backwards to make our wedding wonderful, our wedding coordinator Jodie was fabulous. As the bride, I never had to worry about a thing! Her and my wedding coordinator Bill (The Wedding Guy) made sure that everything went perfectly. From being greeted at the reception in our own private room with champagne so I could bustle my dress, to waiters all serving the wedding party at once (very theatrical!) the whole reception was perfect. And we are still getting compliments on the food. When we went in to do our tasting, the chef actually ended up customizing a salad for us to go along with our three entree choices. We also had an appetizer buffet during cocktail hour that people just raved about. Plus the proximity to the Capital and downtown church where we were married couldn't be beat. Overall, awesome site.

The Madison Concourse Hotel is uniquely situated to provide a Bride and Groom with all the venues they need for a successful and memorable wedding. From rehearsal to rehearsal dinner, from wedding ceremony to reception to overnight accommodations, the Councourse has it all. And did we mention location? One block from the Capitol and State Street, the Concourse provides the best location, especially for out-of-town guests who want to see Madison's high points without having to drive around and park. Guests pull into the Concourse and never have to drive again until they leave. But more importantly, it is a beautiful facility, classy and elegant. But even more importantly, Shana and her team work with the Bride and Groom to create the menu and experience that the couple is looking for. We love officiation weddings at the Concourse for we know that everything about the venue will be wonderful!

We always love the opportunity to work with the staff at The Madison Concourse Hotel. The coordinators have been nothing short of accommodating each and every time we are out there. The space itself is great for a wedding reception...large enough to fit everything (photo booth, DJ, bar, dance floor) in the same room with plenty of space to walk around and lounge about...although we'd rather have you dancing! It's also a short hop, skip, and a jump to State Street and a multitude of bars to hit up after the official celebration has come to a close. Looking for a nice downtown Madison venue? Check these guys out!
