A Sweet Reception In Wilmington

If you were to ask my opinion of the East Coast's most romantic and nostalgic hotels, Hotel du Pont would be one of my Top Ten favorites. Affectionate charm and elegant sophistication runs rampant in this highly prestigious Wilmington hotel. Situated close to Winterthur Museum, Garden, and Library, Delaware Art Museum, the Longwood Gardens and Conservatories and more, there is no shortage of rich heritage and culture that surround the building.Hotel Dupont wedding entertainment

The architectural décor of Hotel du Pont's magnificent Gold Ballroom features rich wood and hand-crafted medallions of twenty famous women of history, from Helen of Troy to Cleopatra. The hardwood floors and thirty-foot high ceilings "wow" every first-time visitor.

However... There is a distinct trade-off. Due to the size and expanse of the Gold Ballroom, the acoustics are similar to a canyon.

Not to sound like a commercial, but fortunately I was using the Bose L1 sound columns. Their sound dispersion filled the room with the clearest of sound, heard the same from any spot in the ballroom.

According to Jillian Cournoyer, Senior Catering Sales Manager of the Hotel du Pont: "I love your sound system. It looks great and sounds better than anything else I ever hear in this room. When I'm standing in the foyer, waiting for the introductions to begin, most DJs and Bands sound like they're shouting into a CB radio. I love you guys!"

Speaking of love, it was totally obvious that Chelsea and Allen are a great match. Their friends and family really seemed to enjoy every moment of the celebration. I personally had a GREAT TIME!

Congratulations, Chelsea and Allen!
