The day was truly amazing. Our Captains were AWESOME! They had everything perfect down to the smallest detail. People RAVED about the food. There were also so many guests from out of town who stayed at Hotel Covington and said it was one of the nicest they've stayed at, and they want to come back to Cincinnati and stay there again. Almost all of our guests said it was the best wedding they've ever been to.

Thank you so so much, the day truly exceeded our expectations. You are all amazing. I can't thank you enough!

The Madison Event Center & Hotel Covington Staff has been phenomenal since day one. During planning, they probably answered hundreds, if not thousands, of emails I sent them! You can tell they love what they do and want the best for their couples. I had a couple of moments where I second-guessed every decision I made, and they called me to talk through it all. We had our ceremony at Hotel Covington and reception at The Madison. The entire day was beautiful!

The staff made sure our parents & grandparents had everything they needed. The staff also helped us clean up everything at the end of the night! We are sincerely grateful that we got married here.

The Madison Event Center was amazing to work with, and we are so lucky! Everything was very organized going into the day, so we didn't have to focus on the small details or anything, which was really great! Our wedding was truly amazing, we could not have asked for anything better! It all ran so smoothly, the food was amazing, and the service was great by everyone! Our Captain was AMAZING!! She helped so much of our families, too, and we are so grateful for her!

We are so incredibly happy with our experience and have already recommended the venue!


Nicole & matt

Everything was absolutely perfect—truly everything we dreamed of! I wish we could relive the whole day all over again. Our guests had nothing but amazing things to say and loved every part of the wedding. The food was delicious, and the service was outstanding. I would choose Hotel Covington and The Madison again in a heartbeat! A huge thank you to the team—I honestly don’t know what I would’ve done without their help. They made the planning process so easy and stress-free, and I’m beyond grateful for that!
Briana & Connor
I am still in shock how great this event was – I’ve been telling all my admin friends about the location and how easy it was to work with the team. I’m especially impressed with how well they accommodated the variety of dietary needs; the creativity involved was next-level. The guestrooms were very nice, and the staff were friendly and accommodating during their stays. Thank you again for your kindness, availability, and care. I am forever grateful that you allowed our team to make such wonderful memories in your beautiful spaces.
Katie with P&G
I wanted to host a roadshow for my organization here in the Bluegrass that gave the folks coming in from around the country or even around the state a wonderful Kentucky experience, and The Madison Event Center & Hotel Covington delivered just that. The Sales Manager, the Details Specialist, and everyone I interacted with ensured things ran smoothly. Don't let all the beautiful wedding photos fool you; this is also an amazing venue for your next business gathering of all sizes.
Bryan with OpenText
I’ve been doing this event for six years, and this is one of the best, if not the best, experiences all around. Thank you for all of your hard work.




Karen with LeadershIP KENTUCKY
Thank you to everyone at the Madison Event Center and Hotel Covington for making our wedding day absolutely perfect. Even months later, our friends and family are still talking about how beautiful everything was and how much fun they had! From the gorgeous décor and incredible food and drinks to the amazing event staff and seamless planning process, we truly could not have imagined a better experience. What stood out most to us was the team’s responsiveness, willingness to help, and ability to make planning stress-free — especially while planning from out of town on a short timeline.
We are so grateful to the entire team for helping create a day we will cherish forever!

Maggie & Connor
I dont even know where to start with how amazing the Madison is. This was the best decision I have ever made besides marrying my husband. 1000/10 highly recommend for your wedding venue. Booking the venue with the sales team, working with the details team, setting up with one of their Operations managers and the Captain on the wedding day, all were absolutely AMAZING. The food was great, the venue was absolutely perfect. I could go on and on. Everyone was so incredible to work with and I am so grateful this was my venue.
Payton & daniel
We couldn’t be happier with our decision to get married and celebrate at Hotel Covington & The Madison. We were so grateful for how easy the team made the entire planning process, from booking to execution. The team was incredibly helpful with decisions and pricing, and the tasting event made choosing food simple. The ceremony on the lawn was stunning, and the Emerald reception was flawless. The team treated us like royalty, always making sure our families and we were taken care of throughout the night. Every moment ran smoothly and on schedule, thanks to the staff’s incredible coordination. They even helped us load our belongings afterward, so we could fully enjoy our day.

We truly feel blessed and can’t recommend Hotel Covington & The Madison enough for making our wedding so special and stress-free.
Allie & SETH
Thank you for being there for us through the whole wedding process. It was clear our expectations we delivered to you were communicated and heard through the whole process. Thank you for always getting back to us quickly, being honest about various things while planning and always being so kind and personable. It was clear that you care about each of your couples you work with. We had an amazing wedding day at The Madison. Our Captain was phenomenal. She made sure everything ran smoothly, ensured we were taken care of and our guests. We can not say enough great things about her and the staff that evening. Our guests have raved about our wedding night and I attribute that to you, and the rest of the staff at The Madison.

Thank you again for making our big day perfect.
Demi & Brian
Thanks for being a great host to our group! The best part was working with you. Your communication and planning was incredibly valuable. You were quick to respond, had solutions to all our random questions and problems, and your experience and knowledge was a major part of why this event was successful.
Pat with MCC Label
Our wedding day was absolutely perfect, The Madison made everything so easy. Our captains were fantastic; we felt taken care of and listened to. Truly, all of the staff were incredibly professional and helpful. Our guests raved about the food, how beautiful the day was, and how smoothly the reception ran. I could go on and on about this day. The "all-inclusiveness" and beauty of the venue were not all that sold us; the team was also a factor. From our very first conversation, the team was patient, helpful, and willing to help wherever needed. We appreciated all of the advice along the way — everyone was attentive and truly helped us make our day beautiful. Communicating with the team was easy, and I am thankful for all they've done.
Anna & KYLE
The staff was amazing to work with! Our meeting structure changed dramatically after booking the venue and their team helped us brainstorm alternative options and were very accommodating with all our requests. Truly a great team to work with!
