Art Ovation hosted an intimate wedding reception in the Overture Restaurant for 32 guests. Felicia Lopresto was with us from the initial meeting, to recommending vendors, to our menu tasting, to the actual wedding reception! She is always quick to respond, very professional, and extremely efficient. She was nothing but kind and helpful throughout the entire process. We feel we were quoted a fair price and that is exactly what we paid in the end. The reception began with a "mocktail" hour with small bites followed by a plated dinner and dancing. We would highly recommend Art Ovation, Overture Restaurant, and especially, Felicia Lopresto! Fantastic experience!

Art Ovation was perfect for our small wedding! We had a hotel block for guests, cocktail hour, and reception for our small beach wedding. All the staff helped to make our special day memorable, from the valet to the general manager, but especially Felicia our events manager, and the wait/kitchen/bar staff. We met with Felicia several times for tastings and to make sure all the details were taken care of. She remembered all the deails, even our dog's name. She was also there to hep fluff out my wedding gown for pictures. We love Sarasota for the arts and culture, so we thought Art Ovation was a perfect place to celebrate our wedding. It is an impressive art gallery, and we loved to be surrounded by art from local artists as we celebrated.

e and the food was amazing. We had stations and each one was more amazing than the next with plenty of food and friendly attendants. The chef was there to make sure everything went smoothly along with their banquet manager Michael who checked in throughout the night to make sure everything went well. Asa, Cristina and Felicia in the sales office also made it a seamless process giving us multiple tours for planning purposes and detailed floor plans. The property is gorgeous and located close to everything, but it would not have been the same without the incredible staff.

ail with the culinary creations was truly a masterpiece that created little works of art! Every bite I tasted was delicious from the gourmet ramen noodles, to the chocolate mousse and so many other fun things. The rooms are modern, clean and cleverly appointed with thoughtful touches and an incredible selection of snacks at the mini bar. I especially loved the popcorn, pretzel, chocolate, chip crunchy mix stuff. Yummy! The rooftop bar, cabanas and pool is breathtaking. Such a fun, hip vibe with incredible views of Sarasota. My husband worked out in the gym and he was very impressed with the selection of equipment. I swam in the pool and lounged in a cabana and it was delightful. The ballroom has a one-of-a-kind artistic ceiling that lights up in all different colors. The lobby had a live pianist playing. Nothing boring at all about this property! Every element is artistic, tasteful, unique, hip, modern and creative.
