Frequently Asked Questions

Can we host both our ceremony and reception at the DoubleTree Bakersfield?

Yes, the DoubleTree offers versatile indoor event spaces that can be configured for both ceremony and reception within the same venue. This eliminates the need for guest transitions between locations and simplifies logistics for your wedding day. The hotel's ballroom can be divided or opened to accommodate your ceremony setup with a stage or podium, then reconfigured for dining and dancing during your reception. Your dedicated event coordinator will work with you to plan the timeline and layout that best suits your vision.

What are the advantages of having our wedding guests stay at the same hotel?

On-site accommodations eliminate transportation concerns and allow your guests to relax and celebrate without worrying about driving. It creates an extended celebration atmosphere where your wedding party can gather before and after events. The hotel can block rooms at group rates, making it convenient for you to communicate logistics with guests. Out-of-town attendees particularly appreciate the convenience of staying steps away from your ceremony and reception.

Does the DoubleTree Bakersfield provide catering and bar services?

As a full-service hotel with complete kitchen facilities, the DoubleTree offers comprehensive catering services with experienced culinary and beverage teams. Your event coordinator can discuss menu options, bar packages, and service styles that align with your preferences and budget. The hotel handles food preparation, presentation, and service logistics, ensuring a polished dining experience for your guests. This integrated approach simplifies coordination since your venue, accommodations, and catering are all under one management.

How much space do we need to know about for ceremony setup and photography?

The DoubleTree's indoor ballroom spaces provide controlled environments perfect for photography with professional lighting and elegant backdrops. Flexible room configurations allow you to designate ceremony and cocktail areas separately, creating distinct photo opportunities throughout your celebration. The hotel's professional staff can advise on optimal setup for your photographer's needs. Indoor venues offer the advantage of weather-free photography without concerns about wind, sun glare, or unexpected changes.

Is the DoubleTree Bakersfield a good choice for a large wedding?

With capacity for up to 500 guests and a full hotel operation, the DoubleTree is well-suited for large, formal weddings requiring extensive coordination. The on-site event team has experience managing events at scale, handling everything from room setup to catering logistics to guest accommodations. Multiple event spaces and the hotel's operational infrastructure mean you have the resources for elaborate celebrations, multiple events (rehearsal dinner, day-after brunch), and guest comfort. The central Bakersfield location provides accessibility for guests traveling from across the region.
