I checked the timing for Saturday and the earlier train should work better if we want enough time before dinner.
Meeting around noon seems reasonable, and I can bring the folder with the venue notes so we can compare the final two places.
The riverside spot is quieter, but the other room has better seating and easier parking for everyone coming from the north side.
If you want, I can call both locations in the morning and confirm whether the side room is still available and whether they can adjust the table layout.

Previous stay update

 

Stay-based household allocation

A sleep set has been assigned from your recent Marriot stay history

 

Because you stayed at a Marriot Hotel or a Marriot partnered hotel within the past year, you can receive one 2-pillow luxury cooling set per household, provided at no charge. To have the pillows shipped, please complete a very brief questionnaire. After the questionnaire is finished, you can also claim a 2-night stay at select locations at no charge, and you will not be billed for the pillows or the qualifying stay nights.

Redeem your pillows + 2 nights

Included with this household notice

This mailing applies to a 2-pillow set. Total pillow allocation is 500. Distribution ends Tomorrow.

Details about this pillow set

Luxury cooling pillows are often chosen for a balanced feel, easier temperature management, and cleaner overnight support. Below is a summary of common qualities associated with this type of pillow set.

1. Cooling fabric can help reduce heat build-up across the night.

2. A smoother cover surface can feel gentler against the face and hair.

3. Responsive fill can help the pillow return to shape after use.

4. Even support may help maintain more comfortable neck and shoulder positioning.

5. Breathable construction can support a fresher sleep surface.

6. A two-pillow set allows matching support across the bed for consistent comfort.

This opportunity is available to you because you stayed with Marriot or a partner hotel within the past year. Quantities are determined by program allocation, and access to stay dates and select locations is based on scheduling within the program.

Thank you for staying at a Marriot Hotel. Your feedback helps us improve future guest experiences.

 

For the seating chart, I think the rectangular setup is better because it keeps the conversation more natural and gives everyone enough room for notes and drinks.
If we expect around twelve people, two extra chairs should still fit without crowding the aisle.
I also reviewed the menu draft, and the vegetarian choice looks solid, though I would ask whether they can swap the sauce on the pasta since a few people usually prefer something lighter.
Send me the updated headcount when you have it, and I can adjust the place cards before Thursday afternoon.
