Question 1

Do hotel room block services from The Benefit Block cost anything?

Accepted Answer

No — our hotel room block concierge services are completely complimentary. Clients never pay us directly; we are compensated by the hotel you choose, and 50% of that amount is donated to the charity you select during your booking inquiry.

Question 2

What is a courtesy room block?

Accepted Answer

A courtesy block holds a set of hotel rooms for your guests at a group rate with no financial commitment from you. Unbooked rooms go back to the hotel at the cutoff date, so you never pay for empty rooms.

Question 3

Where do you book wedding room blocks?

Accepted Answer

We book hotel room blocks for weddings and events anywhere in the United States and abroad.

Question 4

Are hotel room block rates discounted for groups?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Each hotel room block we negotiate represents the lowest published rate the hotel can offer, typically around 20% lower than the standard website price. This ensures your group gets the best value for their stay.

Question 5

When should I book a hotel room block for my wedding?

Accepted Answer

Most couples reserve 6 to 12 months before the wedding, especially in popular destinations or peak season. If your date is sooner, reach out anyway, since we can often still secure a block.

Question 6

How does the charity donation work?

Accepted Answer

After your wedding, we donate 50% of the revenue we earn from the hotel to the charity you choose when you submit your request. If you don’t pick one, we donate to cancer research.

Question 7

What are the benefits of booking a hotel room block through The Benefit Block?

Accepted Answer

Booking a hotel room block through The Benefit Block comes with multiple benefits beyond discounted rates and handling the booking process for you. All of our clients are protected from a variety of situations that can arise, including:

1. Hotels starting renovations during your contracted dates  
2. Changes in hotel management affecting quality or brand  
3. Overbooked hotels requiring guests to be moved to another property while still providing assistance

Question 8

Will my guests and I earn hotel rewards points when booking a hotel room block?

Accepted Answer

Yes! You and your guests can still earn rewards points with your hotel room block.

- To receive planner bonus points, provide your rewards number to our team when selecting your hotel. You’ll receive the points after your group’s stay.

- Guests can earn points by logging into their accounts through the booking link and completing their reservation, just like booking normally on the hotel website.

Question 9

Do you work with wedding planners?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We partner with wedding planners and venues to handle hotel room blocks for their clients at no cost to the planner or the couple.
