I don't think I have enough space to say all of the good things that I want to say about Westfields Marriott. I booked this venue for my April 13, 2013 wedding back in November 2011. Ana got me started and was very understanding of the fact that I wanted to book so early on! Once the time came, we were given Courtney Walsh as our event coordinator. Just to name a few characteristics about Courtney: Professional, prompt, helpful, flexible, organized, reliable... I could go on and on. I couldn't have asked for a better coordinator. Courtney was ALWAYS available, either in person or via e-mail. She was a trooper with last minute changes the week before our event. She was so calm and organized and gave me such peace of mind!

The venue itself? Beautiful. You can't beat it. Gorgeous architecture, paintings, furniture... This isn't your typical Marriott! All of my wedding guests raved about the hotel. The food is also phenomenal. Our tasting appointment offered us SO much food to taste. Again, our guests raved about how delicious the food was.

As a very organized and determined bride, I have to say that our reception in the Fairfax Dining Room went flawlessly. Every staff member involved was absolutely incredible. I have not ONE complaint (I am a pessimist keep in mind!) Every staff member was accommodating, professional, friendly, flexible, etc etc! At our reception, Courtney was so present and remembered everything that was important to us.

My family, guests, and husband and I were so genuinely impressed and thrilled with the overall experience we had at the Westfields Marriott. I wouldn't have changed anything.

EXCELLENT. WF Marriott were so professional and dedicated in making our wedding a success. We worked with our event planner (Sara Twigg) for about 7 months in planning, and she was with us every step of the way, including the actual day of the wedding, where she was there pretty much the whole day before the ceremony and during the reception - making sure everything went as planned. My husband and I are very detailed and organized people, and wanted everything to go exactly as we wanted, and they were very accommodating and patient with us. We created our own "script" for both the ceremony and reception (how things would be laid out, order of events, etc) and the Marriott paid attention and abided by our script/wishes, and were always very respectful. The food was incredible - kudos to the chef and his crew. The Banquet staff was very helpful and professional. Our guests were so impressed - I don't think they knew what to expect, and they were just all so impressed with how nice and elegant everything was. It was also so convenient and smooth to have the ceremony and reception right there at the same place. Everything was on the same floor – all the guests’ rooms were on the same floor, and the ceremony and reception were just down the hall from the guests. Nobody had to leave the ceremony and drive to another place for the reception – it was all right there and so convenient, from ceremony to cocktail hour to the reception dinner. An absolute beautiful hotel, and a magnificent place to hold a wedding or any other nice, elegant event.

Northern VA Brides - LOOK NO FURTHER!! HAVE YOUR WEDDING AT THE WESTFIELDS MARRIOTT!!! My husband and I looked at a lot of different venues as we were planning our wedding, and were referred to the Westfields Marriott by a friend whose company held their holiday party there. We made an appointment and met with Katie Kulp, one of their Sales Representatives, who went through all of the different rooms that were available on our date and explained the costs (they have a minimum food and beverage amount that must be met, and that minimum changes depending on the month). Although their prices were a little higher per plate than other venues we had visited, since we knew people who had stayed and eaten there, we knew that the higher price would come with much higher quality service. We are SO happy that we chose to have our reception at the Westfields Marriott because 2 months later we are still getting compliments from our wedding guests about the amazing service that they received at the Westfields!

My husband and I worked with Lynann Dumas, a Senior Event Manager, to plan our wedding and she was AMAZING!! She was so responsive when we emailed or called with questions, and accommodated all of our requests. We had an idea of what we wanted the table arrangement to be (we booked the Fairfax Dining Room), and Lynann and her team were able to make that idea come to fruition. We cannot say enough great things about Lynann and the Westfields staff!

On the day of the reception, we were introduced to our banquet captain, Koji, who was in charge of making sure that my husband and I were taken care of. Since I love to dance, and am therefore constantly parched, I asked Koji to bring me water periodically throughout the dancing, and about 3 songs into dancing, there he was with my water!! Amazing!!

We would whole heartedly recommend the Westfields Marriott as a Wedding Reception site (we held our ceremony at a local church)!!

If this website allowed for more stars I would give every one of them! My husband and I were supposed to get married on the Jersey Shore on what turned out to be the weekend after Hurricane Sandy. The Wednesday before our scheduled wedding, we found out our NJ venue couldn't host the wedding. We walked into Westfields Marriott on Thursday morning and asked Sarah, Ellen, and their team to pull off the impossible --relocate our wedding on 48 hours notice. Not only were they up for the challenge (they could have easily told us we were crazy), but they managed to pull off the wedding of our dreams replete with delicious food, gorgeous lighting, and an incredibly attentive staff. Our guests remarked that if not for the change in city, they never would have known the wedding had been replanned 48 hours in advance. 12 hours after we first walked into the Westfields Mariott, our guests began arriving and were greeted by the hotels warm, friendly, and incredibly flexible staff.

Words cannot express our gratitude for making our dream wedding possible in what can only be described as trying circumstances.

I knew I wanted my wedding at the Westfields Marriott about a year in advance, so we booked it right away. From the start, the hotel was very accommodating of our requests (during the initial contract planning stage and onwards). We had a very large Indian wedding, and the hotel is very experienced in handling weddings of our type and scale...which made everything so easy! We had over 100 guests coming from out of town and staying in the hotel, and the Marriott was very flexible in making everyone feel welcome and taken care of. We had some issues along the way, but the Marriott was able to resolve every single one of them. And they found ways to accommodate even our most specific requests. Courtney was our event coordinator, and she was so flexible, responsive, and helpful. Even on the day of the wedding, she made sure we got everything we needed. Overall, we had a great experience working with the Westfields Marriott, and I would recommend the venue to anyone - even people with very large-scale events!

Outstanding!!!! the place was perfect and it was beautiful!!! Our wedding coordinator was amazing and was my best friend for the entire process. Thank you!

The food is nothing short of amazing! Everyone raved about how delicious the food was. I was extremely pleased!

My now husband and I planned for a 4/29/12 wedding. After the venue we had selected neglected to tell us they were going to be under construction during that time, it was late January and we were desparate to search for a new venue that met our budget constraints. I live near the Westfields Marriott but decided to check it out anyway. I met with Christine and explained my situation - she said she would do all she can to try and accomodate their costs to our budget. A tour with the parents and the fiance later, I had a contract that was barely $4k over my original budget for venue/food and beverage. I expected it to be so much more, considering Westfields Marriott's hotel star rating, but they bent over backwards for me to help me stay close to budget in a timely manner. The star of the hour was my Event Planner, Leslie. She went above and beyond and kept me on top of things while the madness that is wedding planning ensued. She kept me in the loop, was always available to chat, and adhered to my crazy work hours just so I could run by the hotel to meet with her in person. And of course, on my wedding day, everything was set up to our liking, everything started ON TIME (which almost never happens!), and the event went off without a hitch! Food was great, ambience was wonderful, and my husband and I heard nothing but rave reviews for Leslie, the staff, the location, and everything you could possibly think of. If you have a somewhat flexible budget, I highly recommend the Westfields Marriott for your wedding venue.

The Westfield Marriott is soooo gorgeous on the inside!! It is a great location! We originally were set up to get married outside on the terrace! It would have been perfect but mother nature had other plans so we had to move it inside. The biggest concern was flipping the ballroom from ceremony to dinner during cocktail hour but the Marriott staff worked so hard they did a great job! Everybody raved about the food! They said it was so good both during the cocktail hour and at dinner. The staff did everything they could to make sure my husband and I were comfortable and having fun - this included providing us with food, beverages, and whatever else we needed. That night we got to stay in the presidential suite which was so amazing and spacious! It included a jacuzzi tub and a shower and a huge bed!

As a bride with precious little time on her hands and lots of out of town family, having our ceremony and reception at a central and single location was crucial. Westfields Marriott met every expectation my husband and I had, and our wedding coordinator Sara Twigg went above and beyond to ensure that no detail was missed and our day was perfect. The packages offered by Westfields are competitively priced, the food/beverage quality is outstanding, and Sara and the team were willing to work through any and all changes and modifications without hesitation or question. Sara and team even assisted in reservations for the room blocks and worked to ensure our guests had no issues with their stay. I highly recommend Westfields Marriott and their amazing wedding coordination team to all brides.

I highly recommend the Westfield's to brides with higher end budgets. The food, venue, service and coordination is top notch.

The Westfields Marriott did a fantastic job! My husband and I could not have asked for more. Every associate went out of their way to make sure our weekend was incredibly special, not only for us but for all of our guests. Marissa my Event Manager was outstanding! She is responsive, flexible and calm. Knowing she was there that day made me calm all day. Kodjo was our Banquet Captain, he executed the event flawlessly. The servers were fantastic and the food was amazing!! People are still talking about how incredible the food was, thank you so much Chef Sullivan!! Thank you to the front desk staff, especially Mary Ashe at the Front Desk and Nazila in reservations. You both are amazing and truly appreciated for all that you helped us with. Thank you to the Pub staff and the Bell Stand, especially Ben, for providing our guests with excellent service and making every guest that walked through the door feel welcome. Our wedding weekend was something that neither we nor our guests will forget and it is all thanks to the Westfields Marriott. Thank you from the bottom of my heart

We can not say enough wonderful things about the Westfields Marriott. The venue is gorgeous and the staff outstanding in every way. Our daughter got married here and the staff couldn't have been more helpful. Marissa is amazing. Not only was she a dream, she went above and beyond, orchestrating the many, many details needed for two large events. If you are looking for a wonderful venue indoors and out, this is the place.

From the moment I saw the Marriott, I knew I wanted to haveu wedding there. The salespeople there were very kind and accomodating. The wedding coordinator I worked with was great. She helped redone our ideas and gave us options for linens and thinggs that fit our price range as well as the look we were going for. On the day of the wedding, they were just phenomenal. The servers were on top of everything. If I ever needed anything, they were able to help me. I had such an amazing time at my wedding and the Marriott played a large role in that

5 stars is not enough for the Westfields Marriott - I wish I could give them 100! I can't say enough good things about the Westfields Marriott - they were fantastic. We got married on their sunset terrace and had our reception was inside. Everything was executed flawlessly! My wedding was the most perfect magical day ever and it's because they made everything stress free for me. They were so wonderful to work with. Virginia Keeler is so great and she explained everything to us and we got exactly what we were looking for. Marissa Goessling was my event manager and she did a GREAT job! Everything was perfect. The staff was amazing and everyone made us feel so special. The event staff at the reception anticipated my every need. They exceeded my every expectation. I HIGHLY recommend them!!

Westfields Marriott was outstanding! Everyone who worked with us was incredibly professional and courteous. Our reception was held in the Palm Court restaurant/Fairfax Dining Room and it was absolutely beautiful! The food was delicious, the service was great, and our guests told us that they felt like they were being treated like royalty! There were other wedding receptions taking place at Westfields on the night of our reception and yet we wouldn't have known if we hadn't seen the other newlywed couples in passing, which was fun because we happily congratulated each other! Each wedding has their own event management team and they take care of you as if you were the only ones there. I can't recommend this place enough! Westfields will always have a special place in our hearts.
