There are not enough words to describe how AMAZING Leorah and Lindsey are. They accommodated EVERY need and made sure that my husband and I had the brunch reception of our dreams. From the customized menu, to the specialty cocktail - which everyone loved! - to the exact look and feel I was going for these ladies are on it! The staff was also great - keeping everything running smoothly and calmly.

Planning a wedding is something I never want to do again, but if I had to, I would have to have Leorah and Lindsey on my team again. Thank you!!

We were 100% thrilled with the staff at the JW Marriott during our wedding and wedding planning and would highly recommend using this venue for a wedding or special event. Lindsey and Leorah went above and beyond in helping us put together our entire wedding. Every last detail was thought of and executed in the most professional, beautiful way. Lindsey and the catering staff went above their normal duties on the day of our wedding by putting together our centerpieces and taking down our huppah (since we did not hire a florist) and did so with gracious smiles. The coordination was completely perfect down to every place setting, the ceremony timing, catering to multiple preferences and requests and timing of appetizers, dinner buffet, dessert and late night snack. Lindsey and Leorah always responded to emails cheerfully and in timely manners and we felt like they really, truly cared that our day went off without any problems and made sure we were happy and satisfied the entire time. They are patient, kind, professional, organized and complete pleasures to work with. I had pictured what I wanted the day to look like, and it ended up exceeding all my expectations and was a day beyond my wildest dreams. They created a magical experience, a cozy and elegant ambiance, catered a delicious meal (our guests were talking about how tasty the food was for weeks after the wedding!) and made a completely perfect wedding we will never forget. The other hotel staff - concierge, front desk staff, bell hops, servers, bartenders, valets - were always at our service with smiles and offering to help whenever they could. Everyone was patient and well coordinated - it is clear they put a premium on customer service and this added to the easy-going energy we felt the whole weekend. Our guests were very pleased with their rooms and the hotel service as well. The entire experience - from the first meeting to the end of our wedding night - was a dream come true.

We had both our ceremony and reception at the JW. Lindsey was awesome and very helpful every step of the way. I was planning the wedding from a different city and she was always available for any questions I had. She has a lot of experience and it definitely shows!

We were married on October 26, 2013 and held our reception at the JW Marriott Cherry Creek. Our guests had such a wonderful time. From hanging out at the fire pit of Second home after the rehearsal dinner to the wonderful appetizers at our cocktail hour, to the amazing food at the reception, our guests have not stopped raving about the experience.

Lindsay is absolutely outstanding. My husband and I are extremely busy with work. Lindsay took the time to meet with us during lunch to plan/taste food. she communicated effectively via email message and telephone. Lindsay listened to our creative vision and did everything that she could to make our event completely stress free. When an issue arose with the AV part of our wedding, she immediately rectified the situation. Lindsay is a true professional.

I would highly recommend the JW Marriott. The hotel staff is amazing and courteous, the venue is in a beautiful location, the food is outstanding, and as far as weddings go, you really get a bang for your buck here--which is rare with anything wedding related...

Cheers to a beautiful experience! Thank you Lindsay!!

I cannot speak highly enough of our experience with Lindsay and the entire JW Marriott staff. We were very specific about certain aspects of our wedding, and the hotel was just phenomenal in pulling everything together. The ceremony space outside was beautifully redone, and can really take on any image that you are trying to create. Even with a winter wedding, the outdoor experience was just gorgeous. The fire pits and lights give it a "Colorado feel" without having to travel to the mountains.

The one thing I would love to specifically point out was the food at the hotel. As a chef myself, this was a huge concern for me. Lindsay and the JW staff catered to our every little demand and the food was PHENOMENAL. We recieved dozens of phone calls about how big the portions were and how great it all tasted. Mine was even great in our room at 1 am!

What I love most about JW is how special they made us feel throughout the entire wedding process. Lindsay noted even the smallest detail and executed it all perfectly. From remembering which guests had meal restrictions, to having the most gorgeous suite ever for us for the weekend, and EVEN bustling my dress outside... she's really one of a kind and does everything to make you feel the same way. I would get married again and again just to have the same wonderful experience.

We recently had our wedding at the JW and it was in one word - magnificent. Everything from start to finish was flawless - our contact at the JW was knowledgable and insightful in helping with everything from menu tasting to confirming and reconfirming details up to an hour prior. Our family and friends have been raving about our day and I would highly reccomend the JW to anyone planning their big day!!!

What a wonderful experience and beautiful environment! We had our wedding ceremony and reception in the outdoor terrace. Everyone LOVED the atmosphere and set up for the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. Our guests continue to compliment us on the food selection, saying it was the best food they’ve ever tasted at a wedding. We HIGHLY recommend this venue! It’s beautiful, but the staff is what really makes this place shine.
Lindsay Alesio made the planning process practically stress free for us. She was communicative, professional and on top of things 100% of the time. We told her our vision and she delivered more than we imagined. She facilitated and coordinated everything perfectly the day of the wedding. She was structured and authoritative - much needed for our bridal party of 16. I can’t say enough about her. She is THE best. Love her!
Travis, in house audio visual, delivered on our vision for our draping and hanging paper lanterns. Pleasure working with him.
The chef, banquet captain, bartender and servers were so accommodating and prompt. Everything appeared effortless and seamless. The staff interacted and mixed well with our guests. We give their crew a 10+
The bridal suite the night before and night of the wedding was beautiful. The suite wasn’t ready after the wedding, but Jay at the front desk (so professional and personable) sent his crew up and got the room ready quickly. He even came up to make sure it was to our standards and his!
Ben, our bellhop, gave us a tour of the room upon arrival, brought everything up and helped load the cars and gather our decorations the day after. He went above and beyond with every interaction we had with him. He overheard me say I was dehydrated and filled our sink with ice and 8 bottles of water to keep us hydrated! I can’t say enough about his personality and unbelievable customer service. What an asset to the JW Marriott!

I just wanted to tell you all of you at the JW Marriott Cherry Creek, how thankful I am for the work you put in to our wedding. I know that you went out of your way to please my family and I, and it was a huge a success. All of our guests can't stop talking about the phenomenal service and exceptional food. I have heard that our wedding was the best wedding that many of our guests have ever been to because of the service, decor, and the plentiful assortment of food! The staff, especially Bianca, were tremendously friendly and professional. I had such a wonderful time and I can't imagine a more perfect venue and our wedding coordinator Lindsay Alesio was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was professional, detail orientated, and genuine-I would recommend Lindsay and the rest of the staff at the JW Marriott to any bride wanting a classy affair to remember.

Thank you again and again!

We actually used the JW Marriott for one evening before the wedding. The hotel is beautiful and service unparalleled. I am actually planning to go back just for the weekend.

Betsy at the JW Marriott in Cherry Creek helped create the perfect summer garden wedding in the outside terrace. We loved this venue because our guests didn't have to move far once they arrived for the ceremony. After the ceremony, guests enjoyed cocktails and snacks in the area outside the bar while the JWM staff flipped the ceremony space into a beautiful reception space. We didn't even notice it was happening and all of the sudden it was done and wonderfully put together. Betsy coordinated with all of our vendors so I didn't have to. The food was really delicious-like a fancy restaurant, not standard wedding food. I ABSOLUTELY recommend the JW Marriott at Cherry Creek for a wedding site. They put us up in a top floor suite afterwards-a great end to a great day.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
