JW Marriott New Orleans

“Awesome” is how my husband and I would describe my daughter’s wedding at the JW Marriott in NOLA on Oct. 13, 2018.
As the Mother if the bride and bridal coordinator, my experience with planning seemed awkward when we had to work with several different people due to promotions or change of jobs. However, it was a blessing that I ended up with a team that made my daughter’s wedding one that would be remembered from a lifetime. The venue, food, handling of beverage service was first class. The staff not only knew intricacies of planning events, but also making everyone (bride, groom, parents and guest) feel welcomed during the entire stay.
Special thanks to Rhonda Murray (event manager), and her staff: Tory Lewis (set-up person), Schawanda Small (Bride/Grooms personal asst.), Shon Prior, Derrick Williams (beverages) & his staff, and our outstanding Chef Ricardo and his staff for the delicious food.
Ann Elise did not fail on her promises as she passed the torch. My Daughter & Son-in Law’s dreams were executed at the JW Marriott NOLA. You will not be disappointed!

We had a last minute difficulty with the venue we primarly chose for our wedding reception but thankfully we were able to find an opening at JW Marriott.. Emily Jensen was great! we loved working with her, very attentive and sweet.
The entire staff was very friendly and very professional our guest loved their stay. The hotel itself is very beautiful newly remodeled with long balconys that over look Canal Street . We hosted a welcoming cocktail hour at Fogo De Chao that Emily helped us put together and everyone loved it!
Shwand was our butler , she was AMAZING! really went above and beyond to make sure we were ok the entire time . She brought over tons of food and drinks while we were waiting to be introduce at the reception , she made us feel confortable and relaxed. Derrick did an amazing job with the Banquet, our guest were very impressed with the presentation and did i mentioned the food was AMAZING! Everyone was talking about how awesome the food was at the reception.
After the reception they sent over Champagne and chocolate covered strawberries to our suite that was comped for 2 nights! The suite was so beatiful. They definitely made us feel like Royalty 100%.
We love JW and we will be going back very soon! Thank you so much for making our special day so wonderful !

My wedding reception was beautiful!!! All our friends and family complimented on the food and service, which was OUTSTANDING!! Our bridal attendant (Shawanda) was so amazing!!! My groom and I did not have to ask for a drink the whole night!! The staff was so welcoming and friendly, from the bellman to the bartenders! Also the bi-level suite was breathtaking!!! It was the perfect place to get ready in with all of my bridesmaids!! Everything was so perfect!!!
