Tampa Marriott Water Street

Really loved having my wedding at the Tampa Marriott Water Street!
They were very accommodating and helpful throughout the process of postponing and hosting a covid compliant wedding. The adjustments they made to make us safe was great. But most importantly execution was perfect- the team and staff were hard working and so helpful. Food & beverage was amazing. Everyone who helped coordinate our day did an amazing job!
As with most hotels, the team does change often which can make communication difficult. Especially during a pandemic! This may be the only downside to this venue (and typical again of many venues)

My husband and I loved having our wedding at the newly renovated Tampa Marriott Water Street! We really appreciated how accommodating and helpful they were throughout the process of postponing. Huge thank you to Brittany Erigo in particular, she was the one who helped us throughout the entire postponing process and she definitely helped ease a stressful situation. She was a pleasure to work with and also helped book my bridal shower at the JW Marriott across the street, which was also a huge success. As for our wedding, our ceremony was held right down the street at Sacred Heart Church so it was extremely convenient to get to and from the venue. Our room block was also held at the Tampa Marriott Water Street and all of our guests loved the rooms, the hotel and the fact that there was a lot to do nearby. My husband and I also had luxury suites booked for the weekend, we loved them as the suites are newly renovated and are very big so can accommodate a good number of people. Our cocktail hour was held in The Florida Ballroom Foyer, followed by our reception in The Florida Ballroom. All of our vendors and coordinators at the hotel worked together to make our special day the best day of our lives thus far. Our entire wedding day ran so smoothly from start to finish. My bridesmaids and I were able to get our hair and makeup done in one of the meeting rooms next to the ballroom, which was super helpful and accommodating so that our suite didn't get too messy. The ballroom ended up looking absolutely breathtaking (shout out to our amazing vendors) and all of the staff were so kind, professional, fun and helpful. Execution of the entire night was perfect. My husband and I had a dedicated staff just for ourselves the night of the wedding and it was a fantastic experience (Miriam was amazing). The food and drinks were also 10/10, everything tasted delicious. As our event manager, we worked with Jeni Wallace in the beginning but then began working with Christine Alejandro after the pandemic. Jeni & Christine were both always very kind and professional. I saw them both the night of our wedding and was able to thank them in person for everything they had done to ensure that our special day was everything and more. We were blessed to be able to have such a great experience working with the Marriott and truly wish we could relive our wedding day over and over again!

Marriott was absolutely amazing to work with throughout the entire planning, during and after our wedding. They're incredibly responsive and accommodating. We had staff dedicated just to my husband and I the entire night of our wedding which was fantastic. The food was great and the guests all raved. Jeni Wallace deserves her own props since she was the best!

This is a gorgeous hotel right in the heart of downtown Tampa. We booked a block of rooms here for our out-of-town guests and will also be using their suite to get the bridal and groom parties ready. The luxury suite they have is HUGE and will be perfect for getting ready. They are extremely accommodating and the staff has been wonderful to work with. They even let me take a self-guided tour of the luxury suite to make sure there would be enough room, there definitely will be! So excited for everyone to be housed under their amazing roof!

We are so happy with our decision to hold our wedding reception at the Tampa Marriott Waterside. We wanted a small wedding (~50 people), and it was important to us that all of our friends and family feel special. The Il Terrazzo room was the ideal location for this. The gorgeous outdoor area was perfect for the cocktail hour, and the room was transformed beyond what we had envisioned. We loved working with Luis Miranda, and he was so accommodating of the fact that we were planning from out of state. We felt very comfortable working with him and knew we were in good hands. The staff of the Marriott on the wedding day was beyond efficient and organized. It allowed me to relax and enjoy the event, knowing they had everything under control. The food was amazing, and the chef made everything perfectly to our specifications. The desserts were also phenomenal. We would definitely recommend the Marriott. I can't say enough positive things about the staff's friendliness and accommodation.

Luis Miranda is a god send! Nothing beats the Marriott Waterside. The most expensive hotels have low ballroom ceilings and they don't have the gorgeous outdoor ceremony location like the Marriott! They let me choose my own menu too for less than the set menu would have been! Hamburger & Cheeseburger slider bar, french fry bar, pasta bar and chicken and beef taco bar ;) They just started doing cakes in house and Sinai is amazing! The cake came out better than something you would see on one of those cake tv shows, I was so amazed it was like for a celebrity!

We loved the Marriott and so did all of our wedding guest! The hotel was absolutely beautiful and everyone we dealt with was so accommodating and professional. The location in the heart of downtown Tampa was perfect. There was this cute little outside bar right on the water next to the hotel that we all enjoyed. Champions Sports Bar in the lobby was fantastic! The food was delicious and the staff were great! We had a meet-n-greet-party the night before the wedding at Champions and it was perfect. Manja Blanchard, the food and beverage sales coordinator, was amazing. She truly went above and beyond while assisting us with our entire weekend. The rooms were great. The breakfast buffet was delicious. The views of the city and water were spectacular. We will definitely be staying here whenever we are in Tampa and all our guest say the same thing.

There really are not enough nice things that I can say about Tampa Marriott Waterside, the event manager Katie Edwards, her staff, the chef Josh, his staff, and just everything. The entire night went off without a hitch, everything was perfect. Everyone was absolutely so nice and so helpful. There was one server, I think her name was Roseo? But she was absolutely wonderful. She attended specifically to my husband and I. She always made sure my husband had a drink and I stayed hydrated throughout the night. She made sure we sat down and ate (which is a big deal) and she even helped me fix my hair and bustle my gown. She was so so helpful. But my ravings can't stop there! The food! Omg the food was amazing, my guests were not only eating they were stuffed. Also, the staff was nice enough to pack up some togo boxes of food for my husband and I to have in the suite later because they knew we would be hungry after such a long night. I could just keep going and going about this place, Tampa Marriott Waterside thank you so much for going above and beyond my expectations. I was one happy bride!

Wonderful experience all round from start to finish. Every staff member from valet to managers were all helpful, professional and courteous. They went above and beyond to accommodate our needs and to make our experience at the Marriott a wonderful one. Katie (our event manager) was a doll. Friendly, easy-going, and just a joy to work with. We're so happy we chose the Marriott Waterside for our wedding. The venue is beautiful, well maintained, friendly staff, and great food. Our guests were impressed and we all enjoyed this great hotel. Would definately have another event at this venue.

All I can say about this hotel is that it was soooo amazing
Having our wedding here. The service was five star all the way.
I only wish we could have stayed a couple more days.

I loved that they have a nice sports bar downstairs and their waterside
Cafe has the best breakfast buffet and dinner.
They also have another restaurant downstairs I will have to try out another time because
I do plan to go back.

I had Sheryl St johns as my cordinator and she was
So easy to work with and made my wedding less stressful.
We had our cocktail hour on the back patio and that was
Just so wonderful.
I would definitely recommend this hotel to future
Brides and grooms. It is soooo worth it ;)
We got a free suite for our wedding night and
The view was amazing. We got 2 bottles of champagne,
Chocolate covered strawberries,and they even had two pieces
Of our wedding cake sent to our suite :)

What a wonderful hotel to get married at and
I will always remember the wonderful service
And how special my wedding day was thanks to Sheryl and the
Marriott waterside hotel staff.
