Melinda did an outstanding job! She made sure we were very well taken care off while we were there for our beach ceremony. The service and the warm welcome we received from the Ritz and from Melinda was second to none! Even tho it was a small intimate beach wedding with a backup room and champagne toast at the Ritz, they've made us fell like a million bucks! We got the cutest gift box from the hotel too, I will make sure to recommend Melinda and the Ritz Carlton at Bal Harbour to anyone who wants to make their special day unforgettable in the best way! Even tho we decided to get married last minute, they made it look like every single detail was carefully planned for months and flawlessly executed. I'm 100% satisfied and thrilled!

If you wanted to test a venue's ability to host a high-end, quality affair, you might give them only 6 weeks to plan a formal wedding for a bride and groom who live 2,500 miles away with a band that has never performed at the venue before. We tested the Ritz-Carlton Bal Harbour with this challenge in February and they graded out at an A+. As to Keith Willard (the Director of Catering)--he scored an A++. The Ritz takes care of just about everything and the few things that are not in their control (i.e. florist and photographer) they guide you through how best to approach and they give you references of wonderful professionals who have lots of experience working with the Ritz. We could not have had a more beautiful setting for wedding photos. We could not have had a more beautiful ceremony outside overlooking the ocean. We could not have had a better cocktail hour outside with a trio playing by the water fountain overlooking the ocean. And we could not have had a better wedding celebration which was high energy and tremendous fun. It was all perfectly executed from beginning to end. The Ritz-Carlton Bal Harbour is simply a beautiful location for a wedding. And Keith Willard was in large part responsible for everything coming together so perfectly and for making this a memory that exceeded our expectations. Keith's title is Director of Catering but he is so much more than that. Keith has everything organized and under control. He is the Minister of Calm--nothing rattles him--everything remains "easy peasy." He doesn't miss a thing. He is extremely loving to the bride and family. He is always available and remains a calming force for all involved. He ensures your wedding will be a stress free experience...and ours truly was. His staff was outstanding! We highly recommend The Ritz-Carlton Bal Harbour for your wedding day. You can be very sure Keith and his team will make this day everything you dreamed of and more.

Everyone was very accommodating all weekend. The wait staff during the reception were particularly incredible; they made sure that the bride and groom got a chance to eat before and during the reception. They even kept the hotel bar open late and arranged a midnight snack for the guests who wanted to keep the party going after the reception ended!
