Outstanding for Wedding Room Block

The Westin Governor Morris was absolutely an outstanding hotel for us and our out of town guests to stay for our daughter’s wedding weekend.
Even though our daughter was married in our hometown church in Bernardsville and had reception at the Mansion at Natirar, the majority of our guests staying at the hotel (131) traveled to New Jersey from all over New England, North Carolina, Illinois,Florida, California and even Norway. We knew having a great place for them all to stay was incredibly important and was one of the first things we booked when she got engaged. Our wedding planners, Peony Events, highly recommended the Westin Governor Morris and they were so right! Our meetings with Christina were so reassuring and we knew we were in good hands. We booked Welcome Drinks at the Blue Morel, planned a Farewell Breakfast, reserved the Presidential Suite and a large room block including several rooms for us. Christina kept us updated on reservations and helped us increase the block since so many guests were booking early. Christina also took care of reserving 3 motor coaches to take our hotel guests to and from the reception, which was included with the room block, such a wonderful perk of staying at the Westin.
Everything went fantastic the weekend of the wedding from the drop off of 80 Welcome Bags (thanks Narissa!), the Welcome Drinks for over 100 guests (thanks Kevin!), smooth transportation to and from reception (thanks A-1) and a fabulous breakfast on Sunday to end the weekend wedding celebration!
The service was outstanding all around! Many thanks to Christina and the staff of the Westin. We would highly recommend the Westin Governor Morris!

Excellent Hotel for Room Blocks

We used the Westin Governor Morris for our wedding room block this weekend and we were more than satisfied. We worked with Christina throughout the entire process and she was fantastic. She helped us through postponing our wedding and getting a couple of last minute guests their rooms. The hotel is gorgeous and extremely clean. The junior suite was spacious enough for seven bridesmaids and the moms to get ready, and it was conveniently located to our venue (Basking Ridge Country Club). We highly recommend this hotel!

Great Experience, Highly Recommend!

My new wife and I recently partnered with The Westin Governor Morris for our wedding block, and they were incredibly helpful + easy to work with. Christina and the full Westin team made our entire process as frictionless and positive as possible. Her team quickly accommodated last minute changes, and truly contributed to making our wedding the success that it was. The hotel is going above and beyond with safety protocols to ensure that all guests feel both welcome and protected. The rooms themselves are beautiful, clean, recently updated, and spacious (not to mention reasonably priced). All of our guests had a seamless experience with their stay, and commented on how friendly the full staff were.

The hotel itself has a beautiful lobby with a bar, and is also located in a convenient location, right next to major highways as well as close to activities in town. It boasts a large parking lot, and a classic structural design.

If getting married in the area highly recommend The Westin Governor Morris!
