The Westin Hilton Head Island Resort exceeded our expectations for our daughter’s wedding – the venue and services were fantastic! We hosted a cocktail hour, wedding reception, after party and departure breakfast for 190 - all overlooking the Atlantic Ocean - you can’t create a lovelier venue. Kristen Kilbane and the Westin event staff handled everything professionally and seamlessly. The service, food and decor were top notch.

The Grand Ocean Terrace room for the reception was stunning and needed limited decorating as it directly fronts the dunes, the beach and the ocean. A great space, and the sunsets are incredible. There was plenty of room to accommodate a large number of guests with plated dinner and dancing. The glass doors open to an outside deck – which afforded people the ability to go “outside” and never really leave the reception.
Our guests are still talking about the "5 star" location. They were able to stay in beautiful rooms with direct views of the ocean, hear the sound of the waves and have direct access to the beach from the Westin. Room prices were reasonable and with the ability to take the elevator back to their rooms after the reception our guests didn't have to travel far! All in all a fantastic spot for a destination wedding - Hilton Head Island has so much to do. 12 miles of beautiful ocean front beaches, 24 public and private golf courses, tons of shopping and 250+ restaurants both on or directly off the island.

The Westin Hilton Head Resort & Spa was the perfect venue for our daughter’s wedding. We had originally planned the wedding at a Caribbean location but had to change venues due to hurricane damage in that area. We contacted this location to see if they had availability for the same dates and we were thrilled when they said yes. We found Hilton Head to be such a wonderful destination for everyone that we wondered why we ever looked anywhere else! We had the pleasure of working with Heather Fishburn, who was amazing through the whole process of planning our daughter’s dream wedding. The wedding was a combination of events over 4 days for close to 300 guests: a rehearsal dinner, welcome party, a traditional Hindu ceremony followed by a traditional Christian ceremony, a reception, and finally, a farewell brunch. Heather worked closely with our wedding planner for months prior to the wedding - and made sure everything was absolutely seamless during the wedding events. We totally appreciated that she was always available by email or phone, and prompt to answer any questions. The Westin has a variety of beautiful event spaces - our favorite was the Grand Ocean Terrace, we made use of the ballroom and Ocean Front Deck as well. The food at the Westin was amazing - the variety and options available were perfect for us. The entire food and beverage team made sure that we could work out a menu that made everyone happy. The staff impressed us everyday with their professional service as well us making us feel welcome wherever we went throughout the property. They seemed as excited about the wedding as we were! There was a point during our planning process where there were changes in key staff - we were nervous that what we had planned would not take place as smoothly as planned. We had absolutely nothing to be concerned about - we truly appreciated that that the transition was smooth and professional - Heather Fishburn was key to making sure that everything was perfect!

The event team at the Westin HHI are amazing!! Next to our planner, the event staff were super helpful and excellent to work with. The food; massive salad spread, local low country sea food, mash potato martinis and prime rib all got rave reviews from a room full of ppl that love to eat. The wait staff were top notch and catered to our every need. Can’t thank Hannah and Lauren enough for all their help. Larry-
