Perfect day!!

My husband and I got married on 10/9/21 at the Westin Milwaukee. It could not have been a more beautiful and magical day and a piece of that beauty comes directly from the Westin itself. I will never forget the feeling of walking into the ballrom for the first time and gasping because it looked so pretty and even more beautiful than what I had invisioned during the planning process.

The Westin Milwaukee is a downtown Milwaukee hotel with a beautiful modern design and a warm ambiance. On the day of the wedding the staff that we dealt with were just so accommodating, professional, and pleasant and the day went off perfectly without a hitch.

Covid resulted in our having a couple different event planners with the Westin, our final one Craig we were assigned to Craig a few months before our wedding when our previous one took a promotion. I was a bit concerned how things would go being moved to a new event person that close to our wedding date. But our day went off w/o a hitch and a big piece of that is giving credit to Craig. Everything was well timed, looked beautiful, and tasted great.

The Westin is under the organization called White lodging and we also cannot speak highly enough about how wonderful they were in dealing with covid and the many issues that that brought us in planning our wedding.

In our venue search we looked at both hotels and free standing places. We opt'd to go with a hotel partially bc we had many out of town guests but also because the pricing is so much simpler-price is per person and that's it, no seperate caterer, rentals, bar, etc.

If on your wedding day you're looking for an elegant venue with great food, great service, simplicity in pricing, a perfect location in the heart of downtown, and has sleeping accomodations for guests then you cannot go wrong with the Westin Milwaukee. Our wedding day was flawless and perfect at the Westin.

Awesome!!!

We planned our daughter's wedding here on August 17, 2019. We live in Boston but wanted their wedding in Milwaukee. We had such a great experience with our wedding plans at the Westin. The Wedding planning was awesome, the rooms were great and so very comfortable, the restaurant was so delicious, the staff amazing and the post-wedding breakfast in the hotel was fabulous!!!
My husband and I stayed for 6 days and most of the guests (from out of state) stayed there for 4 days..
Guests stated that this wedding was absolutely the best wedding ever!!!!!
Thank you...Westin Milwaukee.
We are planning to come back and stay there again in February, 2020.
