Jaliya V. Married on 09/19/2021Westin St. Francis - Borgia and Mission Bay Room
Prior to booking the Westin St. Francis, my partner and I searched literally all of the Bay Area to have version 2 of our wedding (version 1 was in 2020, yikes). Immediately, we were drawn to the romanticism of this location. We viewed 2-3 different rooms we could hold our 60 headcount wedding. We loved every room, but what really helped us make our decision was the Mission Bay Room on the 32nd floor of the Tower building. The view of Union Square below and the airiness of this room (floor to ceiling glass windows) literally took our breaths away. In addition to this, Jenevieve Beaulieu, the Event Manager at the Westin made further solidified our decision. Besides the amazing wedding package the Westin offers, Jenevieve was the hidden gem here. She was there for us from day 1 and took her time to answer every single question we threw at her (there were A LOT of questions). She has a certain demeanor that is very hard to find in a Event Manager. Sometimes it feels as though Event Managers can be somewhat jaded to weddings because they deal with them every week, but not Jenevieve. She really gave us the care we needed and wanted. She wore a moon necklace for us as it was mentioned in our vows and she even cried during the ceremony! What a special moment to share with someone that has been along this journey with us since the start of version 2. We cannot thank her and the staff at the Westin for all they have given us.The Westin St. Francis San Francisco on Union Square's reply:
The two of you are simply wonderful! I am grateful you continued your search until you found the venue that felt right for you. I wish you both ALL of the joy and happiness in your future marriage with many wonderful memories to be made.
Love,
Jenevieve -

Victtor Married on 09/30/2017Selma and the entire Westin St Francis team were absolutely fabulous and helped us create the most beautiful wedding for our son and new daughter-in-law! Every guest at the wedding and reception remarked on the impeccable detail and the fact that it was the best wedding and reception every witnessed. From start to finish Selma was very accommodating, answering every question and providing us with experienced and honest direction. She listened carefully to our vision for the day, and recommended lighting, music and floral vendors who hit the mark with making the vision a reality. Those of you contemplating a wedding, you will be in excellent, caring hands with Selma!
