Best Experience Ever

We had the best experience working with Connie and her staff. From the initial phone Connie made us feel comfortable with the process. Her communication and attention to detail were excellent. I would highly recommend adding The Westin to your venue list.

I had my ceremony and reception at the Westin National Harbor. Thais, the wedding coordinator, was very professional and accommodating to all our needs. She was amazing and I could not ask for a more patient and understanding person to work with. I can honestly say she made wedding planning much easier and stress free. The decorations for the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception were exactly what I wanted. The food was also amazing. Prices are reasonable and worth every dime. I would definitely recommend working with Thais if you plan on having a wedding at the Westin National Harbor.

We had our rehearsal dinner at Sauceity, which is the restaurant at this hotel. The hotel is amazingly clean and the decor inside is really great. I adored this hotel, in fact I never wanted to leave! The restaurants staff was great. We had a fixed menu meal, and the crab cakes were BEYOND AMAZING. I can't say this enough, especially as a native Maryland resident. We're hard on our crab cakes. But these were magnificent. The service was great and they were sure to keep our glasses full. Loved this restaurant, hotel and location - we'd love to go back.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
