    Wedding of our dreams!

    The Westin was the most perfect venue for our wedding. They communicated well with us and made many accommodations for our guests. The food was incredible as well

    I wish we could submit 10 stars

    It's hard to put into words how perfect this venue was for my daughter's wedding weekend. From the first point of contact, our experience was exceptional. We were looking for an upscale venue that would accommodate a 3 day wedding weekend without leaving the property, and we hit the jackpot. The Westin/Marriott property was the most beautiful one we'd previewed and they had us at Hello. The grounds were flawless and landscaped beautifully.
    We were very impressed with the length of time their staff had been employed. It was evident by the service given. Heather and Hanna were very personable, communicative, flexible and true to their word with delivering. They referred excellent vendors to work with which made for the perfect team.
    We busted our budget a bit, however it was worth every penny and all guests commented on the excellent wedding food menu.
    They offered multiple spaces included shaded seating areas, outdoor ping pong and cornhole, sand volleyball, covered cabanas with tvs and fridge, and a beautiful spa that accommodated our entire wedding party.
    Would 100% recommend!

    Beautiful place for a wedding

    The food and coordinators that the Westin provides are absolutely amazing! We loved our menu options and the coordinator it was extremely helpful at making everything go smoothly! Obviously Hilton head is a stunning place to get married, but having an indoor reception space at the Westin was the best part of our wedding! Their spaces are beautiful and they accommodated all of my family and friends! Loved our experience.

    Coastal Wedding!!

    I found the Westin & it had the coastal feel I was looking for on my wedding day! I wanted our ceremony on the Ocean Deck but unfortunately there was a storm coming thru so we had it in the Mitchellville room which kept the theme I was looking for even though we had to move the ceremony inside. We still had the view of the ocean with the coastal.feel. Our reception was in the Grand Ocean Terrace which is sooo beautiful I couldn't ask for anything more!! Even though there was a storm coming thankfully I did a first look & we were able to take all of our pics outside on the deck before the storm. I would recommend The Westin to anyone looking for an amazing day!!

    Best Wedding Venue on Hilton Head Island!

    My husband, parents, and I toured all of the most popular wedding venues on Hilton Head Island and we all agreed that the Westin was the nicest and most beautiful venue out of all of them! The Grand Ocean Terrace is absolutely stunning and is certainly one of the most unique wedding venues our guests have ever been to! Our wedding day was truly perfect and everything from the service to the food was top notch. I can't thank Heather Fishburn and everybody else we encountered at the Westin enough! Heather was so great to work with and we're so grateful for all of the time and effort she put into making this the best weekend of my and my husband's life! Heather's 20+ years of experience in the wedding industry really showed and she and the whole Westin team are true professionals! If you're getting married in Hilton Head, choose the Westin!

    A dream venue!

    We booked The Westin HHI for our intimate ceremony. It was absolutely beautiful! We went with the KISS package since we were unsure of how COVID would pan out. This package was the perfect fit - we stayed in the Port Royal Suite and our ceremony was on the terrace. This worked out perfectly - everyone was able to get ready in the suite and then just step out onto the terrace for the ceremony. Our reception was in the Mitchelville room and it was also a perfect fit. They even provided us a small dance floor! The staff - especially Heather, Hannah, and Marianna - were extremely helpful! They answered all of our questions, and were very straightforward in their communications. Our family absolutely loved the bar tending team that night as well. Everyone was extremely kind and helpful. Would recommend to any bride!

    Most Beautiful Oceanfront Venue, Stress-Free Wedding Day!

    My husband and I got married at The Westin HHI on June 19th, 2021, and we are SO happy that we chose to get married here! We were initially supposed to get married last June during the pandemic, but we had to postpone our wedding a year. The Westin was amazing throughout that unprecedented experience; the team was extremely accommodating during all the changes that resulted from planning a wedding during a pandemic. We worked closely with Kristen Kilbane for almost two years in planning and postponing our wedding, and she was incredible from start to finish. I know how difficult it was for the team and the hotel as a whole after completely shutting down during lockdown, then re-opening but at 50% staff capacity, and then having to manage all of the cancelations and postponements of major events. It was an incredibly difficult time, but through it all, Kristen was extremely responsive, professional, and went above and beyond our expectations.

    We looked at many different venues on Hilton Head Island and other islands in Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina because we knew we wanted a destination wedding down South (we are Ohioans)! The Westin was at the top of our budget, but we were confident that the team and the venue would deliver on that value, and then some. No other venue came close to the wow-factor of the Oceanfront Terrace.

    Because we aren't local, we planned everything via email and phone. We had never been to The Westin before choosing it as our wedding venue which was worrisome because I thought it would be more difficult to plan. Because the team was so professional, responsive, and offered great recommendations, the process was easy and we knew we were in great hands from the beginning.

    What's also unique about the Westin is that they have so many different event spaces! We were able to host all of the wedding events at The Westin in different locations which made it extremely easy for all of our guests, and us! The service during the wedding weekend events was impeccable and our guests commented on how great the food was at all of our various wedding events. Everything was perfectly coordinated and no detail was forgotten.

    I was truly amazed at how seamless and perfect our wedding day was. If you want a stress-free wedding day at the most beautiful oceanfront venue, choose The Westin HHI!

    HUGE thank you to Kristen, Hannah, and the whole Westin events team for making our special day perfect. It was even better than what I dreamed it would be!

    Kayleigh, thank you so much for the Stellar review! You both were a pleasure to work with. We are so happy that we were able to be apart of your special day and we wish you and your husband the very best for the future.

    Unforgettable Wedding Weekend

    Kristen Kilbane, Hannah Bozard, and the whole Westin crew made our wedding weekend the best experience of our lives! They are so easy to work with, especially since we live out of state, and responded promptly to all of our questions whether it was via email or simply giving them a call. From the food to the execution of all the events, we couldn't have asked for better service! Thank you all for making the Carros wedding weekend such a special and memorable experience for us!

    Unforgettable Wedding Weekend

    My husband and I just got married at the Westin Hilton Head Resort & Spa. It was such an incredible experience! I knew when I saw this stunning venue for the first time it was the best choice since this place was designed and built around hosting weddings and events. We had our rehearsal, rehearsal dinner, welcome party, ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner reception all in different venues on the same property and it was absolutely beautiful!!

    I am truly amazed at how smooth everything went from the beginning to end. The fact that this venue can host multiple events in one place really makes everything flow for you and your guests. The Grand Ocean Terrace is breathtaking if you don’t use this space you are really missing out. All the food was delicious and outstanding, the chef and catering menu can be customized to meet your expectations. Overall I give the Westin Hilton Head Resort & Spa 10/10 for weddings.

    The staff is exceptional and will cater to your every need. I started with Hannah she was very gracious to hold our date since we had to cancel our first wedding due to covid somewhere else and wait on that process. Honestly, it was a blessing in disguise since we got to rebook at the Westin. It was my dream venue and yes the wedding weekend felt like a dream come true. Heather Fishburn was exceptional in every way. She was in contact constantly, and always got back to me right away! Heather works very hard to make sure all of your needs are met from day one throughout the planning process, and to the end of the wedding she made sure everything was perfect for us.

    I recommend using the Heavenly Salon for hair and makeup. Sheila and her team Gean and Melissa did an outstanding job on my bridesmaids and my beauty. They can come to your bridal suite which makes it a very nice and intimate experience with your girls.
    I highly recommend booking the presidential suite if you are not having a limo service that way your bridal party has somewhere to gather and creates a intimate experience!

    Overall I give this breath taking venue 5 stars in a heart beat it truly was an unforgettable experience!

    It is the most beautiful venue on the east coast.
    I can’t wait to go back for many wedding anniversary’s to come! If you don’t book your wedding here you are missing out.

    Lauren, thank you for such a wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear your thoughts on your experience with us. It was a pleasure to work with you and your family! Wishing you all the best and we will see you next year on your anniversary!

    Amazing Wedding Venue!

    Kristen was wonderful to work with, especially during COVID and having to postpone and replan our destination wedding. Kristen’s responsiveness and commitment to making our wedding weekend at the Westin be everything we envisioned did not go unnoticed. Being that it was a destination wedding and we were not able to have many in-person meetings, we had many questions along the way. At every turn Kristen was there to take a call, respond to our emails and assure us that every detail we were wondering about would be addressed. Kristen executed perfectly on our dream wedding vision.

    Perfect Beach Wedding Venue

    The Westin is such a gorgeous resort, and it was no different for our wedding day! The Grand Ocean Terrace was everything I was looking for in a wedding venue. The room is so gorgeous even without all of the decorations and flowers, but those really put it over the top! And Kristen was so amazing to work with, especially throughout all the COVID craziness! She was patient with my thousands of questions and always answered promptly. She was very organized, and I had no stress about venue setup and the food on the day of my wedding because I knew that Kristen would take care of everything and make sure it was exactly how I wanted! The deck was gorgeous for cocktail hour, and they cleared an entire area of the beach for our ceremony setup, so even though it was a public beach it still felt private and secluded form everyone else on the beach. And as a bonus both nights we stayed at the resort (the night before with my bridesmaids and our wedding night with my husband) there was complimentary fruit and nuts, chocolate covered strawberries and champagne waiting in our room for us. They really went above and beyond anything I could have dream of, and I truly couldn't have been happier with our venue or wedding coordinator!

    The Westin Hilton Head Island Resort & Spa's reply:

    Cristina- Thank you for the kind words. We are delighted that you had the wedding of your dreams and that we could be a part of it!

    Amazing Ocean-side Wedding Venue

    When the Groom and I were touring venues, we walked into the Grand Ocean Terrace at the Westin HHI and were completely blown away! The room is beautiful, spacious, and has amazing views of the ocean – it is one of a kind. Once we decided that it was the place we wanted to have our reception, we worked with Kristen Kilbane and Hannah Bozard to finalize our initial contract and details. Two months later… COVID-19 happened. Throughout the entire summer and fall of 2020, Kristen and the rest of the Westin team were amazing, continuing to stay in contact with us, and finally making several COVID-related adjustments in the six months leading up the to wedding. They allowed us to remove the brunch we had initially scheduled as part of our initial contract, to reduce the number of gathering events we were hosting. As the last four weeks arrived, it was clear that with reduced guests due to COVID-19, we were going to be well below our contracted food and beverage minimum. Again, the Westin team worked with us to adjust the minimum to fit our numbers. We had already signed a contract, so the Westin definitely didn’t have to work with us – but they are amazing and care about their couples, and made the whole process easy and stress free! I was never nervous working with Kristen. Kristen also was in constant contact with me the final week before the wedding as we made other final tweaks to numbers and food, she is amazing! She was always on top of everything! She made sure the day ran completely smoothly on the Westin’s end.

    The Chef also deserves a note – the food here is amazing! Definitely not your standard chicken or beef meal that you usually get at weddings. Everything tasted so good, we had a hard time deciding at our tasting what our final meal choices would be! All of the guests commented how good the food was; the Groom and I made time to sit down and enjoy our meals too! The Chef was also incredibly accommodating to vegans and other food allergies, those guests still raved about their meals!

    The Westin also made sure to make all possible and necessary precautions in regards to COVID-19; we and our guests never felt unsafe or uncomfortable! All of our guests commented on how beautiful and nice the resort is. Overall, the Westin went above and beyond all of my expectations, upgrading our rooms, leaving sweet notes and treats for the Groom and I in our room, and just generally making us feel so incredibly special on this weekend. I can’t recommend the Westin HHI for weddings enough!!!

    Absolutely Amazing!

    My husband and I had our original April wedding in the FL Keys canceled due to COVID, and due to various circumstances, could not re-plan it with the same venue. Therefore I was scrambling to find another venue to start planning a new wedding from scratch when I came across beautiful photos of the Grand Ocean Terrace at the Westin. It was absolutely breath-taking, and I knew I had to see it in person. After seeing this gorgeous venue and talking with the helpful Westin staff, we booked for December 2020, and we are SO grateful that we did! We worked with Heather, and she was fantastic! She was super responsive and flexible with all of our needs. They handled our wedding flawlessly, even in the midst of COVID, which is not easy to do! Heather and her team worked hard to make our wedding absolutely gorgeous and smooth from start to finish, and they succeeded! They are 100% professionals at what they do, and they made the process so much less stressful than it could've been. I could not recommend them more strongly. Our guests raved about the food, the gorgeous room, and the venue in general! They even went so far as to leave us champagne and snacks in our room as well! We had several last minute drop-outs to our bridal party and guest list, and Heather was completely understanding and helpful every step of the way. Huge shoutout to Heather and her staff, thank you SO much for all your hard work!

    Staci, thank you for such a glowing review! We are thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed the Grand Ocean Terrace and the support of Heather and the rest of our team. We appreciate you sharing your feedback with future brides! Best wishes,

    Perfect Wedding Venue

    We had the perfect wedding day at the Westin! Although in the midst of covid, the staff at the Westin was more than willing to work with us on rescheduling and rearranging plans. Through it all, the staff was extremely kind, understanding and very very helpful. We highly recommend anyone looking for the perfect venue to consider the Westin Hilton Head!

    The Most Unique Wedding Venue on the East Coast!!!

    We had our wedding at the Westin in HHI in Oct 2020. This was the best decision we could have made. If you're looking for top notch quality and service, you will get it at the Westin. My husband and I really wanted a "beachy" themed wedding without needing to actually have the ceremony on the sand. The Ocean Front Deck at the Westin is unlike any venue we toured, and we looked at many venues on the NC/SC coast. The Westin keeps the deck in immaculate shape and with the palm trees surrounding it and it being positioned right along the ocean, it's picture perfect for a coastal wedding. The reception space offered in the Grand Ocean Terrace is the coolest venue space we toured, it's absolutely beautiful and so incredibly spacious (which is awesome if you're thinking about covid still being a factor). The coolest part of the GOT is that the back wall is completely lined with window doors along the ocean that can be opened if the weather is nice. We were able to have the doors open for our wedding, had incredible weather, and had an indoor/outdoor feel with a stunning backdrop of the beach. We had SO MANY compliments from our guests on how beautiful the venue was. Not to mention the resort itself is beautiful and a great place to offer your guests to stay for a "destination wedding" weekend. Many of our guests chose to come early and we had a full beach day before festivities started on Friday, which was really neat. The resort is so large that they have so many venue spaces you can use for other events if you'd like a full weekend of wedding events. This also makes it nice for the fact that they have many rain back-up options. We were able to host our rehearsal dinner in a beautiful room at the hotel (Mitchelville) that has a big outdoor balcony, a Welcome party outside by the Koi pond with string light along the palm trees, and a farewell brunch. It was so neat to be able to offer your guests multiple events throughout the weekend (where they didn't even have to leave the resort) and also allowed us more time to spend with our guests. Lastly, I want to speak to the staff at the Westin. We worked with Kristen as our wedding coordinator through the Westin and she was fantastic and probably worked harder than any vendor we had to make our wedding weekend perfect; I felt like we were in contact every week for a year and she was extremely responsive and made sure she did everything she could to meet our requests and always tried to be flexible. The servers/bartenders/chef at the Westin also provide great and extremely professional service, not to the mention the food is INCREDIBLE! Lastly, given that our wedding fell during COVID, we were not forced to make any major changes with the wedding and the Westin was so flexible in making some adjustments to our initial plan to make sure all our guests felt safe. Furthermore the Westin is following their own set of strict safety measures to make sure everyone is as safe as possible including staff/servers wearing masks and adjusting how a traditional buffet style meal would be served. Our wedding was so incredibly perfect, I can't imagine it being better even before covid. if you want a truly outstanding, picture-prefect, and reliable venue who is experienced and will make your wedding day go off without a hitch, choose the Westin HHI!

    Hello Kristen, we are honored by your kind words! It was an absolute pleasure to be a part of your special day. Thank you for your recommendation to future brides. We hope to see you again soon!

    5 Star Team, Venue, Etc for PERFECT WEDDING - during COVID!

    Kristen Kilbane and her team literally saved the day for our wedding. When our original venue canceled our event 40 days prior, Kristen and her team were ready and available to make up for it at the Westin. It wasn't even 48 hours after the initial shock of the first venue before Kristen had basically just switched all our original menus, seating charts, vendors, etc. over to the Westin. What would have been a disaster was made truly seamless. They were so extremely kind and caring during the planning process and the event day as well. The actual wedding day was beautiful, perfectly coordinated, and gorgeous. Did I even mention that the venue is PRISTINE and absolutely breathtaking?!?! We didn't even have time for a taste test but our guests RAVED about the food! Kristen and her team even left us some goodies in our hotel room to celebrate our marriage! Plus, the resort and their staff adhered to the COVID-19 protocol so our guests all felt safe during such a crazy time. I cannot say enough about our experience! If you're on the fence ... don't be! Book them now!!!!!

    Absolute Perfection

    Everything about our wedding was absolute magic. Planning a wedding in the midst of a pandemic is chaotic and Heather at the Westin made every moment easy. Her communication and follow through was everything this bridezilla needed. We had our welcome party, ceremony and reception at the Westin and every moment was perfect. The entire team went above and beyond for our guests. Everything was beyond my expectations! All of my guests RAVED about the food on both nights! I cannot thank Heather and the team at the Westin enough for everything they did for us! If you’re looking for a venue, look no further!

    Beautiful wedding

    I had my wedding at the Westin in Hilton head and it was stunning. The refuse was clean and had great views. Kristen was my wedding planner and really listened to try to do everything I wanted. The food was outstanding and the bartenders were very personable. Would highly recommend for a beautiful beach wedding

    AMAZING! Couldn’t have asked for more

    I can’t put into words how much my husband and I loved the Westin! Kristen was on top of everything and helped us plan our ceremony, reception, and welcome party. It was a breeze and it all happened flawlessly. The Grand Ocean Terrace is a DREAM! I can’t recommend this place enough!!

    The perfect destination wedding!

    The Westin staff is the most professional I have ever dealt with for any event. From the minute we booked my daughter's wedding over a year and a half ago, they have done exactly what we were promised and were able to prevent any last minute stress or problems. Eve that with the law of averages something would have to go a little wrong! I was mistaken... with the planners help the day of the wedding [which they require for the last 30 days and the best money you will ever spend] all went perfectly. Even a last minute trolley breakdown [from Savannah] was handled immediately with zero stress to us. My daughter was able to concentrate on being the bride -- not a problem solver -- on her special day... and everyone was enchanted with the the Ocean Terrace Room and indeed the whole Westin resort. Kristen Kilbane was amazing... handling the business details with such accuracy and always willing to explain every cost. You never felt out of the loop on anything. I want to thank the entire cast of characters at the Westin Hilton Head Resort and Spa for enabling us to host a world class wedding for my daughter and son-in-law, their friends, our families and our friends! You can no doubt spend as much as you are able but no matter what your budget... it will BE lavish. I would recommend this as a wedding venue to anyone -- especially if you are having-- as we did -- a destination wedding...since Hilton Head is such a resort and vacation place to be. Even the weather was great in November! We are so grateful! Nancy Cardone

    The Westin Hilton Head Island Resort & Spa's reply:

    Hi, Nancy!
    Thank you so much for the kind words. We are honored to have earned such a glowing review and recommendation from you. It is wonderful to hear that your guests were enchanted with The Grand Ocean Terrace, that Kristen kept you in the loop for every detail, and most importantly, that Kim was able to relax and enjoy the day as a bride. We're grateful to have been chosen as the venue for Kim and Matthew's special day. Sincerely, The Westin Hilton Head Island Events Team

    Combs Wedding 03/01/2020

    Exceptional service in an exceptional atmosphere :). We couldn't have asked for anything more on our special day. Kristen Kilbane our event manager was very on top of her game and was easy to get a hold of her. The Ocean Terrace room is just WOW! Simply perfect! Phenomenal job everyone!

    Amazing venue & staff

    We had our wedding this past weekend at the Westin Hilton Head and it exceeded all of our expectations. From the first time we toured the property to the minute we left, our experience was extraordinary. Kristen helped us with everything from setting up the tasting to making sure my parents were able to get into their room early. The staff at the hotel was so accommodating and made our after-wedding pool party a huge success. I would recommend this venue to ANYONE who is looking to have the perfect food, service, setting, etc.

    The Westin Hilton Head Island Resort & Spa's reply:

    Hi, Kara! Thank you so much for the kind words. We are so appreciative that we have earned your recommendation to future brides or grooms. It was truly a pleasure to host you, Meghan, and your friends and families for your special day and after-wedding pool party. We hope you will come back to visit for future celebrations!
