Great Staff !

Everyone from the front desk to the wait staff was amazing. Working with Paola was a pleasure and her response time was quick. She was knowledgable and helpful. Rooms were recently renovated and the ball room was beautiful and clean.

Top Notch Service and Value Added

We searched and looked at quite a few venues for our wedding outside and within Richmond. We both left The Westin Richmond with a strong feeling that we would end up returning, which we did. One of the best things about Westin Richmond is the staff - no matter who it is you are dealing with, the same standard of offering high customer service prevails. We contracted Westin for both our wedding ceremony and reception. We worked closely with Rachel for the majority of our wedding planning. She is superb! Five stars aren't enough for her. She is super responsive, go the extra mile and beyond to meet your needs and provide as much added value as possible. They made it easier for us not to have the need for a wedding planner, just a day of planner, and even then, they helped greatly in taking the load off us. Shout out to some of the other Westin Richmond staff - Chef John, Jazmine, Standford, Michael, and others who made the process and the day as stress free as possible. On the day of our wedding prior to the ceremony, We were told a few times of how calm we were. This is due to God's imparted peace and knowing that I'll be tying the knot with my soulmate as well as knowing that Westin Richmond's job is to take the stress as much as possible away from us regarding a number of the activities. They certainly did a great job of this and we are more than grateful.
I strongly recommend Westin Richmond as a venue for your wedding. We have no regrets at all in our choice.
