Tara M. Sent on 10/19/2021My Wedding at the Westin BWI was perfect!
The Westin BWI was perfect for our wedding! My Wedding was Aug 28, 2021; a rescheduled COVID Wedding from 2020. Joy Bird was an absolute pleasure to work with. She is very detailed and responsive. Always one step ahead! I am super OCD and I ask a lot of questions. She never came off bothered or annoyed which is appreciated as weddings can be stressful. She even got down on her knees and bustled by dress when no one else could figure it out lol. She was present for everything and visible and helping pre wedding, during, and even after. Joy is super honest; there was a billing mix up and she let me know right away and credited me back the money; that kind of honesty is rare. The staff was all super friendly and polite from the bartenders to the servers. Kathrine was also amazing to work with for coordinating the room blocks. The package was perfect for our budget and the cake came out amazing. If i had to say one thing wasn't perfect I would say the food was definitely better at the tasting but it wasn't bad at the wedding and understandably with feeding that amount of people at one time. Everyone had an amazing time and I heard zero complaints. I would definitely recommend The Westin BWI for a wedding venue. -

My daughter's wedding was held on June 6, 2021 at the Westin BWI. Wedding planners Joy Bird and Katherine McDonough were so wonderful and flexible to deal with. They took care of everything the day before and on the wedding day. The wedding was a success because of these wedding planners. They were there with us all the time throughout the day and ready to do whatever we needed. Either you need a table at the entrance or the stage needs to be relocated and widened or need a space in the walk-in cooler for the flowers it was made available. The front desk supervisor Sky Orton was very helpful and friendly in organizing things for the wedding.
I strongly recommend this place for a wedding.

Debra Sent on 12/20/2018Comfortable and perfect
We used the Westin BWI for room blocks for our wedding guests. We booked the hospitality suite for ourselves for 2 nights, and also used it on the wedding day for hair and makeup and getting ready. It perfectly suited our needs and the staff could not have been nicer. It even had a kitchen area complete with full size refrigerator/freezer. We were able to tour the suite a few months before to make sure it fit our needs. Most of our guests joined us for an after party in the hotel bar/restaurant until 12am. It was amazing and staff was courteous and swift with serving our many guests. I would definitely use the Westin again!The Westin Baltimore Washington Airport - BWI's reply:

Tiffany Sent on 05/01/2018Shira was absolutely amazing! She jumped right in on my wedding day ( and prior) to ensure that my wedding day went as smoothly as possible. Words cannot express the satisfaction that I had with the staff of the Westin.

User3594124 Sent on 08/14/2018What a wonderful venue! They were extremely easy to work with and highly responsive. The pricing was dynamic to build your own package and exclude/include anything you want. Shira was quick to reply to emails to address any questions and concerns we had. The guests appreciated having the venue and hotel in the same space. The best part is the whole hotel has one ballroom, therefore your event is the only event for the day so you get their undivided attention!!The Westin Baltimore Washington Airport - BWI's reply:
Thank you so much for your review! Loved watching your different cultures merge together at your wedding - such a fun time! -

Kira Sent on 08/14/2014We worked with the Westin for approximately 14 months before our wedding day. Our original coordinator left us 1/2 way thru and we were reassigned to JoAnne and then Tommie. I have to say that I was very nervous when we were reassigned 2x...Tommie initially contacted my then fiance to introduce herself vs contacting me...the bride and I was a little upset about that...until I spoke to Tommie myself and I absolutely LOVED her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had a COMPLETELY diff. experience than all of the other reviewers here- Tommie was extremely helpful throughout the process, offering suggestions and answering NUMEROUS questions. I swear she knows everything. She was there for our rehearsal, setting up for the big day and making sure that everyone was aware of timing, locations, etc.
As for our wedding day, it was PERFECT!! The transitions were flawless and if there were any issues, I had no knowledge of them. I later found out that there was an issue with one of our tall floral arrangements falling and Tommie swiftly stepped in to correct the problem like a superstar.
The only negative would be that we found out our chef changed 4 days before the wedding, which isn't really the hotels fault, but it was a bummer. Tommie had an impromptu tasting, sent us pictures, etc and reassured us that the food would still be fabulous...which it was. The portions were great and everyone loved their food. Oh yeah, the tasting was one of my favorite parts of this process.
The staff at the Westin was more than exceptional. It's a great hotel, close to the airport and it fit our needs perfectly. I would absolutely recommend the Westin for your next event...make sure you ask for Tommie!! -

K Sent on 07/29/2013Despite what previous reviews have said, The Westin BWI not only went above and beyond but they always did it with a smile. If you want to feel like you are V.I.P. this is the place to be. We started with someone else, but JoAnne became the new director and we ended up working with her. Everything always happens for a reason and she was awesome to work with!!! They definitely have a repeat customer with us!! Oh, and for any event that involves alcohol make sure you ask for Ewing the bartender. He is the best bartender and will make your drinks right!
As for the catering, the tasting was awesome!!! Our advice, eat little portions before because you will NOT be hungry when you leave. They give you huge portions to try. The food was absolutely yummy! In fact, I still have people telling us that the food was great from the reception. -

Tiffany Sent on 08/12/2013I absolutely loved my venue! From the first time I walked into it, I knew that was where I was going to get married. But when I looked at the reviews on WW and I got a little worried. But I have very few bad things to say about my experience, and any problems we did have were all minor and got resolved. We kind of stumbled upon the Westin and had a pleasant experience working with Tania as our coordinator until she got promoted and there was a little confusion about who was taking over and getting in touch with people. That happened about a month before my wedding and made me very nervous. But when it all got situated, I feel like the staff, especially JoAnne, worked overtime to make sure I felt comfortable again. They were flexible even until the very end as I decided whether I wanted to get married inside or outside because of the weather. They accommodated us in a lot of my requests and when they couldn't they offered a favorable alternative. And, even though the per person price was a little higher than what I wanted to pay, the level of attention their staff gave to me and my family was amazing. I have never seen the staff give so much attention to everyone at the wedding from the bride and groom to the guests. Even after my wedding I still feel like they cater to us regarding questions I've had. Our pictures are beautiful and we constantly get compliments on how beautiful everything was. Also since I did not have a DOC it was great that I could rely on the staff to make sure everything was the way I wanted it. When they returned all of my items they were washed and packed up as neatly as if they were packing their own items. Walking into the reception area after the wedding, I was so overwhelmed by how beautifully Sandra and Kelly had transformed the room. And the food was amazing, not your typical fare you would have at a wedding. The presentation and flavor were excellent. You definitely get what you pay for and the Westin is really worth the price. -

Francesca G. Sent on 05/28/2019Do NOT waste your time!
We just had our wedding here on 5/18/19 and the new events coordinator Julie Woods is awful! Not responsive (late to reply to emails always) and uncooperative with my outside vendors! Due to her uncooperativeness Party Plus could not get the room draped in time and our whole day ran late. Julie was also no where to be found the weekend of our wedding. We couldn’t even settle up our final bill with the hotel bc she was gone until the following Thursday. The hotel itself is very modern and Jose did his part to make our reception go smoothly but from the time Julie took over for the previous coordinator Shira all our planning became a nightmare. It’s a real shame this hotel has great potential but they almost ruined our wedding. I later found out this hotel has a track record of problems. Save yourself the heartache!
