This was the perfect reception space for our small wedding. We used the private dining room in Urban, the hotel's restaurant, as opposed to meeting space in the hotel.
The dini...ng room has a private patio with heaters and a great little pre-function space area with a bar, cocktail tables, and plenty of space for guests to mingle.
We even had enough space to have a small dance floor and the hotel added stereo patch into the house sound so we could play music from an iPod. They even left empty vases on each table for us to put our bouquets in when we arrived.
The staff at the Westin was also very easy to work with and really took care of all the little details. They setup our guestbook, gift table, used our Waterford bride/groom champagne flutes for our toasts, cut the cake, and saved the top tier of the cake for us to save for the first anniversary. We had no idea how the timing of a reception was supposed to go, but the staff really helped us along and made sure we wanted to do "____" next and then made it happen.
If you're also having a small reception (max 50) I would highly recommend you check out this space.
