We recently had our wedding at The Westin Copley Place and we could not have been happier with our decision! From the initial planning process to the wedding night communication between us and the hotel staff was seamless. Bridget was our wedding coordinator and she went above and beyond with every detail. She was extremely attentive and made all of the details we hoped for our wedding come to life! Not only was she extremely personable and able to handle a lot of questions with ease but she also had amazing ideas to help make our dream a reality! Kim also helped us with coordinating our wedding and assisted Bridget with all of our details. The reception room and ballrooms we had our events in were absolutely gorgeous and the bridal suite was beyond all of our expectations with plenty of space. All of our vendors complimented how much room we had for getting ready and the amazing lighting we had for getting ready pictures :) The food was impeccable. Despite our larger wedding size everyone complimented the food and everything was delicious. We also held our welcome party at Bar 10 and Alexandra helped us with every detail and was incredible with all of the moving parts and our larger party for our night before. I feel so lucky to have had such an amazing experience for our wedding and would highly HIGHLY recommend any future couple to get married here. It’s also located in a prime location for amazing outdoor pictures and picturesque Boston backdrop!

Buyer beware!!! If you don't want to babysit and hound ppl for 11 months to do their jobs... look elsewhere I'll start with the positives: large ballroom with a cocktail room nearby so it feels like the whole floor is yours. Great penthouse/bridal suite for the bride. All inclusive package makes it easier overall as I was away at school Cons: Getting the wrong salad served at your wedding.. Paying for a full 5 hour open bar only to have guests coming up to you asking why there isn't any vodka or tequila at the bars. For some reason half of bars were only serving beer and wine for the first 2 hours when that was not agreed upon in our contract. None of the vendors could get up to my room unless we went to get them. Not a huge deal but something to plan around as its 36 floors up. Very poor communication overall. Emails unanswered. Waiting days and sometimes weeks for responses/confirmation. But the worst thing was that at about noon the day before the wedding we were notified that we needed to pay the full venue price by credit card by 5pm. They would not accept any other form of payment like a check etc because they needed it to clear by 5pm. okay... this is the first we are hearing of this.. deep breaths. I don't know about you but no one in my family has a credit limit to pay for 260 guests on a moments notice (you can do the math $$). When we secured the venue about 11 months before the wedding, my husband put his credit card down for deposits (can't secure the venue without paying a deposit right?). Contract was signed. All was good to go. Over the course of the next 11 months, not a cent was taken from the account. No one ever withdrew the deposit, nothing. For months everyone was MIA. Nothing about payment was even spoken of until the day before the wedding when they demanded the total in full (*panicking*). Luckily both of our parents could extend their credit card limits and get most of it paid for (just what they want to be doing the day before their children get married right?), however there was still 17k remaining balance after their credit limits. The next morning, the DAY OF THE WEDDING we were scrambling to pay the remainder (because again.. they wouldn't take a check, only credit card). My inlaws/fiance were able to put the rest on another card but long story short only 15k would go through bc of credit limits. After that (all of us unaware about that 15k limit that had occurred), they charged my father (on his hotel room balance) an UNAUTHORIZED $2000 which he subsequently discussed with financial department and they somehow blamed it on my husband for not paying deposits when his card was ON FILE for that sole purpose for 11 MONTHS. I'm sorry but YOU forgot to take any money out along the way. Terrible experience. Sorry for the rant. Soooo disorganized. Maybe I should have know this was coming in terms of the money situation but so many people dropped the ball along the way and it was so much unnecessary stress for the 48hours surrounding the wedding. Not to mention the fee they charged my inlaws for parking in front of the hotel for an 15 extra minutes because we had to pack the car with all of our wedding supplies. Just money hungry. We were also told it was no problem if you need extra rooms on your room block and that they could just add them when we needed them.. only to find out they couldn't extend it when more people needed rooms. The list goes on and on. Ill spare you the other small details.

The Westing Copley was an amazing wedding venue. My husband and I just had our wedding there this past weekend and I can’t say enough good things about the whole day! Our coordinator changed about a month ago from Gabriel to Troy. Troy was so responsive and caught up on everything so fast. Everything exceeded our expectations. The whole weekend they went above and beyond. Our guests were thrilled with the food and the overall experience. The whole day went exactly according to plan and was exactly what I imagined. The Westin really went above and beyond. I highly recommend this venue.

Any questions?

The Westin Copley Place Boston made our wedding day and dreams come true! From our first time meeting with Gabriel Campos and walking into the Staffordshire ballroom, we knew that we had found our wedding venue and our amazing wedding/event coordinator. My husband and I are so thankful for Gabriel and he made our wedding planning so enjoyable from start to finish. Gabriel has found his passion and he exhibits it in his dedication to his work and truly making sure that you have an amazing experience at The Westin Copley Place. Gabriel was professional, compassionate and responsive throughout our whole experience. Our wedding day this past April was absolutely perfect and we are so grateful to Gabriel and the whole staff at the Westin Copley Place. The food was amazing and our guests had some many compliments. Our guests who stayed at the hotel the night of the wedding loved the newly renovated rooms. My husband and I were amazed by our wedding suite and the detail that Gabriel and the staff at the Westin Copley Place put into it and with our parents' suites as well. Thank you Gabriel and the rest of the staff at The Westin Copley Place Boston for making our wedding dream come true and we cannot wait to celebrate our future anniversaries there! -Melissa & Tim

Gabe, Nancy and the entire staff at the Westin were AMAZING. I cannot give enough appreciation for Gabe's professionalism; he was fun to work with, responsive and thorough. We had our ceremony & reception in the Staffordshire Ballroom: absolutely breathtaking. We had minimum décor because the views spoke for themselves. Cocktail hour was outside the room, 1-stop shop for our guests! Food: Chicken, Salmon & Gnocchi (main), Crab cakes, Bacon wrapped scallops, Chicken Skewers with custom jerk sauce for passed apps. The food and wait staff was impeccable. We received nothing but compliments from our guests on their meals. We also went with open bar for our guests, only a difference of about $600 and worth it! Cake: the Westin pairs with Konditor Meister & Icing on the Cake (which is what we went with) Gabe and Paula took care of all of the coordination after we had our cake tasting. LOVED the cake & design. We stayed in the executive suite. I can honestly say I have never had such a breathtaking suite (living room, 2 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and conference room). 180 views of Boston made for the most memorable photos. We chose last minute to use the suite to get ready in for the wedding party and photos. I'd give 10 stars if I could. Gabe, you're the best, thank you for giving us and our guests memories to last a lifetime.

Our experience hosting our reception at the Westin was fantastic - Gabe Campos was our coordinator and we couldn't have asked for a more helpful and organized person to help make sure our day went exactly as we wanted it to. We had a lot of questions about pretty much every aspect of the reception (and having a block of rooms at the hotel as well) and Gabe was incredibly informative and patient, making sure we got answers to every question we asked. And Gabe was a true rock star on the day-of. Everything went so smoothly and perfectly. Plus our guests raved about how great the food at our reception was, and how helpful the staff was too. I'd recommend the Westin to anyone looking to host a great ballroom wedding in Boston!

We were so incredibly happy with our experience at the Westin! Gabe, the event coordinator, was absolutely wonderful to work with - he was accommodating, patient, and genuinely committed to ensuring we had the best day possible. We had an Indian wedding which was logistically complex, and Gabe handled all of the details (small and large) perfectly. A few hours before the wedding we needed to extend the stage. This normally would have been very stressful since we had not planned on this, but Gabe and his team quickly accommodated the request. He was at the Westin 5:30 AM the morning of the wedding to make sure everything was ready to go and handled last minute requests. The guests raved about the food and the location. The bridal suite is stunning. I can't say enough about our experience there and highly recommend it to any couple!!!

If we could give 6 stars in this situation, we would. Choosing The Westin Copley Place was one of the best decisions that we made with respect to planning our wedding. Giving accolades to this gorgeous venue in the center of Boston goes hand in hand with two people: 1) Gabriel Campos was our catering manager and event coordinator and was by our side every step of the way for the whole year leading up to our big day. He took care of everything, and I mean everything for us. There were many different vendors and personality types involved in the process, and Gabe handled everything with finesse, professionalism and kindness, all while keeping our vision in mind. Our day was simply perfect, and we have Gabe to thank for that. He made us feel like we had a lifelong friend planning our wedding and reception, and we felt like we were the only clients he cared about. 2) Chef Daniel Pogue and his entire staff were more than we ever could have hoped for. The food at our wedding (we had several unique stations) was some of the best we had ever tasted. We were not at all surprised to find out later that he is one of the top ranked chefs for Marriott in the world. We still hear compliments from our guests about the incredible food and service that they experienced on our wedding day. We can’t thank Gabe, Chef Pogue, and the Westin Copley Place for making our day so incredibly special from the big details to the small gifts and gestures that only we would know about. Thank you for making our day amazing!

My family and friends blocked rooms at the Westin for my wedding at the Boston Public Library. In addition, we had a post-wedding breakfast in the Adams/Parliament Room. All of the staff were accommodating in so many ways. As a bride, I felt like I could go to them with any question at any time. In addition, my husband and I got a few goodies in our room on the house - champagne and chocolate covered strawberries. Gabe Campos was absolutely fantastic - he organized the breakfast with my mom and was incredibly receptive and communicated everything well. A definite "yes" if you are looking for accommodations and space for extra events to accompany your Boston wedding festivities.

We recently had our wedding at this venue in the Staffordhire Ballroom. The wedding Coordinator, Gabriel Campos was amazing at organizing everything. He is great at responding immediately and taking care of any issues. My husband I both thought that thanks to Gabe, our wedding went above and beyond our expectations. From the moment we met him, to even after our wedding ended, the little surprises he left along the way added a personal touch, which made the whole event very memorable. Along with Gabe, the rest of the staff at the Westin, were amazing and more than willing to help us with all our request to ensure our guest and us could enjoy our event stress free. I would highly recommend booking here.

Breathtaking perfection is what I would say describes The Westin. I got married there in March 2017 and could not have been happier with everything. One of the most amazing things about The Westin is the wedding packages. Dedicated wedding coordinator directly related to anything with The Westin, 3 or 5 course meals, cake by Kondeitor Meister, champagne toast poured at the table, savory hors d'oeuvres and appetizers, late night snacks, open bar, incredible spaces and an extravagant linen package! The entire process was handled and guided by such an amazing wedding coordinator by the name of Gabriel Campos. Over the year course of planning he quickly responded to every e-mail, text and voicemail making planning run smoothly and efficiently. Gabe and his team setup all the décor for us and made our vision a reality; actually it was a million times better than we had envisioned. When we saw our space for the first time we were blown away. The food was hot and delicious and the portions were generous. The day could not have been more perfect and it was all possible because of Gabriel Campos their amazing evening coordinator and the incredible staff. I would highly recommend The Westin Copley Place Boston for their wedding package and staff and all around trust to make your wedding day, or event, the most amazing event it can be.

We got married at the Westin Copley Place in November and the entire team was amazing. We worked with Gabe and Olga and they were so attentive, I can't rave enough about our experience here. Some of my favorite things about our wedding at the Westin we were able to have our reception and ceremony in the same room (which we fell in love with because of the views) and Gabe and his team executed the "flip" flawlessly. I loved that we were the only wedding that night, all the guests knew where to go sans confusion. The food and views were awesome (and so was our captain Yves). The bridal suite was such an added bonus that allowed my entire family to come and go as they pleased with plenty of space throughout the afternoon. And all the little touches throughout the weekend were amazing, I cannot thank Gabe and his team enough for such a memorable, perfect day :)

I wanted to take the time to mention, Gabriel Campos, specifically. He was extremely professional, very friendly and his follow through was exceptional. He really respected the fact that I had no clue what I was doing and felt very overwhelmed. He never added to that feeling and only alleviated the initial stresses I was feeling.

10/27/2016 • Jaime B

We had our reception there and it went so smoothly and completely as planned. Gabe Campos was our coordinator and he took care of everything. He made the process so easy for us by coordinating with all the vendors, answering a million questions, offering valuable and honest advice and making sure we were always on track. He was friendly, kind and always professional. He went above and beyond his duties, and we received better service than we thought possible. We did stations (instead of the usual 3 course sit-down dinner)which is still fairly uncommon for hotels, and the Westin adapted everything to suit our wishes. The day-of event staff were efficient and quick, and again, everything went as we requested. The bartenders were so friendly and there was never a line - very important to our guests:). All of our guests remarked how great the food was. One of them, a professional chef, even told us how impressed he was with the food. We had our reception here because they do weddings often and they really were experts. We couldn't be happier with how everything turned out!

We got married at the Westin Copley Place on September 24th. My husband and I knew we wanted to get married in the city and we are so thrilled that we chose the Westin. The second we saw the beautiful Staffordshire room, we immediately knew that this was where we wanted our wedding to be! The big windows overlooking Copley Square brings so much light and character to the room. The setup of the room at our wedding was breathtaking. Every employee at the Westin was upbeat and accommodating. The food was DELICIOUS! From the cocktail hour appetizers to the meal everything was cooked perfect. Our guests raved about the food for days. Gabe our wedding specialist simply outdid himself. From our introduction to him up until the wedding day (even after the wedding) he exceeded all of our expectations. Gabe answered all of my questions promptly and quickly and resolved any issues we had throughout the whole process! He was understanding, compassionate and it is apparent that he loves what he does. The day of the wedding he communicated with me assured me through every step. At a time that can be very stressful, Gabe made sure I did not feel one bit of stress. I could not have asked for a better person to plan a wedding with. My husband, my parents, my in-laws and everyone else who was involved in our wedding is STILL talking about what an amazing job he did. The Westin Copley made our wedding amazing!

We had our wedding in the Staffordshire Room at the Westin. The room is absolutely beautiful with great views of Copley Square. We had 180 people and the room was the perfect size. The food was excellent as well. I was nervous after the tasting because I loved everything I tried and you always hear that at the actual reception food it isn't as good as at the tasting. Well this was not the case at the Westin. I'm still getting raving reviews about the food weeks after the wedding (music to my ears)! We did have a small hiccup with our vegetarian meal because the wrong meal was served at the reception, but the waitstaff was very sympathetic and helped get out other meals as soon as possible. Shauna Richmond was our wedding coordinator and I have nothing but great things to say about her. After our first meeting I was completely comfortable with her and trusted her judgement 100%. She set up lots of candles all throughout the room the night of and it helped create such an elegant ambiance. She was very responsive to emails and answered every question I threw her way. I highly recommend future brides giving the Westin Copley a look and don't be afraid of pricing - I was pleasantly surprised that it did not break the bank like many other Boston venues would.

When we first went to the Westin Copley we met the wedding coordinator, Shauna. She instantly won us over with her passion for what she does and friendly personality. The view of the room looks onto Copley Square and is beautiful! Leading up to the wedding, Shauna was very responsive to our questions, literally for a year and half I emailed her back and fourth :) On the day of the wedding Shauna was not available to be there (we knew this ahead of time). The Westin staff treated us wonderfully from check in the day before. They obtained anything that we needed for the wedding. On the day of the wedding, their was a parade that shut down streets in Boston. Our shuttles to the church were late picking up guest, therefore I could not go out the main entrance. I got in contact with hotel security who took me out the loading docks so that I would not be seen by guests. I am so thankful for their help! The food was hot and delicious. I have been to so many weddings where the food was cold, this was not the case at the Westin. Best wedding food i've had yet and many of our guests confirmed it! The prime rib we got was massive, tender, and cooked to perfection. My only complaint would be on the day of the wedding without Shauna being present; it left for some confusion regarding the bar and setup of the room. My husband went to order a drink at 10P for the first time, and he discovered that our alcohol upgrades has not been met, like previously agreed upon, including his favorite scotch. The only other issue was staff cleaning up early, as several guest went back for their champagne toast and it was cleaned off the table. My husband and I each had a sip of our toast, and then never saw it again once we got up to talk to people. Overall, I would recommend a wedding here, the value and personal attention you get is well worth it. It was a pleasure working with the Westin Copley and Shauna in planning our wedding.

We wanted a Boston wedding that matched our style and there were plenty of options. The Westin was perfect in so many ways. Great location in the middle of everything for our out-of-town guests (we had alot). The accomodations were great, the food was AMAZING! Up until our wedding I have never heard of a venue serving 150 petit filets PERFECTLY! I got more compliments on the food than my dress (which I am very ok with). So many of our guests (some can be very harsh critics) said it was the best wedding they have ever been to! More than anything, our choice to have it at the Westin was mainly because of the Wedding Coordinator Shauna Richmond. From the very first meeting, you could tell her passion was my wedding and still was even days after our event. She went above and beyond helping with room reservations, special requests and making sure the Groom knew what to do and where to go (and it worked)! She even went to pick up his tux for him the day of the wedding when it wasn't ready the day before. Seriously, who does that?!?! The venue is gorgeous, beautiful views and the price was much less than we had anticipated. This is a must visit for anyone looking to get married in town!

My husband and I got married at The Fairmont Copley Plaza and wanted to give our guests a few different options and price points for local accommodations. We were married on New Year's Eve and knowing that First Night Boston might make accommodations a little harder to come by, we booked our room block at The Westin as early as we could. They were incredibly helpful and communicative throughout the following months leading up to our wedding day. Our room block was expanded at least a couple of times and they made this process seamless. The rate offered for our guests was very reasonable. This was where most of our guests ended up staying and it was convenient for them to be able to walk across the street once the festivities had ended.

11/17/2014 • Natasha W

Loved this venue! The planner Shauna was amazing, she listened to everything we wanted and was able to work with our budget. The chef Dan Pogue was great! He made ethnic food for our wedding and it was amazing!

We had our wedding in the Staffordshire room. It was beautiful, and a great size for our 150 person wedding. 20 people couldn't make it last minute (told us DAY OF) because of Hurricane Irene. The staff was absolutely amazing in assisting with all of these last minute changes (removing tables, notifying vendors). Ted was the person I worked with the most, and he helped to get the wedding off without stressing me or my mom out. I felt so comfortable in his hands.

We booked 2 suites and 1 room at the Copley! They were beautiful and all of the rooms opened up into one another! It was and awesome way to make my batch feel like a huge slumber party!

I had my wedding at the Westin Copley and I am could not be more thrilled with everything that the hotel presented. When I was on my hotel tour and I walked into the third floor ballroom, The Staffordshire Room, I was sold and I knew I wanted to have my wedding at the Westin Copley. The room has floor to ceiling windows that look over Copley Square, the Boston Public LIbrary and other Boston attractions! The view is fabulous! The hotel is located in downtown Boston, near many shops, restaurants and tourist attractions which my guests absolutely LOVED!! The event manager and the entire event staff were so accommodating and everyone was a pleasure to work with!
