We highly recommend The Westin Chicago North Shore if you’re looking for a hotel block to accommodate your wedding guests.The staff at The Westin Chicago North Shore deserve the highest praise for how valuable they were in making our wedding weekend as smooth as possible for us and our guests. Veronica Colpaert, the Social Sales Manager, coordinated a wedding block for our guests to book leading up to the wedding and facilitated delivering the gift bags that we had made for our guests. She was always friendly and prompt in her communication.In one particular situation, Gorges Dawood, the Director of Front Office, really saved us. There was a miscalculation on our part which led to us being short one room for our parents. He calmly double-checked all the records and found another room for us on the spot and gave us the same discounted rate as our current block. On the day before the wedding, the last thing we needed was more stress, and thankfully we had Gorges and the rest of the hotel staff who made everything great for us and our wedding guests.Our wedding was located at Chevy Chase Country Club, from which The Westin Chicago North Shore is conveniently located down the street. That significantly reduced travel time for us and our bridal party as we had a jam-packed day. It also significantly reduced travel time for our family and friends, many of whom travelled out of state to attend the wedding.Our wedding guests enjoyed the nice and clean hotel rooms at The Westin Chicago North Shore as well as the multiple dining options available within walking distance.Thank you, The Westin Chicago North Shore, for being an amazing hotel for us and our guests.

My husband and I booked our wedding room block here at the Westin Chicago North Shore in September 2019, and it was a great experience! I worked mainly with Bridget Moran, and Michelle as well. Bridget was always readily available and replied quickly to my e-mails when I had concerns. She was so helpful throughout the whole process. We had a large group so it got stressful for me to figure out the room situations and everyone's check-in/check-out dates, but Bridget and Michelle were there to help along the way! The rooms were beautiful and modern, and the hotel was so clean. We loved the junior suite that we were able to get for our wedding night! There were nice touches in each rooms, such as, lavender pillow sprays on the beds, that our guests enjoyed. I couldn't have asked for more. Everything ran smoothly during our entire stay. We are so thankful to all the staff at The Westin Chicago North Shore, and highly recommend it!

We had our wedding at the Westin North Shore June 22nd weekend. We had a multiple day interfaith wedding and held two of our events here, Sangeet on June 21st and reception on June 22nd. They were great to work for the most part, minus being sticklers for certain things, we wanted sparklers and they wouldn’t allow it, because they had certain rules in place which we didn’t know when we signed the contract. The convenience and location really sold it for my husband and I, so if we had to do it again, still would’ve gone with them. Nobody (us or our guests) had to run around from location to location everyday. Only other negative thing was that since majority of our guests were there the night before for the sangeet, they got a sneak peak of our reception setup. Someone (hotel or decorators, I’m not sure) didn’t keep the ballroom doors closed. I physically closed it myself once and a half an hour later when I passed by it was open again. We put so much time and planning into it and wanted to surprise our guests. Wish they had just left the door closed, but people did love our decor so I guess it’s ok at the end of the day.

We had our wedding room block at the Westin and it couldn't have worked out better! The hotel is beautiful and the staff was very friendly. It was a huge relief to know we would have a shuttle bus to and from our reception for our guest. They also made it extremely easy for our guest to get their welcome bags. We'd definitely recommend the Westin for your wedding room block!
