Norfolk Marriott Waterside

The Norfolk Marriott Waterside was a great place to have the wedding. Brian, who does the wedding planning over this was fabulous to work with. He was so easy to get a hold of, or e-mail if we had any questions about what we wanted to do or look like. He came by the day of the wedding, said hello and offerend help if I needed it. The bartenders, wait staff, and hotel staff were so nice and very helpful to our guests. We even had a wedding crasher, but the hotel took care of that very quickly and quietly. Amazing venue!

We chose the Norfolk Marriott Waterside as the location for our ceremony and reception. Our event was perfect!! The Brian Harvey was great. He is very knowledgable and provided great suggestions and ideas to help our wedding weekend run smoothly. He responded to e-mails right away, and was 100% available throughout our entire wedding weekend. The food was delicious! The presentation was fabulous! And the wait staff during our reception was friendly and efficient. I honestly could not have requested anything more from our reception venue!

A beautiful backdrop for those brides who want a wedding with timeless elegance. Absolutely gorgeous hotel! Wayne Callis, our coordinator, was great. He worked with our budget, answered questions in a timely manner, and made sure everything ran smoothly. The food and bev are on the pricey side, but the guests raved about the food and bar and how lovely the reception was. My only problem was that the staff started cleaning up 15 minutes before the scheduled ending time...my mom got up to use the restroom, and when she came back her place setting had been cleared (drink and all). A few other guests complained about the same thing. Staff should not start clearing the room until the last dance.

Wonderful event overall! Very helpful with setup and listening to exactly what I wanted.

While expensive, the Marriott was worth the money. Brian Harvey was great to work with. The atmosphere was great. The food was excellent.

This place may have a view that you pay for but their staff is very unfriendly, and was not helpful. They have no place for the wedding party to get dressed if you rent their pool deck unless you pay another $200.00. In addition they charge you a 21% service tax chrage for the pool deck use and this is not disclosed in their contract. They show the service charge under catering services not under banquest facility use.... THIS PLACE IS A RIPOFF!!
