Why We Like This Place

The Newport Beach Marriott Hotel & Spa strikes just the right balance between sophisticated resort and tranquil coastal sanctuary. Both public and private spaces are tailored with dark woods, brushed metals and sleek lines throughout for a dash of contemporary formality; at the same time, rich jewel-toned fabrics and sumptuous furnishings with seaside-inspired accents evoke a haven of serenity. And since you and your guests will want to both revel and relax during your wedding weekend, it’s well worth exploring all that this chic venue has to offer.

Begin at Atrium Court, situated at the center of the hotel and open to the sky nine floors above. It’s a favorite site for cocktail receptions, informal luncheons and candlelit winter ceremonies: Tables and chairs or ceremony seating can be arranged in front of an ornate patina-covered bronze fountain, soaring two stories high and filling the space with the musical sound of its splashing waters. Potted blooms and feathery palms add to the Atrium Court’s lush atmosphere.

If you’d prefer to get married or serve cocktails outdoors, reserve the Rose Garden, poised at the edge of the property overlooking the Newport Beach Country Club Golf Course. This partial oceanview location features a central path leading to an immense white-timbered gazebo, which makes an impressive altar when festooned with garlands or draped with fabric. Guests are seated theater-style on a flagstone-and-grass “patio,” surrounded by rose bushes and planters filled with colorful flowers.

The Marriott’s newest al fresco ceremony site is the Sea View Terrace, where couples tie the knot beneath a classic rotunda. From their slightly elevated vantage, they can see all of their family and friends, seated on either side of a long aisle that runs down the center of a manicured semicircle of lawn. Every guest can easily witness the exchange of vows, along with a view of the nearby golf course and a ribbon of ocean in the distance.

Indoor receptions are held in the Grand Pacific or Newport Coast Ballrooms. Both are quite spacious, with twelve- to fifteen-foot ceilings, and accommodate large social functions. Light from multiple chandeliers and wall sconces reflects in the mirrors placed around each ballroom’s perimeter, enhancing the airy and open feeling. You can dress up either room any way you like, from understated elegance to over-the-top glamour.

One of the most gratifying things about staying at the Newport Beach Marriott—besides the plush, modern guestrooms—is getting your soul soothed at the luxurious 14,000-square-foot Pure Blu Spa, which offers a tempting menu of body scrubs, facials, and therapeutic treatments. The bride and her entourage will also appreciate the full hair and nail salon services.

The Newport Beach Marriott’s expert wedding staff, topnotch culinary team and gorgeous facilities will help make your celebration as fresh and memorable as a cool evening breeze floating in off the Pacific.
