    Best place ever!

    Westwood went above and beyond my expectations! I worked with Janie and she is amazing. She answered all emails so quickly and set the venue up so perfectly. Her team was amazing as well. Couldn’t have picked a better place to have our wedding reception!

    Just the right spot!

    The Westwood Country Club was fantastic from start to finish!
    The newly built patio was great for our ceremony, with a view over greenery and space for everyone. The bar was a warm space for a standing cocktail hour, which encouraged folks to mix and mingle. The ballroom was large enough for our reception without feeling cavernous, with lovely chandeliers and views. Finding a space with natural surroundings so close to a metro station is not an easy feat in this area, especially at a reasonable price point.
    The food was plentiful and delicious, far better than we had any expectation of. Many of our guests had dietary restrictions that were accommodated without comment or incident. 180 meals came out perfectly cooked in a short time. The staff were attentive and on point all night.
    But perhaps the best part of the whole experience was working with Janie. From the moment we inquired until after the event, Janie was top notch and made the experience so much easier for us. She was kind, helpful, and a calming influence in the stressful time of wedding planning. She responded to every question and request with remarkable speed and was perpetually accommodating. She always (I think with one reasonable exception) gave the answer we wanted to hear.
    There is nothing more we could have asked for from the Westwood Country Club.

    Simply perfect

    Janie and her team were so amazing. It was everything we could’ve asked for and then some. The decor, the SIGN (!!!), the food, everything was truly perfect. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making the happiest day of our lives unforgettable.

    Perfect Wedding Venue!!

    Westwood Country Club in Vienna, VA was the PERFECT venue for my daughter’s wedding reception in September 2020, and Janie Mathieson was an angel on my shoulder! She graciously guided us through the wedding reception planning during an incredibly challenging pandemic environment. Her professionalism and sound advice were so helpful in addition to her great vendor recommendations. She was very accessible and responsive to phone calls and emails, and every question that came up. We were in her very capable hands from beginning to end.
    The ballroom was exquisite with gorgeous chandeliers and a beautiful ornate mirror where the wedding cake was displayed. The room was the perfect size to allow proper social distancing measures to be followed, and the balconies provided not only breathtaking views of the golf course, but also a safe place for guests to go if they felt more comfortable spending some time outside. The very large ballroom made our dream wedding reception as originally planned possible, because it allowed for fewer people to be seated at the tables, and yet the elegance of the room made it feel so intimate and comfortable. We received many compliments from guests who were impressed by the spectacular room and décor.
    The food was delicious! We enjoyed having a choice for the menu and served the filet mignon and marinated chicken, with a vegetarian option. Our guests raved about the food selections and enjoyed the variety of delicious hors d’oeuvres.
    The weather was so perfect that day and my daughter and her husband could take photos outside on the scenic golf course, and on a very picturesque stone bridge that looked magical. And part of the fun was they rode a golf cart to the location for the lovely outdoor photos. Some beautiful photos were also taken outside the entrance of the Club in the romantic evening light.
    The location was so convenient as it was just about 20 minutes from the church and 10 minutes from hotels and other great amenities in the Tysons area. Our guests loved the convenience of the Club and the ease of getting there from the church and hotels.
    Janie and her staff were gracious, attentive, and kept the evening flowing nicely. We felt like we were in such good hands and didn’t have to worry about any of the details. They were very flexible with last minute changes and the service was superb. We want to thank Janie and her A+ team for a most memorable wedding at the perfect, elegant venue – we believe one of the very best in the DMV area!!

    Beautiful setting, Delicious Food, Professional Staff

    We could not be happier with our wedding reception experience on 5/15/21 at Westwood CC. The location is easy to Tyson's Corner & the Beltway. The ballroom is beautiful overlooking the manicured golf course. The food is top quality & the staff professional & courteous. Mrs. Janie Mathieson, Dir F&B, is a gem - positive, resourceful and knowledgeable.

    Westwood Country Club

    Westwood Country Club is a beautiful facility. The staff is top notch, so professional and easy to work with. The food is delicious as well. We were able to arrive early the day of the wedding and get all the photographs we wanted around the club. Janie and her team handled the set up of all the extra 'themed' items we brought along. Overall a perfect wedding experience for us and our guests at Westwood Country Club.

    Dream COVID-19 Wedding!

    Janie was an absolute delight to work with when we had to re-envision our wedding in July 2020. The service was incredible and we received so many compliments on how smoothly everything went! I could not recommend Westwood CC and Janie's all-star team enough!

    Excellent Service & Amazing Venue!!

    Westwood helped make the wedding of our dreams a reality! Janie was super flexible and accommodating when we shared our vision of the day. From food /beverage selection to floor layout and catering service the day of, Janie and her team knocked it out of the park. We got so much positive feedback from our guests on how good the food was and how great the catering service was. I believe Westwood has one of the best ballrooms in the DMV area. It's naturally elegant and sophisticated- you don't need to do much to the room to make it look AMAZING! Thanks Janie for all that you and the WWCC team did to make our day a dream! :)

    I can't say enough good things about our experience with Westwood Country Club! The staff, especially the event coordinator, Janie, were wonderful to work with! They helped us to have a very happy, beautiful and memorable wedding day!

    I had my wedding this past June at Westwood Country Club. Planning this wedding was a dream working with Janie! She keeps everyone so informed, is so easy to get in contact with, and is SO flexible and accommodating! Planning the final guest list for my wedding was great, because Westwood Country Club is one of the largest venues my husband and I were able to find. We looked at so many venues that wouldn't have been able to accommodate all the guests we wanted to invite. The wedding itself went perfectly. My guests loved the venue and the food. They loved the balconies that overlook the beautiful golf course. My wedding photos turned out incredible from all the beautiful spots to take pictures. My guests also loved the convenience of the location of Westwood Country Club, right in Vienna. Overall, I am so happy I chose to have my wedding here! I highly recommend having Westwood Country Club as your wedding venue!

    We LOVED having our wedding at Westwood Country Club. Janie and the rest of the team were amazing and we honestly couldn't have picked a better venue. Their team was so flexible and understanding with every one of our needs. The ballroom is one of the best ballrooms in the DC area, so spacious with gorgeous chandeliers and large windows with balconies.

    We chose Westwood for our wedding for two reasons; the location and the ballroom. The location is perfect especially for out-of-town guests. We had room blocks in Tysons which was a good central location for those who wanted to venture into D.C. while in town. The ballroom is by far the most beautiful that I looked at for our wedding. A lot of other ballrooms had low ceilings and were smaller in comparison. Westwood also provides a larger than typical dance floor which was a nice bonus.

    We worked with Lisa through out our planning. She was attentive and easy to work with. She also gave us great recommendations on vendors and ideas for the wedding. If you plan to have your ceremony there I highly recommend having the room draped. It makes a huge difference and the contact Lisa gave us did a beautiful job! The staff at Westwood did an amazing job flipping the room too! It was a tight window and everything looked perfect for the reception. All of our guests enjoyed the food and bar - we also had late night sliders and fries, which were delicious! I'd definitely recommend adding them! Westwood worked with us on the menu - we were able to cater to guests with dietary restrictions seamlessly.

    Westwood has a beautiful golf course that serves as a picturesque backdrop for photos. The only thing is that it does depend on the day on where you will be able to take photos since there are golfers on the course. Also, only the bride and groom can go onto the course for photos. Lisa drove us plus the photographers and videographer out on to the course. She did her best in finding us spots for photos., but the course was busy as it was Columbus Day weekend. Even with that limitation we got some of the most beautiful shots. It is such a beautiful venue with a wonderful team. We found it to be the perfect venue for our wedding day.

    We loved our wedding at Westwood. We were able to have both the ceremony and reception at the location. Janie and her team is amazing, they added a ton of little touches that make it really special. It was so great to not have to worry about anything the day of, and there was just a team that took care of every little detail. The service was second to none, and we appreciate all the staff!

    Westwood is by far the most beautiful venue to have your wedding in. Not only is it beautiful but the location is perfect, less than 5 minutes from Tysons and ample free parking for the guests. The property is beautiful when it comes to pictures (however you should note that you can't go onto the golf course itself, just the perimeter but that is still good since the background of the photos will be beautiful). The staff is very professional, courteous, and kind. Janie and her team went above and beyond our expectations. We had an outside caterer as well as other outside vendors but Janie and her team brought them all together. Everything was superb! The only recommendation I would make for future brides is to get at least a day of coordinator who can run the details of your wedding.

    Your only daughter’s wedding is one of those events of a lifetime that is special to everyone. Westwood truly made that dream come true….
    Our daughter’s wedding reception took place in August 2016. Westwood’s location is ideal for a wedding venue. Everything was extremely accessible, since our church is one mile away and the hotel blocks in Tyson’s were less than two miles away.

    From the start Janie Mathieson, Director of Food & Beverage, and all the staff at Westwood were responsive and dedicated to make the wedding an outstanding event. They were a joy to work with, are very professional, and are truly interested in creating an idyllic occasion.

    The space is wonderful, with beautiful views of the golf course. The area reserved for the cocktail hour has plenty of space for guests to mingle, even with a string quartet and passed hors d’oeuvres service (which were delicious!).

    The ballroom set-up was spectacular, and guests had the chance to go outside to the balconies to see the beautiful golf course. Even with a sit-down dinner for 185 guests, a band, dance floor, dessert/coffee set-up, there was plenty of room for everyone to move around comfortably.

    We had so many compliments about the meal, which included a combination of filet mignon and salmon entrees. Even the nonmeat-eaters tried and loved it. The service was impeccable.

    The evening could not worked out better and people had such a good time. Westwood worked with us patiently throughout the whole process and implemented all the details flawlessly. We would highly recommend the services of Westwood Country Club and very grateful to them to make our dream come true.

    My daughter wanted a winter wedding and we needed to find an elegant place close by that would have enough space to accommodate both the wedding and reception. The moment we saw Westwood, we fell in love with the place. It's elegant, refined, a throwback to a more beautiful and elegant time. Even better, their banquet hall is large and can easily accommodate 250 people or in our case, we could take 1/3 of the room and turn it into the most beautiful white, ethereal chapel for the wedding. That is what we did. And we worked beautifully with Janie Mathieson and her staff to make it happen. Janie was never too busy to meet with us at the drop of hat, to answer our many basic questions (this was our first wedding). And the food....let me rhapsodize about the food we were served. The hors d'oevres were succulent. We had juicy, lamb chops, beef satay and spanakopitas. These were plentiful. Dinner was the usual beef or chicken but...what beef , what chicken! The filet mignon was the tastiest filet mignon I ever had and the chicken was as fabulous. Congratulations to the chef for serving such delighhtful food. So on all counts, I highly recommend the Westwood Country Club for your wedding!

    We booked a wedding date a year and a half out and knew that the wedding would be perfect. Then came Derecho 2012 knocking out power all over. The Westwood staff worked furiously to find another venue and they moved everything (food, linens, staff) to a new location. They helped us have the most memorable wedding ever and they took a very personal interest in making this happen. Only disappointment is that we could not have it in their ballroom as planned. This venue would make any couple's dream come true. They are fantastic to work with and in a most beautiful location.

    Westwood Country club was a delight to work with. Dalila was beyond helpful and made it so I did not need a wedding coordinator. Every detail was taken care of, the site was beautiful, and the guests have been raving about the food. Took up most of my budget, but worth every penny.

    It was an absolutely delightful experience working with Dalila and Lisa at Westwood Country Club. They were both so professional, helpful, creative and responsive.
    The venue looked beautiful on the day of our event. The wait and bar staff were all so attentive, my guests actually made comments to me about how nice the staff was there. All of the food, appetizers and dinner were prepared and presented beautifully.
    I was a guest at my own party ! That is the highest compliment I can pay.

    We celebrated the 4th of July with spectacular fireworks but even more spectacular for us was the wedding celebration of Andrew and Eleni’s wedding on June 21 thanks to Dalila Dougly and her team.

    Preparing for my daughter’s wedding was over a year and a half in the making. Details, details, details… from deciding on a venue to choosing a photographer, band, DJ, organist, limo service, florist, and bakery, … not to mention dresses, tuxes, gifts, favors, invitations, hotel reservations all of which turned into a dream come true. It was a celebration that was a culmination of finesse, splendor, elegance and grandeur creating a memory of a lifetime.

    Dalila held my hand, encouraged, inspired and guided me in my quest. What a blessing she was to work with. What a blessing she is for Westwood Country Club. Dalila is the gem and shining light that made our wedding celebration a first class, five star gala. She is a talented experienced professional and was responsive and attentive to every detail.

    The ballroom was breathtaking with the beautiful chandeliers and the open view of the golf course. Our complements to the chef, bartenders and staff. Everyone left overwhelmingly satisfied with praises galore. I will definitely recommend Westwood country Club as a venue and especially Dalila and her team to others. Dalila gave me so much peace of mind throughout the process and especially on the day of Andrew and Eleni’s wedding celebration!

    Our wedding was held on April 26, 2014. Everything that Westwood Country Club did was wonderful - the food, the room setup, the waiters, the cocktail area, the coordination of the whole evening's events, their regard for the band members and the photographers, and their help with the beautiful pictures around the Club. Their event coordinator, Dalila, was always gracious, helpful and prompt with any questions or concerns that I had. It was definitely a wedding to remember!

    It was a beautiful setting, we were able to hold the wedding ceremony, happy hour, and reception all in the same place. The catering by the club was exceptional, it is the only wedding that I've ever been to where all the tables were served at the same time. The dinner and alcohol packages were reasonably priced yet flexible. The catering director coordinated with all of the vendors so there were absolutely no problems. We were able to completely enjoy the entire event with no stress. I can't say enough wonderful things about having an event here, they were organized, delightful to work with and really wonderful to work with.

    Westwood Country Club's reply:

    Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We are so happy to hear that everything went well with your wedding! We wish you all the best! Lisa, Janie and the entire Catering Staff
