After selling our last venue after a covid delay , we landed on The Wilshire. Joe'l helped us every step of the way, she made a very stressful process easy, right down to a zoom call for our final meeting, due to my schedule conflicts. The food was amazing! The grand ballroom was perfect , everything to the lighting to the friendly staff and bridal attendants. The selling point for us was the hotel is attached, and even though we had a "no kid" wedding , our guests were able to bring the kids to the room and have a sitter or check up on them as needed. Even the hotel was great about grouping us together. We are Italian and picky about our food, but everyone was raving about everything they had. The staff was great. I was having so much fun, I didn't get to eat my dinner, plus I knew I'd get it on my dress , and they boxes up my dinner and sent it to the room and brought me chicken fingers so I wouldn't make a mess. Little stuff like that I definitely appreciated! Everyone complimented on how the day went so smooth and how everything was in one place and easy for the older generations. I would definitely recommend this venue!

I have no words. Best venue ever!! We had our wedding here about 2 weeks ago. First of all, the food was amazing. Everyone at my party couldn’t believe how much food there was and how great it tasted. Second of all, the service was phenomenal. They were all very attentive especially Joe’l and Gia. Lastly, the venue is truly just beautiful inside and outside. Thank you all at the Wilshire for making my wedding as magical as it was ❤️.

This place is so beautiful. Came here for a wedding and from start to finish each room for cocktail hour. The ceremony and reception was gorgeous. The bartenders didnt know how to make the drinks though which was sad. The food is great. The staff is quick and friendly. Valet parking available and its adjacent to the hotel which is helpful if you are coming here for a wedding or event.

I don't even know where to start. One of the top two best decisions that my husband and I made throughout all of our wedding planning, was booking The Wilshire for our reception. Joe'l, Kirby, and the rest of the staff and professionals at The Wilshire were outstanding. The food was amazing! We worked closely with Joe'l, who's one of the Director of Events. She made sure that we had plenty of food from cocktail hour brought to us in a private dining area near the bridal salon. There was so much food for us, we hardly got through a quarter of it, and everything we tasted was delicious. They were also kind enough to bring our dinner to us early and again in a private dining area so that we could actually eat and enjoy our meal. Many of our guests reached out to let us know how much they enjoyed the food at The Wilshire during both the cocktail hour and dinner reception, which seemed to be a pleasant surprise for them as most people expect good food during cocktail hour and mediocre food during the main course. However, at The Wilshire, you will get exceptional food during both! We had a bridal attendant, Mikayla, who took care of us and made sure we had drinks when we wanted. They checked in with us often to make sure that we were happy with everything. After the reception, we stayed at The Wilshire Grand Hotel, and Joe'l made sure that we had an extra meal each, packed and stored in our hotel room fridge for us to enjoy after the party. All of our guests seemed extremely satisfied with the bartenders as well, who were making mixed drinks and did an excellent job making our signature cocktails—they were delicious. I'm trying to think of something that the team at The Wilshire could do to make the service better, but I can't think of anything because we thought they were absolutely perfect. We are so happy with how beautifully our wedding reception went.
