The entrance is very grand, with huge waterfalls cascading down and leading you on to the spacious, modern reception.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Our check in was very easy, the staff are lovely, and we went to find our room on the 15<sup>th<\/sup> floor. Our room, was huge, with two double beds and a balcony with panoramic views of Anaheim and overlooking the incredibly tempting swimming pool! There\u2019s so much to do in Anaheim, however, and we wanted to get out and explore.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-118175\" title=\"Deluxe Double Marriott\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Deluxe-Double-DBDB-2.jpg\" alt=\"Deluxe Double Marriott\" width=\"870\" height=\"509\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-118175\" title=\"Deluxe Double Marriott\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Deluxe-Double-DBDB-2.jpg\" alt=\"Deluxe Double Marriott\" width=\"870\" height=\"509\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-118177\" title=\"Anaheim Marriott \" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/High-Floor_Balcony-City-View_Sunset-2.jpg\" alt=\"Anaheim Marriott\" width=\"870\" height=\"580\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-118177\" title=\"Anaheim Marriott \" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/High-Floor_Balcony-City-View_Sunset-2.jpg\" alt=\"Anaheim Marriott\" width=\"870\" height=\"580\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You can purchase your tickets for the shuttle bus to Disneyland in the hotel which is so convenient, so we hopped on a bus and had a wonderful day out. Returning to the hotel was a welcome relief after a day of fun and we dined outside next to the pool.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The food is delicious \u2013 expertly prepared and served. I had an amazing salad and a delicious cr\u00e8me brulee cheesecake. With a great bar and outdoor heaters, the space is really relaxed and comfortable and we chilled out there for a while.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-117993\" title=\"Anaheim Marriott\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/laxah_phototour134-2.jpg\" alt=\"Anaheim Marriott\" width=\"870\" height=\"603\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-117993\" title=\"Anaheim Marriott\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/laxah_phototour134-2.jpg\" alt=\"Anaheim Marriott\" width=\"870\" height=\"603\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-118000\" title=\"Disney Land Los Angeles \" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/laxah_phototour156-2.jpg\" alt=\"Disney Land Los Angeles\" width=\"870\" height=\"603\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-118000\" title=\"Disney Land Los Angeles \" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/laxah_phototour156-2.jpg\" alt=\"Disney Land Los Angeles\" width=\"870\" height=\"603\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After a busy day at Disney, we definitely needed a good night\u2019s sleep, and we certainly got it!

Their rooms are also ideal for South Asian and Indian weddings \u2013 they are well used to catering for these weddings and the rooms really lend themselves to these styles.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-117996\" title=\"Anaheim Marriott\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/laxah_phototour141-2.jpg\" alt=\"Anaheim Marriott\" width=\"870\" height=\"603\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-117996\" title=\"Anaheim Marriott\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/laxah_phototour141-2.jpg\" alt=\"Anaheim Marriott\" width=\"870\" height=\"603\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-117997\" title=\"Anaheim Marriott\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/laxah_phototour143-2.jpg\" alt=\"Anaheim Marriott\" width=\"870\" height=\"603\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-117997\" title=\"Anaheim Marriott\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/laxah_phototour143-2.jpg\" alt=\"Anaheim Marriott\" width=\"870\" height=\"603\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There are four ballrooms, each as grand as the next, with the ability to accommodate from around 50 to over 2000 guests! If however, like me, you\u2019d struggle to invite that many people, they can alter the rooms to suit your guest numbers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">These spaces are really versatile; they can be adjusted however you\u2019d wish. You have the choice of the Marquis Ballroom, the largest space; the Platinum Ballroom, Grand Ballroom and Orange County Ballroom, and each is bedecked with beautiful chandeliers, atmospheric lighting and can be tailored to your needs with a dancefloor, drapes, more lighting and of course, flowers, fabric and other items to suit your chosen colour palette.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-118003\" title=\"Luxury Weddings\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/laxah_weddings-2.jpg\" alt=\"Luxury Weddings\" width=\"870\" height=\"234\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-118003\" title=\"Luxury Weddings\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/laxah_weddings-2.jpg\" alt=\"Luxury Weddings\" width=\"870\" height=\"234\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The beauty of this place is that once you\u2019ve chosen your space, their staff will work with you to make sure every detail is perfect. They offer three comprehensive wedding packages, including your wedding cake, a three course dinner and champagne for the toast and can accommodate every wish and family tradition to ensure your day is simply perfect. And at the end of the day, there\u2019s plenty of room for your guests to stay the night &#8211; they even offer a brunch the next day, so you can catch up with friends and family to relive the events of the previous day.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The hotel is also ideally situated for beach trips, shopping and, of course, no trip would be complete without a visit to Disneyland, just two blocks from the hotel. If you chose this as your wedding venue, you could extend your stay and enjoy more of what Anaheim has to offer with a glorious Orange County honeymoon. Or if you\u2019ve already planned your wedding day, a honeymoon here would be a superb choice.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-118001\" title=\"Los Angeles Hotels\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/laxah_phototour117-3.jpg\" alt=\"Los Angeles Hotels\" width=\"870\" height=\"603\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-118001\" title=\"Los Angeles Hotels\" src=\"http:\/\/5starweddingdirectory.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/laxah_phototour117-3.jpg\" alt=\"Los Angeles Hotels\" width=\"870\" height=\"603\" \/><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Anaheim Marriott staff are lovely, the service is excellent and we enjoyed our stay very much.
