We were married in August 2023. It was a beautiful ceremony space on the waterfront. The pavilion is beautifully situated above the marina. As the evening hit us the lights and water were magical. We departed on boat in the moonlight. We would very much recommend.

This venue is absolutely beautiful and was the perfect setting for my wedding. I loved having the Puget Sound and Narrows Bridge in the backdrop as we said, “I do.”. Having access to the dock for golden hour photos made for some beautiful photos. The venue was a great value for everything it comes with – tables, chairs and linens that view.. it can’t be beat. It was a hot, beautiful, but hot summer day (high of 83 degrees) when I got married at the venue and it was pretty hot throughout the venue, but especially inside bridal suite and cove (where we took a lot of our bridal & family photos). There were some fans in the bridal suite, but I wish I had brought extra fans for the bridal suite because it was HOT. It would have been nice if I had a hand fan for myself during photos because it was just super warm and I had a big hot dress on. The fans inside the main area of the venue helped when you were standing near them, and having the garage doors open helped too but the venue could definitely benefit from a few more giant fans. Other than the heat, it was a great venue. If I had to do anything differently, it would just be to bring some extra fans. It was a sweaty party, but it was a fun party! The Waterfront Venue is a great venue to host your event.

--* PLEASE NOTE: We only host SUMMER weddings between Memorial Day and Labor Day each year. *-- This venue is on a farm that has been in our family for five generations. We are a new venue, but we love this special place so much and wanted to share its beauty with others. The ceremony space is beneath the canopy of an old-growth spruce tree beside a creek. We were married in this spot and it was truly magical! There is an open-air field just beyond the tree that is available as a reception space. We offer a bridal dressing room within a 10'x10' decorated "glamping" tent. We also have the add-on option of a 15'x20' event tent available (please see pictures in the gallery). If you're interested, we also have goats, pigs, chickens, and old farm implements available for photo opportunities. We also now provide string lights and electricity (suitable for a food truck) in the reception field!
