Ray's was recommended by a friend of a friend and are so pleased with how everything turned out! We did not know where to begin with our planning and had the help of Ray's staff to guide us through all the details leading up to our wedding and reception. What helped us was the promptness in answering our questions and quickly shifting gears as we got closer to our wedding. The food options are incredible and loved that we did not have to stress about additional vendors for our big day! The day of, Peter was so helpful and quick to solve any problem that came up. Ray's offers the best backdrop for photos and taking in the beauty of Puget Sound! I would also add, this experience was worth every penny! Thank you to Hannah and Peter for being our support and to the Ray's catering staff for being so wonderful!
