We LOVED our wedding at IslandWood! I worked on the events team at IslandWood from 2019-2021, before shifting careers completely. I always loved to work the weddings, and imagined that my dream wedding would be there one day. I am so so happy that I was able to make that dream come true!! IslandWood goes above and beyond to make the guests' and bride & groom's experiences absolutely perfect! I personally already knew the food would taste amazing, as I used to always eat the leftovers when I worked there. But eating food from a menu that my husband and I got to custom design with Jim was truly an unforgettable experience. All of the guests loved the food, and Jim and his team tackle every request that you throw their way! My husband is Dominican, and Jim made sure that the Dominican food he made was authentic and delicious. At one point, my husband's aunts asked whether a Dominican was working in the kitchen! Moreover, Erica, our event planner, went above and beyond to ensure that we had a perfect weekend! IslandWood is a magical place, and your wedding will be magical if you choose to have it there. Yes, it is pricey, but the experiences that you, your family, and your friends will leave with are truly invaluable!

We can’t say enough good things about having our wedding at Orting Manor. My (now) husband and I went to tour just ONE venue and absolutely fell in love with the charm of Orting Manor. Not only were we given the option to rent the entire property, but they also had decor available to use for our big day. We felt so supported and were able to ask questions, bounce ideas off, and were given ample information leading up to the day. It’s not often you find a wedding venue that can truly do it all. In addition, Tiphany (venue manager) was a delight to work with from the first day - and we immediately knew we wanted to work with her! Breanna was our day of venue host and she was perfection and helped make the day run smooth! Our guests had the best time, and couldn’t stop raving about how beautiful the venue was. It is intimate but also enough space to hold more than enough people. Orting Manor will forever hold such a place in our heart and we can’t recommend it enough.

About wedding venues in Shelton, WA

Washington offers a stunning backdrop for weddings with incredible diversity in settings. You'll find dramatic mountain ceremonies at Crystal Mountain Resort and waterfront celebrations at The Edgewater Hotel where you can literally say "I do" above the waters of Puget Sound. These venues showcase what makes the Pacific Northwest so special for couples looking to create memorable wedding experiences.

What Makes Washington Wedding Venues Uniquely Special?

The Evergreen State delivers venues that work with practically any wedding vision you might have. Evergreen Gardens in Ferndale gives you multiple garden spaces and a covered pavilion that handles Washington's unpredictable weather without sacrificing beauty. The 101 in Seattle lets you bring in your own preferred vendors in a spacious open environment while Sodo Park blends industrial-chic architecture with elegant sophistication. You'll find the perfect balance of practicality and atmosphere no matter what style speaks to you.

How Much Do Washington Wedding Venues Typically Cost?

Wedding venues in Washington average $6,399 which represents about 14% of your total wedding budget. That's actually below the national average of $6,500-$12,000 or 25% of total costs so you're getting better value here than in many other states. Most couples pay between $5,800 on the lower end to around $7,000 for premium locations depending on what features and services you need.

For different guest counts you can expect these approximate total wedding budgets: Small weddings with 50 guests run about $20,250 while 100-guest celebrations average $33,177. Medium-sized weddings with 150 guests typically cost $45,331 and 200-guest events reach approximately $56,197. Larger celebrations with 250 guests average $67,063 while truly big weddings with 300 guests generally cost around $77,929. These numbers help you plan realistically based on your guest list size.

Where Can You Find Accessible Venues in Washington State?

Crystal Mountain Resort offers exceptional accessibility with its scenic gondola that takes guests directly to mountaintop ceremony platforms. No hiking required for anyone with mobility considerations. The 101 in Seattle provides full wheelchair accessibility throughout their modern venue while Evergreen Gardens in Ferndale combines accessibility with that weather-adaptable covered pavilion.

Liljebeck Farms in Woodinville provides versatile indoor-outdoor settings that support creative virtual elements while The Edgewater Hotel can accommodate interactive components for distant loved ones. You should confirm specific virtual offerings directly with these venues as technology options evolve rapidly. Even guests who can't attend in person can feel genuinely included with the right setup.

What Seasonal Factors Should Influence Your Washington Venue Choice?

August is peak inquiry time for Washington weddings and books up fast. Western Washington venues typically incorporate elegant indoor spaces with seamless transitions to outdoor areas giving you weather flexibility. Eastern Washington benefits from significantly more sunshine days between May-September making outdoor ceremonies more reliable. Mountain venues require snow contingency planning from November-April. The season you choose will dramatically impact both the look and logistics of your celebration.

How Can Washington Venues Balance Beauty with Practical Needs?

When selecting your Washington venue consider both its Instagram-worthy appeal and how it handles the nuts and bolts of your big day. Venues like Crystal Mountain Resort offer experienced on-site wedding teams while others may require more independent planning or outside coordination. The ideal venue combines Washington's natural beauty with practical amenities that support your vision without blowing your budget. You deserve both stunning backdrops and smooth logistics for a truly magical yet stress-free celebration.
