    The way these women handled my wedding was absolutely perfect. I mean it literally took every bit of stress out of the process and these women are so kind as well as pliable, meaning they work around what you want.

    We got married at Elope 253 on 4/20/19 and it could not have been more perfect! Rochelle was awesome to work with! We met with her twice before the big day and I have to say I was not stressed about the ceremony at all! All of our guests continue to rave about how cute the venue is and how wonderful Rochelle spoke of us at the ceremony! I 100% recommend you consider having your ceremony at Elope 253!

    This is the perfect venue for a small but elegant wedding. Beautifully decorated, professionally managed and budget friendly. We loved it!

    Rochelle could not have made our day any more special, we were over the moon with our ceremony. When we couldn't decide on entrance music, she found an instrumental version of a song we love that made it suddenly seem appropriate in that setting. We requested a non-religious ceremony and she totally nailed it. She made our big day as easy as she could and we appreciate her so much for it. The flowers were gorgeous, the donuts were delicious and the photographer part of our package was awesome. She took 2 people who don't like being the center of attention and made them feel comfortable in front of the camera even with all their awkwardness.

    We're so very happy that we found Elope 253 for our wedding ceremony! It was exactly what we wanted. Craig and Rochelle were flexible, accommodating and truly invested in making our day as special as possible. We decided to not have any family or friends in attendance, it would have been impossible to keep it under the 20 person maximum, and we wanted a small intimate ceremony so they made sure we had proper witnesses. We chose to add the professional photography package and are extremely pleased. The photo session was really fun and we managed to stay ahead of the rain! Everything really worked out perfectly.

    This ceremony was everything I wanted and more. Bronwen was absolutely lovely and even after we…read morebrought her the wrong documents TWICE (yes, embarrassing) she allowed us to still carry on with the ceremony. If you're looking for something laid back and small but still special I highly recommend this spot. We were able to have our three dogs with us plus another one last minute. The whole experience was lovely. You get two cute little shot glasses which we after took into a local bar for our first shot as a married couple together. I was hesitant to pick this spot but it was just perfect. Thank you so much!

When we became engaged, we realized neither my husband or I wanted to deal with a big wedding- we just wanted a fun, weird low key day that was easy enough that we could really focus on our love, rather than 150 guests. I googled Shotgun Ceremonies, having walked by it dozens of times during First Thursday and shot them an email. They replied immediately and before I knew it we were booked for the next week. We had come up with a somewhat elaborate lie to get our immediate family down there without letting them know why. Shotgun was completely accommodating and helped us pull off the best surprise ever. You can tell these folks love their job, and who wouldn't? They celebrate love every day. Our special day is one I will never forget. I truly can't recommend them enough.

    Perfect for couples who want a BEAUTIFUL wedding (and on a budget!)…read more If you want a royal wedding, HERE YOU GO! We loved hosting our special wedding day at Bastyr University Chapel! We absolutely adored the venue, and our guests did too! Thank you Emma for all your help during rehearsal and during the event to ensure all the equipment and everything was working flawlessly. We loved it and appreciate all the memories. We choose this chapel for its incredible beauty, all inclusivity equipment, beautiful location and budget. We wanted to spend less time on things like decor and setting up tables/av, and more time with our loved ones. Best pros which saved us a ton of time and funds. 1) No decor needed - the chapel is already gorgeous, and so is the exterior if you want some photos/videos 2) Equipment included - mics, av, stand, chairs, check-in tables, table cloths, brooms, changing rooms, table cloths, etc. 3) Amazing floor space and acoustics: We had lots of bollywood style dancing and performances so floor space and acoustics were important! 4) Serene - In the middle of a state park (perfect for fall, winter or summer) Free parking for all your guests! 5) Someone on sight to help ensure things run smoothly (note, this is a staff member, and not a wedding coordinator or technician) 6) Fits up to 200+ people do you don't have to compromise on the guestlist. We only had around 80 max to keep it intimate as we wanted to interact with everyone. 7) Affordable price - We would probably not have had a wedding if venue prices were any higher! Honestly this is a great deal. Cons: - Strict no food policy, though the cafeteria is right. I wish they allowed us to at least serve cake/dessert outside within the time frame as it's a cultural tradition. We brought water bottles for our guests. Instead of a traditional ceremony followed by reception, we had an intimate party the day prior at our apartment lounge with food. Cost as of 10/2019 is $1400 for summer-Oct, and $1100 for winter months. $250 deposit. This was one of the best prices when we were shopping around. Alternatives were community centers but they required us to do all the setup and decor, which we didn't want to burden our loved ones with. Absolutely Recommend for any couple who wants a BEAUTIFUL wedding (and on a budget!).

    I recently got married here…read more I say that with such ease now, but for anyone who has ever been part of planning a wedding, you know that it is anything but easy! Pam Vaughn, the events coordinator there was a pleasure to work with. They were very accommodating to us regarding our budget and the whole thing went off pretty seamlessly. A couple of perks about Bastyr: - The chapel is huge and gorgeous - if you like traditional European style churches, you will love their chapel! - They've started doing receptions there also and the food is top notch. They grow a lot of things locally on their grounds and supplement by buying things locally, so everything is excellect quality. We had a chicken dish and their vegetarian lasagna and had nothing but glowing reviews from all of our guests. - Compared to a lot of places I priced out, they are very affordable. Having a wedding officiating business as well, I will definitely be referring Bastyr to my brides.

Gluten free catering by law needs to be done in a gluten free commercial kitchen!, You need to offer more then one cater. All venues supply a list of preferred caters. Most venues will ether provide a list of caters they prefer you to use and never dictate what bakery you HAVE TO USE or FLORIST!!! Also, you have to use their bakery for your cake or cupcakes, oh but wait, they are booking weddings and have no bakery yet!! What if I don't like the cake or the icing? What if they can't do the design I want? Bottom line my wedding, my day not what the venue says I have to do. Oh and by the way, when a perspective customer calls? Know your catering companies name and don't ask your customers for bakery referrals!! If your booking weddings taking money and offering a 3 tried cake, you better have a bakery don't you think? Pretty scary. So know we will not be having our wedding here. Wine & Rosses in Auburn has our business!, I can see you want to network and help customers by one stop shopping, but have options and lots of them!; Also your a Christian company, but you know by law same sex marriages you can not discriminate! Also your selling Best of luck.

I will always remember my wedding day as beautiful and stress free because of the services provided by this business. A Chapel on Swan's Trail is a gorgeous venue with an incredibly helpful staff. The Chapel is over 100 years old and located up high on a hill with a beautiful view overlooking the Snohomish valley and downtown Everett. The grounds are gorgeous with lush landscaping and something to see everywhere you look. The best part of the venue, in my opinion, is that it can be held indoor or outdoor. On my wedding day we hoped for an outdoor ceremony but were able to easily move the ceremony indoors once we saw the rain was not giving up. We moved indoor for the ceremony but the rain broke and we were still able to have the reception outdoors. Lynn, the owner of the Chapel, seriously took the weight off of me in helping figure out all of the details in planning and she took lead on the day of. The first time I went to the chapel to meet with Lynn I was overwhelmed and after leaving I felt like things were making sense and everything was under control. Lynn even recommended our pastor, Reuben Sapien, whom everyone loved. She was able to provide all of the linens on site and even provided staff to help throughout the wedding day and (which was huge) a cleanup crew so we did not have to worry about that. If you are searching for a venue, take the time to meet with Lynn and tour the property yourself and you will see the care that goes into planning your day and into the property to make it special.
