My wife and I attended an August pandemic wedding at Green Gates At Flowing Lake and it was…read moreperfect! Here's why: 1) Outdoor Space: The campus allows for an entirely outdoor wedding, perfect during the pandemic. The ceremony was on the lawn overlooking the lake with the reception inside an open-air barn. There's plenty of space to social distance as well. 2) Beauty: With the view of the lake and forest, it's picture perfect. They decorate the space simply, but stunningly for weddings. If you want a beautiful wedding space outside of Seattle, check out Green Gates At Flowing Lake.

A perfect spot for a DJ with dedicated isolated power outlets. Owners were friendly and always there if anything was needed, but weren't in the way. If you're a couple getting married, I definitely recommend, and fellow DJs, don't hesitate to pick up a gig there!

My husband and I were married at the Barn at Holly Farm in May 2019 (I meant to leave a review…read moresooner but life quickly got in the way). We worked with Karmel as well as a flower vendor (Dirty Girl) and photographers (GSquared) whom Karmel recommended. Part of the reason we were drawn to this venue is because of the good works that they do with equine therapy and rescued farm animals. Our experience with the Barn was fantastic. We really hit it off with Karmel and she made planning the wedding fun and low stress. The vendors she recommended also did a great job and at the end of the day, are just good people. I feel like they all connected with us on a personal level. One fun perk this venue offered is for a small fee someone from the Barn takes guests out to meet some of the animals (chickens, goats, llamas, etc.) during the social hour before the reception. This was a lovely and charming way to start the celebration. I think that what we paid was fair for the service we received. The only snafu at the very end was having to pack our own stuff even though we paid extra for the clean-up service, but it was mostly just our personal belongings and it wasn't a big deal. There's always a little wedding drama - in this case our own guests, and the way that Karmel and vendors went about handling it to reduce the stress on us was beautifully done. They were respectful and discreet and we were incredibly grateful for their support. The space itself on the day of the wedding was absolutely stunning and everything was set up exactly as we had planned. It was a truly magical day and I'm so glad we chose the Barn to get married. I'd do it all over again. :)

TERRIBLE venue management under the guise of a beautiful space…read more In short, three months after signing with The Barn at Holly Farm we were told management would rather start a year of self-initiated renovations than honor their contract with us. Their decision not only affected us, but at least nine other couples who had booked weddings there too. For my fiancé and me, this left us with less than 7 months before the wedding date to find a new venue and re-plan our entire event. It took over a month for us to find a new space that could accommodate our wedding size indoors. To receive a full refund, we were expected to sign a document that stated we wouldn't make any comments which "may, directly or indirectly, disparage" The Barn at Holly Farm (obviously we did not accept those terms). It then took over a month to receive the funds for The Barn's breach of contract. I hope no other couple has to experience The Barn at Holly Farm's mismanagement and the nightmare experience they caused at least 10 couples in 2021!

It did look fairly small though. The beers I tried were good. Their Apex West Coast IPA is one of their flagships and it was solid. Also had to try the Ryes of the Pumpkin King!

Overall, not necessarily a destination, but a nice spot to hit up if you're in the area.

Incredibly beautiful venue! As others have said, Stacy and Matt are phenomenal as they were so…read morehelpful throughout the entire wedding process. My now husband and I could not say no to a venue that was 1) beautiful 2) great price 3) had a closet full of decor we could use and 4) responsive owners that answered any questions that came their way. The decor planning was relatively easy since we used pieces from the closet for our entrance and reception tables. Most folks said I didn't look stressed throughout the process, and I believe most of that stemmed from Gray Bridge making it incredibly simple for us to use their items. We just had to take care of personal pieces, such as the entrance sign or guestbook. The only downside to this place is the drive, which is roughly an hour away from Seattle (or 1.5X during traffic time). We overcame that by starting our ceremony earlier than usual (330PM) so we could have our guests enjoy the venue for roughly 7.5-8 hours. Another perk to this venue is they allow any vendors onsite. We weren't stuck with having to buy X cases of wines at wineries or sticking with food caterers that were not on par to the quality we were looking for. Overall, I highly recommend you checking out this place and booking ASAP since their dates fill up well a year in advance.

We got married here three months ago and should have written this review sooner but honestly it's…read moreimpossible to list all the amazing things about Gray Bridge! To start with, the venue is absolutely gorgeous (our wedding was in June). We wanted a beautiful PNW backdrop to show our out of state guests and that is definitely what we got - everyone complimented us on it later! Gray Bridge is set up in a thoughtful layout that makes wedding days flow smoothly while also providing smaller, intimate moments for photos, games, mingling, etc. Additionally, Stacy and Matt go above and beyond to make sure everything is on track and the venue is set up to each couple's specific wedding day vision. It took so much of the uncertainty out of wedding planning to know that we were in such good hands and that Stacy and Matt had great relationships with our vendors, which really goes a long way. Finally, all the decor available to borrow definitely kept costs (and stress) down! We definitely hope to be back here as guests someday :)

I signed up for one of Bella Luna Farm's cooking classes, "The Persian Grill," where we learned to…read morecook 3 different kebabs and a few sides. It was such a unique event in a beautiful space! There were 16 people in the class, and we rotated preparation for different items - so everyone gets a chance to cook but you don't have to be working for the full 3 hours nonstop. Chef was very passionate and shared the story behind the foods, as well as cultural context associated with some of the components. This was different than other cooking classes I've taken before, and all the food was so tasty! We made so much food that the 16 of us couldn't even finish it all. Highly recommend for a special occasion date night or friend reunion - given the high cost of the class. Five stars all around!
