UNBELIEVABLE from start to finish!!!! My daughter and her fiance are low-key people (not "low-key"…read morelike my students misuse it; the old-fashioned low-key). They searched and searched for a place that matched their vibe and their pocketbook. And even though Sadie Lake was almost two hours from their home, it proved to be the perfect choice (well, except for the local dinosaur infestation). From Day 1, they' were in love with DeeDee. She offered lots of items for free that couples usually have to pay to rent or buy. Everything was all listed on her website so even those of us in other states could peruse. The location is so beautiful and the premises really felt quaint and homey, not formal and stuffy like some venues. And then there were things that no other venue offered, like the boat on the lake for some fantastic photos! I think the bonus was that it was probably the least expensive place they looked at. Deedee's not in it to make bank; she does it because she has a beautiful place that she wants others to enjoy on their special day. As the mother-of-the-bride, I'm not surprised that I thought it was the second best wedding I've been to (don't I have to pick my own as #1), but soooo many guests told me they felt the same way. I can't imagine a reason why you wouldn't pick this location!!

We got married at Sadie Lake and everything was absolutely perfect. Leading up to the wedding,…read moreDeeDee was always quick to answer and allowed us to come out many times to walk around the venue. The inventory was amazing and we didn't have to buy hardly any wedding decor which saved us a bunch of time and money. I loved working with these folks and would highly recommend for any future couples.

This place is poorly managed. The owner verbally promised that everything would be handled…read moresmoothly, but on the event day it was complete chaos. Other vendors were not allowed early access to the hall as agreed, which caused cascading delays across the entire program. Additionally, the hall was not fully cleaned--trash from the previous event was still present when we entered. The décor (done by French Creek Manor) was also not up to standard, and there were multiple issues throughout the event. When these concerns were raised, the owner refused to acknowledge that the problems were due to mismanagement. There was no accountability or effort to resolve the situation. I strongly recommend against hosting your event at this property.

It was super convenient for friends who already have a kid and dog and are expecting their second one. The arrangements were good, but I would say little expensive for my liking. The starters were good but the we found the main course to be decent. They have a center stage that they can decorate as per your liking, bring out a screen if you want to play something, and overall made sure guests enjoyed the event.

Lord Hill Farms exceeded all our expectations. We booked them last summer for our late August 2025…read morewedding, and from the very beginning, their team was responsive and welcoming. As first-time wedding planners, we were nervous about pulling everything together. But LHF made the process feel seamless. With their all-inclusive offerings--catering, bar service, and even décor--they provided a detailed questionnaire that helped us visualize every aspect of our day. It truly felt like they were guiding us through the planning, not just hosting the event. The venue itself is stunning. If you've browsed their website, you already know how beautiful it is--but seeing it in person is something else. We saw our guests taking photos near the fountain and in the valley with the mountains creating the perfect summer backdrop. What really stood out, though, was the food and service. One of our aunts came over to our sweetheart table during dinner just to rave about the meal--the London Broil was perfectly tender, and the salmon was flavorful (and most importantly, not dry). They even made sure our vegetarian guests were well taken care of, which we deeply appreciated. Since most of our décor was DIY, we were a bit anxious about setup while still trying to stay relaxed on the big day. LHF made it easy. They had linens ready early and guided our families on where to place everything. The floor managers even stopped by while we were getting ready to introduce themselves and let us know they were available for anything we needed. That level of thoughtfulness and calm energy made all the difference.

Our son and his bride-to-be selected this venue for their wedding day. It is quite literally one of…read morethe most gorgeous venues and properties in Washington. We toured quite a few online, then selected our top 10 in person. We went in person to tour the grounds and immediately upon walking into the venue, my daughter-in-loves eyes LITERALLY began to twinkle. I knew right away she had fallen in love with Lord Hill Farms (LHF). And this was just us entering the reception hall. LHF properties and gardens are nothing short of exquisite. Walking thru the grounds it almost feels like Tuscan gardens. Views of the cascades. Small lakes and water fountains. The grass is beautifully green and the outdoor ceremony location has a beautiful spot over look g the lake on property and an arbor you just need to decorate. The building has a very well maintained and sexy masculine grooms room. With a. At broom on that side to keep him away from the bride. The brides room is bright and elegant with gigantic mirrors & great lighting for the ladies to get their hair and make up done. The reception are has several cozy "loungey" areas for you to sit and chat. One has a fireplace too. The bar is ample and nice but also not in your face so it doesn't take away from the venue or decor. They have chandeliers and twinkle lights already available and beautiful white drapery that makes this venue both magical and elegant at the same time. The indoor ceremony location is very nice. One of the benefits of this being ur is it can accommodate a large even. We expected 300. So when you enter the space you have beautiful pillars available to you, gold chevalier chairs lining the ceremony hall and a beautiful walk way to the stage. We rented and added the white drapes for the big reveal of the bride entering and it just made the space dreamy. The windows allow for a nice view of the outdoor grounds. The one caveat: make note of the sunset time and where the sun will be at the time of your ceremony. It was back lit so very difficult to see the bride, groom, wedding party and their faces as they were silhouetted. That was one big negative. We didn't know so we're t able to rent lighting or prep our photographer to prepare. Still waiting on pics, so hopeful that she was still able to shoot well given the challenging lighting situation. We did chose to have an indoor wedding ceremony because may is generally cold and wet. Who knew we had the most beautiful weather. The other nice thing is the venue does have audio equipment for both ceremony and reception hall. Food: with a large wedding event we went with their pasta bar. This is not basic. The chef honestly prepares a very flavorful well presented pasta bar. I am a total foodie and was expecting basic at the food tasting but it was far from that. In fact the food rating made us feel so special. The team at LHF do not leave any details out so you feel like you're popping in on someone's event. Everything from appetizers to dessert and wine. One miss is we had many gluten free guests and the team forgot to put a sign out for GF guests to request their plate so there was some confusion for many of those guests. So that was a call out I made note for the venue. It would have minimized confusion and hurt feelings. The reception hall: round and rectangular tables are available. They'll help work a nice floor plan for you. There is plenty of great lighting. A nice set up for dessert, coffee and tea, bar, DJ and areas for Photo Booth etc. we used round tables. Which also have the hood chavalier seats. When we arrived for set up, all our tables were ready for us to set up. They had white linens and silverware in pace. We opted to bring our own napkins, runners and did our own decor and it was beautiful! One note: they've change policies on lot candle/tapers, even if they are dripless. Unfortunately, we didn't find out until the day of. Which means I now have several hundred new and very expensive dripless candles I can't send back. So get yourself battery operated or candles that are IN. Container that covers the tip of the candle. I understand why, and tracy was kind enough to explain what had happened a couple weeks earlier. Unfortunately it's one bad experience that messes it up for the others. So keep that in mind if you want actual kit candles hey a full container for each one so you can have the candle lit vibe. Staff. In General the staff was very attentive, helpful and friendly. We had a couple little hiccups w a couple of their younger staff. But hole it up to youth and new work experience. Tracy and team were very receptive to the feedback. Pricing. Very reasonable for a full service. A venue that runs you 6k is not apples to apples. Be careful as you compare what you get. LHF offers full service. A special thank you and shout out to Jared. But also to Tracy and her team.

Tom (owner and operator) and his team had everything prepared and his list of vendors were super helpful! Tom has 3 meetings with you prior to the event to help make decisions and maintains the grounds beautifully. He provided everything we needed for a perfect day! Furniture, lighting, tent, bridal suite, sparklers and grooms room all included. But it is all outdoors - so we were lucky to have perfect weather! Tom is so calm, made sure the wedding day was perfect for us, everything went smoothly and he cleared everything for us after! Max 60 people and budget around $20,000 to have a wedding here just FYI, but definitely worth it! Extremely unique venue and hope to come again!

All of the details were thoughtfully chosen and the fields were just so beautiful. As part of getting married there, Tom handles all of the wedding details as the day-of planner, though his role goes so far beyond that. He brings his calm and skill to helping us pick vendors, coordinate details that we would have missed with those vendors, and then ensure the contracts look good. He had a schedule and process for ensuring everything was done by our wedding day, flexible enough to be curated to us. On the week of, he took on a lot of the finishing touches and last-second communication with the vendors so that we did not have to worry about. On the day of, he made sure all went smoothly and communicated with all of the vendors and guests where needed. All went smoothly and beautifully. We'd highly recommend Woodinville Lavender!

I don't even remember how I found it but I've known that it was THE spot for me the second I discovered it. First off, Kathy and her team are fantastic. It's family-owned and operated and an intimate team, but they made everything seamless for me. The venue is situated along the Skykomish River with views of Mt Index and of course, the stunning rustic bridge! Such a beautiful focal point. Along with having the large outdoor space for the wedding, we also got a tavern space inside that is exactly the vibe that we love. Rustic, cozy, and giving all the PNW vibes. We're super outdoorsy people so this venue was overall THE perfect fit for us. Another huge bonus is that they don't require you to use preferred vendors like most venues do. We were able to bring in whatever food we wanted (we catered a taco bar) which makes it so much easier to customize for yourself and your day. The River House was also a huge help with the alcohol arrangements, from getting all of it directly delivered to setting us up with a bartending team for the wedding. Even on a gloomy Washington day (thank godddd the rain stayed away!!) this was the most beautiful setting for our day. Thank you to the entire team at The River House for an unforgettable day and assistance in making our wedding everything we wanted!

However, it is a bit confusing as they share the same address. The house was large and comfortable. There are also separate stairs so as to minimize the chances of the groom accidentally seeing the bride before he is supposed to if that is what you're into. With 5 groomsmen, the room we got ready in was a bit tight. However, there is a different room with a foosball table that can be used as well, but then you are all not in the same room, although the other room is right next door.
