    We're getting married in an airplane hanger that some family friends own. I don't have any pictures yet, but I've done soo many walk throughs and I know it'll be gorgeous. It's in Pasco, WA and they're not asking for any money, but we plan on "gifting" them money for it.

    Port of Bellingham Ferry Cruise Terminal.
    1,000 for the entire day  8am-midnight)
    or 100 an hour if someone doesn't need that much time. :)

    We also were *this* close to choosing the Rosehill Community Center in Mukilteo which runs just about the same because it's also county owned.

    Both have incredible views of the water and little restrictions. :)
    (Oh man an airplane hanger.. that is awesome. I tried to get Fi to agree to somethign like that since he is a Navy pilot, but he was like... eh.. that's work. ptshh.. whatevs.. :P )

    Or Central Meadows (also county owned)- $250.00 Deposit and $250.00 Rental Fee

    FI and I totally weren't even thinking about it and then his parents were like, "What about so and so's hanger?" I mentioned it to my planner and that was it. I had to be talked into it for a few weeks, but I'm soo happy with the choice. It's a beautiful space. I just didn't think of it that way to begin with. :)

    leifer is right down the street from my wedding planner/aunt's house. :) Great outdoor location for those garden-style brides. Also easy for guests to find since it's right off the freeway.

    We found a darling bed & breakfast organic farm on Bainbridge Island. Holy Lane Gardens. The owner is super hospitable and talented! Paying a smidge over $1,500 for day of full-use of all 9 acres including a MIL cottage for bridal suite, a kitchenette rental ensuite for the gents to make ready in, plus use of all tables, chairs, tents, and some decor she has on hand. Oh! And a darling rustic barn just in case of rainy weather. We also will use the additional suites for overnighting - we will mini-moon in the MIL cottage and have special guests from out of state that will stay in the smaller one.

    Kitsap Memorial State Park in Poulsbo :)

    $1,300 for the Log Hall, outdoor pavilion and "caterer's kitchen" area for the entire day from 10am-10pm. Fit perfect for our budget and the rustic feel we're aiming for. Plus we're finding some AMAZING vendors out on the peninsula, so happy with everyone we're working with out there!

    We are getting married at The Majestic in Bellingham in March 2012. Beautiful indoor venue w/wood flooring, high ceilings, and plenty of space. Our biggest requirements were size (it seats 350 @ tables), and being able to bring in our own caterer (they have a nice little prep kitchen too). It's 1200 for all day (10am - midnight) and that includes their tables and chairs, a baby grand piano, use of their sound system, etc. We're so excited for our big day!

    We are getting married at the Antheia Ballroom in Snohomish in April (6 months from today!).  It's very vintage-y, it was built in the 1920's, and used to be a church.  Hardwood floors, big windows, super-awesome chandeliers, a bitchin' bridal suite, a grooms suite, it's perfect!  $1700 for 8 hours, we're using it for our ceremony and reception.  Their max capacity is only 120 guests though, so if you're looking for a venue to accomodate lots and lots peeps, this isn't really it.  Since we're expecting a turnout of about 80-100 people, this is perfect for us (and, it's only 10 minutes from home so planning is really easy!)

    We are getting married at the Edmonds Senior center. It isn't the most beautiful building but the veiw is amazing! It is reasonably priced and the people who work there will work with you on everything. Plus there is full kitchen included in the rental so you can do your own cooking.

    FI and I booked at Ray's Boathouse.  It's a beautiful view and the food (at the restaurant at least) was fabulous.  They've been great to work with so far.  We are just using them for the reception, so I don't know much about any ceremony details.  It was an $825 room charge for 5 hours of reception time.
