About

Green Gates is a unique five-acre wedding and events venue located on beautiful Flowing Lake in scenic Snohomish, Washington. Green Gates was once a modest equestrian estate. The original barn has been beautifully transformed into the bridal cottage, and the former covered riding arena in the large barn is now the ballroom reception area. The setting provides a romantic and serene experience with the perfect blend of rustic elegance. The attention to detail in the meticulously maintained gardens as well as the "salvaged and re-purposed" style in all the structures will leave guests awestruck. Stunning photo opportunities are seemingly endless. The wedding lawn has a sweeping view of the sparkling lake, lush greenery, and Cascade Mountains. The comfort provided by the spacious Bridal Cottage and the historic Groom's Cabin will make the day complete. Green Gates can accommodate up to 200 guests.

For those who desire the dramatic departure, how about being whisked away aboard a sea plane?!

Stop looking and BOOK NOW!

The second we walked into the venue when touring before our wedding we knew that we needed to book. The pictures online are beautiful, but you really need to see it yourself to understand what a phenomenal venue this is. Venue aside, the owners are incredible to work with. They work extremely hard to ensure your dream wedding comes to fruition. Every last detail turned out exactly how we had imagined it and there was little to no stress involved; you know that this venue will turn out perfect! Stop your wedding venue search now and BOOK green gates, it is the best decision you'll make along your wedding planning journey!

We had the most magical day at Green Gates!

Green Gates was the absolute perfect venue for our wedding! We loved it from our first visit – the rustic, elegant barn, beautiful view and outdoor areas, and especially the unique décor collected over the years. We also loved that Debbie took the time to share bits of the venue’s history and some of the stories behind the decor on our tour – it’s clear how much care has been invested. Leading up to our event, Debbie was quick to answer all of our questions and open to scheduling follow up visits when needed. We also really appreciated that the venue staff takes care of managing tables/chairs and parking, as well as the large collection of signage/table décor/etc (the pinterest closet!) that we were able to use. On the day of our event, Debbie and her staff went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly and it was exactly the setting we’d hoped for. I’m so so happy that we chose Green Gates!

The best wedding venue!

My Husband and I got married here on July 1st of 2023. The grounds were STUNNING this time of year with all of the gardens in full bloom and beautiful green grass lawn. This venue is the perfect location for a wedding or get together. Behind the wedding lawn is the perfect backdrop with the cascade mountains and the lake. Debbie and Kerri were so helpful and made our day go smoothly. They are prompt, helpful and thoughtful. They obviously take so much pride in their wedding venue and it's easy to tell they have done this before. They have amazing recommendations and a nice stock of items you can borrow on your special day, including yard games! We could not have asked for a better location for our perfect day. Thank you Kerri and Debbie!

Green Gates at Flowing Lake is by far our FAVORITE venue. The greenery that surrounds the handcrafted cabins and barn offer breathtaking opportunities for photographs. Looking out onto the water during the wedding ceremony is extremely powerful. The staff is beyond accommodating and kind and offers couples many different options for decor. It's a Pinterest paradise! Not to mention, who wouldn't want the option to formally exit their wedding in a seaplane? So cool!
