About

The Alderbrook Resort & Spa is a hotel with a ballroom for couples’ weddings in the greater Seattle, Washington area. Couples can marry in a classic indoor space, on a lawn overlooking the water, or during a voyage on a private yacht. This venue can be found on the Hood Canal, 40 minutes from Olympia, Washington and roughly two hours outside of Seattle.

Facilities and Capacity
Couples can invite up to 200 guests to their wedding at the Alderbrook Resort & Spa. This hotel has its own beach area, so couples can have a waterfront ceremony on the Hood Canal. The chairs can be set up in the grass of the lawn overlooking this beach and canal for cleanliness and convenience. A long dock stretches into the water in the background as the sun glints off the tiniest waves. Hazy mountains rise up in the distance. For a better view, couples can take a private yacht ride on the canal for their wedding. They can also marry in a tented venue space or in the ballroom. Couples can host their wedding reception outside when the weather is right with an open-air tent as their shelter. The paved space beneath the tent is comfortable for any type of shoes guests may be wearing. This tent even has a light fixture hanging down from the center for a romantic glow as the sun goes down. Couples can also choose to have their reception inside with windows overlooking the water.

Services Offered
This venue welcomes couples for any wedding event, including bridal showers, ceremonies, engagement parties and receptions. The Alderbrook Resort & Spa provides arches, chairs, a dance floor, furniture and tables for a couple’s wedding event. Other services at this classy venue include:

  • Accommodations
  • Bridal suite
  • Cake
  • Cleanup
  • Event rentals
  • Parking
  • Setup
  • Valet


Accommodation
This resort offers a variety of contemporary and comfortable guest rooms. These luxurious accommodations are more than convenient, allowing guests to pamper themselves in the spa or take a dip in the saltwater pool. Many rooms feature balcony or patio spaces with garden, creek or canal views. There are also private cottages where couples and guests can choose to stay on the night of the wedding. With a traditional Pacific Northwestern appearance, this resort is the perfect getaway for a wedding weekend.

Amazing Venue!!

Incredible venue!! The staff are incredible — welcoming, professional, and thoughtful. The service is impeccable, the food is OUTSTANDING, and all the activities are amazing. All our guests have raved about their experience over the weekend. We cannot recommend this venue enough!!

Our wedding was perfect, nothing went wrong (and we mean it - everything at the venue was flawless!)

We got married here in August of 2019 and were fortunate to not only have the greatest day (weekend) of our lives, but also to enjoy the entire journey of planning our wedding alongside the phenomenal staff and people at Alderbrook Resort. Our wedding was perfect, nothing went wrong (and we mean it - everything at the venue was flawless!) Alderbrook’s staff helped us create an unforgettable weekend that felt true to us, and also worked along the way to accommodate the blending of two cultures (at times, with over-the-top asks and intense family members - shoutout to the chef!). Alderbrook knocked our sock’s off (and everyone’s) with service, food, accommodations, wedding planning, etc. They went all out with helping us create an amazing wedding that we’re forever thankful for, from making the decision on the venue to the day of coordination, they truly take care of you. The venue is beautiful and is a place we’ll forever come back to. We also were spoiled to experience two different venues for our weekend - if you can swing a trip on the Lady Alderbrook and dinner at the Hood Canal Marina for rehearsal, it’s something that will rival your wedding day at the resort - truly a great experience! If you’re considering a wedding (or even just a stay), Alderbrook is an amazing place. (Not to mention thinking about a buy-out for your wedding - if you’re considering a wedding at Alderbrook where the venue is solely open to you and your guests - just do it - the resort really will create something magical you’ll never forget.) Thank you to the entire team at Alderbrook Resort & Spa! #LadyAlderbrook #HoodCanalMarinaRehearsal #WeLoveLivBourne

What a beautiful location for a wedding! We had our ceremony and reception outside and it was perfect. Communication before the wedding day and during was easy. The staff there knows what they are doing and it shows, great customer service!

Our friends and family are still talking about the amazing resort, delicious food, and the exceptional service they received from Alderbrook employees throughout the weekend. From the Friday night rehearsal dinner to the s’mores camp fire, we couldn’t have been more pleased. Everything was beautiful!

What an amazing experience we had over the course of the weekend we got married at Alderbrook! Working with Amy was so easy and she accommodated all of our requests. The entire staff at the resort treated us like VIP - we couldn't have chosen a better place for our big day!!! We will be coming back every anniversary - love how beautiful this place is :)

I worked with Amy from Alderbrook Resort for my ceremony and reception and she was great to work with. Also extremely helpful and responsive to my (tons) of emails. She was also so information and helpful with any questions I asked which was so important since I was planning the wedding from another state. Her and the Alderbrook staff helped my entire wedding day go off without a single issue. The staff was so amazing and accommodating the entire weekend - they did whatever was needed to make me and my guests feel special and right at home. The ceremony was absolutely STUNNING overlooking the water with the mountains in the background - my guests could not stop gushing about how beautiful of a location it was. It was exactly what I was looking for which is really hard to find in Western Washing.

My only slight complaint was that the food was much smaller portions than I was expecting. We did the 'duet' meal of shrimp and filet with roasted potatoes. During the tasting they told us the portions were going to be exactly like they had served us, but at the actual wedding it seemed like much less food, which was a bit of a concern for some of the guests since they were drinking. We wanted to make sure everyone got enough food and I am not sure they did. However, the food tasted great - I just wanted more of it :)

Other than that Alderbrook did an amazing job and I would recommend they to ANYONE looking for a wedding venue.

From the moment we walked on the property of Alderbrook Resort and Spa, we knew we were going to get married there. And that was just four months into dating...we were on our way to a hike in the Olympics and stopped for breakfast.

As soon as we got engaged, securing our dream venue was a must. We met Amy Lugo at Alderbrook for our first meeting and she was pleasant and full of answers to all of our questions!

Our tasting was superb, and we were so confident in the experience our guests would enjoy and remember! We also had our rehearsal dinner on the cabin lawn the night before and were happy with the whole experience!

Amy and Alderbrook--Thank you for making a few moments in your professional lives, a lifetime memory for us! We highly recommend Alderbrook to any bride and groom who want beauty, service, hospitality, and peace on your wedding day!

We just got married here and it was AMAZING. Everyone at the resort goes above and beyond to make everything perfect and it was a wonderful, stress free, experience. The catering/banquet staff is beyond nice and helpful and it was such a pleasure to talk to them. I loved every part of the wedding and I can't imagine having it anywhere else. On top of the service, the resort is CRAZY beautiful and it is the perfect wedding location.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
