Ascend didn't miss a beat, and nothing was missed.

Ascend didnt miss a beat, and absolutely nothing was missed. We had booked about 8 months in advance for a Reception Dinner and every step of the way their team (and especially our dining coordinator!) was on top of things with all the little details covered. Night-of went incredibly smoothly, and all of our guests were extremely happy with their service, their food, the general vibe, and everything else.

For anybody else needing a medium-sized space for an intimate gathering, I would 100% recommend!

Beautiful Venue & Flexible & Responsive Team

We held our wedding at Ascend and had an incredible experience. The views were stunning, the food was excellent, and the space created the perfect atmosphere.

The planning and coordination team was responsive and professional throughout the process. Our guests especially loved the food and ambiance/views, which was perfect for a wedding of our size (~70).

There were a couple of small hiccups on the day (food service ran a little late), but the staff handled it well, and we were happy with how everything turned out. They even followed up and addressed our concerns after the event, which we really appreciated.

Sept Wedding for 50 guest

The staff at Ascend were amazing to work with! From the time of booking until the end of the wedding reception, it was always easy and professional to collaborate with them. We shuffled, on various times, the floor plan and seating arrangements but the staff was always very accommodating and provided useful insights. On the day of the wedding - everyone made the night so special. Our guests could not stop complementing about the view, food and drinks!

Amazing venue for an unforgettable event!

We couldn't be happier by choosing Ascend for our wedding ceremony and celebration.
They help you manage a lot of possible challenges that a wedding represents. The location, food, attention to detail and view are just amazing!

Our event coordinator Jordyn is a delight to work and connect with. She is so understanding, proactive, caring and efficient. She made this process easier for me, especially because I don't have a family here or nobody to help me to plan . As well as the rest of the staff, is really friendly and professional during the event

Dream Intimate Wedding

As a planner, I have the opportunity to work in many different venues. I recently did a intimate wedding ceremony and reception at Ascend and it was beyond magical. From the planning process to the execution - I can't recommend the Ascend Team enough. They have incredible event space and I look forward to referring them and designing alot more incredible events here. Thank you especially to Jordyn, Alysha and the execution team for helping put together a lovely event for my client.

Choose Ascend and you will never regret!

From the beginning, our event manager always responded to our message quickly, which helped us to discuss the arrangement for the event very efficiently. Throughout the whole process, we are really impressed by the beautiful scene, organized decorations and outstanding service. Also thanks so much for fixing our wedding cake as soon as possible when it falls off totally. Enjoying the fantastic evening, my husband and I feel like this is the best choice we've ever made to choose Ascend to be our wedding reception venue!

Also my guests feel the food is so great and we definitely will come to visit again for another fining dining experience in a small group then!

Thanks so much Ascend and hope the whole private event team all the best!

Everything We Could Have Asked For In A Wedding

Ascend was the perfect place to have the small, intimate type of wedding we desired! We wanted to have quality over quantity with our wedding day, and that is exactly what Ascend offered. They were incredibly responsive and communicative throughout the whole process, always professional, receptive to our input and hopes for our wedding, and provided great suggestions in response to make our wedding exactly how we wanted it. They also accommodated last minute changes we requested with graciousness and ease. On our wedding day the service was BEYOND amazing, food and drinks were spectacular. We had countless guests tell us how much fun they had, raving about the views, the service, food and drinks. I can't thank the entire team at Ascend enough for how much effort and work they put in to make our wedding day so unforgettable. Truly a 10/10 experience.

Wonderful 50th Anniversary celebration!

My siblings and I planned an intimate family celebration for our parents 50th wedding anniversary at Ascend! Our families flew in from Arizona & California and rendezvous’ed with my sibling’s family living in Bellevue. Alysha was a joy to work with as I planned out the details all remotely. She was professional, very responsive and provided guidance as I was navigating the menu items, timing of the event, etc. Having never seen the space (I live in AZ), Alysha provided photos and venue details so I could best plan out the celebration in one of their banquet rooms with a beautiful view of the city. She helped to recommend local florists and party decor vendors (gorgeous balloon arch) who delivered all the items prior to our arrival. In addition to the restaurant desserts, I also ordered a cake and personalized cookies from a local bakery, delivered to the restaurant without a hitch. The food from Ascend was AMAZING. Delicious and the presentation was top-notch! My parents were glowing through the evening. It was just really amazing to see each other again after 1.5 years separation due to Covid. 💕💕 We all had young kids so it was great to have a private room where the kids could just roam around an play with each other, without having to worry about disturbing other restaurant guests. I highly recommend Ascend if you’re looking for a venue with delicious food and amazing views!

Rolling with the punches

We had everything set to go for our wedding, but then omicron hit, and a lot of our plans had to adapt, the team at Ascend were very responsive with the constant head count changes, and changes to what we needed, and they helped us get our event across the finish line.

The team answered all our questions and were able to get everything we needed to make our wedding a success.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
