Simply WOW!

ALL I CAN SAY IS WOW!!! 😍 I truly don’t believe anything could have gone better on our wedding day! From the day we stepped into the venue property, I immediately knew that we had to have our wedding here! Pictures don’t do any justice on how beautiful this property is in person. The owners and Lindsay the daughter were amazing and helped along the way answer all the questions we had. I couldn’t recommend this venue more! Thank you for being apart of mine & my now HUSBANDS love story!

Blown away!!

I would give Cedar Springs 10 stars if I could. My now husband and I considered about 30 venues (!!!) before Cedar Springs, and we instantly knew Cedar Springs was right for us when we visited the space. The property is full of natural beauty that the staff tend closely. The staff’s passion for their business is reflected in the fact that they find new ways to improve the space each year. For example, this year they replaced the roof of the gazebo, installed sliding barn doors adjacent to the gazebo, had a mural painted, and constructed a new live-edge table intended for signing marriage certificates. I also had a wonderful experience working with both Betsy and Lindsey. They were friendly, professional, and accommodating throughout the entire wedding planning process. Lindsey is an exceptional communicator, usually responding to my emails within a matter of minutes. I visited the venue multiple times before our wedding, and Betsy stayed with us during each visit, answering all of our questions thoroughly. Sadly, it rained on our wedding day, but the staff was unphased by the weather, knowing exactly how to use the covered, available spaces to facilitate a lovely and intimate ceremony. I also appreciated that the venue has separate “get ready” rooms for both members of the couple, a rowboat for couples’ photos, and a fire pit for s’mores. Our venue was one of our favorite elements from our entire wedding—I HIGHLY recommend Cedar Springs. I hope I get to visit for a celebration again someday.

Thank you, Cedar Springs!

We got married at Cedar Springs in September, and it was so wonderful! After touring 11 different venues, we instantly knew that Cedar Springs was the one. The venue is absolutely gorgeous, and we loved being able to use our own vendors - it really let us personalize the celebration. Betsy and Lindsey are so great to work with. They were there to answer any questions I had leading up to our wedding and were always so friendly and helpful. Our guests thought the venue was beautiful, and they loved the secluded feel of the property. Look no further!

My perfect Wedding

I've been looking everywhere for that perfect venue, and I knew it was here the moment I saw it. Nature blooms here, with beautiful gardens, a large pond, streams, and so much greenery! It was my perfect fantasy wedding, proclaiming my love on an island, in the middle of the forest. I'm so happy I got married here!

Unforgettable

The venue was absolutely perfect! It was the first and only venue we toured and looked at — and we knew immediately that it was the one. The staff was very helpful and responsive through the entire wedding planning process. I would recommend booking this venue a year in advance because it does book up fast. We will always remember our special day here and the beauty of the venue.

Perfect Wedding Venue

Last weekend our son married the woman of her dreams at Cedar Springs. Our guests all commented on the magical feeling of this spectacular venue. From the wedding island, where the bride was able to cross a bridge to her waiting groom; to the gorgeous tent area, complete with chandeliers and the covered dance area with a beautiful fire place. Speaking of fire, there is a wonderful firepit where guests made s’mores; an adorable swing for taking pics and a large game area. A huge thank you to Betsy for making this day one that will never be forgotten!

Beautiful and Effortless

This venue is stunning. Absolutely stunning. I think they've raised their prices a little since 2018 but honestly they should have... I got it for an absolute steal at $3,000 for a 120 person wedding on a Friday. They set up their tables and chairs for you, they take down, they host awesome open houses, and almost no decoration was needed because the gardens and lawns are so stunning. My only wish was that the dressing rooms were larger- but I believe they plan on working on that in the winters so it might be ready now. BEAUTIFUL venue, INCREDIBLE price, and guests LOVED it. I got so many compliments and people thought we paid a fortune. If you're local, it's so worth it!

Beautiful venue, very accommodating

Beautiful venue. In the planning process, they were always quick to respond to questions and were very accomodating when we needed to see the venue a couple of times out of their normal hours since we live in another state. It all felt very relaxed, and yet so efficient and professional. Day of, they were fantastic and so helpful with anything we needed. Everybody loved our venue, and the set up was perfect!

Wonderful experience!! We booked this venue in August 2017 for our wedding at the beginning of September 2018. The number one comment we received on the day of the wedding and since was how beautiful the venue was. One guest referred to it as, "Kitsap's hidden gem!" On top of being beautiful and well kept grounds, Lindsey and Betsy were amazing to work with!! I was very anxious the month before and Lindsey was a savior! She was able to take the images I had in my head and make them a reality. She also helped me stay on track with planning and coordinated with the vendors. Both women went out of their way to help things go smoothly before and during the wedding. On the day of everything went off without a hitch and with Lindsey's help I was able to stay calm and really enjoy our day! I could not recommend Cedar Springs more.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
