    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!

    BEST Wedding Venue!!

    We got married at Green Gates in June of 2023 and the venue was absolutely perfect!! From the beginning, Debbie and Kerry were so kind, professional, flexible, easy to communicate with and quick to jump in and help with any questions or needs that we had. They work so hard to keep the venue looking stunning and to make all their couples feel comfortable and at home at their venue. The venue itself is absolutely gorgeous. We got so many compliments on it from all of our guests and vendors. Both our photographer and videographer couldn't stop talking about how many perfect locations there were for photos/video and how photogenic the whole venue was. The property is spacious with beauty everywhere you look. They have a whole closet full of decor and extras that you can borrow for the day to decorate and make your visions come to life. On wedding day, Kerry and Debbie were around to help and answer any questions we (or our vendors) had. The venue has everything you could need for a beautiful, fun wedding that your guests will love. plus it's the best if you want absolutely stunning wedding photos. I really couldn't say enough good things about this venue and the amazing owners. If you're considering booking them for your wedding - do it! You will not regret it! It's the best decision we made for our wedding and we are beyond happy with how perfectly everything turned out!!

    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!

    Fantastic venue with amazing staff

    My daughter's wedding at Green Gates was wonderful and the owners/staff were a big part of that. They were very accommodating and supportive. The venue is beautiful with so many picturesque spots within the grounds from the lake views to indoor spaces to green grottos. I can't say enough about the owners and how helpful and thoughtful they are. For instance they asked where the brides grandparents would be sitting so they could position an outdoor heater near them. Visit them and you'll see.

    Beautiful Lakeside Wedding Venue!

    This snohomish wedding venue is a beautiful place for a lakeside wedding. The outdoor space is lovingly landscaped and every aspect of this property is well thought out. Great views, and a perfect semi-indoor space for a reception rain or shine! The venue owners were kind, helpful & offered top shelf service! The photo opportunities at this lakeside wedding venue are plentiful! I'm cant wait to come back and photograph another wedding!

    Spectacular!

    This venue is gorgeous! There is at least a dozen amazing spots for photos. The owners are so helpful, responsive, kind and made sure our day went off without a hitch. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone! Our friends and family are still talking about how gorgeous it was!

    Absolutely fantastic

    I would get married here a thousand times over. Everyone completed the venue and kept saying how beautiful it was. I really appreciated their “pay it forward” closet, communication, and the place is full of natural beauty. I didn’t really feel like I needed to bring any of my own decorations because it was already so beautiful!

    beautiful venue with amazing owners!

    This venue is a gem among the many barn-chic options in Snohomish. Green Gates is a gorgeous venue with good options to accommodate rain or shine. The owners have poured so much love and time into making the property beautiful. They also responded quickly to all our questions during the planning process and were kind and flexible with us throughout! The addition of water views and the personal touches created by the owners elevates this space above all the rest.

    Amazing Experience at Green Gates

    Wow! This venue is exceptional! It is beautiful overlooking Flowing Lake. It has many different areas, from a rose garden, to the barn for the reception, to the bar and cocktail area. There’s so many places for great pictures and the owners of the venue just make it that much better. They were kind, responsive, and easy to work with. They keep up the property so beautifully, constantly working on it to make it better and better. It was a dream having our wedding here!

    Perfect Venue!

    Green Gates was the perfect venue for our special day! Debbie was so helpful and treated us like family. I love the variety of spaces and photo ops this venue offered. Not only is the reception area cute enough that we barely had to buy decor, they also have a decor closet that had a wide variety of things to choose from. We loved that the venue was down the street from the Flowing Lake campground. Our bridal party spent the weekend at the campground, which was so much fun.

    Oh my gosh - what a hidden gem!

    The stars really aligned when we found this absolutely perfect venue for our wedding day. Green Gates is owned by a wonderful couple who have been hosting weddings for many years and this venue is clearly the product of so much love and care. It sits in a wooded area right on a small lake in Snohomish and every structure and piece of decor on the property has a story. The owners love to repurpose objects and have created a truly special environment. We feel privileged to be part of a long line of couples who have made priceless memories here. Kerry and Debby have great relationships with so many vendors in the area and were so easy to work with. They were also completely flexible when we needed to reschedule our wedding due to COVID. I truly can't think of anywhere else I would have wanted to have my wedding day and our guests were blown away by how beautiful everything was. Green Gates is one of a kind and anyone who is lucky enough to host their wedding here won't be disappointed!

    Gorgeous venue

    The best day of our lives was at Green Gates at Flowing Lake! We cannot thank Debbie & Kerry enough- our wedding was absolute perfection and I wish we could relive that day over and over. We fell in love with this venue not only because of the gorgeous landscape and uniqueness, but because of the owners. Debbie & Kerry are incredible and ensure that the venue grounds are up-kept, guests are happy and they were constantly checking in with us to make sure the day was everything we had hoped for and more.

    Best Decision!!!

    Having our wedding at Green Gates was the best decision that we made during this wedding process (besides saying "yes!" to my fiance of course). Couple of things that make Green Gates stand out from the rest:

    1) Kerry and Debbie, the owners of this venue - From the beginning, both of them were so kind, generous, and helpful. They take pride in their venue, as they should, because both of them work hard to make it as beautiful as it is. They were attentive to answering any questions (in person or email) and truly wanted to make it the best day.
    2) THE VENUE! - the pictures truly don't do it justice. PLEASE go visit to see it. Our photographer loved the space so much that he gave us 2 additional hours of coverage so he could capture the different photograph locations. Our guests kept saying how it was the best venue they've been to.
    3) The rental closet - Kerry & Debbie are incredibly generous hosts and allow access to use their decor and supplies. I'm talking vases, candles, easels, chalkboards, aisle decor, random decor you didn't even know you needed or wanted! This helped us save so much money.
    4) Convenience - the generous time you get at the venue helped put everything at ease. Everyone got ready at the venue, which allowed more time to hang out and relax. The bridal cottage and grooms cabin is so useful. Kerry & Debbie truly thought of everything!

    Our day was the best and Green Gates had so much to do with it. THANK YOU KERRY & DEBBIE!!

    Rustic and Romantic

    This was truly a dream venue for our wedding. From the moment we pulled up to view it we just knew it was a perfect fit and when our day finally came it did not disappoint. We hardly needed any decorations because the venue spoke for itself. Debbie & Kerry were SO wonderful to work with. Absolute perfection.

    Amazing Venue! Amazing Service!

    Debbie & Kerry with Green Gates at Flowing Lake are absolutely amazing! They are so responsive and supportive of your vision for your special day! Their love and passion for making the best wedding venue is clear in everything they do. They have curated Green Gates to be one of the most magical places I have seen. Each time my husband and I visited they had done something new to make the venue that much more perfect. I was worried I didn't have enough decorations for our wedding but Green Gates at Flowing Lake was sooooo beautiful that we truly didn't need much to make it our ideal wedding venue. We brought just a few personal items but the natural beauty really did the job. We were so thankful for Kerry and Debbie's timely responses to our emails. They gave us great vendor suggestions. We are so happy we got married at Green Gates and strongly suggest it for anyone looking for a venue.

    Debbie & Kerry For The Win

    As with most pandemic weddings, we had to postpone our June 2020 wedding to 2021. Debbie and Kerry were in contact and very helpful throughout the process of changing dates and keeping us on track. They preemptively kept us in the know about safety measures leading up to June 2021 and honestly, without their help and support in the months before and the day of, the wedding would not have been a success.
    The venue itself is beautiful near Flowing Lake. It was the first venue we saw and ended up falling in love with it. Even after looking at other venues, we know it had to be Green Gates. There were many fun little touches that made it stand out. Wide open grassy areas for lawn games, cute little bar right next to the reception space, comfortable bridal suite and a rustic grooms cabin. Picture opportunities galore, a cool shady spot for large group photos, covered reception space in case of rain, and the constant improvements Debbie and Kerry make. Apart from the venue Debbie had a sheet of other wedding vendor recommendations. We picked three vendors from that list and all were amazing.
    Our wedding was a blast, every guest told us about how amazing the venue was but really Debbie & Kerry (and team) were even better and no.1 reason any prospective couples should pick this place.

    Amazing!!!

    Kerry and Debbie were amazing to work with! They were quick to respond to emails and completely professional, and yet so down to earth! The price you are initially quoted, is the price you will pay when it’s all said and done…there are no hidden charges or fees. Not only are the owners wonderful people, but Green Gates is absolutely beautiful! You really have to see it in person! We walked away from that day feeling like we could not have possibly picked a better venue for our daughter’s wedding! According to her, it truly was the best day of her life, and Kerry and Debbie had a big part to play in making that possible!

    Amazing venue and experience

    The venue is gorgeous, with endless photo-op spots! Debbie and Kerry were exceptional! Professional, helpful, organized, responsive and very pleasant to work with. They went out of their way to help one of our guests who was wheel-chair bound and were available on the wedding day for anything we needed. There is a generous supply of items to decorate the venue, donated by past weddings, which supports the “pay it forward” spirit. We would 100% recommended this venue!

    Best experience I have had with a business

    Green Gates is definitely worth a five star review for many reasons. From organization to price and value, to beautiful scenery, this venue far exceeded the expectations I had for my wedding. The owners, Debbie and Kerry are truly one of a kind with a venue unlike any other. They were kind and upfront about everything. There was not a detail they kept hidden from me (unlike many of the other venues I looked at) and most importantly, there were never any hidden fees. The venue is absolutely gorgeous as well. Many of my guests at the wedding, and in conversation after the wedding would not stop commenting on how beautiful the venue is. It is obvious that a lot of work and love is put into this venue.

    Beautiful Venue!

    We had an amazing wedding day at Green Gates! The owners Kerry and Debbie were a joy to work with, and the grounds are absolutely stunning. They have a huge closet full of decorations to borrow, which saved us a ton of money. Our guests loved the venue because there are so many spaces to mingle and explore. The owners are very professional and made our lives very easy throughout the wedding planning process. I can’t say enough good things about this venue!

    Perfect place for a perfect day

    My wife and I fell in love with Green Gates the moment we arrived for our initial tour. When our wedding day finally came, we could not have asked for a more perfect place to share with our friends and family. The staff was incredibly, taking care of everything so we need not worry about a thing. The ceremony grounds are stunning, there's so much to explore, and the whole property is so charming that almost no additional decor is needed, other than little bits to put your own stamp on the day. We cannot recommend Green Gates enough!

    Excellent and Fantastic

    The service of the owners and the on-site wedding staff made this a wonderful experience. Every question was answered quickly and Debbie let us come back to the venue a few times before the wedding to make sure our plans were on track. She gave us ideas and listened to every desire, need and strived to make everything exactly the way the bride wanted.

    Beautiful Venue

    My husband and I recently got married at Green Gates at Flowing Lake and could not have been happier with our experience! Kerry and Debbie were wonderful to work with, and helped us to achieve or wedding vision. I emailed them several times throughout the planning process asking for suggestion for vendors, decor, and things that worked/did not work well in their space. They promptly replied with helpful comments each time! 60 days before the wedding, they provided us with a checklist of everything that we needed to do to make our day successful. On the day of, they tirelessly worked behind the scenes to make our day perfect. The space is absolutely GORGEOUS and our guests are still raving about what a wonderful time they had

    Amazing Venue!!

    My husband and I could not be happier with our decision to go with Green Gates as our wedding venue! The property is gorgeous! There are so many beautiful and unique nooks and crannies throughout, that are great for taking photos and escaping the heat if it’s a hot summer day like ours was. Debbie and Kerry have built everything themselves and you can tell by the care and attention to small detail how much love they put into building this venue. Not to mention, they are both incredibly sweet and kind! The first day Debbie came up and gave us a big hug and we already felt like family. I can not recommend Green Gates at Flowing Lake enough to anyone looking for the perfect wedding venue! All of our guests kept raving about it, and asking how in the world we found it. We would choose it again in a heartbeat! :)

    The perfect venue!

    Green Gates is really the perfect venue! We looked at probably around 10 venues and as soon as we stepped foot at Green Gates, we knew it was the one. Debbie and Kerry are SOOOOOO nice and accommodating and really went the extra mile to make sure our day was perfect, including letting us come out to the venue several times during the planning process. We would definitely recommend getting married at their beautiful property!

    Our experience with Debbie and Kerry at Green Gates was everything we could have hoped and more. The venue itself is gorgeous, and they work so hard to keep it looking it’s best. They were very responsive and friendly even though I emailed them with many questions. They are such kind people and even helped us out with things during the day of - for example, our caterer left the leftover food out (did not put in fridge) and they noticed and made sure it made it into the fridge so it wouldn’t go bad. I can’t say enough good things about the gorgeous venue and Debbie & Kerry. Would recommend without any reservations - if you’re lucky enough to find an open date, snag it! Thank you Debbie & Kerry

    Kerry and Debbie are absolutely wonderful! We quickly fell in love with their venue and after hearing from them that they built a lot of the buildings on site themselves and used reclaimed materials we knew we wanted to get married at Green Gates. Their service was great, they were quick to respond to our emails, and they were professional, polite, and flexible when we accidentally missed a payment date. All of that plus the gorgeous venue made for an amazing wedding! Thank you Kerry and Debbie!

    Green Gates was the perfect venue to celebrate our June wedding. Debbie and Kerry are easy to work with, professional and transparent when it comes to their policies. They responded promptly to emails and were available when we needed to visit the venue throughout the year. Everything ran smoothly the day of the wedding and we could not have asked for a more beautiful location. Debbie and Kerry take meticulous care of their property. You can truly see Kerry's passion and eye for quality craftsmanship as you explore each corner of the venue. I would recommend this venue to anyone. Thank you Kerry and Debbie for a fabulous and unforgettable day!

    Debbie and Kerry were so kind and helpful both during the planning process and on the day-of! We had to move everything inside because of rain (which I honestly loved), and they helped us move the ceremony setup and all. They are constantly looking for ways to make their venue even cooler, whether it’s their new bar space or the AWESOME chandeliers, etc. Thanks so much for making such a beautiful place!!!

    My husband and I recently got married at Green Gates and we could not have been happier with our choice of venue. Debbie and Kerry do an amazing job maintaining the venue, we got so many compliments on how great the venue looked. Debbie and Kerry are great to work with. My husband and I lived out of state for most of the planning process, but they were very accommodating and very responsive to all of our questions. Another huge plus of Green Gates is that they allow you to use their decorations free of charge, which saved us a lot of money. We highly recommend Green Gates at Flowing Lake!

    Green gates at flowing lake where do I begin. If you are looking for a wedding Venue that represents the beauty of the Pacific northwest, this is your place. A year ago we did the “Snohomish Wedding Tour” looking for the right venue for our kids. This was the last place we went to and knew almost immediately it was perfect. So inviting and Full of warmth and rustic charm. All the special & personal touches, like succulents planted in old firefighter boots...that was a big hook for us my husband is a firefighter we knew it was a sign. Nothing is over done and nothing is spared. The landscaping is meticulous & creatively well thought out. You will find numerous settings to capture your Photo moments. Because of how beautiful this venue is, it requires very little decor needed. Plus they are so generous to lend you more decor from their storage.
    The best part about this absolutely gorgeous venue, are the owners Kerry and Debbie. They feel like family the minute you meet them. There attentive and caring and do everything to make the wedding day goes smoothly. They’re a absolute pleasure to work with as well as their amazing staff.... honestly you’re a true blessing. Thank you Kerry and Debbie, Green gates was a dream come true for our kids, a beautiful memory.

    Mine and my husband's experience at Green Gates at Flowing Lake was absolutely amazing! Kerry and Debbie are so wonderful to work with and have done a beautiful job with their venue. The day of our wedding they teamed up so well with our family to get things set up, have everything running smoothly during the wedding, and getting everything take down at the end in record time. So so glad we choose Green Gates at Flowing Lake for our wedding. It was the best day of our lives!

    This venue has a mix of it all from rustic to modern and a lake to woods. The owners were so much fun to work with and all those extras that most venues charge you for such as using their free or, tables, chairs is all available to you ag no additinal charge! Most of it is donated from previous brides. It was a huge selling point for us! No nickel and diming and we loved that! This is a must see venue!

    Wow!! I don’t even know where to begin in saying how wonderful this venue is for a wedding. It is naturally gorgeous with the ceremony view for your guests being overlooking a lake with greenery all around. It is peaceful and beautiful. The owners, who are amazing to work with, have done so much to create a unique reception space in the ballroom. It is a renovated barn with exposed beams and chandeliers. They have included lighting that is very romantic and another thing you don’t have to worry about during wedding planning. They have working restrooms so you don’t have to rent additional portable restrooms like you would with a lot of outdoor spaces. The ballroom is indoor/outdoor and they are highly prepared for unexpected weather. The property flows very naturally and makes for a seamless experience for your guests. They recently put in a new bar area which goes perfectly with the other thoughtful landscaping and thematic feel of the venue. The cocktail area is gravel with well thought out wine barrels with marble tops for a chic feel in an outdoor space. The huge trees surrounding that area help beat the heat of a hot day and bring another layer to the feel of the space. Now, the best part are the owners themselves, Debbie and Kerry. They are clearly passionate and so caring about the venue and making sure their customers have a successful and fantastic wedding day. They are very easy to communicate with and get back to you quickly to any questions and requests to tour the venue again, if necessary, during your wedding planning journey. Their day of staff is also friendly and very helpful. I can’t say enough about both of them and their fantastic wedding venue. TEN STARS. Best decision we made to have our wedding at Green Gates at Flowing Lake.

    This wedding venue is AMAZING!!! I could go on and on about how great Kerry & Debbie are, they truly have created a beautiful oasis for the brides & grooms. They were present the entire day without being seen. They helped my coordinator with anything she needed and have a lot of great decor and small details you can use. They are constantly improving the grounds and it looks better and better every time you visit. You cant go wrong with this venue!

    My husband and I had the best experience working with Debbie and Kerry at Green Gates! From the very beginning they were accommodating and a pleasure to work with! They were patient with us whenever we wanted to visit the venue and plan out decorations (which was a lot), every time they greeted us with a hug and spent time catching up with us. They truly care about their couples on a level that is far above any vendor/customer relationship. Our wedding day was the most amazing day of our lives, and it would not have been that way without the help of Debbie and Kerry. Not only did they provide an absolutely gorgeous venue for us to get married at, but they were there all day for whatever we needed. They helped set up decorations, put out tables and chairs, and made sure all of our guest were having a great time. I could not be happier with our decision to choose Green Gates at Flowing Lake as our wedding venue, and would wholeheartedly recommend them to any couple looking for the best venue in all of Snohomish!

    Once my Daughter and her Fiance saw this venue and saw it was perfect for the rustic style that they wanted, we didn't look any further and booked it right away. The wedding was in September, 2015 and we couldn't have asked for a better venue for their special day. Kerry and Debbie were very accommodating and helpful to ensure the wedding and reception went smoothly. They are very professional and friendly. Whenever we had questions they were very responsive to provide answers or helpful suggestions. They have many items that they allow you to use and they are onsite before, during and after helping out. They work very hard to ensure their customers needs are met and you can tell they have their hearts in their business. Many of our friends and family commented on what a beautiful and very cool venue this is. All in all it was an awesome experience. We were very happy with how everything all turned out.

    Got married here late August and had an amazing experience! The owners were great with communication and answering questions/offering solutions up until the wedding day. They day of they worked hand in hand with my coordinator to make sure everything we needed and envisioned happened. The weather wasn't the best & we had to get a tent for the ceremony last minute, they reached out to other brides and grooms to see if they'd be interested in splitting costs, which was so appreciated. They also worked well with all vendors in organization and helping get everything set up when it did start raining. Such a great experience and not an expensive venue. I appreciated that they provide tables and chairs and were so helpful in planning our big day. The venue is absolutely beautiful with so many unique rustic touches to it and I loved the spacious bridal cottage. Parking attendants were on site and able to help accommodate all 200 of our guests

    I could not have asked for a better wedding venue. It is hands down one of the most beautiful venues around. Debbie and Kerry work really hard to improve their place all the time and it shows! They are so sweet, friendly, and accommodating. I made many visits there prior to the wedding, to show a friend, or to check out available props, think through design options, and they were so easy to match schedules with. I saved a lot of money with all of the precious props they had on hand as well as basic supplies. They also worked wonders handling the ups and downs that came with working through some of my other vendors and were very gracious through it all. I would highly recommend this place!

    Kerry and Debbie were amazing people to work with, they make you feel like family. I could not have asked for a better wedding venue. This venue truly made my dream wedding come true. Everything went perfect from the ceremony on the lawn with the lake in the background to the open air barn where we held the reception. They have plenty of room for guests to spread out. Overall this was a great experience, good pricing, you get the venue morning until 10:30, and it makes a great backdrop for photos. All guests were in awe of how beautiful it is. Debbie and Kerry have put a lot of time and work into how amazing it is. Thank you for the perfect day!

Reasonably priced, lots of views, greenery & picture heaven! Heart & soul is most definitely shown in this venue & it shows!!!

They are such a breath of fresh air to work with after dealing with some difficult wedding vendors. They make you feel special and are so excited for your day! We loved working with them and would recommend them to any couple! Thank you Debbie and Kerry for all you did for David and I! We appreciate you! Can't wait to come back to see what changes have been made to the venue in the years to come!

    Green Gates is the most beautiful venue with the most amazing owners! We found Green Gates online and I immediately fell in love. The setting and scenery are gorgeous, but the venue also provides a covered option for those unpredictable Pacific Northwest days. Everything from the lighting to the available props to the flexible space, which is perfect for customizing the event flow, was just as we wanted. The owners, Kerry and Debbie, are a joy to work with and are truly gracious hosts. They made sure that we had everything we needed and went above and beyond to make sure our wedding day was as perfect as we could have imagined. I would recommend Green Gates to anyone looking for a rustic but polished, outdoor venue!

    Green Gates was the perfect spot for our wedding, beautifully landscaped and decorated, it left every guest we had raving afterwards. The owners also blew us away with exceptional service, they worked long and hard the day of our wedding, staying on site to make sure everything ran smoothly and were there if we needed anything from them. It was like having extra coordinators! We loved our venue and would choose it again in a heartbeat!

    Green Gates is a beautiful venue! We've had so many compliments. The guests loved it!
    Upon our first meeting I felt like I had known Debbie and Kerry for a long time. They are wonderful to work with and responded promptly to our questions. Very accommodating!
    The bridal cottage had mirrors and couches and was perfect for getting ready. The groomsmen's cabin was very nice as well!
    On the day of the wedding I felt like Debbie and Kerry were friends of ours helping to make everything perfect. Never did I feel like this was just another wedding. They even gave our daughter and son-in-law a homemade gift. Debbie and Kerry are so thoughtful!
    Thank you for a perfect day!

    Not only are the grounds unbelievably beautiful at Green Gates but Kerry and Debbie are also incredible hosts! As the owners, Kerry and Debbie were extremely responsive and flexible to our questions and requests to come to the venue to do planning. They worked with us to make our day absolutely perfect both beforehand and the day of.

    Kerry is an incredible craftsman and is constantly making improvements to the venue: Just about every corner is beautifully put together and could make for a GREAT photo backdrop. (Our photos turned out amazing in large part to how beautiful the grounds are!)

    All of this comes at a great value as well. For all that Green Gates offers, every penny spent here was well worth it!

    Thanks Kerry and Debbie!

    Kerry and Debbie are FANTASTIC! The venue is FANTASTIC! They were so responsive and helpful in the planning process and the months leading up to the big day. I would email the owners with little questions I had and no matter how minor or major the detail, they made sure they responded right away. On the day of our wedding, they made us feel like we were the only wedding they've had all year with all their patience, kindness and support. The Bridal Cottage where the Bride and her ladies get ready is so comfy and gorgeous. The guys loved the Groom's cottage and it was awesome for pictures. Their venue is like a fairytale come true and we are constantly hearing from our guests how much they loved Green Gates. The setting and the items that Kerry and Debbie have collected for décor are so perfect and you would not need much else beyond linens, centerpieces, etc. The best thing about Green Gates is the flexibility. I have heard from so many friends who have horror stories dealing with their venue owners but with Kerry and Debbie, everything went so perfectly! We had a Vietnamese Tea Ceremony in the morning which required more flexibility and work but the venue helped out so much and everything went so smoothly. I am always telling people about Green Gates and how it is the perfect place for an event!

    I am so glad we decided to have our wedding at green gates. Debbie and Kerry were awesome! They were easy to get a hold of and always there for everything we needed. I planned our wedding from California and working with them was so easy. We received many compliments about how beautiful our wedding was and everyone loved the venue plus our pictures were BEAUTIFUL. Thanks again for making our wedding perfect.

    Green Gates is the PERFECT place to have a wedding and reception. It is such a beautiful & private setting, right on Flowing Lake in Snohomish. I love the classy & rustic combo of the venue. We held an outdoor wedding with the recpetion in the "ballroom/arena" and it was sooooo beautiful & romantic and all the guests loved it! I have told 100's of people about Green Gates and will continue to share our experience with people who are looking for a great venue.

    Green Gates at flowing lake went out of their way to make our day perfect. Our wedding was better than I could have ever imagined. The venue has so many beautiful places for pictures, we couldn't be happier with ours! Everything about Green Gates is elegant and beautiful. The bridal room is so gorgeous and comfy; the perfect place to get ready! While the groomsmen's cabin is so awesome and manly; perfect place for the guys to get ready. The grass lawn looking out over the lake, made for a perfect and very romantic ceremony. The reception hall was absolutely amazing, we loved everything about it. The lighting was so romantic in the evening; everything about it had our guests in awe of how beautiful it was. It was also perfect to hold a lot of people and have a great dancing floor! If you are looking for the perfect venue, you have found it with Green Gates!

    Green Gates was the perfect venue for our wedding! The owners Kerry and Debbie are really incredible. They have put a lot of work into the area to make it so gorgeous and were very helpful on the day of. We loved having our ceremony on the lawn facing the lake and the barn reception. Our guests were blown away by the natural beauty of the area. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect backdrop for our day!

    Will always be in love with this venue

    Love this venue so much it’s so beautiful we barely did anything to decorate and I will always be obsessed with this venues beauty. They are responsive to emails and great to work it. The clean up was smooth and easy and they did great at helping with changing from doing the ceremony on the lawn to inside as it decided to rain an hour before our ceremony was to start. They had a plan already in place incase it happened. They didn’t hover and make us feel like they were trying to micromanage to control the evening but let everyone have fun. Highly recommend this venue the price is worth it for everything you get.

    Beautiful venue with quintessential PNW vibes

    Green Gates is an absolutely incredible wedding venue. The venue features a wonderful combination of outdoor ceremony space with covered reception area on a LAKE with a quintessentially PNW vibe. I was nervous getting married in September in the PNW due to possibility of rain, but once I saw this venue I knew that rain or shine we would have a wonderful day, and despite the off and on rain, we did! Our top features also mentioned in other reviews: bridal cottage and groom's cabin offer wonderful places for getting ready, covered reception area with beautiful chandelier hanging from the roof and other rustic design elements, very cool bar/outdoor cocktail hour space with barrels for tables, so many wonderful outdoor features/spaces for taking photos, and tons of decor options available for use (including some beautiful white lanterns we used as table decor).

    We had our wedding here this summer and absolutely loved the venue! It was the perfect space for a scenic ceremony, a lovely reception and party! Debbie and Kerry invest a lot in the property to make it look as good as it does and they're very easy to work with.

    A couple things I wish I'd known: the venue doesn't allow sparklers, tinsel or candles so we had to find alternatives for decor / send off. Also, the venue doesn't have a full sized kitchen which made finding a caterer a bit more challenging - but I recommend Mosaic catering since they grill on site and are amazing!

    Green Gates at Flowing Lake is truly a hidden gem! My husband and I had been touring the Snohomish venues, and the moment we stepped onto this venue, we both knew it was something special. 

    Both Kerry and Debbie take great pride in the overall venue, and Kerry is constantly working to improve the grounds/space. For example: we booked in 2015, and by the time our wedding took place in 2017, Kerry had added the following: new pavers all around the venue, the entire back hallway + extra space (perfect photo-booth space!), new bathrooms, and more. The best part is that they are an all-inclusive venue, and allow you to use all their amazing, beautiful décor that they have (includes rustic chic items: wine barrels, ladders, in-house farm tables, signage, etc.), which is SO neat. We didn't stop hearing from all the guests: "wow, this place is absolutely beautiful.." Another wonderful thing? They are INCREDIBLY accommodating - they never said no when we asked if we could come visit the venue for planning for our special day, always meeting us with hellos and hugs, and making sure to catch up on our personal lives - on the day-of, they were SO helpful, actually helping our staff-team with pulling out tables, chairs, setting up, and making sure that the venue looked its absolute best. This venue is NOT one to miss.

    Kerry and Debbie, thank you for being the best hosts, the best venue, and making our special day truly one to remember. We are so lucky to have found your slice of heaven.. Thank you for sharing it with us! <3

    It was truly a gift to have our wedding at Green Gates, I would highly recommend this venue! The owners are some of the nicest people you could meet and very down to earth. They were extremely helpful to us, and they offer the use of so many amazing vintage props it would make any Pinterest girl swoon. We got so many comments and compliments on the beauty of our venue!

    Green Gates at Flowing Lake is a beautiful venue with vistas of the Cascade mountains, lake, grassy slopes, vineyards and stately evergreen trees. It has many picturesque settings offering an A-frame cabin, rustic barn, vineyard, grassy and treed areas both sun and shade. We can't wait to see the pictures of our daughter's wedding! One hundred ten guests were easily accommodated with plenty of parking, reception and dance floor space. We were very pleased with the caterers, DJ, flowers and get away car; all recommended vendors by Green Gates. The space is so well planned out by Kerry and Debbie that the whole wedding from set-up, to bridal party dressing, pictures, ceremony, cocktail, reception and departure flowed seamlessly and easily. We couldn't have imagined a more beautiful setting or one that appealed more to our daughter and son-in-law.

    Beautiful Venue but the owners were very controlling and were on site the whole day. They were very strict about ANY drinking prior to the ceremony and communication about cleanup at the end was very poor. I would recommend this venue for any "dry" weddings in the future.
