  The Most Amazing Day!!

  My husband and I got married at Oakshire this past summer and it was everything we could have dreamed of and more. This venue is set apart and makes you feel like you are somewhere else with its southern elegance. There are also so many layout variations for each couple to choose from in terms of where you want to get married on the property making it special and individual for each couple.
  
  Now the venue was amazing but what made our day incredible was Cate and the event staff. Cate made us feel at ease from the start and helped make our vision come to life. She cares deeply about her space and couples, and it shows through the intentionality that she had with us and our coordinator. We are so thankful for Cate and her staff and could not imagine our day without them. Thank you so much Oakshire for making it the BEST day ever!
  
  Love,
  The Snipes

  Best Wedding Venue!

  We had our wedding at Oakshire at the end of July this year. We had to postpone an entire year with Covid, and Cate was extremely supportive and easygoing during the entire process from when we first visited until the day after the wedding was complete. She worked hand and hand with our wedding planner throughout the whole day to make sure things ran smooth and efficient, which was a very big help to all of us. Every request was accommodated, every question was answered quickly, and every aspect of the venue was in perfect shape. We even stayed on their rental properties and that are also on the estate, which was very convenient to be so close. They were also in perfect shape and an affordable rate too. We could not have asked for a nicer venue or a nicer host, and I would recommend Oakshire to anyone who was looking to have a wedding!

  A Most Excellent Wedding Venue

  Thank you Oakshire Estates for the most amazingly wonderful wedding possible! The grounds are immaculate, open sky, water and woods. So many options. We chose the pond as our backdrop and open lawn for the reception. The room for bridal party is huge with privacy and a courtyard outside to relax in. The grooms room is to die for amazing living quarters with a private sauna. They even have Air. BnB homes on the property for our guests! They were so great with communication and letting us walk the property with vendors. We appreciated the help in picking the best location on property-super flexible and so willing to help make our dreams come true. I needed to work on art projects for the wedding and they gave me a space to do that. They were very helpful in what vendors to use and they gave them space to drop off, set up and work. Their hired help was very kind and positive which I really appreciate. Even when things went wrong on my end they were very gracious. I highly highly recommend Oakshire Estates you will be blessed!

  Excellent on all accounts

  This was such an amazing and magical experience! I love you guys and the property was outstanding! You are truly top notch! We are constantly getting praises from our friends and family that attended at how beautiful everything was. The sunset over the lawn was breath taking and being married under the stars near the pond was magical. Taking of in an airplane was an exceptional getaway to boot! My husband and I were so blessed by this venue and the experience we had with it and on it!

  Fairybook, Storytale, Princess Wedding

  Absolutely amazing venue, hosts and experience. Couldn't be happier with our decision to select Oakshire Estate for this once in a lifetime event.
  
  When family and friends heard we were having our daughter's wedding in Yakima, we certainly got a few confused looks, as the kids live in Bellingham and our families are primarily in Spokane and the greater Puget Sound area. However, with most 2020 weddings being postponed to 2021 due to COVID, our search parameters needed to expand a bit.
  
  When we first discovered Oakshire Estate, we were initially concerned with distance and cost. After coming to the realization that a centralized location actually made a lot of sense, and that our loved ones would make it work regardless, we reached out and contacted Cate.
  
  Now, Oakshire is not cheap, and if you’re looking to save a few bucks on the venue, then you probably aren’t reading this review. But if you are looking for the perfect storybook/fantasy wedding, it is important to realize is that, in this case, you absolutely get what you pay for.
  
  Other than the estate being literally jaw-dropping the first time you see it, Cate is one of those people who honestly cares about her customers and will bend over backwards to ensure that everything is absolutely perfect. She even personally jumped in the golf cart to go pick up the Grandmas from one of the several Airbnb’s, also on the property, when they were ready for pictures.
  
  When you consider that Oakshire provides a ton of amenities (tables, chairs, bar, lighting, décor, restroom facilities, full staff, trash handling, parking attendants/shuttle, etc.) that normally cost extra, …and you have your choice of 7 or 8 different areas of this massive estate for ceremony and festivities, plus on-site lodging options, it really is tough to beat.

  A dream come true

  This venue was everything a little girl could only imagine on her wedding day growing up. Everything about our day and the days leading up to it were amazing. Cate, Russ, and the whole oakshire team are beyond amazing. They truly made the experience dreamy, not only that but they make you feel like you are part of their family. Oakshire and the family will always hold a special place in our hearts!

  Wonderful staff & breathtaking venue!

  Oakshire Estate and Airfield was such a marvelous venue for my wife and I to hold our small, intimate wedding ceremony and to celebrate our union in marriage. Everywhere you turn you will find beauty at this venue. Whether for photos, the ceremony or the reception, the venue is gorgeous. Throughout the property, there are multiple elegant areas that would meet varying wedding or event styles. Furthermore, the Oakshire staff was also kind and accommodating for the vision we had and helped our day run smoothly and stress free. They were great to work with and the chairs and tables they have to offer also made for a gorgeous ceremony and reception.
  We are beyond thankful that we had the privilege to spend our special day at Oakshire Estate and Airfield. We would recommend this venue to anyone!

  We were so amazed at how you, your family and crew were so easy going and just rolled with all the COVID punches. Downsizing your wedding, social distancing, masks and even the threat of rain.... nothing could have ruined your beautiful day!

  The perfect wedding venue by all measures!

  I was married at Oakshire Estates 5 years ago. Everything about getting married there was unbelievably perfect. Don’t look any further!

  Thank you so much for your kind words, James! Your brides “father-daughter” dance was sooooo special how your groomsmen stepped in, what gentlemen - I will never forget it! It’s a legacy of bravery and knighthood one does not see every day! We absolutely loved getting to know you both better. Thank you for your service to our country!

  They were beyond helpful, kind, and willing to work with our needs.

  My husband and I used this venue for our dream wedding, 6 years ago this June. They were so kind, and the grounds are GORGEOUS. Plenty of beautiful trees, long driveway, parking spaces, and area to fulfill your childhood dreams, while being naturally beautiful enough to not require any added decor. If you want to feel like you're getting married in a fairy-tale, this is your place!

  We had an amazing experience with Oakshire Estate!

  We absolutely LOVED working with Oakshire Estate & Airfield and hosting our wedding at their gorgeous venue! We had about 450 guests and there was plenty of space for everyone. It has been 6 years since our wedding and we still have friends remind us how amazing our wedding was. We couldn't agree more and we have Oaksheire Estate and Airfield to thank along with our incredible family and friends! 10/10 would recommend this beautiful venue!

  One of a kind venue!!!!

  We had an incredible wedding at Oakshire Estate in 2011. We had between 200-250 people at our wedding and everyone still talks about how amazing the venue and overall experience was. The grounds are stunning and there are numerous areas on the property that are ideal for a ceremony and reception, so you get to customize your experience based on the look you are going for which is a huge bonus. I can’t say enough about the hosts—they are so genuine, kind and accommodating! If you are looking for a spectacular backdrop for your special day, I highly recommend this venue for breathtaking pictures and an even better experience. Please see the accompanying pictures to get an idea for how magical this place is. Thank you for priceless memories, Oakshire Estate!
