Thank you Kione and Brent!

"My partner and I were looking for an outdoor wedding venue that captured the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest without leaning into the farmhouse aesthetic. Gray Bridge Venue was perfect from the moment we first saw it on a virtual tour, and then even better when we finally visited in person! Matt & Stacy are so kind and the ultimate wedding pros - they have a plan for every contingency and their recommended vendor list really helped streamline the planning process. The venue itself is beautifully designed; it has an organic elegance of its own that requires very little in terms of decor. We couldn't be happier that Gray Bridge will always be part of our love story!"

Wedding Wednesday: Natalie & Forrest

This was the most special wedding we have gotten to celebrate! OUR kids got married last year! What a magical day it was as we celebrated the union of two beautiful souls, Natalie and Forrest, at Gray Bridge!

Natalie was simply breathtaking in her garden-fairy-princess dress, radiating love and happiness as she walked down the aisle. It was a joy to see her mom's skilled hands weaving magic into her hair, alongside her sisters and childhood friend, forming the most supportive and loving wedding party.

Forrest stood tall and proud, surrounded by his brothers and two friends from middle school, a testament to the lifelong bonds he holds dear. Together, our families were united in love and laughter as we danced the night away, creating memories to cherish forever.

Cheers to the newlyweds and the beginning of a beautiful journey together!

Wedding Wednesday: Enina and Connor

Love was in the air on Enina and Connor's wedding day as every little detail was flawlessly executed. From the breathtaking decor to the heartfelt vows, their special day was truly a masterpiece. This was a blissful celebration perfectly planned from start to finish! The catering, coordination, DJ, florals, photography, HMUA, dessert, and menswear were all on point, making Enina and Connor's wedding day absolutely magical. Join us in reliving the magic and wishing this beautiful couple a lifetime of happiness together! 💍🌟

From mouthwatering layers of flaky goodness to a heavenly blend of honey and nuts, this baklava cake was a labor of love. Enina's new mother-in-law, Barb, taught her how to make her baklava and they spared no effort in crafting the perfect treat for themselves and their guests.

Love knows no bounds and this wedding was a heartwarming reminder that the world is truly a better place when two incredible souls become one

🌸🎉 Congratulations to the happy couple! 💕🥂

Thank you, Kelly and Phil, for the 10 million stars!!

"The best wedding venue and experience that you will get! I researched almost every venue in Washington State and kept coming back to the Gray Bridge. The venue is beautiful and we were blown away with the customer service from Stacy and Matt. They were so welcoming and helpful considering this was a destination wedding for us! I could not imagine working with anyone else for our wedding day. I wish there were 10000000 stars to give to this venue. Stacy and Matt, THANK YOU!"

Five stars from Sarah and Santi!
"My sister found Gray Bridge as a possible wedding venue for us, and even before we took a tour, we were very interested. After meeting Matt and Stacy and seeing the venue in person, we were 1000% sure that was our venue and we booked our date that day. The venue is not only absolutely beautiful, but really well thought out. From the getting ready areas, cocktail hour space, ceremony seating, reception area, and the dance floor, it all flows perfectly and each space feels distinct and designed for that purpose. There are also a ton of little bonus areas that are great for kids or people who just want to step away for a minute. The venue already has a ton of stuff to borrow from the something borrowed closet, so you don’t have to worry about things like table numbers, chairs, cake cutting knives, candy jars, etc, which made planning way easier. And since the venue is outdoors and gorgeous, we really didn’t need to get many flowers or other decorations. Overall, Matt and Stacy couldn’t have made the planning any easier, they’re pros and they know what works and what doesn’t. Their vendor list is fantastic and we used quite a few they suggested. We had so many compliments on this venue, it feels outdoorsy, intimate, and fun without feeling formal and stuffy. We cannot recommend this venue enough, our wedding was exactly what we wanted, in large part due to Gray Bridge!" ~Sarah

Hey everyone! Let's talk about something super important: taking time for you and your fiance while you're knee-deep in wedding planning madness. 🌟 Planning a wedding is a whirlwind of excitement, but it can also be incredibly stressful and overwhelming at times. With all the decisions to make, vendors to coordinate, and details to iron out, it's easy to get caught up in the chaos and forget to prioritize yourselves and your relationship.

But here's the thing: amidst all the hustle and bustle, it's crucial to carve out moments of calm and connection with your partner. After all, this journey is about the two of you coming together to celebrate your love and commitment to each other. So, how do you make sure you're staying grounded and connected during this hectic time?

First and foremost, schedule regular date nights or "wedding-free" evenings where you can simply enjoy each other's company without talking about seating charts or flower arrangements. Whether it's a romantic dinner at your favorite restaurant, a cozy movie night at home, or a leisurely stroll through the park, make time to reconnect and remind yourselves why you're getting married in the first place.

Additionally, don't hesitate to delegate tasks and ask for help from friends and family members. You don't have to tackle everything on your own, and involving your loved ones in the planning process can be a great way to bond and share special moments together.

Remember to prioritize self-care as well. Wedding planning can be mentally and emotionally draining, so make sure you're taking care of yourselves physically and mentally. Whether it's practicing yoga, going for a run, or simply taking a long bubble bath, find activities that help you relax and recharge.

Lastly, keep perspective and don't sweat the small stuff. At the end of the day, what truly matters is the love you share and the commitment you're making to each other. So, take a step back, breathe, and remember that the most important thing is that you're marrying the person you love.

Wedding planning can be a rollercoaster ride, but by prioritizing time for yourselves and each other, you'll navigate it with grace and come out stronger and more connected on the other side. Cheers to love, laughter, and happily ever after! 💖

Scamper's Saturday!

Hey everyone! If you haven't met him yet, let me introduce you to the real star of the show—our beloved orange cat, Scampers! 🐾 Scampers has been a part of our lives since way back in 2011, and let me tell you, he's made quite the impression ever since.

Scampers was at our very first wedding, where he decided to photobomb our pictures like a pro. The photographer kindly asked us to move him out of the shot, but little did we know that Scampers was destined for the limelight. Fast forward six years later, and he still hasn't missed a chance to steal the spotlight and get his portrait taken.

Scampers is more than just a cat—he's a diva in his own right, with a personality as big as his heart. He's a lover through and through, always ready to curl up in your lap for some cuddles and purrs. And let's not forget about his impeccable timing—he always manages to make an appearance whenever there's a camera around, striking poses like a seasoned model.

But beyond his photogenic looks and charming personality, Scampers is also a loyal companion who brings so much joy and laughter into our lives. Whether he's lounging in the sun, chasing after toy mice, or simply demanding attention with his adorable meows, he's a constant source of happiness and love.

So here's to our one-of-a-kind orange cat, Scampers—the diva, the lover, and the forever photobomber. We wouldn't have it any other way. 🧡🐱

Testimonial!

"Gray Bridge was our dream venue. We were initially drawn to the very "PNW" vibes surrounded by trees and nature as we are both from the area and wanted an outdoor wedding. When we left after our initial tour we both just looked to each other and knew it was the place for us to get married. Not only is the venue GORGEOUS, but (the venue staff) were so friendly, supportive, smart, and gave us all the confidence in the world that the day could run smoothly. They had great communication in answering our questions and coordinating to vendors, and explained things in a way that we knew they know what they're doing. So much thought is put into the layout of the venue to create a flow for the day and the guest (and couple) experience. Our guests number one comment to us was just how beautiful and perfect the venue was. I would highly recommend Gray Bridge Venue to anyone!!" ~April & Rob *****

How Gray Bridge came into being

Imagine your wedding at the edge of a pond--with a fountain and gray bridge behind you. The forest rises up behind your guests while the Cascade foothills rise up behind you and your partner. You are about to officially begin your lives together in the most beautiful, sophisticated, private, and uniquely-you location you can imagine. Welcome to Gray Bridge.

We want to be a part of the story of your lives together. A little bit of story-book fantasy, a bit of glamour, a lot of nature, and a focus and reflection of you and how special this day is--that is what we are at Gray Bridge. Our venue is unique--like you are--and we strive to Gray Bridge into a space that is unlike any other where your unique specialness and the importance of your commitment together is reflected in a space that is also special and important. Come celebrate with us!

Castle Island

In the late 70’s, the Baldridge family purchased 40 acres in Sultan and started building their dream house. The site was pristine: private, full of natural beauty, an ideal setting to raise a family and build a dream. Dick Baldridge was a visionary in how he created his homesite. He located the house so that it is essentially surrounded by a moat. Behind the house is the toe of a hill with the dense forest rising high above, a wetland and stream at the base of the hill lines the rear of the house with water. In front of the homesite, he carved out ponds from some existing depressions, he built a driveway between the ponds and between the ponds and the wetland an island was made. Architect Michael Gemza designed the house for Dick, Lola and their girls Pam and Sue.

Dick Baldridge had a vision and heavy equipment. After he carved out the ponds, he tapped a natural spring about 250 feet up the forested hillside. He built a weir, buried a culvert and collected water bubbling out of the mountainside and sent it into the west pond. The fountain in the west pond is coming from that culvert about 250’ up the hill. The drop pushes the water through the pipe at a continuous rate year round. The water in the ponds is crystal clear because it is continually being circulated from the spring into the west pond, overflows into the east pond, and then into the wetland behind the house. The ponds are about 55 degrees and full of breeding trout, otter, muskrat, seasonal waterfowl, and feeding birds.

We’ve named locations on the property for their original design. The “pool deck” had a huge, deep, and frog-filled swimming pool when we bought the property. The paved area under the tent is “the helipad” where, according to the real estate listing, the property is only 15 minutes by helicopter to Seattle! The area above the amphitheater is the “putting green”. The Baldridge property had a 3 hole golf course where our horse pastures are now located.

We bought the property, now 15 acres, in 2017. It had been sold a few times since the original owner and had been neglected for a number of years. We gutted, cleaned, pruned, planted and painted. We built a barn, filled in the pool, repaired the ponds, patched the driveway, and fell in love with this place. We feel like caretakers of the most beautiful space in the world.

As a wedding venue, we get to share the uniqueness and beauty of our gorgeous setting with wedding couples as they begin their married life together! We want to share our space with others who love the mountain views, the sound of running water, the shade of the forest, and the magnificent architecture and backdrop that makes up the Gray Bridge Venue! Do you want to get married in a place that is sophisticated while full of natural beauty? Do you want a wedding venue that is unique and as special as you are? Are you looking to marry at a place that says “my wedding is important”? Gray Bridge is the place where those memories are made. Please join us!
