Perched on the southwest slope of Red Mountain in Benton City, Washington, Terra Blanca Winery & Estate Vineyard sits in one of the state's most celebrated wine-growing regions, officially recognized as its own American Viticulture Area in 2001. Owners Keith and ReNae Pilgrim began clearing the 300-acre property by hand in 1992, planted the estate vineyard the following year, and released their first estate-produced vintages in 1997. The winery's Tuscan-inspired stone building, completed in 2006, includes barrel caves built from repurposed cement cylinders from the LIGO project, along with a tasting room and a terrace overlooking the estate vineyard and the Yakima Valley below. The estate's Vineyard Grill serves wood-fired brick oven pizzas and chateau-inspired cuisine on a terrace with panoramic valley views. For private events, Terra Blanca offers exclusive use of more than 10,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor space, hosting receptions for up to 250 guests and seated dinners for up to 200. Event packages include a dedicated event staff, a professional meeting planner, house linens and centerpieces, tables and chairs, and personalized food and beverage menus prepared by Terra Blanca's executive chef, paired with the estate's Red Mountain wines. Weddings are also held amid the property's vineyards and gardens with an all-inclusive package.

Ray's Boathouse, a critically regarded restaurant on the water's edge, mirrors the clean lines and crisp corners of a classic Chris-Craft. Ray's Boathouse, one of Seattle's most iconic restaurants, elevates fresh Northwest seafood by offering elegantly crafted meals with accuracy. Everything we do revolves around water... From our vantage point atop Puget Sound, to our humble origins as a bait shop and boat rental, to our direct partnerships with fishermen who supply us with the freshest locally caught fish, plump oysters, and soft crab legs, we've come a long way. Ray's is a staple of Northwest cuisine and a symbol of quality. Bring your friends, family, and out-of-town visitors to Ray's Boathouse for a memorable dining experience, whether indoors or on our seasonal Boathouse patio. Our Café Fireside Room, located upstairs from Ray's Boathouse, is a terrific setting for your next group dining experience!

Wild Ginger Bellevue sits right on Bellevue Way NE, next door to the Bellevue Arts Museum and just across the street from Bellevue Square mall, in the Lincoln Square South stretch of downtown Bellevue. The restaurant moved into this address in 2017, a smaller footprint than its original Bellevue home at The Bravern, where it first opened in 2009 to mark parent restaurant Wild Ginger's 20th anniversary. Inside, SKB Architects designed the space to blend Asian influences with a more contemporary look, giving the room a casual but still dressed-up feel, with a main dining room, a bar, and private dining space set apart for events. The kitchen, led by Chef de Cuisine Milan Waduge, serves family-style dishes rooted in the cuisines of China and Southeast Asia, the same style Wild Ginger's founders picked up traveling through Malaysia, Burma, Thailand, Singapore, and Hong Kong back in the 1980s. The wine program has drawn recognition for how well it pairs with the menu, and bottles under $100 are half off on Sundays. Private dining and group meals are booked separately from the main dining room, so a party can be as small as an intimate dinner or as large as a bigger group reception.

Lawson Gardens is a 13-acre public garden in Pullman, Washington, centered on a terraced lawn that steps down toward a brick-edged reflecting pool and gazebo, framed by mature trees, flower beds, and brick pathways.

The gardens are booked for weddings and receptions in six-hour or eight-hour blocks, with the reflecting pool and gazebo serving as a ceremony backdrop and photography setting. Rental fees are $500 for a six-hour block and $750 for an eight-hour block; a Special Event Permit is required separately for receptions or larger gatherings.

Highlander Golf Course sits above the Columbia River in East Wenatchee, Washington, a short drive from Lake Chelan, Leavenworth, and the greater Wenatchee Valley. The course was reshaped with three canyon-carry holes cut into the cliffside above the river, along with a water feature, stonework bridge, and rows of trees lining the fairways. The golf course hosts tournaments, private group events, and corporate outings ranging from groups of twenty to corporate gatherings of 250 guests, as well as weddings and private celebrations. Its events team coordinates tournament formats, scheduling, scoring, and prizes, and many groups return to Highlander season after season.

Built in 1906 as a three-story cedar log hunting lodge, Mineral Lake Lodge sits on 3-1/2 acres along Mineral Lake, with 215 feet of private waterfront on what locals call one of the best trout fishing lakes in Washington State. The lodge's wrap-around veranda frames one of the most complete views of Mount Rainier in the Nisqually River Valley, and a private dock along the shoreline accommodates boats or an evening spent fishing. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1974, the lodge has passed through more than a century of uses — from a wilderness retreat for Seattle's early-1900s elite to a political and business retreat under the West Fork Logging Company — before opening as a bed-and-breakfast in 2004. Eight individually themed guest rooms can be booked separately or reserved together for a full lodge buyout, making the property a basecamp for weddings, family reunions, and retreats near Mount Rainier National Park. The lakeside grounds host outdoor wedding ceremonies with the mountain as a backdrop, followed by receptions in the lodge's Reception Hall, which opens onto a deck overlooking the lake and a two-acre meadow. Evenings often end at the lakeshore campfire ring, where the lodge supplies the wood and the makings for s'mores.

Warm Springs Inn & Winery traces its roots to 2006, when the Szmania family purchased a 20-acre farm and pear orchard along the Wenatchee River. Two years later they planted rows of Sangiovese, Syrah, and Merlot, and by 2012 had brought in their first harvest, with early vintages made under the guidance of winemaker John Patterson at Patterson Cellars in Woodinville. In 2013, the family expanded into hospitality, purchasing the historic 9,000-square-foot mansion on the property's 10 riverfront acres and reopening it as an inn in April 2014. Today, BCV wines are produced in small batches on-site in Wenatchee, from harvest through crush, fermentation, and bottling — eight wines in all, including Merlot, Syrah, Sangiovese, Cabernet Franc blends, and a Rubi Reserve Port, several of which have won medals at the North Central Washington Wine Awards. Set between Wenatchee and Leavenworth and surrounded by cherry orchards and old-growth trees, the inn offers six guest suites, a wine bar and tasting room overlooking the river, and grounds that host both intimate indoor weddings and riverfront outdoor celebrations for up to 250 guests. Chef and owner Ludger Szmania prepares breakfast for guests each morning.

Run by the Gilbert family, the winery describes itself as a neighborhood wine garden built around community, hosting everything from weddings to casual weekend visits.
