Breanna Eliason-Miller(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 03-12-2016 I got married at this venue on December 3, 2016. Most people get married at this venue during the summer but I would recommend this place for a winter wedding as well! We use half the room for the ceremony and quickly transformed both sides into an amazing space for our ceremony. The venue for a simple, beautiful look that can be decorated with just a few things to give it any theme you could imagine! We had a more rustic wedding but just by decorating the tables and entry area we had the perfect place! All of the staff from the venue, and Chambers Bay were amazing to work with. This price is amazing for what you are getting and I would highly recommend this venue to anyone and everyone! Reviewed on 19-12-2016

Bethany Nylander(wedding party)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 31-07-2016 We had our daughter's wedding reception at the Environmental Services Building (ESB) overlooking the Puget Sound. We were able to come early in the morning with a helper crew to set up and there was plenty of parking for guests. Since it was a beautiful sunny (but not too hot) day on July 31st, 2016, we had planned for dining inside as well as outside, and our DJ and the Cash Bar attendant were outside under the covered courtyard where we had dancing later. The DJ could easily move inside and out utilizing the sliding glass door which remained open to the lovely view. Guests could mingle, go into the lobby for food, restrooms, and in the dining area as well as outside. There was plenty of room for the bridal party to get dressed in \"ladies\" and \"gentlemen\" rooms off of the lobby, prior to heading to the church for the wedding and then back again for the reception. Everything went smoothly and we were so happy to have the event there. It was beautiful, the guests loved it, our daughter loved it, our son-in-law loved it, and we will definitely recommend the ESB!

Shalea Williams(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 09-07-2016 Thanks to all of the staff at the ESB for helping us have a wonderful wedding! Everyone was very friendly and eager to help out with all of our last minute changes. Andrea was my main point of contact and she was alwaya available via email or phone. The venue requires that you use Chambera Bay bartending service. If you're wanting a specific beer/wine/spirit I suggest you try to get a full list of their offerings. Reviewed on 16-07-2016

Marissa Soran(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 17-09-2010 We rented the ESB for our wedding mainly because it was the least expensive option we could find in the area that still had a decent overall appearance. We were able to fit 140 guest comfortably, with a large dance floor, and cake table into the great hall. The grounds are beautiful, so it's perfect for an outdoor wedding. We had our chairs facing the water, the grass was perfectly cared for, and the water feature was fun for the kids. The employees are very helpful and their preferred vendor list came in very handy.
