Wedding Ceremonies at Alder Grove

Wedding ceremonies at Alder Grove unfold on our outdoor ceremony lawn, framed by towering native alders and Douglas firs with Mt. Rainier rising in the distance. Couples have used the space for traditional aisle ceremonies, intimate elopement vows under the trees, and everything in between. The natural setting means no two ceremonies look quite the same — afternoon light through the canopy changes the feel of the grove from hour to hour, and the surrounding evergreens turn every photo into something that could only have been taken in southwest Washington.

These photos showcase real couples saying their vows at Alder Grove. You’ll see a range of decor styles — from sparse, nature-forward setups that let the grove do the work, to fuller designs with arches, draped fabrics, and floral installations. The ceremony lawn is intentionally flexible, accommodating wedding parties from 25 guests to 300. If you’re imagining your own ceremony in this setting, our Weddings page walks through everything that’s included with a booking.
