Fireseed Catering truly went above and beyond for our wedding day. The communication was impeccable right from the start—Dave and Dawn were always prompt, clear, and incredibly organized, which put our minds at ease throughout the entire process.
Their dedication and passion for what they do were evident in every detail. The beautiful grounds of Fireseed provided the perfect backdrop for our ceremony and reception, creating a magical atmosphere that our guests are still raving about. The food was INCREDIBLE and we have had multiple people sharing how great it was. Dave and Dawn’s love for their craft shone through, adding a personal touch that made our day unforgettable. Highly recommend!

I can’t speak to this venue as a customer, but my family and I were here just yesterday for a wedding and it was GORGEOUS! The staff was so kind. Our kids were in heaven with the lawn games, the gardens, the ponies, and the endless lemonade and sparkling water. The food was DELICIOUS: salmon, fresh greens, green beans, zucchini and squash, rosemary breads…plus all the appetizers! and the wine! It’s was just fabulous. One of the most peaceful wedding venues I’ve ever been to and so very Pacific Northwest with flowers tucked in every corner of the landscape. I asked the groom’s parents how they were doing, if they were exhausted and they said no because the venue had taken care of everything. Just a lovely space for guests and for kids.

A truly magical venue that's worth the wait. Amazing attentive and experience staff as well!

How do I even write something that does this wonderful place justice! We got married in July of 2023 and I truly wish I could relive the day over and over again.
Dave, Dawn, and Anna are kind and relaxed but super organized and know exactly how to run a wedding. Dave met with us about 6 months out to talk menu and rentals and was so helpful when deciding on courses, florals, glassware etc. He was even able to fulfill my dad's last minute request for ice cream sandwiches two weeks before the date! Dawn ran the rehearsal efficiently and made sure that everyone knew where they were supposed to be at what time and even gave us tips about how to stand at the alter. Anna was the point person on the day of and made sure we were kept on schedule, but never made us feel rushed or late.
Th property itself is absolutely stunning so you don't even need many decorations or florals. The space really speaks for itself.
Lastly, the food. This was maybe the most important thing to me when choosing a wedding venue and it did not disappoint! The appetizers were so inventive and used lots of fresh veggies and herbs from their garden. For mains we went with fried chicken with fingerling potatoes and seared salmon with mango chutney and brown butter spaetzle. And for dessert we had a hard time deciding between all of Dawn's dessert options so we went with 4: Cheesecake, lemon cake, chocolate peanut butter cake, and carrot cake. Everything was delicious and so fresh!
It was the best day and I am just hoping that one of our friends decides to get married there so we can experience another wedding at this amazing place!

Fireseed was truly the venue of our dreams. Not only was it a beautiful setting, but we loved that the food was so delicious (and our guests loved it too!), that they ran the day of coordination, and that we had all weekend to set up/celebrate/clean up. But MOST OF ALL they could not have had better communication. I planned the whole wedding myself and always had my questions answered right away, often within a few hours of asking them. We felt taken care of from the first point of contact. It is such a special venue and we would recommend it to anyone!!!

I was at this Venue to take photos, the gardens are immaculate, the staff are all helpful and professional. The food was absolutely fantastic, and when the batteries in my Flash died Dawn was able to find me two spare batteries for me to save my bacon. 10/10 Venue and the staff and owners go above and beyond. I’d never hesitate to come back.

WOW. Where to begin… my husband and I cannot say enough wonderful things about Fireseed. Our wedding was an absolute dream and it’s all thanks to Dave, Dawn, Anna, and everyone on the Fireseed team. If you’re looking for a venue that has quintessential PNW vibes, the most fresh and delicious food, and kind and lovely people, you’ve found your spot (stop searching, seriously). Our guests to this day still talk about our wedding and how it was the best they have ever been to; wonderful food, beautiful scenery, and an all-star team behind the scenes.When it came to planning, everyone was A+. We had no idea what we were doing and Dave guided us through the entire process, always quick to respond and answer all of our questions. He provided us with a template timeline for the day, took care of coordinating rentals, and gave us recommendations as different items came up. Dave is a lifesaver!Dawn and Anna were on point for the day of coordination, rehearsal, and tour. They were so professional and are truly experts. There was never a moment of stress because they were already steps ahead, I actually think they could read my mind.The Fireseed grounds are impeccable. I dare you to find somewhere more idyllic. When we stepped foot out of the car on the day of our tour we knew instantly this was the place for our wedding. It was so special to share such a slice of heaven with all of our family and friends.The food.. the FOOD. Dave and Dawn are truly masters of their craft. Dave provided a wide array of options and helped us create a custom menu. I also can’t forget to mention the delightful to-go bag of our meal at the end of the night to take back to our hotel.We will continue to shout from the rooftops that Fireseed is THE greatest venue and the best decision we made. But the cherry on top are the genuine and kindhearted people who made our day possible; we can’t express our gratitude enough. Thank you to Dave, Dawn, Anna, and everyone else at Fireseed!

Our wedding at Fireseed was more than a five star experience! For two main reasons:The venue itself - The Fireseed property is so beautiful. It was stunning in mid-August for our wedding. There’s so much to see and so many spots for guests to enjoy and for gorgeous photos. It was truly a dream wedding venue. Dave and Dawn have thought of so many extra details at the venue and for each wedding that made a truly excellent experience for us and our guests.The people - I always felt like we and our wedding were in the best and most caring hands from when we toured the venue to our wedding day itself and every day in between. Dave and Dawn are the kindest people, know everything about weddings, offered their expert opinions on our wedding questions, and made our wedding day an excellent and seamless experience in every way. Because of their expertise, preparation, and involvement I didn’t have nearly as much to worry about in planning the wedding, and certainly didn’t worry about anything the day of the wedding which felt amazing. We were beyond thrilled with Fireseed and it was the best decision we made about our wedding! I could not recommend Fireseed more highly!

From start to finish, Fireseed was a dream venue. The setting is idyllic, pictures truly don't do it justice. We initially toured in the winter, and even without the garden in bloom the grounds were beautiful. Dave was so helpful throughout the planning process and his responses were consistently clear and prompt. And the FOOD. Don't even get me started. Dave made the best salmon I have tasted in my entire life, and our late night chicken sliders were a hit. Our guests are still talking about how spectacular this venue was. If more people in the city knew about this place, the waitlist would be a mile long! Zero regrets about booking and would recommend it without any reservations.

We had the best wedding here and appreciate the Fireseed Catering team so much for all their amazing work and guidance through the planning and event. Some highlights of what we got at this venue:- A gorgeous venue. We couldn't have hoped for better. Inside/outside space was great for kids & COVID concerns.- AMAZING food AND dessert. Truly, restaurant quality food.- Bring your own alcohol. Saved us a fortune. And having a cocktail hour and then switching to beer and wine was perfect. We had our doubts but it was definitely for the best!- Guidance in planning. David walked us through the process and was a great resource when we were trying to figure out where to splurge and where to skimp, what was necessary and what was overkill. So much of it is done in-house, it really simplifies planning but isn't one size fits all.- Day of coordination/rehearsal guidance - Dawn, we would have been lost without you. Thank you. They told us where to be when and took care of everything around us so we could just enjoy our day.- An added bonus was that we loved the rest of the staff! They were so sweet and did an excellent job all around.Getting out of state folks to Whidbey Island for a weekend is definitely a logistical consideration. Otherwise, Fireseed will give you a beautiful and tasteful wedding in as seamless a way as possible in terms of putting on a wedding. We loved it so much. Thank you David, Dawn, Anna, and the rest of the staff!!
If I could rate this wonderful place 10 stars, I would! David, Dawn, and Anna were such a dream to work with. Throughout the whole process of planning the wedding, they were there to answer any questions and help make it into a real life dream. I can’t say enough good things about this venue and their entire team. The personalized menu from cocktail hour bites, to the main meal, were all delicious and made in house with many of the ingredients coming from their own garden they have on the property. The outside venue itself was so so incredible. We had our celebration at the end of September and there were still beautiful flowers everywhere. I am beyond happy with literally everything about Fireseed. If you’re looking for a venue, your search should stop with Fireseed. Book them!

We recently shot a wedding (and have done many now!) at Fireseed and they continue to impress. It's not unheard of for a venue to pull off a great wedding here and there, but Fireseed CONSISTENTLY puts their all into every single wedding they host. We've seen probably 8-10 weddings take place there now, and Dave, Dawn, and the whole crew is always on top of every detail. We love to see it, and can't wait to get back for more amazing weddings and dinners :) Yes, the food is incredible!

DREAM TEAM! If I could give Dave, Dawn, Anna and the Fireside team more than 5 stars I would! When you are looking for a wedding venue, you not only want a venue with gorgeous aesthetic/atmosphere, you also want a team that is going to execute your vision have your back on the big day. You get all of this and more at Fireseed. The Fireseed team made the entire planning process seamless and stress free for us. I had a lot of questions throughout the planning process and Dave was so patient and quick to respond with helpful answers. From coordinating rentals, menus vendors--Fireseed brought our vision to life and made our big day so special. On our wedding day, Dawn and Anna handled all of the day of coordination so we could be in the moment and enjoy our day.
Did I mention how gorgeous the venue is?! The venue grounds are breathtaking. We got married in August so there were flowers everywhere. You honestly don't need much additional décor because of the beauty the venue offers. We had the ceremony outside, followed by the reception in the barn which offers a beautiful, spacious area to continue the festivities.
The food is also some of the best you will have! We worked with Dave and Dawn to come up with a customized menu for our wedding and they did not disappoint. I had so many guests and vendors come up to me to tell me that it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding!
I cannot say enough good things about Dave, Dawn, Anna and the entire Fireseed team. One of a kind venue, one of a kind team. Thanks for everything!!

I thought I had written a review but low and behold I see I did not. My husband and I got married at this venue last June (June 25, 2023). To say it was an amazing experience would be a huge understatement. It was the most beautiful location I have ever been to, the staff (and esp Dawn and Dave) and so organized, kind and make everything flawless, and the food is TO DIE FOR. I want a friend to get married here so I can go experience it from their eyes. Do not look further, this is YOUR place.
Valerie Lindahl
Fireseed Catering is one of the most beautiful wedding venues in all of Washington! As a wedding photographer, it's such a joy to take couples to shoot around the property - there are so many beautiful areas to choose from. This location is gorgeous trees surrounding the ceremony space and is surrounded by forest, fields and lake creating 360 break taking views! A magical place for a wedding!Lastly, the entire Fireseed team was incredible! My couple said they couldn't have DREAMED of a better place to have their wedding!
