Chambers Bay is a one-of-a-kind venue with a professional, fun and down-to-earth team. Communicating with Kate and Anthony was a breeze, and Kate made a technically difficult wedding weather-wise and size-wise (200 people and it poured during the scheduled outdoor ceremony time) work smoothly! The venue even let me customize the lighting, and the tent offered a beautiful and elegant space for a coastal PNW/New England aesthetic. Kate listened to all of my logistical details and helped me work out some things I hadn't thought about well ahead of the wedding. She listened and took requests throughout the day-of as well, which involved a lot of pivots due to the weather! The day was somehow cozier and dramatically romantic thanks to a smoothly running crew that found a way to make all the guests comfortable and dry while also executing my vision. I'm so happy to have been married at Chambers Bay and would recommend the venue in a heartbeat. Thank you for everything, Kate, Anthony, and the Chambers Bay crew!

When initially searching for a wedding venue, nothing I saw felt right until I saw pictures of Chambers Bay. The view is just as incredible in person as it is in pictures. The fact that the venue takes care of the food, alcohol, chairs, tables, linens, and setup made it so easy and convenient, especially since I was planning the wedding from out of state. We were able to sample the food from the menu and try different wines ahead of time, which was great, and everything was delicious. Kate was helpful and responsive throughout the planning process. I would advise to book early - I booked my date over a year early and the original date I wanted got taken out from under me. I don’t think there could be a better wedding venue, I wouldn’t hesitate to choose it again if I could.

Chambers is a great venue to host a wedding. The view is unbeatable and the tent is an open canvas waiting to be decorated to however you want it. They worked with us on a few item...

s, we wanted our guests to have late night hot dogs, originally we were going to have a different vendor come by but Chambers beat their prices and fired up the grill just after 10 pm. Chambers rented us a golf cart with driver to shuttle us around the property during cocktail hour so the wedding party could take pictures. The food and service were great and our guests were very happy and full. We had a few concerns going in such as the noise ordinance, they assured us that wasn't a problem and on our wedding day it wasn't a problem. They have a great list of recommended vendors for DJ's, photographers, flowers, cake ect. Although we didn't exclusively use their recommended list, everyone we used who was on their list was great. They have an experienced staff who knows how to host a wedding. There were no surprises on the bill after the wedding and they were very fair and transparent. We highly recommend them!

If you need a wedding and reception venue that takes care of almost everything, in a beautiful setting. This is it. My husband and I had a very busy year. We were so happy that cha...

mbers bay took care of seating, tables, linens, dinner, and bar service along with providing the dance floor and tent! It made it possible to focus on the other details and have a beautiful wedding. The food was really good too.

I don't think we could have chosen a better venue for our wedding. It's one of the most beautiful views I have ever seen. We had so many people tell us that this was the best weddi...

ng venue they had gone to. They loved being able to be in the reception tent but also having the sides rolled up to be out on a lil patio area enjoying the view. The staff went above and beyond for us and as a bride it was the best feeling. I knew that there was no worries because they were always making sure everything was going as planned and no problems were had. Kyra and the banquet coordinator are both amazing. If you are unsure of a location, I highly recommend Chamber's Bay. I would get married here all over again if I could afford it every year ;) Thank you Chamber's Bay for making our day so amazing and enjoyable!

ct! My Husband is an avid golfer and was very excited to be getting married at the same site as the US Open this year. The staff was very helpful and responsive. We came out several time to go over details and ask questions. They were always friendly and helpful. The catering is included with the venue and was so easy for us to choose. They had us come out for a free tasting so we could select everything. The food was amazing and we were able to bring our parents to help with the selections. Everything went very smoothly the day of wedding and turned out better than I could have imagined.

We were fortunate enough to have our ceremony and reception at Chambers Bay. If given the opportunity to do our wedding over again, we wouldn't hesitate to work with Chambers Bay ...

once more. The wedding of our dreams became a reality given Chambers Bay breathtaking views, beautiful facilities, delicious food options, high-level service and last but not least, their incredible staff! Kyra, Jamie and the rest of the wonderful staff at Chambers Bay were extremely easy and enjoyable to work with during our planning process. They viewed us as more than another couple or banquet customers, but they truly made an effort to assist us and offer valuable guidance for our special day. Our positive experience at Chambers Bay was largely the result of the incredible staff. While the venue offers tons of relative value, it was Kyra and the staff that make this venue a must for any couple looking for a venue.

ring in beer we brewed for the reception. You won't find a better view, and the staff that worked the reception were professional and fun - especially Lauren. The prices are very fair considering the quality of the food and the gorgeous view. They set up a golf cart so we could go around and take photos. Everything we needed, they made it work. Definitely look into having your wedding here - you will love it!
