I grew up in Bellingham, WA and moved away when I was 18 years old, back in 2001. Lairmont was always a popular place for events - I remember having piano recitals there when I was 10 years old and choir concerts there in high school. I never knew that in 2025 I would be getting married there!
When I got engaged, I asked my fiance if he would consider us getting married in Bellingham (we live in Los Angeles now). He said he was already hoping for that. I showed him Lairmont Manor when we were up visiting and he fell in love. We knew it had to be there. We LOVE vintage, deco, and design so it was going to fit our vibe perfectly.
We primarily worked with Hope at Lairmont. She was amazing. So kind, helpful and reassuring. Hope was even so kind to set up a personal appointment tour a week before my wedding for my father who is handicapped and was full of anxiety. He wanted to ensure he knew how many steps there were and where all the bathrooms where before the day of. Hope was so kind and patience with him and my mom.

Read moreThank you to the Lairmont for providing such a beautiful and classic space for our wedding! Everything about the Lairmont was absolutely perfect. The staff, especially DJ, was so friendly and kind throughout the entire process. DJ answered all of our questions, gave great ideas, and would let us wander the property whenever we wanted. She was so kind and excited for our day, which made it even all that more fun. The space is absolutely gorgeous, and has everything you need for a timeless wedding. From gorgeous landscaping and grounds, to magical string lights, to beautiful brickwork, it is an ideal location for a classic wedding. The amenities are unreal--tables, chairs, tent, day-of staff--and I never once worried about our venue. Thank you DJ and team at Lairmont for such a wonderful...
Read moreAs a professional wedding planner and the groom this time, I can firmly say that my experience working with the team at Lairmont Manor was second-to-none! The space is perfection, the gardener takes impeccable care of the grounds, and the staff is just so sweet and accommodating. The venue itself has so much character and beauty without needing to go broke decorating it like a traditional banquet hall or hotel. We are Chicago residents, and we wanted to get married in Seattle because it holds significance to us. We couldn't find a venue we loved more between Bellingham and Seattle, which is about 90miles. Speaking from experience, the commute from Seattle to Bellingham is gorgeous and does not feel as...
