Event Policies
Located between the Bavarian Village and the top of Stevens Pass, our secluded Leavenworth Event Center offers a scenic location for weddings and other gatherings. On this page we answer frequently asked questions about our event facilities and services.

Just two, no open flames and nothing that makes holes or sticks to the surface. You are welcome to decorate the barn to fit your needs with any decorations that can be removed without any harm to the venue.
You are responsible for setting up any decorations that you bring onto the site. Our staff will take them down (Platinum and Gold packages) following the event and have them ready for you to pick up by 10 a.m. the following morning. Silver package events are responsible for cleaning up their own decorations after the event or we can do it for an additional charge. You are responsible for making sure that everything you bring onto the site leaves with you the next morning.
We allow any outside catering you wish. We have had everything from barbeques to lavishly catered meals. We provide you with all the necessary table settings (plates, flatware, stemware, etc.) but all serving dishes and utensils are your, or your caterer’s, responsibility.
We are a beer and wine venue only. We do require that you use our drink package that you can find on the wedding page that includes state certified bartenders, serving vessels, stemware, alcohol, etc. for a per person price.
You are also required to have a banquet permit which you can get online or at any liquor store.
Yes, we have a separate bridal suite as well as a groom’s suite for changing, relaxing, or hiding out! They are both equipped with sinks, large mirrors, and counters as well as couches and chairs for sitting. Each room can easily fit the entire bridal party.
We have a large event parking area on site that we staff with parking attendants to direct parking for your guests at no additional charge.
Typically, weddings will start around 4 PM but you can let us know when you would like it to start. The only limitations are music must be off by 10 PM and guests not staying in the suites must be off the grounds by 10:30 PM.
Yes. With our historic barn we always have an inside option if the weather turns bad. We can set up the ceremony inside with a days advance notice if the weather outside is turning bad and then flip back to a reception site following the ceremony. This usually takes around a half-hour to accomplish. The bride and groom always have the option of having an inside service anytime.
It is required that you rent all available suites at Pine River Ranch the night of your event. We can also hold rooms prior to or after the event as needed. There is also nearby lodging available that we can recommend to you for additional space.
• A 50% deposit will be required at the time of the booking to hold the date.

• Any cancellation made after the contract is signed, and up to 180 days prior to the event, the deposit will be forfeited.
• Any cancellation made within 180 days of any event will result in forfeiture of the entire amount of the event.
