We fell in love with this place as soon as we walked in the door. We had visited a number of venues before finding this gem in downtown Sumner, and once inside, we both instantly knew this was the place for us to get married. Jeannie and Duane are fantastic hosts, the workmanship inside the building is breathtaking (each room makes one smile and wonder how many hours it took to make everything look that nice!). Our wedding went off without a hitch, and all of our guests commented on how beautiful the venue was, and how much fun they had at our wedding. All I can say is you won't be disappointed!
It was our absolute pleasure to be a part of your wedding day! Thank you, and we wish you and Joy all the happiness and blessings marriage has to offer!
Love this venue and the owners are wonderful!!! Perfect venue for the wedding of my dreams.
We loved our experience with the Winsome Grace. Jeannie and Duane were both incredibly helpful through the whole process and our day could not have been more perfect. Beautiful, classic venue with great service and amenities!
This venue is beautiful for any small wedding! Between the all inclusive accommodations and the gorgeous little corners amazing for intimate photos, I truly felt like a Disney Princess. Although this venue seems small, it perfectly fit the wedding party and our 100 guests without feeling the least bit cramped. I cannot put into words how kind and helpful Jeanie and her husband were before, during and after the wedding - they truly put their heart into every bride and groom feeling perfect on their special day. I fully recommend this venue for anyone looking for a classy, elegant, intimate, ballroom/princess style wedding! It is also totally versatile to any theme you may want!!
Hannah, it was such an honor and privilege to be there for you on your special day!! I'm so happy to hear from you!!!
We renewed our wedding vows, beautiful place,we used Act3 caterers, everyone loved the food, service was excellent.You have to see this place in person .Owners are wonderful people.
We loved winsome grace. The venue is quirky and beautiful at the same time. Jeannie was an amazing coordinator. She really helped make everything run as smoothly as possible. We would highly recommend this venue!
We had our wedding at Winsome Grace the summer of 2017. The owners of the venue, Jeannie and Duane were incredible. For an added fee we hired Jeannie to be the day-of coordinator, and she knocked it out of the park! I could just drift through my wedding day with no cares in the world. The venue is beautiful, clean, well stocked, and extremely interesting. It is indoors with air conditioning, but had outdoor spaces and large windows with lots of natural light. There were a lot of stunning photo opportunities inside of the building. At the time of our rental a lot of "bonus items" were also included in the package, which other venues charge separately for (such as dishes/silverware, linens, tables/chairs, DJ booth and lighting, etc.) I am so happy that I chose this as our venue. It was one of the few venues in the area that fit our budget, still looked clean and fantastic, and the owners are amazing to work with.
My daughter and her husband (Reilly and Josh) were married at Winsome Grace. They loved Winsome Grace. Jeannie and Duane were very easy to work with. They both offered good ideas and help in the planning and preparation for the wedding. In the world of wedding, Winsome Grace offers a serious bang for the buck. Included in the price come chairs, tables, linens, dishes, an excellent sound system, photo booth option, kitchen facility, bar facility, dance area, bridal suite with morning breakfast, and video tape coverage of the ceremony. The venue is unique and beautiful. Our guests had the best time and enjoyed exploring all the nooks and crannies. The bride and groom say the day was perfect.
We could not reccommend the Winsome Grace more. The price is simply unbeatable, Jeannie and Dwayne are amazing and flexible to work with, and it is absolutely beautiful.
This history alone makes this building a fantastic find. It was so fun showing everyone the secret rooms and passageways. Breakfast the next morning was delicious too.
Do yourself a favor and hire them today :D They really make you feel cared about and want to make sure your big day goes perfectly. They have done their research of the area and put a lot of love into their building, opporation, and couples that come through their venue.
Thank you Rachel, we were truly honored to be a part of your special day!! I can't wait to see those incredible pictures Jason and Hannah took!!!
Our wedding was amazing! We had a Great Gatsby themed wedding and The Winsome Grace was the perfect venue. Jeannie and her husband were very easy to work with. If you have not had the opportunity to visit this venue, it is a must see. The package they offer can't be beat.
Jeannie and Duanne's venue was the perfect spot for our wedding! Jeannie was very attentive from the first time we toured the venue until the we departed the morning after our wedding. They were both easily to contact and answered all of our questions prior to our event. Jeannie was so helpful the day of our wedding with setting up and decorating for our ceremony and reception. Chris and I literally didn't have to worry about a thing. Duanne also recorded our wedding and we got a copy to take home which was a wonderful surprise! That will be something we'll treasure for a lifetime. Staying at the Winsome Grace was a wonderful treat and really relaxing after everything. Breakfast was also amazing! Thank you Jeannie and Duanne for all that you both did for our special day!
They treat you like family/I appreciate the owners of this business and feel like they have created one of the most memorable moments of my life that I will remember forever and am forever grateful for. I thank God for them as well as all who made our special day smooth and beautiful. They're ultimate goal is that you're happy, If you're happy, they're happy. God first.
From the first step through the door my fiance and I were head over heals about Winsome Grace. Jeannie and Duane were welcoming and gracious on the tour and you can tell that this is something they truly love doing. After choosing Winsome Grace Jeannie was quick to respond and flexible with meetings and answering any questions I had. There is so much that they offer and accommodate! I didn't have to rent any linens, table, chairs or dishes. We even got to stay in the room upstairs that night! More then anything we were honored to be the first wedding they live streamed on their website which turned out to be an amazing blessing as my grandmother ended up not being able to make it. I can not say enough amazing things about this venue!
My husband and I live in Sumner now, but during most of our courtship and engagement we would take walks around Sumner. We would always end up in front of this gorgeous old Victorian Manor and think it's a shame that it isn't a wedding venue. I was tickled pink when I found out that it was indeed going to become one.
Initially it was out of our budget, but our hearts were drawn to this beautiful building. And after going to go see it, I was positive that I wanted to get married there. We sat down and decided that it was well worth re arranging the wedding budget for this!
And it was! Jeanie and Duane went well above and beyond everything I could have hoped for! I went with my mom and sister's to measure, count and arrange the wedding in our minds so many times. Every question answered clearly and promptly.
My wedding day was the most lovely of days, we did all the pictures first and had time to sit and have quiet time before the ceremony. My husband to be and I spent many long minutes relaxing together in the bell tower awaiting to become husband and wife.
Jeanie helped to plan the day of the event and arrange everything. And had a camera ready to capture that moments that the photographer missed.
Thank you so much Jeanie and Duane. Our wedding day was perfect!
Oh Jennifer, what a tremendous pleasure it was to be a part of your wedding day!! Thank YOU for allowing us that privilege! We hope you will stay in touch and keep us up to date on your lives together!!
We are so happy we were able to share in your Washington reception!! It was such a pleasure meeting your family! Thank you for the kind words!
Very personal and accommodating venue. Highly recommended. I hardly had to buy any decorations because of all the natural beauty the venue offers.
We are so pleased you choose The Winsome Grace to host your wedding and equally pleased that you, your family and guests had such a good time! Thank you for the kind words!!!
The owners, Duane and Jeannie, go out of their way to facilitate each event. Jeannie is positive and energetic. My mother's 92nd birthday celebration, and family reunion went off without a hitch! It was also a joy staying with them in their B&B! I can't recommend Winsome Grace highly enough. The facility is fabulous, but the owners provide the "icing on the cake".
Lovely venue; they go above and beyond.
A beautiful venue to have a gorgeous and memorable wedding ceremony and reception. They made my dream wedding come true. Family and friends loved the venue. Easy to work with and flexible. Super helpful!
Jeannie and Duane were amazing! I felt that I was able to relax on my wedding day and enjoy getting ready and setting up! My favorite thing is that when you book your wedding, you also get to spend the night in the suite they have upstairs, you get to use the hot tub and sauna AND they provide breakfast in the morning. You will also get a video of your entire wedding on a flash drive that you can watch over and over to relive your special day! Also, Jeannie is constantly working on how to make their venue better! Another thing I loved is that they are willing to work with you on payments. We planned our wedding 67 days (due to cancer striking our family we pushed our date up 2 years!) and she was willing to take payments up until the Friday of our rehearsal! They are amazing and they definitely don't disappoint!!!
Duane and Jeannie went above ànd beyond our expectations to ensure that us daughter and her new husband had the best reception ever! Duane and Jeannie are a very caring and loving couple and will do whatever's necessary, within reason, to accommodate all of your desires. The venue is BEAUTIFUL though, in our opinion, best suited for events with less than 100 guests. We HIGHLY recommend this venue you will be well pleased!
down town Sumner is the best kept little secret. The owners are the best at providing flexible timelines, and answering all the questions a Bride has. Jeannie is awesome at coming up with ideas and working with in your budget. the attention to detail, and their family friendly attitude are hands down priceless.
I would recommend any one to explore all the hidden rooms through out this historical venue.
We loved The Winsome Grace! At the time of choosing a venue, I was in contact with Jeannie and she was very informative over the phone. As owners of the venue, Jeannie and Duane were so pleasant and welcoming, I could tell that this venue was something that they put their heart into and take very well care of those who are in their hands.
Since our wedding was a destination wedding we had to schedule our visits and since we had 4 venues to look at on that day and we saved Winsome Grace for last. It was beautiful! My initial reaction was just awe and excitement. With it being an-all inclusive accommodations and the unique spaces in the building, it would be memorable for photos as well as the over all experience being in the building. The venue was clean, it had history, as well as beautiful. It had indoors with air conditioning and had outdoor spaces with large windows that would let in lots of natural light, which I loved!
Other places would nickle and dime you for everything that you will be using for the wedding, but at Winsome Grace, a lot of additional items were already included in the package, which other venues charge per item separately such as silverware, glasses, napkins, table runners, linens, tables/chairs, DJ booth and lighting, etc. Also you get plenty of time to prepare the venue a certain time in advance. But since this place has such a fascinating history, so much intricate detailing in every room and secret rooms, you wouldn't have to spend just as much to decorate. You also are able to live stream your wedding for those who are not able to attend, which was a plus, since some relatives were not able to attend and they were very grateful for the stream.
All in all, we are so happy that we were able to have our wedding here! Highly recommended with this venue!
