It’s just a short ferry ride or car trip to the Kitsap Peninsula, but you’ll feel like you’re a world away at wedding venues that include farms, gardens, forests and, of course, breathtaking waterfront locales.

You couldn’t have a more beautiful setting for your destination wedding and the Kitsap Wedding Tour makes it easy to plan your special day with a self-guided tour of six unique venues. You’ll meet dozens of caterers and other professionals along the way and end the day with an after-party designed to celebrate your love story.
