We found The Hall at Fauntleroy the week of our engagement while walking our pups in our West Seattle Neighborhood- we felt how special it was, and loved imagining the possibility of our wedding taking place just walking distance from our house. Immediately The Hall at Fauntleroy Team was responsive, thorough all while being festive and helping us feel celebratory. We loved the Event Proposal process, where The Hall of Fauntleroy Team drafted different versions of what our wedding and reception might include at a myriad of price points, everything was customizable to meet our vision of what was important and where we wanted to devote resources. Our dedicated coordinators were attuned to our energy and consistently made us feel seen - even when we were being two neurotic brides (virgo/capricorn duo). The team also had excellent recommendations for other vendors we might want to work with - but was equally warm and welcoming to vendors new to their team. We had so much fun at different planning events put on by the team including our tasting, an open house with featured vendors and our individual planning sessions. We also ate and drank so much! The full food and drink program was dialed in, thoughtful, seasonal dishes with local touches were exactly our vibe, We still dream about the lemonade! We understand our bias, but truly it was the best wedding we have ever been to and it's what we continued to hear from a lot of our guests. Flow was effortless, staff were professional and FUN, we ate and drank so many delightful things. The setting felt cozy and unique, while maintaining quintessential Seattle energy. With one of us having a career as an event planner, the technical details were something that were very important to us, and it was perfect. Our day was both chic and comfortable - which is no easy task, but precisely what we requested. Coordinating a wedding as a queer couple can feel extra daunting, the wedding industry is often geared to a very specific vision of what a wedding should look like- The Hall at Fauntleroy team seamlessly integrated our narrative into our vision of our perfect wedding. Thank you for our perfect day.

We held our wedding ceremony & reception at The Hall at Fauntleroy in August. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would 100% recommend the venue. We held our ceremony outside in the garden and reception upstairs in the Emerald room. The garden is a beautiful setting and it actually makes you forget you are right in Seattle. The outdoor bar provided our guests drinks before the ceremony and made for a smooth transition to our outdoor cocktail hour. The beautiful brick walls and big windows of the Emerald room make for an ideal dinner setting. The room required little additional decoration and ended up being more beautiful than we could have imagined. Our guests raved about the food and we were impressed be the catering staff throughout the day. They were kind to all our guests and paid extra special attention to us. While everything came together perfectly, we did feel like overall communication leading up to the wedding could have been better. We often felt like we had to email the team multiple times to get a response. Thankfully, when it was time for the wedding all of our special details were done correctly (long tables instead of rounds at dinner, dual aisles for the ceremony, cut limes for the Modelo beer). We would absolutely recommend The Hall at Fauntleroy for anyone considering a Seattle wedding.

I got married at the Hall at Fauntleroy in June 2019. The venue is beautiful, especially the garden, and our first experience on a tour was wonderful, however, their staff's attention to detail was poor on numerous occasions leading to a number of big disappointments. We had very poor communication from Kimball leading up to our day, including her missing on 4 occasions that we had requested no pork or shellfish. Luckily, another coordinator caught this as "No Pork" was written on our menu, but Kimball had failed to let us know that it was in the stuffed mushrooms, and helped us change it 5 days before our wedding.On our wedding day itself the event staff set up our ceremony site ($500 extra fee) with 32 extra chairs, leaving our ceremony feeling empty and me wondering if we had many guests not come when in fact almost everyone was there.The day-of staff also didn't leave space for a dance floor on our wedding day which I thankfully caught before the guests moved into the reception room. We did have a day of coordinator, but these things were missed as we were told the staff at HAF would attend to them.

We weren't able to do our wedding at the beginning of Covid but when things started opening up Kimball made sure to contact us to let us know if we were open to a small intimate wedding that it was possible and she would be there to help every step of the way. She kept in touch and when we decided to do a small intimate wedding she was rite there with any questions I or we had. She's Amazin we loved her. The venue is a must have its breath taking and sooo beautiful. I got alot of compliments on the venue. She made sure we social distanced and mask were on and whatever else was needed to be done.

We held our wedding reception at The Hall at Fauntleroy, and it couldn't have been a more wonderful experience!We knew we wanted something non-traditional (totchos, trivia, and icream truck delivery, anyone?) and Kimball and her team at The Hall pulled out all the stops to make our vision come to life. It was the perfect evening, and everyone had such a fantastic time. We couldn't have pulled it off without the support and enthusiasm from the folks at The Hall.

I was married here last month and had such a good overall experience. Now as it goes with any wedding, it was not without hiccups but the staff, especially Reed, were great at working through any issues with me... and were patient with me. I required a lot of detail and a lot of talking me through things, and Reed was a peach!If you are considering using this venue for your wedding please consider the following:Raves:- The Vashon room has been almost completely redone and looks beautiful. Brand new carpet, large pendant lights. Gorgeous.- The mirror in the Vashon room is amazing to be next to during your ceremony while your back is to your guests. You're able to sneak quick peeks at your friends and family all while still being able to focus on your ever important vows.- There are four distinct spaces in this venue (studio, Vashon room, garden courtyard, and Emerald room) so it gives you a lot to play with in terms of decor. - Their prices are hard to beat. I did a lot of research before I settled on the Hall at Fauntleroy, and I don't know any other space that would have been able to give me such high quality service at the price they did.- The food is so, so, so good. Their catering company, Tuxedos and Tennis Shoes, is amazing.- Plenty of free street and parking lot parking. Downside:- There are no hotels in West Seattle so your guests will all either have to drive or take a $30-40 cab ride back in to downtown Seattle.- If you think you can use the Vashon room for the ceremony and the reception, you are probably wrong. There is just no good way to flip the room without having tables tackily "hidden" during the ceremony, so get over this idea right away. Either use the Emerald room for both the ceremony and the reception; get married out in the garden and use Vashon for the reception only; or use Vashon for the ceremony and Emerald for the reception (what we ended up doing after months of debate).

I really dislike this place. Huge, blank, boring facility. They force you to utilize their - and I'm not embellishing here - embarrassingly unimaginative and low-quality catering if you use their blank and boring facility. And, if that weren't enough, they are incredibly rude. I mean, needlessly and openly rude. Any interaction I've had with any of the people who seem to manage this place has been hostile. It's like they have a story running through their heads that everyone is taking advantage of them, and that the only way to deal with we who are taking advantage of them is to be exceptionally curt, rude, and unaccommodating.tl;dr - cold warehouse run by lousy people who serve Costco food at catering prices.

From the first time I reached out to T&T catering to the amazing salmon dinner, the T&T team was absolutely amazing. My first interactions were with Kimball and Sara, whom I hold dearly in my heart. They graciously walked my now husband and I through the planning process of having our special day at the Hall at Fauntleroy. On the big day, the T&T team stepped up even more than I could ever expect. 1) Rain was in the forecast and we planned to have our ceremony in the garden. The T&T team set up the upstairs room for our ceremony in case we changed our minds last minute, which we eventually did. That was such an amazing surprise! 2) A crow flew into our reception room before the ceremony (I had no idea - great job T&T + my wedding party!). Due to the food safety hazard, the T&T team once again went above and beyond and moved our entire reception set up (tables, chairs, decor, cakes, etc.) to the upstairs room. It was mesmerizing to watch while we finished our family photos inside. Lastly, but certainly not least, the team lead an incredible dinner service (family style). They made sure that all special meals when to the correct guests, wine glasses were always full, and even cracked some jokes with our friends at the "Jesse table". I HIGHLY recommend working with the T&T team for your wedding or any event. I cannot wait to work with them again one day in the future. Thank you for everything!

I would classify this wedding venue as an outdated disappointment. The overall atmosphere is lack luster and in need of modernization. A lot of additional floral and décor would be necessary to make the venue feel unique. However, a major concern is the lack of true ADA accessibility. There are stairs connecting different spaces, but no chair lift or elevator for guests in wheelchairs or walkers. The venue does not prioritize the accessibility of the space, which could hinder the experience for guests. Though it does have some parking, that does not outweigh the other obvious short comings of the venue when there are many other wedding locations in Seattle to choose from that also let you bring in your own caterer and have a much more updated, ready to go look. They also do not seem to have AC, which given the past hot hot summers we have experienced in Seattle I can imagine that the venue would be completely insufferable and uncomfortable for all guests.
