You have found the perfect setting for this most important occasion. The Willows has been operating as an Island Inn since 1910, and hundreds of couples have pledged their vows here. The history, combined with the magical setting and breathtaking views, food that is elegant and flavorful, make the Willows Inn an ideal location for a Northwest wedding.

While we can host weddings up to 100 guests, we also excel at hosting small weddings of 25 or fewer. See www.smallnorthwestweddings.com for more information.

Most couples choose to be wed outdoors in our wedding garden. Smaller ceremonies sometimes marry on our beach, which is a short walk from the inn. There is a charming Congregational church on the island where many couples have their ceremony. No matter where you choose to marry, the fellowship, celebration, and fine food which accompany a wedding come so easily in a venue so unique and relaxing as the Willows Inn.

We have hosted more than 40 weddings since 2001, and though there have always been normal anxieties and uncertainties before the ceremony, every wedding has been a wonderful, unique experience that has consistently exceeded the families' expectations. Couples make it a priority to return each year for their anniversary. In 2002 we hosted a couple's 60 wedding anniversary, having wed here in 1942. Imagine being able to show your children where you were married, and being able to share that experience with them as they get older.
