Awarded Best of Zola
What a fun venue! Beyond the unassuming entryway lies a flexible space that worked perfectly for our wedding. Most people I’ve told about our venue hadn’t heard of WithinSodo, and I’m surprised. It has multiple different spaces you can use (or not), a customizable vibe depending on your lighting and decor (you can hang things you can’t at other venues and have real candles), and we loved the plant-filled roof deck with a view of the Seattle skyline (and some furniture included so we saved on rentals). Compared to other venues we considered, this was much more unique, interesting, and dynamic while remaining reasonably priced. We also loved that we could do extra walk-throughs for no extra cost. Kate Anderson, our main contact, is a delight to work with—friendly, thorough, detail-oriented. Jody, the bar lead, has high standards for the WithinSodo's bar program, and even held a private cocktail tasting for us to make sure the drinks we'd selected (both boozy and nonalcoholic) were perfect before the big day. Highly recommend this venue!

We believe that people see the problems our world faces and have the desire to help, but often don’t know where to start. So we started Cathedral with one goal in mind — to build something that’s the sole purpose of existing was to make this world of ours a more just and beautiful place. Building things that matter takes time. Cathedrals took generations to build — those who began the work didn’t see its completion. The architect who drew up the plans would never see their spires rise. The mason laying the bricks would never stand under their cover.

We hosted a baby shower at The Lookout and it was absolutely perfect. The view is incredible, the trees were so green and beautiful, and the goats were such a cute and unexpected bonus to say hi to. The open-concept layout made everything feel easy and welcoming, and the space felt thoughtfully updated without losing its cozy, relaxed vibe. It was the kind of place that made the day feel extra special and effortless. Highly recommend for an intimate celebration!
