Rosehill Community Center Reviews

We loved this Venue! We had our ceremony out on the lawn area, and our reception inside the Point Elliot room with high ceilings and floor to ceiling windows with a wrap around balcony! We had 90 guests and it was a perfect amount of space and did not feel crowed. Our caterer enjoyed the kitchen set up. Staff were very friendly and make the planning process very smooth.

We had our wedding here and it was exceptional. A really beautiful venue that also has facilities needed to host a real party - full kitchen, stage for band, etc. Sunset there is incredible. Also if you are a resident you can rent the facility for an extremely affordable rate.

When my Husband & I were looking for a venue (a little over a year ago) to get married at we looked into the snohomish venues because we really wanted an outdoor ceremony... but like all well established venues, they were all extremely pricey and you would have to go along with their preference for vendors, which would have easily doubled our original budget. Thankfully we found this place and once we saw the view of the water and the building, we were sold... to top it off, the price was more affordable than the other venues with a much better view and they allow you to bring in your own vendors.

I found this place by accident while I was searching for venues onlines, Rosehill is a very new building. The artistry on the architecture is simple stunning; with high vaulted ceilings and huge tall glasses that overlooks the water, it looked so clean, sleek, and sophisticated. To book the place we had to do a lottery system and although I feel that there should be a better way to do it I'm not going to complain about it too much, the price was much more afforable then any other venue and we decided we were willing to drive up there (coming from Renton) every 1st wednesday of the month untill we've secured a date.

* The customer service we've had was great and professional. All of them seemed fair, friendly, and helpful. You have to understand this is not a Private venue, it is a community center, with that being said, the regulations they have are justified. This is a quiet town... I feel that it's part of the reason why the place is so beautiful and I respect that. I feel bad for the lower rating on this place because I just feel people have been too judgemental, comparing it to "private venue" vs a "public one". If you know what you are getting into and can respect that, then you will

Beautiful and reasonably priced. Rose hill Community center was the perfect place for us. With views of the Puget Sound, Olympic Mountains and ferry's coming and going it stunning.
All of the ladies that helped us with details leading up to the wedding were helpful and responsive. There are some tight restrictions on what is allowed- no flower petals real or artificial on the floor, no confetti etc..., but if you can be flexible on some of those things it is absolutely worth it!

The venue is gorgeous, and every room has a beautiful room... they were very accommodating... we ad to change the date a couple times because of family issues and they were so polite about the whole thing,

I had my wedding Ceremony and Reception here. I rented out the Point Elliott Room. I had about 130 people. 17 round tables were out and we had still SO much room to dance. I was very fortunate to get the day that I wanted a year in advance. All the way up to the day of the wedding the staff at the center was very gracious and helpful. I had no problems whatsoever. The venue was great, the staff was great, the view was spectacular. I can actually say that my wedding day was perfect. The only downside about this venue is the location, but it's only because all my friends and family live south of Seattle. This venue has everything that I wanted the price, parking, views, things for people to do, space, tables and chairs and great places for photos.

The venue has a lot of rules, but they are very upfront about them. They gave us a packet when we filled out our application and it included all the information you could possibly need. As long as you are aware of their rules (ex: No Hard Alcohol, Beer and Wine OK), they are very easy to work with. The front desk staff was super friendly and they were always able to answer our questions. The view speaks for itself and our guests were all impressed by the water, ferry, etc.

The venue is absolutely gorgeous. For the price you pay on a Saturday, it's very hard to find something like that near Seattle. It rained the night before so we ended up getting married on the plaza rather than the grass but it worked out still really well, and then the reception inside is awesome. Had a wedding of 130 guests, with plenty of room inside! We were able to bring our own alcohol (beer/wine only) and caterer, which helped us save on costs too! The one thing I would say is that there are a lot of rules, and they seem very strict. That added some stress to the day, but overall it was an awesome venue!

Bright, open, with huge windows,and a lovely patio area for guests to look out at the Puget Sound! This venue was perfect for our 180 person wedding. The staff were very responsive and professional. Extremely easy to contact and work with. I loved that you could bring in all our own vendors. We couldn’t set up the night before and had to be totally cleaned up by midnight which made the planning process a little tricky(however, both things we knew going in) but otherwise it truly was the most perfect space!

We had our wedding in the Point Elliott Room at the Rosehill Community Center in Mukilteo on 5/4/13. First of all, it was an unusually beautiful day without a cloud in the sky and a nice breeze with a temp of 75 degrees. This is undoubtedly the wedding venue with the best view I have ever seen! I visited several venues before deciding on the Rosehill Community Center. It was the only indoor wedding venue that could accommodate our large group (around 216 guests!). Dale in the office was very accommodating and always responded to all my emails and questions, and there were a lot! Some of the main things I liked about this venue: size, location, view, layout, ability to use whatever catering I wanted, large commercial kitchen, separate bride/groom rooms right next to one another, parking, ease of access, ability to store items in prop room for a few days before/after wedding, use of projector/laptop for slideshow, use of easels and all tables/chairs.

This room is literally so beautiful that we barely used any decorations! There are many locations around the venue indoors, outdoors and within a block or 2 to get amazing photos.

There were a few small cons, but the pros outweighed the cons so much that I don't need to mention them :)

This place is absolutely gorgeous! Everything is new, clean, and well maintained. The view of Mukilteo waterfront from the facility is breath taking. Soo many windows and awesomeness! Its great that the light house is literally a couple blocks down for photo shoots too. Its so nice to be able to have my ceremony on their huge grass area over looking the water and then the reception in their facilities. No catering restrictions or limited lists of who I can pick to work at the venue. Lots and lots of freedom! And such great price points for this venue in comparison to other Snohomish County venues.

The only two negative things I would say was that I have yet to hear from the coordinator lady that was supposed to have called me. The other one is the time change for Sundays. It used to be available until 12a. They have changed it to 10p. (This has caused them to have a lot of sundays open now..in case you don't mind ending the party a little early its a good option for a lesser price too). Otherwise you have to go during the first of the month to get in on the lottery drawings for that month the following year.

Beautiful Venue, Great Prices, Dale was a pleasure to work with! Really hard to get a date and some staff are less friendly and helpful then others. They don have catering and have a lot of rules but the view and room make it all worth it!

Super affordable and a beautiful location!

Pros: Beautiful place day or night. You can get a discount on the rental fee if your address is Mukilteo.
Cons: They might rent out earlier time slot which means you can not get enough time to set up. You have to set up chairs/tables and clean up when you are done. So many strict rules on decorating.

Just to start out with a disclaimer, we didn’t end up going with Rosehill so I can’t comment on how the actual event would have been.

We went to the lottery night and were the only ones that showed (this was to book March 2016 dates). We picked a date not having done the proper research on what all of the vendors would cost.

When we started to get catering quotes for our 120 guests we got them back in the range of $6500 - $10,000. After we started to take into account that we would also need to hire a cleaning crew, and a wedding planner to coordinate all of the vendors we started to look at more all inclusive options and in the end realized we could save money and a lot of stress by moving venues. Another factor was that when we finalized our list we were worried that it would feel awkward in such a big space.

I would recommend Rosehill to someone who has a BIG guest list and is looking for a beautiful location for their big wedding. We are still a little sad to give up that view!!

The employees at Rosehill were very quick in giving us our money back minus the $400 deposit. I felt a little better that it is going back into the community of Mukilteo, but was still hard to say goodbye to $400.

I would recommend to Rosehill to give up the lottery. I feel like they might be causing themselves more work in back and forth/cancelations. After visiting other venues I realized how nice it was to be able to take some time and look at their calendars of available dates. They could still have certain nights, but you should be able to book out more than a year. Also I think if they contracted a cleaning crew that was always part of the package it could clear up their expectations. We got a little nervous also after reading reviews that they were very particular on how it was cleaned that day.

DONT BOOK ANYTHING HERE!!! Well the one and only other review here I can testify is kind, compared to my experience with the staff. I won't go into all the details of our experience as we have been battling with the facility and trying to cancel our reservation after 12 hrs and it's been going on for months all over a few hundred dollars($600 they refuse to give back after depositing a check I never authorized or signed or read any contract!!) & they get out of court overtime because they are the city and can do whatever they want. The last reviewer said it perfectly, every question I've called about or gone in and asked about, every single person either didn't know, acted inconvenienced, was short and flat out rude especially the manager JANET. If your thinking of a important event or wedding here, you may want someone to help you who cares and wants to help you that's easy to work with. This is not Janet, the center or their management. I've never in my life experienced such horrible people to work with.
