Venue Breakdown | Treehouse Point


Green Apple would like to share one of our favorite venues with you this week; Treehouse Point. Treehouse Point is located in Preston, Washington and is one of the most visually stunning venues Green Apple works with. We would like to share a short description of the venue, the story behind it, and a mission statement taken from Treehouse Point's website.

"Treehouse Point is a dream come true for Pete Nelson, world renowned treehouse builder and author, and his wife Judy. The two of them feel honored to be stewards of such a beautiful place and love to share it with others. Pete teaches the craft of treehouse building while Judy, an accomplished chef and hostess, works with her team to plan and host unique private events, celebrations and overnight retreats.


The THP team is committed to a vision of sustainability while providing opportunities for lodging, education and connection in a unique and natural environment. Whether it’s hosting a wedding, planning a corporate retreat or implementing new practices, green principles are always at the forefront of daily operations."

This last weekend the Green Apple staff worked with the Treehouse Point staff to cater a wedding! The event was beautiful, and everything went smoothly thanks to everyone's hard work. It is truly a joy to work with Judy Nelson, and her employees! The menu for the special day started off with Belgian Endive with Gorgonzola Mousse topped with Smoked Salmon and Fresh Grapes. The guests then had a delicious salad with cucumber, radishes, and green onion tossed with a smokey paprika vinaigrette. The main course was Lemon Rosemary Grilled Chicken Thighs and Petite Free Range Hamburgers. Side dishes included Mac & Cheese with Hempler Pepper Bacon, Corn on the Cob with Herb Butter, and lastly Green Beans with
Shallots and a Balsamic Drizzle. The favorite of the night seemed to be the Belgian Endive appetizer as the guests were going for seconds, thirds and even fourths! Below are photos from the event.
