Nestled right in downtown Bellingham, a little-know gem of a venue is waiting for your next special event. The Leopold Crystal Ballroom was built in 1929 as part of the original hotel at 1224 Cornwall Ave. Now a lovely retirement community, the Leopold still offers the traditional ballroom for any type of event from weddings, fundraisers, and corporate banquets.
The facility offers some special features like a built in dance floor and stage, separate rooms for the bride or for the buffet, stunning crystal chandeliers and tall mirrored doors. The perfect wedding theme for this space would be “Old Hollywood Glamour,” and the price is affordable for all that glam.
If you want to take a look at the Crystal Ballroom, call Lara at (360) 733-3500 or email lara@leopoldretirement.com
I was honored to take part is a styled shoot at The Crystal Ballroom to show off the many possibilities for this space, including having your ceremony right in the entry room where a cute staircase descends down. Thanks to Bellingham Photographers Genaro Shaffer and Clinton James we were able to capture some inspirational moments.
