Lacey Wedding

Lacey is a city in Thurston County, Washington. Formerly established as a suburb of Olympia, Lacey's population is now believed to be about three-fourths of its progenitor city. The population was 31,226 at the 2000 census.

Lacey was officially incorporated on December 5, 1966. At the time, the main industries were cattle, milk, forest products, and retail. Lacey became a "bedroom" community for Olympia and to some extent Tacoma. The city is a slower paced community with its best characteristics being in close proximity to many lakes and forests and also being close to the beautiful Nisqually Valley and the Nisqually Indians. Lacey sported the Northwest's first ever "indoor mall," the popular South Sound Shopping Center, however, this has been demolished and replaced by a Target chain store. When the Lacey Plywood Mill shut down, Lacey took on the challenges of being a place to invest in. Lacey now flourishes with retail, warehousing/distribution centers, a large retirement community, and Weyerhaeuser's corrugated container facility.

Lacey is located at 47135N, 1224826W (47.026368, -122.807170)GR1.
