My Favorite Oregon Wedding Venues

March 30, 2023

I’m so excited to be able to share with you some of my favorite wedding venues in Oregon! Did you just get engaged and you are planning your wedding in the beautiful state of Oregon? Congratulations and welcome to my website and blog!

I am invested in all my couples happy days outside of just taking their wedding photos; I want to help them achieve their wedding dreams and have fun while doing it! For this reason I love writing informative blog posts, reels and Tiktoks to help assist with their wedding planning vision.

Today we are going to talk some of my favorite wedding venues in Oregon! I am a Portland based wedding photographer, so a lot of these recommendations will be within driving distance of PDX. In my opinion, these are some of the best Oregon wedding venues out there and I’ll list why below!

Mt Hood Skibowl

If you are looking for a mountain wedding venue, then Mt Hood Skibowl is perfect for you! Guests take the ski lift up to a beautiful ceremony with a full view of Mt Hood in the background. This mountain wedding venue is best in the summertime!

Redland Family Farm

If you’re looking for an Oregon wedding venue that’s a nice mix between barn/farmhouse and modern, then Redwood Family Farms is definitely the place for you. Not only does it have a gorgeous getting ready area, but it also has a beautiful outdoor space that can accommodate a large wedding.

Best Oregon Wedding Venue for Forest Weddings

A few more of my favorite outdoor spaces for weddings in Oregon are Leach Botanical Garden and Cedarvale Events. While Cedarvale Events does not have an indoor reception area they have beautiful lawns, and acres of forests – perfect for your dream woodsy wedding.

Leach Botanical Garden has such a stunning wooded area – full of vibrant, colorful flowers and larger than life trees. The bridge in the woods overlooking the venue has to be one of my favorite parts of this outdoor Portland wedding venue.

Best Oregon Wedding Venue for Indoor, Industrial Weddings

If you’re looking for a more urban feel, I love The Evergreen. This venue has great character and is ideal for your dream indoor wedding. It can hold around people in its spaces. I especially love the views from the upstairs- they make photos look amazing!

My Favorite Vineyard Wedding Venue – Oswego Hills Winery

If you want to have a vineyard wedding in Oregon, try Oswego Hills Winery. This gorgeous venue has an outdoor and indoor option for your ceremony – perfect for Oregon with its unpredictable weather. It features a beautiful gazebo, rolling hills and of course their vineyards are great for photos. This is one of my favorite outdoor Oregon wedding venues.
