Columbia Edgewater Country Club is a private country club set on the banks of the Columbia River in Portland, Oregon. Established in 1924, the club is home to a championship 18-hole golf course designed by Northwest architect A.V. Macan, along with a 9-hole Mason Course, giving the grounds a century of golf heritage as a backdrop for events. The clubhouse underwent a nearly $9 million renovation in 2024 that modernized the facility while preserving its character. Its main ballroom features soaring ceilings and a wall of windows that opens onto an attached deck, making it well suited to a sunset cocktail reception with the golf course as a scenic backdrop.

- 1 Ballroom
- 1 Outdoor
- 2 Total Spaces
Built in 1912, The Laurelhurst Club is a historic ballroom venue set in one of Portland's classic residential neighborhoods, just steps from Laurelhurst Park and its century-old trees. A recent renovation refreshed the interior while preserving original details like the cathedral ceiling, exposed beams, and a 36-by-62-foot hardwood dance floor warmed by a grand copper-hood fireplace. The Ballroom spans 5,300 square feet and holds up to 150 guests seated or 250 standing, making it suited to weddings, receptions, corporate parties, fundraisers, and milestone celebrations alike. A curtained stage anchors one end of the room, while a mezzanine level overlooks the floor and converts easily into a private dressing space for a wedding party. Beyond the ballroom, a landscaped courtyard and more than a third of an acre of grounds - complete with stone pathways and an ivy-covered wall - offer an outdoor ceremony option for up to 100 guests. The Laurelhurst Club operates as a DIY venue, giving clients the freedom to bring their own caterer, planner, florist, DJ, and photographer, with the sole requirement that alcohol service go through OLCC-permitted staff.

Tanner Springs Park
1120 SW 5th Ave #1302, Portland, OR 97204, USA- Spaces for 300 Guests
Tucked among the high-rises of Portland's Pearl District, Tanner Springs Park is a 0.92-acre urban wetland that recalls the marshland and creek that once ran through the neighborhood before the city grew up around it. A winding boardwalk crosses a shallow pond planted with native wetland species, offering a quiet, green counterpoint to the surrounding streets — a setting well suited to small ceremonies and gatherings on the boardwalk. The park's centerpiece is an art wall built from 368 reclaimed railroad tracks set with 99 pieces of fused glass depicting dragonflies, spiders, and amphibians, alongside additional public art installations throughout the grounds. Designed by Atelier Dreiseitl and GreenWorks, P.C. following community input in 2003, the park opened in 2005 and uses natural systems to manage stormwater, reflecting its origins as part of historic Couch Lake and the Tanner Creek wetlands. Owned and managed by Portland Parks & Recreation, Tanner Springs Park is open daily from 5:00am to midnight and is free to visit.

- 1 Ballroom

Kennedy School occupies a 1911 elementary school building in Portland's Concordia neighborhood, once praised by Ladies' Home Journal for its innovative one-story architecture. McMenamins converted the historic building into a hotel and event venue, with guestrooms fashioned from former classrooms, complete with original chalkboards, and gathering spots like the Honors Bar and Detention Bar that nod to the building's school-day roots. The property offers several indoor and outdoor event spaces accommodating up to 200 guests, including a full gymnasium with a hardwood dance floor and an adjoining outdoor courtyard, a theater, and a handful of smaller classroom-style rooms suited to more intimate gatherings. Full onsite catering is available with accommodations for dietary restrictions, along with McMenamins' own handcrafted ales, wines, and spirits. Once the food and beverage minimum for a space is met, no additional room rental fee applies, and a sales coordinator assists with planning details in the lead-up to the event.

South Waterfront Park
SW Naito Pkwy, Portland, OR 97204, USA- Spaces for 150 Guests
South Waterfront Park sits along the banks of the Willamette River in Portland's South Waterfront neighborhood, running roughly 1,000 feet along the riverbank. The 4.5-acre park was designed by landscape architecture firm Walker Macy on a site once home to a lumber mill and the city's steam plant, and it provides direct public access to the river year-round — a rarity along the downtown riverfront. At its heart are four lily ponds, home to local ducks and surrounded by irises, azaleas, wild geraniums, and rhododendrons, along with meditation benches for guests who want a quiet moment. Paved, accessible pathways connect the RiverPlace Esplanade to the north with the Tilikum Crossing bridge to the south, opening up views of the Marquam and Hawthorne bridges and, on clear days, Mount Hood and Mount St. Helens. A pair of boulder-lined paths lead down to a natural silty beach exposed at low water, and the sculpture "River Shift" by Mathieu Gregoire anchors the grounds in basalt, concrete, and steel. The park is open from 5am to midnight and includes accessible restrooms, benches, and nearby shops and restaurants, making it a flexible outdoor backdrop for gatherings that want to take advantage of Portland's waterfront setting.

The SMILE Station is a community rental venue in the Sellwood neighborhood of Portland, Oregon, housed in a former firehouse built in 1921 as Old Engine 20.

The main floor hosts wedding receptions, private parties, memorials, corporate functions, and nonprofit gatherings for up to 90 guests standing or 76 seated at round tables. The space retains historic touches, including an antique baby grand piano and a gas fireplace, alongside a full industrial kitchen, a projector system with a 12-foot viewing screen, and landscaped grounds with a front lawn and side garden available in fair weather. A 2023-24 renovation added the Hainley-Leipzig Room, a smaller meeting and lounge space on the lower level with its own exterior entrance, suited to business meetings and smaller private gatherings. The SMILE Station is handicapped accessible and available to renters from any neighborhood, not only the surrounding Sellwood-Moreland community.

- 2 Gardens

Hoyt Arboretum is Portland's museum of living trees, a 190-acre collection with 12 miles of trails and more than 6,000 trees, free and open to the public year-round at 4000 SW Fairview Blvd. The land traces back to a 19th-century poor farm and has grown into a nationally recognized tree collection and community gathering place, maintained through a partnership between Portland Parks & Recreation and the nonprofit Hoyt Arboretum Friends. For weddings and private events, the arboretum offers several distinct outdoor settings that can accommodate groups of up to 100 people. The Stevens Pavilion, a triangular A-frame picnic shelter with open timber construction, is one of the park's most recognizable structures and a popular choice for Portland weddings. The Redwood Deck, an open wooden platform set within a grove of redwoods and sequoias, is often paired with the nearby Wedding Meadow — a rolling green clearing shaded by a large Douglas-fir — for a contrast of open lawn and deep forest views. The Stone Circle offers a smaller, quieter forested setting for ceremonies, reached by a short walk along the paved Bristlecone Pine Trail amid the arboretum's global tree collection. Rental proceeds support the arboretum's tree collection and educational programs, and reservations for any of the rental sites are coordinated through the Portland Parks & Recreation Customer Service Center.

Crystal Springs Rhododendron Garden is a 9-acre garden in Portland, Oregon, home to an outstanding collection of rare species and hybrid rhododendrons, azaleas, and other lesser-known shrubs. A spring-fed lake, three waterfalls, picturesque bridges, and shaded walking paths give the grounds a naturalistic, park-like setting for outdoor weddings, with views toward Portland's West Hills even though downtown is only minutes away. The garden has hosted weddings for over 70 years through a long-standing partnership between Portland Parks & Recreation and the Portland Chapter of the American Rhododendron Society, operating as Friends of Crystal Springs Rhododendron Garden. Its lush plantings and water features have made it a favorite backdrop for wedding photography. Weddings run seasonally from mid-May through September across several distinct sites on the property, from the open lawn of the Meadow to the more intimate, tree-shaded corners of the Woodland and Jane Martin sites, giving couples a range of settings within the same garden.

The 17-acre park surrounding the garden also includes open lawns, picnic sites, playgrounds, and a splash pad.
