For weddings and events, the lodge offers covered outdoor pavilions and an indoor ballroom. The Riverview Pavilion is a 2,500-square-foot covered space with river and mountain views, WholeTrees beams, fireplaces, and a dance floor for receptions of up to 180 guests, while the smaller Moonlight Pavilion, set against Red Bluff Mountain, holds up to 80 guests with a firepit and on-site bar. Indoors, the Stevenson Ballroom accommodates up to 350 guests for larger celebrations, and additional spaces such as the Amphitheater, Moonlight Lawn, Garden Patio, Glacier Hall, Boulder Terrace, and Atrium provide further options for ceremonies and cocktail hours. Couples can get ready on-site in the lodge's guestrooms, suites, treehouses, or cabins and villas, and the property's in-house culinary team caters each event. Beyond weddings, Skamania Lodge serves as a meetings and events destination with a dedicated conference center, along with dining at the Cascade Dining Room and River Rock, spa and wellness services, golf, and adventure activities such as ziplining that round out the resort experience.

The Locks Venue sits on the Columbia River Gorge in Cascade Locks, Oregon, offering waterfront wedding ceremonies on Thunder Island, a secluded spot surrounded by natural greenery and river views. Couples exchange vows on the island itself, with wedding chairs included as part of the ceremony setup. For getting ready, the venue offers the Lock Tenders House, a historic building set alongside a canal that serves as the bridal suite, blending rustic charm with modern comforts. Receptions move to the Gorge Pavilion, a versatile indoor space with panoramic views of the surrounding landscape that can suit both intimate gatherings and larger celebrations, with tables and chairs included. Additional spaces include a covered outside bar area for beverage service and an event tent for food stations, catering setup, and cocktail hour. The venue's staff handles setup and cleanup for every event, and couples are free to choose their own vendors without restriction.

A charred-timber gathering hall rises at the center of Wind Mountain Ranch's open meadow, its floor-to-ceiling windows framing the Cascade foothills and the forest line beyond. Completed in early 2025, the building takes its shape from the property's original timber cabins, giving the new construction the weathered, Shou Sugi Ban-inspired texture of something that has always belonged on this 22-acre property outside Stevenson, Washington, in the Columbia River Gorge. The ranch has passed through generations as farmland, orchard, and horse property before settling into its current life as a wedding venue, and that history still shows in the seven timber cabins that line its tree edge, each fitted with its own kitchenette, gas fireplace, and front porch. Couples can choose among three outdoor ceremony settings — a lily pond backed by southern mountains, a hilltop overlooking the Columbia River, or a stand of evergreens beneath windswept peaks — before gathering in the new indoor space for a reception, with room for up to 175 guests. Weddings here come with a personal venue coordinator who works with couples up to six months out, a curated collection of furniture included at no extra rental fee, and the freedom to bring in any outside vendor.
