Built in a hybrid of gothic and beaux-arts architecture, the hotel features a two-story lobby with a grand fireplace and terrazzo flooring. After closing in 1997, the property underwent a comprehensive basement-to-rooftop restoration beginning in 1998 under owners Doug and Becky Neuman, preserving original details such as stained glass bearing the hotel's historic crest and six original chandeliers. Today the boutique hotel offers over 5,700 square feet of event space in downtown Ashland, Oregon, along with 70 guest rooms for out-of-town guests. Its five connected event spaces — the Grand Ballroom, Crystal Room, Conservatory, English Garden, and Palm Room — range from an old-world-inspired ballroom with a built-in dance floor to a cobblestone-floored outdoor garden with a wrought-iron gazebo, suiting everything from wedding ceremonies and receptions to corporate meetings and rehearsal dinners.

    Tetherow is a 700-acre resort in Bend, Oregon, set on the edge of the Deschutes National Forest just minutes from downtown. The property takes its name from pioneer Solomon Tetherow, who led a wagon party through the area in the mid-1800s, and pairs that pioneer-era setting with an award-winning David McLay Kidd-designed golf course, a 50-room boutique hotel, vacation rental homes, and three on-site restaurants — Coorie, The Row, and The Café. At the heart of Tetherow's event offerings is the Event Pavilion, a versatile space with retractable glass doors that open to sweeping Cascade Mountain views, suited to everything from corporate retreats to wedding receptions. Its centerpiece, the Newberry-Zaal Ballroom, can be arranged as one full showpiece room or divided by air walls into smaller sections, giving planners room to scale a gathering up or down. Couples marrying at Tetherow often hold ceremonies on the manicured lawn below the clubhouse, with the Deschutes National Forest and Cascade peaks as a natural backdrop.

  • Flinn Block Hall, an event space at Flinn Block Hall

    222 W 1st Ave, Albany, OR 97321, USA
    • Spaces for 226-400 Guests
    • 1 Ballroom
    • 1 Historic Space

    Flinn Block Hall occupies the second floor of the Historic Flinn Block, a landmark building in downtown Albany, Oregon listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Historic Flinn Block combines two structures — the Flinn Block Building, built in 1887 as the city's premier office space, and the Ames Building, a 1910 hardware store — joined into a single building in the 1970s. The current owners purchased the building in 2005 and began transforming it into an event space in 2006, after a restoration helper asked to hold his wedding in a recently-vacated open area. What began as a one-time favor grew into a full renovation, adding an elevator for guest and equipment access, opening the front of the room to expose brick and large picture windows, building dressing rooms, and adding woodwork and a chandelier to the entryway. The 3,000-square-foot ballroom seats up to 226 guests at 60-inch round and 6-foot rectangular tables, with capacity for up to 400 with chairs alone. Exposed brick walls, antique fir floors, tall ceilings, and strings of white lights give the space its character, while a 17-foot service bar, a separate catering prep area, and two furnished dressing rooms support weddings, receptions, anniversary parties, and other private celebrations. There are no exclusive caterers or vendor requirements — clients may self-cater or bring in vendors of their choosing — and the venue allows alcohol service with an OLCC-licensed server and no corkage fee.

    Winn Homestead Events sits on a working farm at the base of the Blue Mountains in Weston, Oregon, where a 1916 barn built by George W. Winn still stands at the heart of the property. The barn was raised by 30 men in 30 days back when the Winn family farmed with horses; over the following century the land grew wheat, beans, potatoes, and decades of u-pick strawberries before Preston and Arlene Winn, the fourth generation to run the farm, restored the barnyard for weddings and events. Their daughter Kendra Winn Seymour and her family have since returned to carry the homestead into its sixth generation. The barn's ground floor retains its original dual layout — a dairy cow side with concrete flooring and a horse side with dirt flooring — while its 30-foot gothic arch beams now shelter a 2,000-square-foot ballroom for up to 150 guests, lit with strand up-lighting. Two acres of manicured lawn extend the celebration outdoors for up to 200 guests under café lighting, with the historic Bridal Cottage and Groom's Cabin, both heated and air-conditioned, available for getting-ready space nearby. On-site parking accommodates 100 vehicles, and staff-operated golf carts help guests move around the grounds.
