Set at the threshold of Oregon wine country on 13 acres of gardens, groves, and lawns in Forest Grove, Grand Lodge is a historic property that hosts weddings, rehearsal dinners, brunches, and showers for groups ranging from ten to a thousand guests. The building opened in 1922 as a Masonic Home before McMenamins took over as steward in 1999, reopening it in 2000 after extensive renovation; decades of history remain visible throughout, along with the legend of the hotel's resident ghost, the Lavender Lady. Grand Lodge offers a range of indoor and outdoor event spaces, from intimate parlor rooms and the Alice Meek Inkley Room to garden and grove settings like Catchings Grove, the Children's Cottage and Sequoia Grove, and Haynes' Glen, suiting anything from a small ceremony to a large reception. Five restaurants and bars, a movie theater, a spa, and games give out-of-town guests plenty to explore before or after an event, and many linger on the property for their entire stay. Full onsite catering with dietary accommodations, wait staff and bartenders, and a dedicated sales coordinator are included with every event, and there is no additional room rental fee once the food and beverage minimum is met.

The property's Event Center hosts weddings and private events with vineyard and mountain views, backed by an outdoor amphitheater built for ceremonies and get-ready suites for the wedding party. Its tasting room and patio, framed by waterfalls, a pond, strolling paths, and a fire pit, offer a smaller-scale rental option for private gatherings when not open to the public. Catering is handled exclusively by the venue's in-house culinary team, and all wine, beer, cider, and seltzer service runs through Aurora Vineyards' own estate wines and selected brands.

Mt. Hood Oregon Resort sits on more than 300 acres of forest along the Salmon River in Welches, Oregon, about an hour east of Portland and 15 minutes from the Mt. Hood ski areas. The property traces its roots to 1882, when Samuel Welch and his son Billy purchased land along the river; in 1928 the site became the first golf resort in Oregon, and it has passed through several names and owners since, including a period as The Resort at The Mountain, before its current identity took hold in 2018. For weddings, the resort draws on its forest and mountain setting across several distinct spaces: the Cascade Ballroom for indoor receptions, the waterfront Lakeside Pavilion for seated dinners, and the manicured lawns of Pine Cone Bluff, framed by Hunchback and Zig Zag Mountains, for ceremonies.
