The Troutdale House by the Sandy River

The Troutdale House by the Sandy River occupies a building that began as a vegetable packing house in the early 1900s, when Troutdale, Oregon was known as the celery growing capital of the world. Original wooden beams from that era remain in place today. The building went on to serve as an antique store, an art gallery, and even a brewery before Laura Burlus purchased the property in 2007 and opened it as a wedding venue on May 1, 2008 — with her own vow renewal as the very first event held there. Renovations between 2014 and 2021 added a wine cellar, a Victorian room, a lodge-style ceremony site, and a weatherproof wisteria courtyard, giving couples seven ceremony locations to choose from, three indoors and four outdoors, including two covered, year-round outdoor sites with heaters. The three-story building also holds the Enchanted Ballroom, with high ceilings and chandeliers, and the Rustic Lodge, warmed by a gas fireplace. The venue hosts only one event per day, and rentals include tables, chairs, linens, décor, and lighting with no hidden fees. An open vendor policy lets couples bring in their own caterers and bartenders. The property also includes a private bridal suite with makeup stations, a groom's lounge styled around a vintage 1950s Cadillac, and a game room with pool, air hockey, foosball, and vintage arcade games for guests to enjoy.
