A fairytale wedding comprises of nothing but a venue that encompasses the unique settings at every nook and cranny to make your special day even more special. Finding such a venue to tie the knot is half the battle. As a private event facility situated on seven acres, Lakeside Gardens is a magical wedding ceremony and reception venue in Portland featuring a complete Oregon setting. 

Conveniently located minutes away from downtown Portland, Sunnyside Corridor, and Gresham, this space boasts plenty of views of waterfalls, fountains, bridges, and swans.  Lakeside Gardens adorned with towering cedars, weeping willows, and lakes, create an absolutely picturesque location for your special day.

The venue can host 50-250 guests amid the beauty of an arched ceiling, overlooking the upper lake. It opens to a lovely terrace over the water’s edge. The Terrace Room that overlooks the lake with a graceful 17-foot arched ceiling and floor-to-ceiling windows, is an exceptional place to exchange vows. 

The adjoining Gazebo Room allows your guests to comfortably mingle and enjoy the incredible lake, garden and gazebo views. You as a couple will enjoy the terrace and subsequent rooms, as well as the beauty of nature which has been discovered in the small and big islands.

The guests will admire the cake-cutting and dining amidst the shimmering upper lake in the background to capture scenic wedding pictures. The venue spills out onto a patio that accommodates added lakeside seating along with a gleaming fountain on the lake.

If you want to host a warm month wedding outdoor, you will love an upper gazebo. With an added layer of beauty, a pretty white pergola, covered in a sweetly scented wisteria takes you to the gazebo. Adorned with the beds of flowers, this space is a treat to our  Portland wedding photographers to seize your wedding photos in the most stunning frames.

The Fireplace Room adjoining the main reception area and Gazebo Room displays a magnificent fireplace with gracious marble and oak surroundings. Bonus? The black ebony baby grand piano that resides in the room, that can be used as a photo prop for some romantic Instagram-worthy shots of you two smitten in love! This iconic centerpiece can also be showcased in your outdoor ceremony or played during your reception.

Year-round evenings at Lakeside Gardens are superb. The twinkling lights follow the bridges and cover the roof as well to create a charming setting. White landscape lights that surround the lake and elegant outdoor lamps gleam the path for a romantic stroll at night. 

If you want to live the best moments and get them captured amidst the prettiest settings for your Portland wedding photography on your big day, reserve Lakeside Gardens and host your ceremony in the lap of the hushed and lush gardens.
