The Old Schoolhouse

rden) are all gorgeous backdrops for memories and photos. Erica and her staff are extremely helpful, kind, and attentive. I would highly recommend The Old Schoolhouse to any couple in search of an elegant venue!

helpful. In terms of the property itself, WOW is it stunning! There are so many beautiful and multi-functional areas to be utilized. We chose to have our Monday morning ceremony inside the Schoolhouse itself. We loved how beautifully simple and elegant it was! The hardwood floors combined with the beautiful crisp, white walls, the gorgeous chandeliers and windows really provided an amazing backdrop for the ceremony. We loved that there were so many options for what we could do for decor - literally everything can go with this space! Our reception was outside on the lawn. There is a ton of space! We had a 30x90 tent covering the gravel area for our food and seating, and had enough space on the grass to set up croquet, ladder ball, giant jenga, giant checkers, bocce ball.....with room for a popsicle cart and space for kids to run! The hazelnut orchard on the property was a gorgeous space for our first look and private vow exchange. For behind the scenes spaces, the bridal suite is lovely! There were plenty of antique desks with large mirrors and great lighting for getting ready, and a separate room with couches to just hang out on! The grooms quarters provided plenty of space and another comfy couch for the guys to hang out on while waiting for the ceremony. I have to say that Erica and her team went above and beyond for our special day. In the days leading up to our wedding the forecast suddenly changed and it looked as though it might rain. Erica was so flexible and was willing to change the setup of the space the night before if necessary so as to avoid the rain. Luckily, we had gorgeous sunshine on the day of, but I still appreciated her willingness to go with the flow (aka the weather!). Erica was also amazing in that she provided a lot of great suggestions during the planning process of what our setup might look like, what vendors she recommended, how the day might flow, etc. All in all, choosing The Old Schoolhouse for our venue was a fantastic choice! Located out in wine country with beautiful natural scenery, extremely helpful staff, and an affordable price (especially on weekdays!), the Schoolhouse served as the perfect place for our best day ever!

exceptional service one step further on the day of our wedding. Every staff member involved ensured our wedding ran smoothly, they took care of our guests and somehow managed to elevate their service and tailored to us, the bride and groom. Aside from the phenomenal service, the venue is simply gorgeous. From the orchard where we took our family photos that turned out beautiful. to the manicured lawn where we had our ceremony, to inside the schoolhouse that provided an intimate setting for all of our guests, you just can't go wrong with The Old Schoolhouse. I wish we could get married again just to use the venue one more time!

tention to detail. The venue and grounds are breathtaking. We had simple table setting with lovely flowers, and we did not need much to create a warm and inviting space. The fee included all the tables and chairs, time for set up the day before, and plenty of time day of, for us to get ready. We looked at many places in the PDX area, and The Old Schoolhouse was by far the most beautiful spot. Five stars is not enough! My daughter and her husband are so happy they chose The Old Schoolhouse. They truly had the wedding of their dreams.

d Schoolhouse! From the tour date to our wedding day, Erica was extremely helpful and always quick to reply/answer any questions or concerns we had. She was so easy to work with and flexible to any ideas we had. As someone who is new to this wedding thing, planning and making big decisions (especially picking the venue!) was overwhelming and stressful. But once we visited The Old Schoolhouse, we knew this was the place we wanted to say 'I do" and it was the best decision we made during the whole process! From that day on, the stressed decreased and felt like we were in good hands! Erica provided us with tons of vendor recommendations (which we used and LOVED!) , gave her advise and was always willing to make our ideas work. I felt like i asked more questions than normal and sent about 2-3 emails weekly, but she would always ensure me that she was there for us and I never once felt like I was bothering her or asking silly questions. The venue itself was beautiful, the perfect size and we loved the ability to be inside or out. Our guests could not stop telling us about how beautiful the grounds and ballroom were. We really didn't need much decor at all, due to the fact the facility is breathtaking by itself and had all the functions you could need (bar,AC,kitchen etc), it really made planning easy! For anyone who wants a breathtaking views, stress-free planning and unique-beautiful wedding, this is the place for you!

ld be a stressful day for some brides. I felt very relaxed. Our bridal suite was so comfortable to get ready in, with great lighting for makeup application, and enough vanities for all of my bridesmaids to get ready at the same time! The grounds where we had our photos and ceremony were very well manicured and gave so many options for ceremony site (which we had on the lawn), and first look (in the orchard). The Schoolhouse itself is so dreamy, and fit perfectly with our vintage/French inspired (with a touch of rock 'n roll) wedding. It comfortably held our 100 guests with ample room for dancing. I love the touch of the built-in DJ booth, and bar area, so it does not take up space needed for guests or catering. The price was incredibly reasonable and includes round tables, and 3 large wooden farmhouse tables and chiavari chairs, which adds to the elegance. We rented additional farmhouse tables, but could have easily used the round tables to save money. I highly recommend booking if you are looking for an intimate wedding site in the middle of wine country without the vineyard pricing.

y smoothly with all our other vendors and the wedding went perfectly thanks to their efforts.

s to view the venue a couple times, as well as communicating and giving feedback on what would work best in their space. The venue was extremely well kept and was such a lovely atmosphere to spend and experience our entire wedding day. There are multiple locations for photos as well as the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception to take place which allowed us flexibility in our timeline. We really couldn't have asked for anything more!

high ceilings and wood floors to the gorgeous chandaliers and large windows. The bridal suit is a lovely addition to this venue as the entire bridal party was able to gather and get ready before the ceremony began. The groom's suit was the perfect gathering spot for the men to get ready and enjoy the countdown before the ceremony. The garden is beautiful and well kept, and the orchard makes for stunning photo backdrops. We snuck away into the orchard for our "first look" photo shoot. Erica and family were kind and delightful to work with. They were helpful with many of the wedding details and well prepared for our big day. We were beyond blessed to share our special day with family and friends at The Old Schoolhouse.

e gorgeous chandeliers, the beautiful mirror backdrop, the hardwood floors, the vintage design is absolutely incredible! The owner of the venue was incredibly helpful with ideas, rehearsal, and getting everything prepared on time. I would recommend anyone to get married here. The options are so versatile as you can have both ceremony and reception indoors, ceremony outdoors with a gorgeous backdrop and reception inside... I couldn't be happier with how our wedding turned out!!

hroughout the whole process. I highly recommend this venue to get married!

reedom to use the entire facility and grounds as I pleased. Which was quite nice since we were literally "dragging" vintage couches through the orchard. Erica was accommodating and really helped keep things low key and casual which was our number one goal. The beauty of the Old Schoolhouse is that it's ready to capture whatever theme or vibe the bride could want.

bout making my husband's and I's day perfect. They were willing to work with my outside vendors and coordinator to make every detail on the day of run smoothly. The only thing that I wish I could have changed was the amount of time allotted for the wedding day. Since there was a strict time frame, the entire day felt very rushed. We got there and immediately had to rush through pictures in order to be done before guests started arriving for the ceremony. There were several pictures that my husband and I wanted but due to time constraint, we never were able to get them. Overall, the venue was a dream, but I do wish that the venue provided more time on the wedding day- I even would have paid more for it!

ection of vintage china adds to the uniqueness of the venue. The staff of the Old schoolhouse was also very helpful. They made it feel like everything was always under control and taken care of, what a great experience.
