Guide to Portland, Oregon Wedding Venues

The Village Ballroom is a historic venue that's great for big weddings of up to 299 people. Built in 1909, the ballroom has a bar and greeting room, along with tall windows and 100-year-old wood flooring. The rented room comes with tables, chairs and a built-in sound system.

What makes The Village Ballroom extra special is that, when you book with them, your event also benefits a local charity who has partnered with the ballroom. The ballroom is one of the lesser-known wedding places in Oregon that gives back to the community.
