From the reviews

I’ve had the pleasure of photographing here on a couple of occasions and I am blown away by how beautiful it is! But not only that, the owner has thought of everything you will need to have your wedding go smoothly and has provided lovely covered areas, a getting ready area and even a sweet little bar nook.

Leah and Keaton’s wedding at The Orchard in Hood River was honestly such a dream to photograph. If you’ve never been to this venue, it’s tucked right into the Columbia River Gorge with the most insane views of Mt. Hood and rows of fruit trees that feel straight out of a movie.

We had an absolutely amazing experience at The Orchard. We ended up here after a string of bad luck due to COVID that led to us turning a large indoor wedding in Portland into a small elopement. We were connected with Molly in mid-June and she was able to help us get everything together for a July 31st event.

★★★★★ — Ashley, Jan 2021

My husband and I feel so fortunate to have had our wedding at the Orchard. From the beautiful landscaping, to the breathtaking views of Mt. Hood and Mt. Adams, to the well-designed, elegant barn and overhead twinkle lights... this venue is just magical!!

Getting married at The Orchard

The Orchard comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth it. First, see the garden at the time of day and season you'd actually get married — a garden that glows at golden hour in June can look very different at noon in March, so ask what's in bloom for your date and walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move, and does it hold everyone?), shade and bugs for a summer afternoon, the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular garden dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
