Let’s be real: the Pacific Northwest is wedding heaven. Forests that feel straight out of a fairytale? Check. Coastal cliffs with foggy, moody vibes? Yep. Mountain views that’ll make your jaw drop? You already know. I’m a PNW wedding + elopement photographer who’s shot at a ton of these spots — and I’ve put together a list of 15 of the best wedding venues in the PNW broken down by style (because no two couples are the same, and honestly, some venues just hit different). Whether you want something luxury AF, wild and woodsy, or somewhere with an ocean breeze and zero rules — there’s something in here for you.
Luxury Wedding Venues (for the Couples Who Want the Damn Best)
The Fairmont Olympic Hotel – Seattle, WA
$10,000–$25,000+ Inquire with them for exact rates | Up to 300+ guests
If Gatsby got married in the Pacific Northwest, it would be here. Think chandeliers, grand staircases, and the kind of energy that screams elegance. If you want a city wedding that still feels classic and romantic, this is the one.
Domaine Serene Winery – Dayton, OR
$12,000–$30,000+ Inquire for an exact quote | Up to 200+ guests
A French-style vineyard in Oregon with some of the best wines in the U.S.? Say less. Killer views, next-level catering, and that bougie vineyard magic.
Sunriver Resort – Sunriver, OR
$7,500–$15,000+ inquire with them for a more accurate quote | Up to 350 guests
This one’s a whole wedding weekend — golf, spa, mountains, bikes, hot tubs. If your ideal wedding includes some nature but also top-tier amenities, you’ll love it here.
The Corson Building – Seattle, WA
$1,000+ inquire for exact pricing | Up to 80 guests
For foodies who want to wine + dine their people. It’s intimate, romantic, and full of character.
Outdoor + Forest Vibes (AKA PNW Doing What It Does Best)
TreeHouse Point – Issaquah, WA
$7,000+ inquire for info | Up to 80 guests
Treehouses. Real ones. You can sleep in them. It’s moody, green, and feels like a storybook in the woods. 10/10 for cozy elopements or small weddings.
The Emerald Forest – Redmond, WA
$1,600+ inquire for more details | Up to 35 guests
This intimate venue is literally in the trees — platforms, rope bridges, forest everywhere. It’s unique, magical, and perfect if you don’t want a cookie-cutter wedding.
The Woodlands House – Sandy, OR
Inquire with them for exact pricing | Up to 75 guests
A-frame cabins, big trees, and weekend vibes. This one feels like you rented a cool cabin with all your best people and just happened to get married.
Mt. Hood Organic Farms – Hood River, OR
$7,000+ inquire to see more accurate pricing | Up to 175 guests
Mountain views, orchards, a greenhouse ceremony space… and did I mention, the organic catering? This place is cute as hell and the views? Unreal.
Olympic National Park Elopements – WA
$50-250+ | 5+ guests
If you elope with less than 5 guests no permit is needed, more than 5 you do need a permit
Wanna hike into your ceremony spot? You got it. Beaches, alpine lakes, mossy forests — pick your poison. It’s amazing.
Coastal + Cliffside Spots (Moody, Windswept, Iconic)
Cape Kiwanda – Pacific City, OR
$100–$200 permit + lodging | Small weddings + elopements
Golden cliffs, wide beaches, and wild waves crashing behind you while you say vows? Yes. It’s dramatic in the best way.
The Griffin House – Hood River, OR
$5,500-10,000+ inquire for more pricing details | Up to 175 guests
Cliffside ceremony spot. Big open skies. Private. The light here at sunset is beautiful. This one’s a stunner, the view is just wild.
The MV Skansonia – Seattle, WA
$5,000+ inquire for more information | 175-200 guest capacity
Getting married on a rustic ferry boat, say less. This is a waterfront venue, and if you’re looking for something unique look no further, this would be a wedding with a lot of character.
