Weddings

The winners have been announced and we are smiling ear to ear. We are proud to say that Skamania Lodge has been voted Best Sunset Wedding and Best Northwest Wedding Venue in Oregon! Here comes our Academy acceptance speech: "Thank you to everyone who made this possible. We have such amazing clients and wonderful people that we surround ourselves with to make every special day flawless."

The event was decked out in yellow, black and white accented with citrus all around with stunning rentals by West Coast Event Productions. Uncommon Invites let us know about the event in advance with a stunning rhinestone shimmering invitation and we sipped on Willamette Valley Vineyards Pinot Noir as we stood proudly among Portland's premier vendors. Despite the 100 degree weather, there was about 150 in attendance, ready to cheer on all.

Among our crowd? Ryan from Focal Point Digital Media won two awards: Best All Around Wedding Vendor and Best Videographer for the Valley. Cherie Ronning, owner of Uncommon Invites, voted Best Invitation. Jennifer Rand-Walker, owner of Face Body Beauty, won Best Hair and Makeup for the Valley. It was quite the winning table! What a great evening and amazing honor to be apart of such an incredible group of talented people.
