Abigail's Garden
(available May thru October)
Enjoy a spring or summer wedding at Abigail's Garden, the Portland, Oregon area's premiere wedding site, where gentle spring breezes shower your ceremony in cottonwood confetti and butterflies waltz on the warm wind of a summer eve. Abigail's Garden encompasses a fairytale ceremony setting and a 60'x70' reception tent, making it Oregon's premiere outdoor wedding ceremony site. Use the smaller lower garden area for cocktail receptions and photo opportunities. Wedding guests have room to roam through the garden with its gleaming white gazebo and the glowing tent on the hill. The garden possesses a slow-moving Southern elegance mirrored in the meandering Abernethy Creek, and whispered on the leaves of the surrounding hardwoods.
Veiled Garden
(available May thru October)
The veil represents subtle beauty and seemed like the perfect name for our new garden. In a secluded one-acre woodland, its filtered light, babbling brook and lacey white gazebo provide the perfect backdrop for an intimate wedding. Move effortlessly from your intimate woodland wedding to an elegant reception in the Abernethy Ballroom. Be one of the first to marry in the Veiled Garden, the newest and most unique place to get married in the Portland area.
