Perfect and beautiful venue!

If you are looking for a venue near but not in the middle of Portland this venue is your spot! We initially found Ainsworth House & Gardens after narrowing our search down to LGBTQ+ friendly venues and venues that had indoor/outdoor options, since our wedding was during autumn. We had 37 guests and the space was perfect! Everybody complimented the venue and were especially amazed by the beautiful gardens (and the giant tree)! Our ceremony was outside then the reception was held inside. There was plenty of room to get ready and the reception hall is wheel-chair/walker accessible. As an FYI, the dressing rooms are not wheel-chair accessible (but hopefully the downstairs one will be, in the future). The staff are responsive and very helpful. Highly recommend!

Perfect garden setting at an affordable price

Ainsworth House is a hidden gem. The alter and seating shown near the big tree are as beautiful as pictured. And the indoor (air conditioned) reception area has lots of windows and an open feel. There are also several terraces for guests to enjoy. Laurie and her staff are incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the planning process and the big day. So don't be put off by the fact that Ainsworth is about 30 minutes away from downtown Portland. We provided a shuttle from the hotel for our guests, so the transportation was no problem at all -- especially since this venue is more affordable than many of the downtown options.
