We had an incredible day, made all possible by Gorge Crest Vineyards and Jena! From start to finish, Jena was right by our side. She is knowledgeable, organized, and professional. Gorge Crest has a list of professional vendors that are all wonderful, easy to work with, and familiar with the venue layout! The day went by perfectly and seamlessly. Our guests could not get over the view and the venue, and many said it was the best wedding they had EVER been to! It was a huge compliment, but I have to say it was all Gorge Crest!

If you're looking for an indoor/outdoor venue with stunning views and incredible staff, this is IT!!! It seriously does not get better than Gorge Crest Vineyards in the Pacific Northwest.

Thank you to everyone for making our day unforgettable! We're still not over it!

Jena is great! Love her! Everything about the venue is wonderful. Minor details some may want to consider: cannot pick you own band and the music decibels rules. Even so, I loved our wedding and I have no regrets!!!

Gorge Crest is THE BEST place to elope and have a full wedding party! After COVID-19 through a wrench in our original wedding plans, we decided to elope in the Pacific Northwest. We looked at multiple options (including a few in the Hood River / Mt Hood area) and decided on Gorge Crest for the following reasons: 1) First, the views are magical. 2) You can stay on the property. The red barn you see in the photos has an apartment above, where we stayed for multiple nights, waking up each morning to a sunkissed Mt. Hood. If you don't stay there, this space is perfectly positioned as a getting ready area for the bridal party. We used it for both. 3) The property is versatile. And it's got a great vibe. We had dinner for two after our ceremony. 4) When you see Gorge Crest you can envision the party that it can create. It has a string-lit dance floor, hammocks, lights, smaller spaces for people to break off, wild flowers, fields, vineyards, and a flat grassy space. While it was just me and my husband for our elopement, I have no doubt that it would be a special place to bring friends and family together to celebrate. My husband and I had an extraordinary experience and are so grateful that we chose Gorge Crest. 

My wife and I were so thankful to get to visit our wedding venue on our anniversary this year! With very limited options for our 1 year anniversary due to covid this visit was a Godsend. It was so great to relive our wedding day at our venue 1 year later. Gorge Crest will always remain the cornerstone of our wedding day.

The minute we parked and walked out on to the lawn, we were absolutely sold on having our wedding at Gorge Crest Vineyards. We were blown away by the amazing view. One of our requirements was to have Mt. Hood in the background of our ceremony. Jena then showed us around the property and we could not stop smiling as we imagined our guests’ reactions to where we were having our special day.

Obviously getting married in the summer of 2020 wasn’t easy for anyone. Due to COVID restrictions, we were having second thoughts about our original venue about 1 month before our wedding. We reached out to Gorge Crest, Jena was incredibly responsive and responded to our inquiry right away. We were able to schedule our tour practically the next day. I had booked our day of coordinator, photographer, DJ, and venue 11 months in advance. Even though they have a preferred vendor list, Jena worked with us so we could keep all of our original vendors we had already booked. Jena worked with our coordinator to ensure she understood the layout of the property and all of the things she needed to be aware of. We did have to rebook a photographer and caterer. We went through their preferred vendor list and they were all amazing to work with.

We reserved the venue and then four days later, the Washington Governor said no more wedding receptions after a three week grace period. Jena worked with local government to understand the restrictions that were being put in place and things we could do that would still meet the guidelines. Unfortunately, the definition of wedding receptions are defined as anything with food, drink, and/or dancing adjacent to a wedding ceremony. Our wedding date was the weekend right after the three week grace period. During the uncertain times, Jena worked with us to find a solution.

We had a great experience working with Gorge Crest Vineyards. Everyone we talked to about the venue all had amazing things to say about working with Jena. They are very respected in the community. Lastly, they have the cutest stationary. Jena is so thoughtful by sending thank you's and looking forward to the big day post cards. If you’re looking into figuring out all your wedding plans, don’t wait to go see this venue because their dates definitely book up fast! If you think the pictures are amazing, just wait until you see it in person!

Gorge Crest Vineyards is simply gorgeous! I recently took engagement photos at the venue and was blown away at how beautiful the place was. Views included gorgeous wild flowers, tall grass, woods, orchards and a beautiful view of Mt. Hood. I would highly recommend this place for any type of wedding event!

My wife and I loved having our wedding at Gorge Crest. The view provided a beautiful backdrop for our photographs.

We got married at Gorge Crest in July 2015 and were so fortunate to be able to return for a 5-year anniversary celebration. Jena was SO kind and flexible to let us visit and have a picnic. This is one of the best days we've had in 2020 :) We had so much fun walking down memory lane, and being able show our daughter where we got married was so special and fun. We even attempted to recreate our wedding kiss photo :)

There is something truly unique about Gorge Crest. It’s such a calm and peaceful environment, the views are magical, and everything about this venue is just breathtaking. We cannot speak highly enough of our experience - our wedding was more than we could have ever dreamed of. Everyone at Gorge Crest was incredible to work with and everything about our day was beyond perfect. Several of our guests to this day still comment how this was the best wedding they have ever been to (even over their own weddings!). We would pick Gorge Crest OVER and OVER and OVER again. We would HIGHLY recommend this venue to anyone looking to get married in the Gorge!

We have so many beautiful memories here and will cherish this location forever. We hope to return again soon!

My wife and I recently made a trip back to Gorge Crest where we were married 5 years prior to have a picnic with our two children and to show them where we were married. Such a great and special place with breathtaking views and well kept grounds that truly inspire people to relax, have fun and take in nature. Jena, the owner, was very gracious to let our family return to the space for a picnic and even came down to wish us a happy anniversary. The venue has am amazing view of Mt. Hood, very cool modern barn-like reception room, a secret wooded area with hammocks, a horseshoe pit and every inch of the space is a photo op. I'd highly recommend the space and even if you go another route for your wedding (or any event really), it's definitely worth making the short drive from Hood River and checking it out.
