We booked Persimmon Country Club for our wedding in September 2016 and could not have been happier with how everything turned out! From coordinating with Jayde before the wedding, to the day of, everything was smooth and all of the staff were amazing to work with. My husband and I had a vision for our wedding of "country chic.” Jayde and the staff at Persimmon helped that vision come to light. From allowing us to come in early the week before our wedding to hang lights from the ceiling, driving us around the golf course to choose photography locations, we could not have asked for a better experience. I myself have a number of severe food allergies; Jayde took the time to work with the chef at Persimmon to make a personalized menu so that I would be able to have a special meal on our big day.

My husband and I had a six month engagement. To some it might seem impossible to plan a wedding in such a short amount of time but with the staff at Persimmon it was a breeze. Jayde and the staff worked with our vendors to coordinate day of arrangements, which took the stress off of my husband and I. She was open to all of our ideas and turned them into realities. Thanks to Persimmon Country Club, our wedding day was more than we ever dreamt it could be.

We booked Persimmon for our wedding in August 2016 for the AMAZING view. Little did we know but we would be getting much much more. I don't have enough words to describe how impressed and happy I am with Persimmon for our wedding. They met every single one of our requests... and there were ALOT. We had a large wedding consisting of 275 guests but Jayde, Kyle and the staff made sure to accommodate each and every one of our guests. They made sure our elderly guests were able to get around easily; made many special meal requests for our elderly, children, vegetarian, and lactose intolerant guests; and even put together an entire inventory list for their supply closet that they allowed us to use. We had so many guests comment on how well they were treated and how they felt much more welcomed than any other country club they had been to.
The menu and package flexibility was phenomenal. They have so many options to work with our budget and made sure we got everything we wanted. The food was awesome, use of their massive supply closet was so helpful, and use of their dance floor and wedding arc were all very affordable. We knew we were in the right hands when we showed up at an early 7am in the morning and our bridal suite was completely decked out!
Now about Jayde Hall the Persimmon coordinator. We had a long 2 year engagement and Jayde worked with us all throughout that time to make sure every single detail we thought of was carried out. Jayde truly touched our hearts. She not only was efficient, attentive and caring but she treated us as if we were family. I truly don't think our wedding would have been the same without Jayde.

We recently held a wedding ceremony and reception at Persimmon Country Club for our daughter in July,2016.
Persimmon has so many wonderful qualities about it and their menu options are incredible and there is a very good sized decor closet which is included in the price that you can use if you choose! Jayde, the wedding coordinator, helps you with every detail and truly makes you feel welcome & makes all your concerns melt away. She is on top of everything. Jaydes one-on-one time before hand is what made this wedding day a huge success! The staff as well is a great group of people to work with. Any concerns we addressed were tended to right away and done professionally and with a smile!
The ceremony sight itself has the most beautiful panoramic view including a fantastic view of Mt. Hood. This venue is very pristine and the landscape is beautiful as well as breathtaking. We had an outdoor ceremony on the edge of a beautiful section of the golf course. The bride & groom had a private golf cart ride with their photographer where there are even more beautiful and breathtaking areas for photo options....It was more than we had ever imagined!
The comparison shopping for venues in regard to not only Persimmon being the best pricing, but also ALL the options that were included and not at an additional cost, whereas other venues had just about an add'l cost for almost everything. Persimmon has a wonderful assortment of menu options. We chose a brunch, with the most wonderful foods on the buffet. We even had a wonderful pasta buffet at the rehearsal luncheon. We were also able to incorporate gluten free and vegetarian options. The chef was incredible!
Persimmon Country club is a top notch and top choice venue for the most wonderful, beautiful and gorgeous wedding ever! My husband and I are very thankful for the choice in venue and highly recommend others to check it out and choose Persimmon for their next wedding event!

I cannot even begin to express my gratitude to Jayde, Kyle, and all of the staff at Persimmon! We got married in April, in Oregon, meaning the weather cannot be trusted! The day of the wedding there were scattered showers, but Jayde let us wait as long as possible before making the final decision about where to have the ceremony. And when we decided to have it outside, the staff had towels out and ready to dry the seats and try to make the experience as comfortable as possible for us and our guests. Miraculously, the rain stopped just as the ceremony began!

When we were considering Persimmon, Jayde met with us and made things easy and transparent. We could tell she really cared about our experience, not just about making a profit. She allowed us to use the venue's existing decorations left from passed events, she let us use their projector and screen with no extra charge, she was available at anytime to meet and/or chat with us about details, she planned a personal tasting session with us and allowed us to modify our menu options, she took notes to ensure the reception and ceremony were set up exactly how we wanted.... really, the wedding was extremely smooth and beautiful, very much thanks to Jayde and her staff. We could not have done it without her.

Persimmon is beautiful, the food is delicious, and the service is top-notch. My husband and I VERY HIGHLY this venue for a wedding, and for any other event that you want to be a huge success :)

I have one word for Julie, AMAZING! Of all the venues we have looked at, Julie has been the most accommodating coordinator so far. She is very attentive to detail and is very enthusiastic about her work. Since the first day we met her, she has been very helpful in our planning process with her creative ideas and willingness to help in every department! When I came in to see Persimmon for the first time, Julie knew I wanted a wedding reception that was completely outside. When she showed me the banquet hall they have, I was blown away with their deck and the gorgeous view. Julie was never pushy, she gave me many options to work with. In the end, I found another venue that was completely outdoor. However, if anyone is looking for a wedding venue that is indoor, THIS IS THE PLACE:)

Thank you Julie,

Vadim and Natalie

AH-MAZING.

My husband and I eloped to Hawaii on a budget and came back looking for a place to have a place to celebrate. We were so frustrated to call venue after venue, only to find that we would basically be paying for an entire wedding! From the first phone call with Julie Weiss at Persimmon, I was BLOWN AWAY by how accommodating and helpful she was. Julie and her awesome team worked tirelessly with my husband and me, planned the perfect menu (which was delish, by the way!), navigated through all of the details and our OCD ways - and we were a LITTLE high maintenance ;o) - and helped to ensure we had the PERFECT EVENT.

The best part of our day? The full moon over the mountain that night! It was simply breathtaking, and I couldn't have scripted it better. Our friends and family will be talking about this venue and our reception for years to come!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Becerra Photography Becerra Photography Wedding Photographers

Persimmon Country Club is a fantastic wedding venue and offers so many great locations for beautiful, scenic pictures. Many golf clubs no longer allow the bride and groom to take pictures on the course, but Persimmon Country Club provides a driver to drive the bride and groom where the best lighting occurs. I took one of my most favorite pictures at Persimmon when a rainbow appeared over the couple during the ceremony with their epic view in the background. The staff is great and always ready to go the extra mile. Highly recommended!
