Amazing!

Purpoodock Club was so helpful when we ended up in a bind from another venue. Emily was so helpful and always quick to respond. The venue is absolutely gorgeous! We had such a great wedding day thanks to all the people who work here!

An incredible experience! Beautiful venue.

This was truly an amazing experience! From the venue to the staff everything was perfect. Emily Cole and her staff went above and beyond not only for the bride and groom, but for all of their guests as well. The amount of compliments I received from the guests about Emily and the staff was incredible. Emily made this whole experience very easy and comfortable. I would highly recommend Purpoodock as a wedding venue!

Dream Wedding at Purpoodock

Purpoodock Club is the best wedding venue- the staff is outstanding, the food is delicious, the club, the course and the views are beautiful, and the venue cost is reasonable. Emily Cole, the event coordinator, is incredible. She was responsive, organized and so helpful the entire time from when we booked the venue right up to our wedding day.

The best value in the Portland area!

My husband and I had our wedding reception at the Purpoodock Club on October 5, 2019 and it was one of the best decisions we made. The event coordinator, Emily Cole, was so responsive and accommodating from beginning to end. I was able to be so present and relaxed on the day of, knowing she would take care of anything that needed to be done. I trusted her to set up tables and decorations in the space with little to no guidelines and she did an amazing job. We loved having the outdoor deck in addition to the indoor space, especially with the gorgeous fall weather on our day! Our guests raved about the food, drinks and service. We also hired Emily to make a welcome sign and seating chart and they were perfect. We can't say enough and would recommend the Purpoodock to anyone looking for an elegant, but affordable venue with an incredible event coordinator!

The Beautiful Purpoodock Club

My husband and I were married at the Purpoodock Club and it was one of the best decisions of our wedding. Emily, the event coordinator was responsive from beginning to end! We received so many compliments on our menu- the chef at Purpoodock Club is so accommodating and willing to make any adjustment as needed. The Purpoodock Club is very well taken care of and is such a beautiful location for a wedding!

September Wedding & Rehearsal Dinner

We had our September wedding and rehearsal dinner at Purpoodock, and worked with Emily Cole, their events coordinator throughout the planning process for both. The venue is gorgeous and versatile, and Emily was amazing to work with! She was always prompt and thorough, and when I had ordered WAY too many flowers, she did such a beautiful job scattering them throughout the space and really making it beautiful. My (now!) husband and I agree that working with her was a highlight of the whole process, as everything came together so seamlessly, and exactly the way we wanted it. Purpoodock itself is beautiful, with a lot of options for portraits, and the deck was perfect for an intimate, sunny ceremony. Also: their food is amazing, and friends raved about it. We can't say enough good about our experience, and will recommend it to everyone!

Extremely good value! Beautiful venue.

We were absolutely blown away by our beautiful wedding at purpoodock. Emily the coordinator was wonderful to work with. She helped us every step of the way and is extremely professional. She did an excellent job decorating both our ceremony and reception space. She was aware of every detail and helped out any way she could (including picking sticks out of my dress after the first look haha).

The food at purpoodock was delicious - our guests were raving about it the whole night! They were also able to accommodate gluten free dishes. Emily had a plate of apps brought to our bridal room so I could eat while they were doing my bustle.

We strongly recommend purpoodock ... they were worth every penny!

We just got married here July 7. Everything was amazing!! The food was great... the deck was great to get married on and play games during happy hour. So many places to take beautiful photos. Emily the coordinator was the best! She was always there when I had a question and made the day go smoothly. Everything started on time! Definitely recommend this venue to any bride!!!

Emily was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was invested in our planning from the start and a true calming influence as we planned from a distance. Thanks to her, our wedding day was exactly as we had envisioned! Our guests and families also commented on how accommodating and friendly she was! The entire staff was wonderful. The food was INCREDIBLE - even better than we expected after our tasting. The venue was perfect for our summer wedding - bright, simple and elegant. We would highly recommend this venue to anyone.

Our experience at Purpoodock Club was 5 Star in every way possible. We arranged a lot of the finer details over the phone/facetime/email as both of us were out of the State while trying to plan (in my case - not even living in the country yet). Emily, the event co-ordinator was ALWAYS super accommodating and helpful! We changed the number of guests and the types of appetisers we wanted a number of times, nothing ever seemed too much trouble she was really wonderful! When it came to the wedding day and the days leading up to it - the staff were so attentive and set everything up exactly as we'd envisioned. In terms of value for money - we really couldn't have asked for more! It was affordable but also classy and elegant. Thank you so much for everything Emily & Team at Purpoodock! I HIGHLY recommend the venue.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
