About

Resting upon the majestic slopes of Mt.Hood National Forest, Timberline Lodge a storied venue welcoming weddings in Government Camp, Oregon. The lodge is a truly unique offering whose distinct design is equaled only by the unparalleled mountain views which encircle it. Its adjoining ski-slopes propose a weekend get-away for couples who desire a wedding celebration that combines elegance and natural beauty with a sense of adventure.

Facilities and Capacity

Dedicated by President Franklin. D. Roosevelt in 1937, Timberline Lodge is an Oregonian icon and national historic landmark. The building’s hexagonal facade has starred on the silver screen and was designed to be harmonious with its environment, utilizing boulders from the surrounding area. Inside couples will find an artisanal interior, with handcrafted details such as carved wooden paneling, murals, and glass mosaics throughout. The lodge hosts numerous venues congenial to a spectacular wedding celebration. Couples can exchange vows in the grounds’ amphitheater, surrounded by stunning vistas and the scent of blooming wildflowers. As the sun dips beneath the crests of the far off mountains, the wedding party can retreat to the warm comfort of the Ullman Hall. This spacious setting can accommodate up to 180 loved ones and features bespoke lighting fixtures, wide windows, and an adjoining patio. Elsewhere in the lodge, the Raven’s Nest provides an exceptional indoor ceremony site. Its vaulted wooden ceiling creates a sense of space that is filled by natural light shining down from its expansive windows. The effect is at once light and airy, yet also warm and personal. Couples planning an intimate ceremony may wish to avail of the separate Silcox Hut, located a mile further up the mountain. The lodge’s most popular venue, the hut is a private retreat whose confines are rendered cozy by warm timber framing and exposed stonework. Guests can relax next to the roaring fire of the hearth, and listen to the snow whip at the windows without. There are many more options available for weddings of all scales, and the property can provide furniture rental for events.

Services Offered

Timberline Lodge’s staff offers a range of services designed to ensure guests have a memorable wedding celebration. These services are organized into packages which include a ceremony site and reception hall. The staff is happy to help set up and clean up your event and welcome outside vendors. The food and beverage team proposes couples catering services including buffet-style dining and a fully staffed bar. There are several restaurants on the premises serving locally-sourced fare, and even a glacier-fed microbrewery.

I highly recommend!

My daughter and her husband wanted to have a wedding in Nature, and also to have the site take care of most of the details. Timberline was the answer! The Jubilation Package met our needs for the wedding of under 25 people, due to Covid-19 restrictions. Tammy, the manager, was very responsive, flexible, friendly but always professional. It was a beautiful day to have the wedding outside and the reception inside, with large windows to see the mountains and the sunset. During these stressful times, we managed to have a wedding that met and even exceeded my daughter's expectations.

Fantastic wedding experience!

My wife and I had our wedding at Timberline Lodge and it was fantastic. The venue was gorgeous! The room we stayed in was very comfortable and had a beautiful cozy fireplace. We even got a little dessert delivered to our room every night! The staff were all very friendly and helpful and they were always willing to answer any of our questions while we were planning the event. They were also very open to accomodations and special requestions, such as dietary restrictions or specific religious/cultural ceremonies. We would definitely recommend Timberline and are looking forward to returning there in the future!

Perfection!

Timberline was an absolute dream of a wedding venue! We got married in January with Timberline's Jubilation Package and it was so easy and wonderful. We were in the Raven's Nest for the rehearsal, ceremony and reception (we had a small wedding - around 40 people), and it was the most beautiful winter venue we could have imagined.
It was so easy working and planning the wedding with Timberline, and they really went above and beyond helping us make the day perfect. They helped us build an all-vegetarian menu, set up our own music, store our flowers overnight, and so much more. We especially loved that Timberline offers an all-inclusive package. It was so nice to not have to worry about organizing multiple vendors, and they offer exceptional service so it doesn't feel like compromising at all. The food and drinks for the reception were top notch!
I would recommend Timberline to absolutely everyone! The ease of planning, beauty of the venue, and incredible accommodations made our wedding so unforgettable.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
