Jamie was absolutely the best host! She was so great at communicating even a year out from our wedding. She was extremely flexible and was such a great help the day before guiding us and showing us where everything was located that we would need. Not only is the venue itself a dream, the landscape is absolutely gorgeous and the bridal suites were so fun! Absolutely had my heart on this venue and couldn’t have asked for anywhere else I’d want to have gotten married. -

Justine Sent on 11/23/2024My favorite day!
We got married on 9/14/24 and it was easily one of my top favorite days of my life. Jami (owner) was so easy to work with and was so sweet the moment we met her. I knew I found our venue when she asked me "Have you found your wedding dress yet? You will know when you find our venue by the same feeling when you found your wedding dress." The venue has an outdoor ceremony and indoor reception hall. Jami does a very well job with maintaining her landscaping and all her beautiful plants/flowers on the property. I didn't even need too much decor bc its already so beautiful there! There is a huge lawn/open grass area for photoshoots that give off the PNW look with mountains & trees. We had really great weather the day of, thank God, but the reception can be used for ceremony as an option. We also had a bridal suite on property (Jamis basement) thats been reconstructed and updated, which was very nice to have on site. She just had everything readily available and if we needed anything, she was just a phone call away.
I highly recommend using Maple Leaf Events and work with Jami. We also had a great team that helped us make our special day go smoothly. I have 0 complaints and I think that speaks volume. Our guests also loved the venue and was grateful to have everything on site and not have to transfer after the ceremony to reception (since alot were from out of state). I still get compliments on how everyone enjoyed our wedding. Thank you so much Jami & Kevin for hosting us on our special day! -

Brian Sent on 09/06/2024Best Venue with Outdoor & Indoor Space, On-Site Parking, & Amazing Hosts!
We are so glad we selected Maple Leaf Events as our venue! It’s a beautiful location with stunning views of Red Bluff and the Gorge. We loved how secluded it was from neighbors and that we didn’t have to share it with any other weddings—we had it all to ourselves! The venue offered everything we needed: outdoor space for our ceremony and cocktail hour, a reception hall, groom’s suites, on-site parking, and the option to rent the on-site cabins. We also appreciated the flexibility with no catering or bar requirements, allowing us to choose our own vendors. Jami and Kevin were a pleasure to work with, accommodating and supportive throughout the planning process. We highly recommend Maple Leaf Events Venue! -

Tamra Sent on 08/19/2024Our perfect day
Our wedding at Maple Leaf Events was truly a magical day. The team at Maple Leaf Events was incredibly accommodating, making the planning process a breeze. They were attentive to all our needs and went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect.
One of the standout aspects was their flexibility on allowing us to bring in our own food and beverages as my husband is a chef and this saved us a considerable amount of money.
I stayed in their AIR BND with my Maid of Honor the night before which took stress of traveling the morning of the wedding. I cannot say enough about this perfect venue. -

Carolina Sent on 08/18/2024Love this venue!!
I would highly recommended this venue to every bride out there! Our wedding was in May and this venue is perfect for both indoor/outdoor weddings. The quality and professionalism was perfect, the owners were extremely kind and communicative throughout the whole process. We loved how if we had any questions, they would answer quickly. The suites are so cozy and perfect for both parties, the whole property is made perfectly so all of our photos came out wonderful no matter where it was taken. The price was perfect and within our budget, and true to what's on the website. Highly recommended this beautiful venue! -

Ashley Sent on 11/28/2023Amazing Private Venue
Maple Leaf Events was not only a gorgeous venue for any season but Jami was friendly and so easy to work with. We were able to make payments towards the venue cost and with her flexibility and quick responses to my many questions, we were able to have the wedding of our dreams. I highly recommend this venue to couples who are DIY and planners like myself as you have the flexibility for any vendors vs a lot of venues where you are forced to choose from a list. Overall, I could not have pictured a better place to have our wedding. Thank you again Jami! :) -

Genevieve Sent on 11/25/2023Nicest people we met in the wedding industry
During our search for wedding vendors we visited a lot of Instagram worthy beautiful venues but most of them offered minimal accommodation or required you to spend an extra fortune on food you didnt want in the first place and the ceremony site alone cost half your budget. We were over the moon (pun intended) when we found Maple Leaf, Jami and her husband went above and beyond to make this place look amazing for our August wedding and no you can't see the gorge from the venue but at a fraction of the cost of anywhere nearby you get ceremony and reception, his and hers getting ready suites and some of the nicest people you'll ever work with. They were so accommodating, allowing our rentals to be picked up the next day and letting us come back the following morning to take down decorations, they even let us come back two days later to pick up a ladder that we had to leave there until we were heading out of town because we couldn't fit it in the car with my aunt and uncle when they left town. We also got to select our own caterer, bar tender, bring our own alcohol, put up our own decor. Listen if you want a cookie cutter wedding where you just pick chicken or beef, chocolate or vanilla, then this isn't for you but if you really want to be able to make your wedding your own and bring in all your own elements to your day then this is the venue for you. I highly recommend Maple Leaf Events they've literally been doing weddings for generations. -

Stephanie Sent on 10/21/2023Amazing experience!
We loved everything about Maple Leaf Events. The venue has a beautiful, recently remodeled indoor space with a huge catering kitchen and indoor bathrooms, as well as a fireplace, several French doors opening to the patio area and an entire wall of windows overlooking the mountains and valley. Jami has done an amazing job with the landscaping (our guests were gushing about how beautiful everything was!), with rock retaining walls, tasteful flower beds, ceremony arch on the lawn, and a stone patio with string lights! There is a separate building on the property with get ready rooms- separate bride & groomsmen suites and a “family lounge” with a kitchenette & couches. This venue had everything we needed and checked all of our boxes on our search! Jami was a dream to work with- super friendly, responsive and flexible! She went above & beyond to accommodate any requests we had and checked in frequently to make sure we had all we needed. The venue was by far the easiest part of our wedding planning and we’re so grateful to Jami for all she did to help ❤️❤️ -

D.j. Sent on 10/02/2023Most Breathtaking Venue EVER!
Maple Leaf Events was our first and only venue we looked at and couldn’t have found a better place for our wedding! Jami was amazing, hilarious, and very easy to work with. She was always quick to respond to any questions we had. The venue was so adorable with a lot of personal touch that we immediately fell in love with during our tour. The suites on site were spacious and gave our wedding parties freedom to comingle in the main gathering areas. The AC in the suites was a blessing during our 95 degree wedding day (phew!). Our wedding day was absolutely stunning! We’ve heard from many of our loved ones who attended that it was one of the most beautiful weddings they’ve been to which is largely due to Maple Leaf Events venue and property! See for yourself why this venue has the hype, you won’t want to go elsewhere! -

My wife and I got married at Maple Leaf Events in April 2023 and needless to say the venue was everything we could have wished for an more! Jamie and Kevin were amazing to work with and the grounds at the venue are absolutely beautiful!
Getting married in April you never know what the weather is going to be like and we are so glad that we had flexibility to have our ceremony be either inside or outside!
The bridal suites made getting ready for our big day easy and there was plenty of space for our wedding party and families as well! Thank you Maple Leaf Events for helping to make our big day be the best day of our lives!

Avery Sent on 08/03/2022Amazing Venue!
My husband and I got married at Maple Leaf Events on July 9, 2022. We had had a few pretty bad experiences with difficult venue owners, but were beyond relieved when we met Jami. She answered every email in within hours. She was so kind throughout the whole planning process and was super easy to talk to and get ahold of. Jami and Kevin usually only schedule one wedding per week, so were able to set up for the wedding a day in advance so the wedding day set up was not too chaotic. Jami and Kevin are absolutely amazing, and make this venue even more perfect.
The venue itself is stunning. There are chairs, tables, and other important, items included with the venue. There are dressing rooms for the men and women that we comfortably fit in for the whole day. And this venue has an outdoor ceremony option and an indoor option which greatly reduced my stress in the days leading up to the wedding. Overall, we had the most amazing experience at Maple Leaf Events. We are so grateful for Jami and Kevin who made everything so easy and perfect.

Sarena Sent on 08/02/2022Absolutely perfect venue.
My husband and I got married July, 2 of 2022. We toured this venue back in May of 2021, and Jamie was kind enough to hold a date for us until we could come visit to make a decision. The instant we walked in we knew it was going to be absolutely perfect. Not only is the reception area stunning, the ceremony location is perfect. We didn't feel the need to spend too much on decorations because of how beautiful the location is. One of the best things about this location is the getting ready suites. The area is massive and has everything you need! Jamie and her husband do an amazing job communicating, and really staying hands off so that you can have the perfect day. Another plus is that they only book one wedding a week. Also, there are tables, chairs, vases, and all sorts of goodies to use included in your rental fee. You will not regret booking with Maple Leaf Events! -

Jessica Sent on 10/28/2021The Perfect Place
Maple Leaf Events was the perfect place to have our wedding! Jami and Kevin were always fast to respond with any questions we had and even when there were no showers to be taken she let one of my bridesmaids use it and provided a towel. The venue itself was so clean and had a lot to offer, I like how it was inside and outside usable. Also how convenient it was to have the get ready rooms not even 50 feet from the ceremony!! I would definitely recommend this venue over and over. Nothing bad to say, thank you Jami and Kevin! -

Dawn Sent on 09/20/2021I Could Not Ask For More
When my now husband asked me to marry him it was my dream come true. All I could picture was outside with trees in the background on a summer day and the color purple. We got engaged in 2020 and wanted to get married in 2021(I’d already waited 12 years for this day…Covid wasn’t stopping me). A month after he popped the question we started venue tours. The day we found Jami at Maple Leaf Events, we had gone to a couple other venues but they just didn’t feel right. As soon as we stepped out of the car Jami greeted us with a huge warm welcome and a bright smile. She was happy to be doing the tour in the rain. She showed us everything, and made us feel like we were meant to be married there. As soon as we left I told my husband that I wanted to be her friend and that my heart was sold. We booked our date for July 31, 2021. Throughout the long wait, Jami was super informative on all things Covid and answered this worried brides many questions. The day of was the most magical day ever, even though it was 88 with 100% humidity! Lol we were happy to also stay at the cabins on the property making it super easy to fall into bed after the long day. This place was the best hidden secret that Stevenson, WA has. The views are gorgeous and the grounds are beautiful. I would totally recommend Maple Leaf Events to any wedding party. I wish I could relive this day everyday. -

Sara Sent on 08/02/2021Beautiful venue, incredible owners, and amazing flexibility
For those who want a quick review here are some of my top reasons we appreciated working with Maple Leaf Events (in no particular order):
- Stunning event space with natural beauty of the PNW, and ability to be indoor, outdoor, or both.
- Flexibility with vendors. We were not restricted to a preferred vendor list.
- Reasonable rates with many things included, such as tables and chairs
- Onsite bride/grooms suites for getting ready in the morning.
- The ability to rent a cabin through Airbnb and stay onsite!
- Quick, clear, and friendly communication
- They let our dog be part of the wedding
- FUN owners! We do plan to return some day and stay in Stevenson, and would love to see Jami and Kevin again.
For those that want a bit more detail:
When my husband and I were looking for a place to get married we knew we wanted a venue that captured the natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest. We stumbled across Maple Leaf Events and took a tour pre-covid. The venue itself is stunning, with tons of greenery and breathtaking views. We loved how the indoor and outdoor event spaces flowed together, making the venue truly indoor/outdoor. There are also a lot of amenities included, such as tables, chairs, a bar, and hurricane vases. In addition, there are three cabins onsite that you or your guests can rent - which we knew would be important to us. We were so impressed with the venue, and even more so impressed with the owners. Jami and Kevin are fun, responsive, and flexible. We had a blast with Jami when we toured the venue - she even took pictures of us in the field which we to this day refer to as our "unofficial engagement photos." We only took one day to think about it, and booked with Maple Leaf Events nearly two years before our wedding.
Then, of course, Covid hits. We were left with a lot of unknowns about how it would impact our 2021 wedding. Throughout the entirety of the pandemic Jami and Kevin were great. Anytime I had a question about the venue or Covid protocol they responded quickly and clearly. They even allowed myself, my now husband, and one of my bridesmaids to come tour the venue again as it had been a while since we had visited. Jami and Kevin were committed to working with us by ensuring all our guests remained safe, but that we also had a special day.
Thankfully for us, by the time our June wedding rolled around Washington had lifted many of their restrictions for vaccinated guests. We got to have our plan A wedding which we are so thankful for. Come wedding weekend Jami was the one onsite. Since we were staying on the property, we got to see her multiple times and never felt like she was inaccessible. She was even kind enough to let us use her printer when we needed to print out a last minute guest list! We really appreciated how she went above and beyond for us. Our wedding went off without a hitch, and even our dog got to be part of our special day. We got many compliments from our guests about the venue, and how it was such a hidden treasure!
Working with Maple Leaf Events was an absolute pleasure, and I would recommend them to any couple looking to host a small/medium wedding in the PNW.

Milton Sent on 11/01/2020Our perfect venue
We simply can't say enough good things about Maple Leaf and especially Jami. With 2020 being what it has been, it's so good to have picked the right vendor to guide us through these tough times.
Jami was fast, and I mean lightning-fast, in responding to any questions we had. Furthermore, she went above and beyond to keep us up to date with all the new regulations and to work with us to make our special day happen. With so much uncertainty, we just didn't want to postpone, to then have to postpone again. So Jami worked with us through the whole process.
The venue is exactly what we wanted. Beautiful views of mountains and a great location right by the Columbia River and close enough to wineries in the area. We had amazing weather right before the epic smoke hit, so we lucked out. The bride and groom's rooms were very nice, with ample space and made the experience more relaxing. Due to Covid, we didn't get to use the indoor reception hall, but it's also a very nice place with big windows with views to the outside. There is also tall grass all around which makes for wonderful pictures.
We would recommend this venue to anyone wishing to get married during these times. Not just because of the venue itself, but because Jami is wonderful. From day 1, she just made us feel at ease about this whole stressful process of planning a wedding. -

2020 was quite the year to get married and Jamie took so much of the stress and still made our day perfect! We even booked the venue for the following year to have our reception because it is such a beautiful venue! Very budget friendly while being completely elegant! -

Maple Leaf is amazing! The venue is absolutely stunning! Their gorgeous landscape and views made my minimalist wedding dream possible. And with their on-site Air B&B's it made having a destination wedding easy! What took the cake for us was working with Jami. Her response time was amazing. She always knew the answers, and if she didn't, she knew who did! She did everything in her power to make our special day happen. You will not be disappointed! -

Saying how amazing our experience was with Maple Leaf Events could never be quite expressed with such a word because it was everything and some! Jami and Kevin are such a delight and it was a pleasure working with them in planning our big day! It was the greatest experience I have ever had. They are so understanding, thoughtful and really cared about us through the entire planning process. Our families could not stop going on about how beautiful the area was! They have really put their all in making their venue into the piece of art that it is. It was so beautiful and I can't wait to return for future weddings! -

Maple leaf did everything in their power to make my wedding beautiful, safe, and as stress free as possible in the middle of a global pandemic. Obvious the event ended up being EXTREMELY scaled back, but the grounds and venue were stunning! Beyond that Jamie and Kevin contacted me regularly with updates on WA State regulations and covid protocols. They even offered to let us postpone/reschedule our wedding for a second time (we had postponed once already due to being pregnant), but we felt a small ceremony was preferred to waiting another year.... and they really did everything they could to make it happen for us. -

Five stars is NOT enough to express how amazing Maple Leaf Events is! We were struggling to find something affordable, flexible and beautiful for our big day and thankfully found Maple Leaf! From the start, Jami was very responsive, kind and patient with all of my questions. They were very flexible and SO easy to work with. We were planning our wedding from 2,000 miles away (we live in Hawaii) and I couldn't have asked for a better experience with them. The location is gorgeous (both inside and outside) and all of our guests said it was one of the most beautiful weddings they had ever been to. Go with Maple Leaf - you won't be sorry! -

We had our wedding at Maple Leaf events in September and it was wonderful! Jami and Kevin are so easy to work with and were very flexible with our schedule and planning needs. When we first starting looking for venues last summer, I emailed a bunch of venues asking for quotes and additional information. Jami was the first vendor to get back to me, the same day I emailed her. That pattern of promptness and organization continued throughout our wedding planning process. Jami would always get me the answers I needed right away and was great at coordinating with my other vendors. Our wedding was on a Sunday and Jami and Kevin let us arrange our flowers in the reception hall kitchen, have our rehearsal on site, and do some pre-decorating the day before since there was no wedding booked for that particular Saturday. The venue is really beautiful – you can’t go wrong in the Columbia River Gorge. We took full advantage and ran down to the Stevenson waterfront (5 minutes away) for our first look and got some gorgeous photos! It also had by far the best getting ready area of any other venue we looked at. It rained off and on all day for our wedding and it was great having the flexibility of a reception hall large enough to contain both our ceremony and reception if needed. Luckily, we were able to have the ceremony outside and the rest indoors. We highly recommend booking with Maple Leaf! -
