SAVE THE DATE: Portland Parks wedding reservations open for 2025

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — Couples planning to marry in one of Portland’s beautiful public parks can officially set a wedding date for 2025.

Portland Parks & Recreation officially opened its schedule to wedding reservations on Jan. 6. Couples can reserve wedding dates and locations in person at the city’s Customer Service Center at 1120 SW 5th Ave. or online through the park department’s wedding reservation webpage. In-person reservations receive priority over online bookings.

“These lovely settings are the perfect locations for ceremonies and celebrations,” Portland Parks & Recreation announced in a press release.

The City of Portland has more than 200 parks and natural areas available for wedding reservations and receptions. Reservation fees and park capacities are listed in PP&R’s wedding reservation brochure.

Weddings can be held at “wedding gardens” or picnic sites in Portland’s parks. However, PP&R limits its “wedding gardens” to wedding ceremonies. Receptions must be held elsewhere.
