In other news:
Broetje House is officially closed as a wedding venue. East Fork Estate is no longer in business.
View Point Inn is closed until February 14th. There was rumor that they had closed down completely but considering they were in the Bridal Show, Bride Magazine and on a billboard recently, I think that the announcement may have been a little premature.
Abernethy Center will be adding an exciting element to their wedding venue and complex.
A historic replica wedding chapel with bell tower and all, that will seat 155 guests and have a full daylight basement, will be constructed this year. October is the projected completion date.
Ainsworth House has begun an expansion project to their conservatory. This will allow for more indoor seating in their beautiful venue.
All About I Do wedding services and accessories is gearing up to open an Oregon City store this Spring. Stay tuned for more news of that!
Weatherfords Grand Lodge and Ballroom has been updating and refurbishing the Bridal room upstairs. A new event coordinator is hard at work making Weatherford's a wonderful wedding venue option for brides.
Wedding Wire has announced the 2010 Bride’s Choice Awards. Congratulations to so many of our vendors who have received this honor!
The Gala meeting is scheduled for February 9th at 4pm in the fireside room of The Governor Hotel. If you are interested in being on a committee for this event, please plan to attend this meeting. Committees are for promotions, charity, décor, food, sponsorships, advertising, entertainment and more. The 2010 Portland Gala was a huge success and we look forward to the 2011 Gala to celebrate with the entire Portland area wedding professionals of each Networking group.
