Being that I am a member of the church I didn't have to pay much for it at all. you do have to be Christian to use this church since they insist on having you use their minister and the traditional Christian wedding vows. it is a nice place to have a wedding though. they have a large sanctuary, a reception hall, a big lawn, and a church bell that can be wrung at the wedding!

I was able to get my wedding shoes at Fred Meyer! I didn't want your normal white wedding shoe. I wanted Cinderella Shoes. While I was in Fred Meyer I found Clear heals with rhinestones and silver embellishments that are the perfect Cinderella Shoe. and they were only 30 dollars! now I'm getting all my bride's maid shoes their too since they got in Jellies in adult sizes!

I was able to go into David's bridal when I was looking for my dress and sure I wouldn't find anything that looked good on me. Christine was able to help me find my perfect dress on the third try. They have also been very accommodating with my huge bridal party of six brides maids and a maid of honor.

It's a great place to hold a wedding, they have a piano and an organ. Only thing is you have to use their minister and they discourage using your own vows. They do require premarital counseling with the minister before the wedding.

not a bad price for a caterer and their food is all from the pacific northwest. they have several pictures on their website of what they offer and are very honest about what they can do and what they will charge, up front.

If you aren't picky and are going for something standard or that's in one of their books, your fine, but don't go in thinking you can tell them you want a cascading bouquet with sterling roses and German status because they can't do it. special orders are not their thing. I ended up going with someone else.

Their cheese cakes are good but they don't do wedding cheese cakes. great if you just want a regular sized cheese cake as an alternative dessert for guests though. cakes are around $50 and up a cake.

When I called them up they were rude to me and told me they didn't do cake tasting that if I wanted to know what their cake was like I should just buy one and they said they don't do fondant cakes either.

It's 15 to get in but it's the best show in town! A Portland classic really. I recommend them strongly for any bachelorette party!!!

I was going to go through them for flowers but they do not honor appointments for Saturdays so I ended up using someone else. they only honor consultation appointments on the weekdays. if you make a Saturday appointment, they only have one person there so they may cancel on you. It's a company policy.
