Skamania Lodge

About

The Columbia River Gorge does the decorating at this 175-acre resort in Stevenson, Washington, where ceremony sites range from intimate outdoor settings to a full ballroom. Skamania Lodge frames its wedding business around flexibility of scale, stating it hosts everything from 30 loved ones to grand receptions of up to 300 guests, and it explicitly offers an intimate outdoor ceremony format alongside sophisticated ballroom celebrations and cozy winter weddings, which puts the lower end of its range squarely in micro-wedding territory. Wedding packages carry a substantial built-in inclusions list: ceremony and reception tables and chairs, white or ivory house linens, a custom dance floor, china service and votive candles, cake cutting and service, a champagne toast, a non-alcoholic beverage station, an hour of ceremony rehearsal, a complimentary forest-view king guestroom, and an on-site catering manager to run logistics. Catering is handled by the lodge's own culinary team, described as fresh Northwest cuisine, with plated dinners and buffets both available. Because this is a destination resort, lodging is part of the pitch, with rooms plus glamping, treehouses, and cabins for wedding parties that want to make a weekend of it, 45 minutes from Portland and about 3.5 hours from Seattle. Package pricing is published in a downloadable PDF rather than on the page, so couples should request current figures.
