Your wedding venue sets the tone for your entire celebration — and choosing the right one can make all the difference between a stressful day and a magical experience. ✨

✅ Are there weather backup plans?
✅ Can the venue host multiple events?
✅ What are the catering/vendor policies?
✅ Is the venue accessible for all guests?
✅ What are the payment & cancellation terms?
✅ Can we take a full tour?

Whether you're planning an intimate elopement or a grand gathering, asking the right questions ensures your day goes off without a hitch — even if the Oregon weather doesn’t cooperate! ☔☀️

Time to Party
Now that dinner's done and the speeches are over, it's time to really celebrate. This is where your playlist can make or break the energy. You want songs that get people moving – even the groomsman who swears he won't dance.

Shut Up and Dance – Walk the Moon
Uptown Funk – Bruno Mars
Dancing Queen – ABBA
Mr. Brightside – The Killers
September – Earth, Wind & Fire
I Wanna Dance with Somebody – Whitney Houston
Hey Ya! – Outkast
Levitating – Dua Lipa
Yeah! – Usher
Super Freak – Rick James

Mother Dance
This dance is a moment to acknowledge this important person and relationship. It doesn't need to be overly sentimental or traditional. Just choose a song that reflects your connection.

Humble and Kind – Tim McGraw
Simple Man – Lynyrd Skynyrd
Forever Young – Rod Stewart
My Wish – Rascal Flatts
You'll Be in My Heart – Phil Collins

Don't overthink this one. Even 90 seconds of dancing together says everything.

Father Dance
This dance is about honoring the relationships that have shaped you and your partner. At its core, it's about connection and appreciation – whatever that looks like for you.

Isn't She Lovely – Stevie Wonder
Butterfly Kisses – Bob Carlisle
Cinderella – Steven Curtis Chapman
I Loved Her First – Heartland
The Way You Look Tonight – Frank Sinatra
Sweet Child of Mine – cover by Music Travel Love

Whether you both cry or laugh the whole time, just make it yours.

Grand Entrance: Make a Statement
You're married now! Your grand entrance is your chance to start the party. This entrance sets the tone for the rest of the night. So, choose a song that matches your energy and lets everyone know. It's time to celebrate!

Marry You – Bruno Mars
Can't Stop the Feeling – Justin Timberlake
Signed, Sealed, Delivered – Stevie Wonder
Accidentally In Love – Counting Crows
This Will Be (An Everlasting Love) – Natalie Cole
Feel So Close – Calvin Harris
Forever – Chris Brown

The Secret Last Dance
This is something many couples are doing now. After everyone leaves for the send-off, you get one more dance in with no audience. Some replay their first dance song. Others pick something completely different – maybe that weird indie track only they understand.

Whatever you choose, it's your moment to breathe. To look around at the empty dance floor and realize you actually did it.

The Real Talk
When people think back on your wedding day, they're not going to remember whether or not the flowers were perfectly arranged. They'll remember how fun the celebration of your union was. Don’t stress over all of the details on your wedding day, just focus on beginning your life with your partner.

Work With Us
If you're planning your wedding at Ainsworth House, you're already working with a space that keeps the focus on what matters – people, atmosphere, and beautiful moments.

Get in touch today! We’d love to help you create the wedding of your dreams.

Your wedding playlist isn't just background noise. It's the soundtrack to one of the biggest days of your life. Years from now, you'll hear your first dance song and instantly be back in that moment.

First Dance: Set the Tone
Everyone's staring, but the secret is to forget about them for a minute. This song needs to be about you two. Maybe it was the song playing during that road trip where you knew things were getting serious. Maybe you've danced to it barefoot in your kitchen at 2 a.m. Perhaps the words just nail exactly how you feel about each other.

Here are some ideas to kickstart your brainstorm:

Wedding Classics
Sometimes, you can't beat the originals. These songs have been making people fall in love for decades:
At Last – Etta James
Can't Help Falling in Love – Elvis Presley
Can't Take My Eyes Off of You – Frankie Valli
L-O-V-E – Nat King Cole

Modern Romance
Want something that feels more like you? These newer tracks still hit those romantic notes:
Ordinary – Alex Warren
Thinking Out Loud – Ed Sheeran
Beautiful Things – Benson Boone
Lover – Taylor Swift
Beyond – Leon Bridges
Until I Found You – Stephen Sanchez

Country Love Songs
Country music gets love songs that make you feel something:
Forever After All – Luke Combs
From the Ground Up – Dan + Shay
When You Say Nothing At All – Alison Krauss & Union Station
You're Still the One – Shania Twain

Off the Beaten Path
Not everyone wants the obvious choice. Some couples want to dig deeper for more unique song choices:
You Are the Best Thing – Ray LaMontagne
Real Love Baby – Father John Misty
Baby I'm Yours – Arctic Monkeys
Don't Wanna Be Without Ya – Penny & Sparrow

Our biggest tip is to pick a song that actually means something to you two. Not what sounds good on paper.

In our next post, we’ll offer tips for setting the tone for the rest of the party! Stay tuned!

Consider Oregon Weather When Planning Your Wedding

Oregon is a beautiful place to get married! One thing to remember is that timing can make all the difference for your special day. Here's a realistic look at what each season offers to help you pick the right date for your Portland wedding.
Spring (March-May)

April showers really do bring May flowers! Throughout spring, you'll find flowers blossoming all over, but you know the weather is unpredictable. You might luck out with sunshine or end up passing out umbrellas to your guests. A rain plan is essential at this time of year.

Summer (June-Early September)
There's a reason everyone wants to get married in Oregon during summertime. June hits the sweet spot because it's warm enough for outdoor ceremonies without your guests sweating through their clothes. Those long evenings give you perfect lighting for photos and plenty of time to celebrate under the stars.

Fall (Late September-November)
Fall weddings are great for a couple of reasons. First, they offer incredible backdrops as the leaves change colors. Second, cooler temperatures make everything more comfortable, whether inside or out

The best months for a fall wedding in Oregon are late September through mid-October, when the weather is still nice. By November, rain starts rolling in. Weddings in rainy months are still fantastic. You just need solid backup plans for anything outdoors.

Winter (December-February)
Getting married in winter means embracing Oregon's rainy season. While outdoor ceremonies become tricky, winter brings some real advantages. Everyone’s winter rates tend to be more affordable and you may have a better chance of booking your first-choice vendors. Plus, the occasional clear, crisp days with stunning mountain views do happen!

Weather Reality Check
Oregon City's weather can flip without warning any time of year. Instead of obsessing over perfect conditions, build flexibility into your plans:

• Have a rain plan for outdoor ceremonies and receptions.
• Look into clear tent rentals that let natural light in while keeping rain out.
• Provide guests with weather extras (sun parasols in summer, wraps for chilly evenings).
• Rolling with Oregon's occasional rain might make your wedding more memorable.

Ultimately, your Portland wedding will be beautiful regardless of when you hold it. Pick a date that means something to you rather than chasing perfect weather forecasts. With thoughtful planning and a flexible attitude, your day will be fantastic.

Have a Month in Mind? Let’s Make It Official!
Whether you're leaning toward a cozy winter wedding or a sunny September day, Ainsworth House & Gardens is here to help you pull it all together at our beautiful venue!
