“Vernonia Springs is THE place! We got married in October 2020 and fortunately had planned on a wedding ceremony with less than 30 people pre-COVID. I had several questions about everything and was constantly emailing Jeff to ask about all the ins and outs. He wrote back quickly, consistently, and professionally. We visited twice beforehand and Jeff was helpful and friendly. He was easy to work with having food trucks come in and pre-approved day before with a couple drop offs. When the big day arrived, the venue was beautiful, had safety protocols in place and we heard several compliments on the atmosphere. The venue is quiet and tucked away with limited cell service, so at the end of the night, when everyone sat around the fire place, it was relaxing and comfortable. My husband and I stayed in one of the yurts and the bed was so comfy! Other guests said they enjoyed their bed and setup as well. Honestly, I have only have great things to say about Vernonia Springs!”

Awarded Best of Zola
“Sara and the team at PMC were fantastic to work with for our wedding. We knew it was the right spot for us as soon as we talked to them. They had great recommendations for vendors (food, cake, etc.) and, obviously, the wine was amazing too. The weather was not what we initially hoped for, but with Sara's help we were able to pivot and make a new plan--which really turned out better than our first plan. Our pictures were beautiful and our guests loved the experience.”
