Mary and Grant's wedding at the Victorian Belle was colorful, relaxed, and full of personality. Scottish kilts, red bridesmaid dresses, plenty of flowers, and a beautiful garden ceremony right outside the historic mansion.Built in 1885, the Victorian Belle is one of those Portland wedding venues that really doesn't need much decorating. The gardens are gorgeous, the house is full of original woodwork, stained glass, and antique furniture, and there's an impressive amount of space for guests to explore.

As a photographer, I particularly love how different each part of the property feels. You can have your ceremony in the garden, dinner outdoors, and portraits among the beautiful historic interiors, all without leaving the venue. Another reason to consider the Victorian Belle is how much they take care of for you. Couples consistently praise the staff, the in-house catering, and how smoothly everything is organized. And honestly, having fewer things to worry about on your wedding day is a pretty big deal.
