Vineyard View Celebrations at La Bastide . . .

the art of creating an affordable yet elegant venue but have elevated the entire wedding experience to new heights. From the first venue walkthrough, Diana's warm and professional demeanor made it evident that Vineyard View Celebrations was no ordinary venue. Nestled in the woods of Scotts Mills, the cabin-like home exuded a cozy, country charm, providing the perfect backdrop for an intimate celebration. The vineyard views, particularly during the golden hour, added a touch of enchantment that transformed each sunset at the venue into a romantic, movie-like experience. What sets this venue apart is not just its picturesque setting but the unwavering commitment to turning wedding dreams into reality. Diana's role transcends that of a typical venue owner—she becomes a guiding force, a maternal figure ensuring that every detail aligns seamlessly with the couple's vision. As a wedding planner, witnessing her dedication to not only my clients but to every bride has been a rare and cherished experience. Affordability is a rare find in the world of wedding venues, and Vineyard View Celebrations strikes the perfect balance. The convenience of being located between Portland and Salem makes it accessible, while the secluded charm of Scotts Mills offers an escape into a world of natural beauty. The proximity to historical Silverton and Silver Falls adds an extra layer of allure, creating a backdrop that enhances the overall experience. Vineyard View Celebrations captures the essence of Oregon's rich history and breathtaking landscapes. In my extensive career, Vineyard View Celebrations stands out as the best-kept secret for couples seeking a venue that combines affordability, kindness, and stunning views. Diana and Stu have crafted more than just a venue; they have curated an oasis where dreams are nurtured, moments are painted in golden hues, and every celebration is an unparalleled masterpiece. For wedding planners seeking an exceptional canvas to paint their clients' love stories, Vineyard View Celebrations is hands down the venue!! And for brides that may not know where to start, tour this venue and you will feel at home and know as soon as you arrive that this is the place to have your dream wedding. Thankful that my clients have led me to Diana, I truly cherish her determination, kindness, creative nature and professionalism and every wedding I am so blessed to coordinate here!!

ong planning process, they made us feel like part of their own family, simplifying every step with warmth and expertise. On the day itself, their seamless coordination ensured a stress-free experience amidst the perfect setting. I can’t recommend this venue highly enough.

were envisioning . . . only much better than we could ever have imagined. The scenery is gorgeous and our photos are beyond amazing. But the best part was all the help we got from Diana over the year leading up. She had tips and suggestions and so many decorating ideas -- they were incorporated to make our day at La Bastide with our friends and family incredibly memorable. Book this Venue . . . you'll be glad you did.

were flexible and allowed us to personalize the venue, which meant the world to us. If you are considering this venue, we did have issues finding hotel accommodations for our guests in Silverton (15 minutes from venue), so we made Newberg our home base (45 minutes from venue). That being said, the venue was beautiful, especially the sunset over the rolling hills; our guests commented on the amazing views. We appreciate all Diana and Stu did to make our special day everything we had dreamed of.

er meet. Diana provided helpful tips and vendor lists from the very beginning she made everything so easy

sunset photos. I truly can’t imagine my wedding having taken place any where else.

iful and welcoming. We are so incredibly happy we chose to get married at VVC!

work with. She provided many resources for planning tips. Our guests said the venue was beautiful and the wedding was gorgeous. We were very pleased.

his venue is so stunning. Our guests still talk about it!

much decor and Diana and Stu were so helpful and gracious throughout the entire process! I would highly recommend this space to anyone looking to have a unique and memorable night, I had many folks say how it was one of the best weddings they've been too :) Our hearts are still full! Thank you Diana and Stu for all your efforts and care - it was felt throughout the entire process ❤

. Diana was so sweet and helpful, giving us all the tips and tricks she's learned along the way from other events, and her husband Stu was helpful with setting up and organizing the venue for our wedding day. This place give you a backyard feel that's intimate and relaxing. The sunsets are unreal as well. This venue is off the beaten path, but definitely worth it. Highly, highly recommend.

vailable for all. Handy space out of the guest eyes for catering to conveniently pull up as well. The various locations for pictures is great, and the lighting from 4-8 is ideal. Vineyard view was the first location we looked at, on a pouring day in December, and it was an immediate yes, everything we wanted. Diana was great throughout the process by providing ideas and pictures of what others did, and helping out where she could. Love love love!

lly made us feel taken care of and was extremely helpful and communicative in the lead up to the wedding day. This venue and Diana were everything we asked for and more! All of our guests said how gorgeous and perfect for us the venue was. I cannot wait to see our photos! Ceremony space is absolutely perfect, it felt so natural underneath the large tree on the lawn. Wow! Highly recommend for anyone looking for an outdoor venue in the Willamette Valley.

urally! Thank you!

of tall trees sprinkling shade around this large beautiful landscape for vineyard & rolling PNW hillscape views and just the most perfect sunset on our wedding day. She had dress-rooms for both bride and groom, 2 indoor bathrooms, a kitchen + fridge for our use, covered patio and gorgeous terrace for food service. She provided the arbor and tables and chairs that we barely needed to rent anything. Would highly recommend.

venue to anyone I can!

mpletely unique event because you are allowed to use any vendor that you want to be a part of your special day. Stu and Diana are the venue owners and they are happy to answer any questions that you have along the way to try and help you plan your big day. This venue is was everything we needed to inspire us to create such a special day that we will never forget.

Diana was incredibly helpful leading up to our big day and making sure everything ran smoothly. We will always look back on our wedding day fondly and couldn't imagine a more wonderful setting to tie the knot!

just are unresponsive, however it’s been a tough time trying to get anyone to contact me back to book. I have asked for specific dates and am promised a callback or any email and never receive one. Beware if you get your heart set and hopes up on this venue as did my fiancé and I, you may never hear back from them! - edit : we did hear back from Diana and though our venue has changed, it was still a beautiful venue and I appreciate Diana and Stu’s time.

somehow the stars aligned for us to find Vineyard View Celebrations. Diana immediately responded to our inquiry email with information, maps, a walk-through date, and sweet little side notes that we just loved. We often didn't know what to expect when contacting and meeting with vendors for our LGBTQ+ wedding, but Diana was completely welcoming, kind, and so excited for us to have our wedding at Vineyard View. We loved that we were free to hire the caterers and bartender we wanted, and Diana and Stu worked wonderfully with our day-of coordinator to make everything come together. They even have a good collection of decorative tables and other decor that we used to our advantage! So many of our guests have mentioned how much they loved the beautiful space, and we loved dancing the night away beneath the trees, the cabin, and the string lights. We truly can't say enough good things about our wedding here. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

rk with, and had great suggestions for the wedding day. Our wedding turned out so beautiful at La Bastide!

changing daily, but Diana made sure everything was set and we still were able to have the people attend in a socially distanced manner. Vineyard View is not only a beautiful, private location, but Diana and her husband Stu really go out of their way to help with anything you need. From dinner rehearsal suggestions to suggesting the perfect photography moments. We were able to have the wedding of our dreams at this location due to being able to imagine and create whatever we wanted with no restrictions on vendors or what we envisioned. I even was able to have a baby calf walk down the isle and I will never forget this memory. ❤️ Please don’t hesitate to check out this location. You won’t regret it! Vineyard View is really a top venue for its location, staff, and overall accommodating nature. You can even have a shot of whiskey with Stu before you walk down the isle with your bridesmaid. Priceless pictures and memories.

better than our original venue!). Diana, the owner was quick to respond, extremely kind and accommodating, and very professional. Even in the chaos of relocating our wedding, she made the transition go smoothly, giving us advice and letting us borrow some decor. Located in the foothills of the Cascades, you can't beat the views at Vineyard View Celebrations at La Bastide - it is a photographers dream. You have many options to choose from including the forest, vineyard, fields, and landscaped koi ponds. With a west facing view our golden hour sunset photos turned out incredibly dreamy. Without a doubt we would recommend this venue to anyone!

es were either astronomical or had really strict contracts that didn't quite fit our needs. I found this venue on Google Images, of all places, after searching on all the major wedding databases had failed me. Now that my wedding is over, I can say I highly recommend La Bastide! Diana was a dream to work with. She was so thoughtful and sweet throughout the process. She answered all my questions promptly and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great day. She was like a second mom to me! The venue itself is beautiful and we received lots of compliments from guests. There were so many cute spots for our photographer and our guests to take photos and the grounds are super well maintained. It was a great backdrop for our intimate wedding.

ectations. It is the best place for a wedding if you are looking for an intimate ceremony and reception that reminds you of being in your own backyard ....but way better. The views are stunning and the grounds are meticulously maintained. The best part of the venue is the owner, Diana. She was so friendly and welcoming, and went out of her way to help make our day special.

eel excited and confident in planning our day. From the time we booked to the weekend of our event, the place seemed to look better with every visit. They constructed a cool pergola which made a great bar and viewing area overlooking the vineyard. They also did a ton of landscaping adding flowers along the pathways with lighting everywhere you looked. This venue is very versatile- it has a foresty feel but with vines in the background which made it perfect for the formal touches we added. It was a perfect fit for our guests who loved having the place all to ourselves. I can't imagine going anywhere else for an outdoor event- in Oregon OR California (ours was a Destination Wedding with family and friends flying in from all over to PDX). Best weekend ever!

the personalized appeal of a private estate, this is your place!!! I was a bridesmaid in a wedding held here this summer and I had an amazing time and loved that the owners of the venue had every detail you could think of covered and obviously took such pride in their home. I loved that the wedding felt exclusive and private, with no homes or other buildings in sight, but with the amenities rarely available at a home, like large multi-stall restrooms, plenty of parking and private rooms for the wedding parties to comfortably wait in before the ceremony or between events. We were close enough to downtown Portland to stay and enjoy the city during the wedding weekend but were able to take in the breathtaking scenery of Willamette Valley for the ceremony and reception. The entire wedding went off without a hitch (which I know is not an easy feat!) and I know that that had so much to do with how well organized and capable the venue owners and their team were. Zero critiques from this bridesmaid and former bride!

bilities. When we got married at this special location, it exceeded our every expectation. Countless guests commented to us that it was one of the best weddings they had ever been too. A huge reason was the accommodations of the owners and the ability to customize our day down to the last detail. They allowed us to bring in the perfect vendors that fit our style and price point. Our guests said, not only was it a beautiful ceremony and reception, but that it had a personal touch which made them feel special and welcomed. I couldn't be more satisfied and absolutely thrilled that I selected this venue. P.S. Our pictures are better than amazing!

nded by vineyards, and the event spaces were perfect for the flow of a wedding. Also, having recently gotten married myself, I know how important it is to have a helpful contact at the venue as well as your choice of vendors. The owner, Diana, was beyond amazing and my friend felt so confident in her vendors. It really was the BEST wedding!

the vignette pieces the owners have collected from their global travels and artistic interests...their vast experience and willingness to ensure your day will be magic should put this venue on the top of every list.
