A Chateau de Harpe Wedding

Chateau de Harpe is the most gorgeous wedding venue nestled in the hills of West Linn, Oregon. It’s a custom-built chateau inspired by French architecture and is truly a one-of-a-kind venue. Haley & Justin leaned into the beauty of this venue and their love of magic & Disney and envisioned the most whimsical, fairy tale wedding. Not to mention, they themselves are the most wonderful humans. Their love is so sweet and tender, and they made sure they found time to celebrate their day together with quiet alone moments AND with the loud crazy joy that their friends and family brought to the day. And they didn’t forget the details either!! Their day was filled with pearls and gold, a princess gown, a dreamy castle backdrop for their vows, and a t-shirt party to end it all off, after which we promptly frolicked off into the sunset (literally) and I don’t know that they could have made it any more unique and true to them!! 

 Why Choose the Chateau de Harpe as Your Wedding Venue?

This venue is situated on 68 acres, just a short 30-minute drive from downtown Portland. It’s the perfect escape for couples who want a serene backdrop without the hassle of a long commute for themselves or their guests on their wedding day. This venue is a dream for couples who love architecture, castles, and seamless design. With this venue, you have the freedom to get creative with all their unique spaces, without having to bring in a lot of outside decor! It’s the dream location for couples seeking a unique experience.

Spaces at the Chateau de Harpe: 

  1. Front Courtyard: The courtyard is the main outdoor event space which spans 45 feet by 100 feet
  2. The Terrace: This location is perfect for that first look before the ceremony or an intimate ceremony space! Also a great location to take portraits! 
  3. The Suite: The getting-ready space is out of a dream! A claw tub, full shower, and enough space for a large wedding party! So many venues lack this aspect, and if you want a venue that covers the getting ready portion of your day- this one is it!!
