    We were nothing short of satisfied with our entire experience getting married at PCS. The venue itself is stunning, and the 2 floors allow for natural transitions between ceremony, dinner, and dancing. Venue coordinators were responsive and incredibly helpful with all our prep needs pre-wedding and the day of. I highly recommend the venue!

    Portland Center Stage is a place not to be overlooked. The staff went above and beyond and were incredibly helpful through the entire experience. They made recommendations and let me customize to my hearts content! They were clear regarding what we would receive and were the most helpful in making sure I’d be able to do what I wanted for my day! I live hours away from the venue, so communication was important for me and they delivered! The amount of money I spent was very reasonable, I definitely feel like I got the most bang for my buck! I could not give higher praise to any venue more than I would them. I recommend booking here every time. 10/10!
