Hotel
The wedding is taking place at the beautiful Columbia Gorge Hotel & Spa in Oregon's Columbia River Gorge, in a town called Hood River right on the border between Oregon and Washington. The hotel only has 42 rooms, and it's our goal to fill them up ENTIRELY with our people! We HIGHLY recommend staying at the hotel at least for the night of the wedding itself. There's a highway from Portland to the Gorge that will be your road to and from the hotel, and we'd love the assurance that most of our guests aren't driving down it in the dark after a night of festivities. MORE IMPORTANTLY: THERE IS NO UBER OR LYFT IN HOOD RIVER. Please plan accordingly! Find friends to carpool with! Here's what the hotel said about reserving rooms from our block: "Individuals MUST call to make reservations directly with the hotel's Reservations Desk. They need to identify themselves with the Bennett-Casselle room block in order to receive the agreed-upon rate and room types. Guests may call us anytime at 1.800.345.1921 to secure their reservation. Reservations for rooms in your block cannot be placed online." The deadline for booking a room at the hotel is April 19, 2025, though we recommend not going that long before booking yours up!
