Annie & Joe
Things To Do
World Forestry Center: World Forest Institute and Discovery Museum
All guests of our wedding get free admission to the Discovery Museum on Saturday June 1st!
Saucebox
We went on a cute date here, and loved the hand crafted cocktails, and amazing Asian fusion small plates.
Pip's Original Doughnuts & Chai
As a Portland local, I (Annie) would like to tell you there are MANY places to get a good doughnut. This is just one that we've been to. Joe is a doughnut enthusiast, approves this recommendation.
Ground Kontrol
I (Joe) think the Star Wars X-wing simulation game is a rare gem. You can grab a drink, and play tons of games.
International Rose Test Garden
A Portland must see!
Andina
A frequent restaurant of the Kornberg family.
Nong's Khao Man Gai
We haven't been, but we love Chopped, and this chef won an episode so- check it out!
OMSI
Great for kids and adults alike. Go get your science on in Joe's honor.
Elephants Delicatessen
Coffee, sandwiches, cheeses, salad, and a gift shop. What more can you ask for?
Tilikum Crossing
One of a kind bike and pedestrian bridge where cyclists rule the day! A shining example of smartly designed cities. A mecca for any bike/foot commuter. Also, where Joe popped the question. Go check it out!
Lardo
A really yummy sandwich shop. Creative, and very Portland.
Grassa
Hand made pasta. Need I say more?
Coava Coffee Roasters
If you're from out of town, and want to check out Portland's coffee scene, go here!
Pioneer Courthouse/SW 6th Ave MAX Stn
"Portland's Living Room" Lots of shopping, people watching, and things to see around this square. Make sure not to miss the corner of the square with an amphitheater.
Curious Comedy Theater
Annie and her dad are big time fans of this place. Check out an improv show while you're in town!
Cartlandia
Over 30 food carts all grouped together to show you the reason why Portland is the best.
Namu Food Cart
For amazing food, follow this baby wherever it goes.
Mississippi Studios and Bar
A great strip of bars and good places to eat!
Pine Street Market
Like a food court for local restaurants. Check out Salt and Straw's Wiz Bang Bar for good ice cream!
Yataimura Maru
We ate here while exploring Portland. It has amazing food, and to be honest, incredible toilets. You gotta go to know!
Portland Rose Festival
The Rose Festival is (one of) Portland's big celebrations each year. There are rides, games, and on the night of our wedding, a giant parade! That being said- give yourself a little extra time to get into town (or across town) that evening to make it to our wedding in time to parttaayy!
Powell's City of Books
A Portland must see!
McMenamins Crystal Ballroom
Mcmenamins is a restaurant (and concert hall in this case) with a lot of history. A PNW chain that is sure to please pub food.
Oregon Coast
If you're staying a few extra days, head to the coast for a whole different side of Oregon. The closest beach to Portland is only about an hour away! Annie's favorite coastal towns are Lincoln City, Cannon Beach, and if you really want to go for it, Gold Beach.
Petite Provence Boulangerie & Patisserie
Great bakery in an interesting part of town. Go check out the shops with a fancy pastry in hand.
