Sandy River Getaway, located at 64297 E Brightwood Loop Rd, Brightwood, OR 97011. This serene and secluded venue sits along the picturesque banks of the Sandy River, just outside of Mt. Hood. The property includes four modern cabins, where our wedding party and immediate family will be staying.
For the Welcome Dinner, the dress code is casual and relaxed! Think sundresses, rompers, button-downs, polos, or your favorite summer outfit. Any dress length is welcome. Please wear shoes that can gracefully navigate gravel and flat grass. For the Wedding Day, the groom and groomsmen will wear black tuxes. We invite guests to wear elevated cocktail attire: men in lightweight suits in blues, greens, or light neutrals; women in midi, or maxi dresses in summer colors. Since the ceremony is in the forest and reception on the lawn, please wear block heels, wedges, or flats. We recommend bringing a light layer for the evening.
The welcome dinner on Friday, 6/26 is our first event of the weekend and it is open to all guests. See Schedule page for event details. Please note: Attendance to the Welcome Dinner is required for designated family members and wedding party. Those guests must arrive no later than 4:00 pm on Friday, 6/26 and are welcome to come earlier, as we will have access to the entire property starting Friday morning.
Designated family members and wedding party can stay an extra night on Sunday, 6/28 and say farewells on Monday, 6/29 as we have the cabins booked up until Monday morning at 11 AM. You can also leave Sunday, 6/28 at any time. It is up to you!
We have a limited number of parking spots at the venue. Coordinating rental cars or car pooling is highly recommended.
We respectfully request no children at the reception, allowing all of our guests to enjoy an adults-only evening.
On the wedding day, we'll be serving a barbecue dinner with salads, sides and mains. To drink, there will be an open bar with signature cocktails, beer, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages. Elevated s'mores will be provided later in the evening.
If your invitation did not already include a guest, you are welcome to bring a plus one! Should your originally invited guest be unable to attend, feel free to invite another companion in their place.
