My brothers and I could not have asked for a better experience for our mother's memorial service. The space was a great fit for our group of about 125 people - intimate but not crowded, warm and inviting, easy to get to. The CH team was incredibly kind and responsive, and made it as easy as possible for us during a difficult time. We are so grateful to have been able to celebrate our mother in such a lovely space.

This was an amazing venue to get married at! We had about 80-85 guest and it felt so intimate. The space and staff are so wonderful. The space comes with a day of coordinator which was so helpful. Really enjoyed having our wedding here.

Attended an event there recently and it was terrific. The space is remarkable. Very different from many other venues I've seen weddings performed. It's got a very good atmosphere, great acoustics and I like the fact that it's easy to get to in the Alberta Arts District. The staff was friendly and the catering was top notch. A hidden gem!

Beautiful facility for weddings and receptions. Wonderful staff.

Ainsworth House & Gardens Ainsworth House & Gardens Mansion Weddings

It's rare for one venue to endorse another - but CERIMON HOUSE is a great addition (2016) to the options for wedding couples in the Metro Portland Area, offering an urban vibe for small and mid-sized events at remarkably good prices, and without lots of extra charges. We at AINSWORTH HOUSE & GARDENS (Cerimon's Country Cousins, as it were,) are happy to endorse them ~ between us we can offer pretty much anything for the discerning couple on a budget.

We had the pleasure of working an event at the Cerimon House. Their staff and management were terrific to work with, the facility was beautiful, and overall was just a great place for any type of event. Looking forward to being there again soon.
