About
On WeddingWire since 2014
A home built for love, weddings, celebrations, and joyous new beginnings that have stood the test time. The historic Victorian Belle Mansion in Portland, OR was built in 1885 as a gift from David Cole to his wife, Amanda. A century later, the mansion has been lovingly restored and now serves as one of Portland’s most enchanting wedding and event venues. Located just 10 minutes from downtown, the mansion is a complete package, with historic décor indoors, and lush, expansive gardens outdoors, as well as exceptional service. This charming piece of history offers the warmth of a private estate without the worry of endless details. When you host your event at the Victorian Belle, every element, from the meticulously manicured 2.5 acres to the delectable cuisine, is unsurpassed.
We believe true hospitality is defined by inclusion and we welcome your diversity.

The Victorian Belle is highly praised by reviewers for its beautiful grounds, accommodating staff, and delicious food. The venue provided a magical atmosphere for weddings, with guests enjoying the relaxed vibe, private setting, and ability to roam the full house and gazebo.

The venue\'s inclusion of food with the reception simplified the planning process, and guests were impressed by the professionalism and helpfulness of the team, particularly mentioning staff members like Kylie. Overall, the Victorian Belle is recommended for its picturesque setting, exceptional service, and value for money.
Dream come true!
Highly recommend!
Everyone at Victorian Belle were also great at helping our guests stay cool during an unexpected heat wave during our wedding. There was plenty of shade and they set up misters and fans. Although the wedding itself was all outside and under covered tents and gazebos, our guests were able to go into the mansion to cool off in AC.
I would highly recommend this venue to anyone planning a wedding. I will also be looking at their event calendar moving forward for the different High Teas and performances they offer the other times of the year.
Dream day at the Victorian Belle
We had 130 guests and it felt like a good number for the venue; everyone fit in the dinner tent well. The venue feels very private and it was great that guests could roam the full house, lawn, and gazebo. The vibe is so relaxed -- looking out and seeing everyone dancing in the gazebo, playing croquet, or just sitting and chatting gave the day a magical atmosphere.
The staff was flexible and happy to accommodate our whims -- a cocktail hour before the ceremony, a jazz band, a trumpet player on the balcony, and the Pip's Donuts truck in the alley. The food was delicious and accommodated a range of dietary needs. We enjoyed all of our choices of vegetable pasta, salmon, caesar salad, and mushroom risotto. We also tried vegan options at our tasting and they were fantastic. Drinks (margaritas, berry mocktail, wine + beer) were great as well.
Finally, while we had lovely weather, having full rain and heat alternatives (including AC in the house) was also huge relief during the planning process.
Thank you to the staff at the Belle for such a wonderful wedding day!
