A Styled Wedding at a new Oregon Wedding Venue: The Preserve in McMinnville, Oregon

Oregon is home to some of the most breathtaking wedding venues, from rustic barns to elegant estates. As a wedding photographer, I’m always drawn to venues with character, rich history, and a strong connection to nature. So when I heard about The Preserve in McMinnville, Oregon, I knew I had to see it for myself!


This newly renovated, 100-year-old historic manor has been lovingly restored by Lillian and her team, transforming it into a truly magical wedding venue. The interior offers an intimate setting for events with up to 60 guests, while the brand-new tent and stunning outdoor spaces can accommodate up to 225 guests—making it perfect for both small gatherings and grand celebrations.


I was thrilled when Lauren and Meghan from Lemonseed Events invited me to photograph a styled wedding shoot at The Preserve. To make it even more exciting, the talented Caroline Reusen provided the most breathtaking florals, and Nikki’s stunning wedding gown, designed by Vouture, was the perfect fit for the venue’s classic colonial style.


If you're dreaming of an elegant Oregon wedding venue with historic charm and picturesque outdoor spaces, The Preserve in McMinnville is a must-see! Scroll through these images to envision what your special day could look like at this incredible location.
