Although we’re hoping for a beautiful, sunny Portland afternoon, we can’t always count on that. In case of a downpour, our back-up plan is to move the wedding to the reception ballroom. We’ll try to communicate this if we can on this web page.

Parking is almost always congested. Come early and enjoy the roses. Your best bet is the street running along the Tennis Courts (pictured above) at the entrance to the Japanese Gardens. This road runs north into a residential area with parking. The Rose Garden is behind the Tennis Courts.

We are very excited to have the Portland Estonian Folk Dancers performing a dinner show for us. This group is like family to us and we have been having a blast dancing with them for a few years. Here are pictures when we danced in Estonia

The group also has a wonderful, easy, and very enjoyable lesson where you will learn some simple folk dances. We’ll do this after the reception dinner. It is very easy and you’ll meet the other wedding guests.

The two of us have enjoyed swing dancing for nearly a decade. We woud like to share this with you. A couple days before the wedding we are inviting our non-swing dancing guests to our house. Here we will enjoy your company and teach you very beginning swing. Singles will fit right in as we rotate partners. Feel free to bring something for all to eat or drink.

The ballroom we have selected for our reception will be perfect for dinner, a live swing band, cake, and dancing. It has a wonderful wood floor.

We were able to reserve a small corner of the rose garden for a small wedding with family and a few others. The time and place is mentioned on your invitation. We’ll see everyone at the reception.

The wedding is standing only (except for the musicians). There is plenty of shade, restrooms, several park benches scattered near by, and gift and snack shops.
