Why we love this venue

There’s something about Amaterra Winery that makes every wedding here feel like a scene out of a dream. The architecture? Modern and gorgeous, with clean lines that give photos that magazine-worthy look. And the view? Don’t even get us started. The terrace overlooks the Willamette Valley, which means every sunset turns into a perfect backdrop for portraits. As a photo/video team, we love how the natural light floods the indoor spaces through massive windows—it’s like having a built-in softbox all day long. Plus, the vibe here is so relaxed and welcoming, it’s the kind of place where everyone feels like they can let loose and celebrate.
