Blending urban history and modern design, this 6,200 square foot former warehouse features an open floor plan, polished concrete floors, and white walls ready to adapt to your unique vision. Through large windows, the full downtown cityscape is revealed, centering the White Stag Building’s famous “Portland, Oregon” sign as your backdrop. An airy foyer can play host to cocktail hour, allowing for smooth transitions between ceremony and reception. Two suites are available on-site for wedding parties to prepare – featuring dressing areas, vanities, mini-fridges, lounge furniture and décor. Additional amenities include tables and black chiavari chairs, weekday evening and all-day weekend parking, moveable custom-designed bar, built-in sound booth, tailored lighting packages and wi-fi. The space provides exclusive catering by Vibrant Table Catering & Events, Portland's premier catering company.

Testimonials

"The staff at Exchange Ballroom were excellent throughout the whole wedding process. From the very first meeting, it was clear they were professionals and knew how to plan and execute a wedding in their space. The communication and the various options for the venue and catering made it easy for us to get exactly what we wanted for our day. We had 150 people for our wedding and the ballroom was the perfect size for both ceremony and reception. And you can't beat the backdrop of the city at sunset. All around Exchange Ballroom was a pleasure to work with and their staff helped make our wedding day incredible." – Katie

"I loved having the Exchange Ballroom as our wedding venue! It is in the perfect location, across the river from downtown Portland, and there are incredible views of the city skyline. It is reasonably priced, especially if it is rented on a Friday or Sunday. The staff are attentive, professional, and efficient. There is more than enough parking, especially for big weddings (ours was 170 guests). I highly recommend Exchange Ballroom." – Erin

"Thank you so much for an amazing day. Nick and I agree the day went off perfectly. It was absolutely the day I dreamed of. ……by the way those green rooms are stunning!" - Audrey
