We eagerly and enthusiastically recommend Ironlight to our couples who are seeking a modern space with a seamless experience. The venue quickly sells itself as you step off the elevator and into the 180 degree view of downtown Lake Oswego. To have the option of an outdoor experience with a reliable (and stunning) indoor space is a gift in Oregon with our sometimes unpredictable weather conditions. We have found this to be a special place that couples may celebrate their best day ever with the ease of so many inclusions already in house. And more importantly, the experience and care from the staff is really sincere as well. They really strive to support the best interest of the couple and have always helped us to keep their experience at the helm. We do a little 'happy dance' when we get the news that we get the opportunity to work with them and care for a couple together! :)

They were clear regarding what we would receive and were the most helpful in making sure I’d be able to do what I wanted for my day! I live hours away from the venue, so communication was important for me and they delivered! The amount of money I spent was very reasonable, I definitely feel like I got the most bang for my buck! I could not give higher praise to any venue more than I would them. I recommend booking here every time. 10/10!

Holocene is a unique venue for weddings and receptions — a soaring, modern space with a clean, contemporary mood, endless flexibility, a full-range of amenities, and a dedicated staff. The lofty white spaces, big windows, warm wood, and cozy lighting provide a great backdrop — the space looks wonderful with just a few brought flowers, or can harmonize with a more elaborate scheme. The distinct areas of the space let Holocene work perfectly as a combination ceremony and reception venue, in any season. We have a stable of excellent caterers, floral designers, rental companies, DJs, and musicians to recommend, or, you’re very welcome to bring your own. We have a big stage (and amazing sound system), a DJ booth (and gear, and moving lights and video and haze), a photobooth, dressing rooms, a kitchen and gorgeous full bar (with slushies cocktails, great draft beers…) — all included in the rental. Please get in touch if you’d like to discuss possibilities - including live streaming events!
