Incredible wedding venue space that ended up being such an upgrade from our original plan. You'll love this space!

My daughter and her husband had their wedding reception here, one year after a small ceremony due to covid. This place speaks for itself - it is right on the Columbia river in Astoria, and is truly a loft with wood beams, beautiful lighting, and rustic wood tables. It was so nice to gain access to the venue the night before, and be able to clean up the next day.

It would have been nice to be aware of a running race that was to start and end in the parking lot, as we had a difficult time gaining access the following day. All in all, it is a great space - you won't be disappointed.

Absolutely wonderful experience here for my wife and I's wedding. Everyone was exceptionally accommodating, and the venue was perfect for all of our needs. Our guests kept commenting how beautiful the location was, and Alix helped us every step of the way. I couldn't recommend The Loft at the Red Building enough.

I was unfortunately a covid bride, however fortunately my venue was The Loft and Briana and Alix were absolutely incredible to work with every step of the way to provide the perfect wedding for my husband and I. Our friends and family were blown away at how beautiful the venue was and how special the day was at The Loft! We had just the most beautiful experience from the first meeting to the big event.

They worked so hard to help guide my vision for the day-I definitely recommend getting the top tier package for an ease of mind with all of the decorations. Both Briana and Alix were so communicative and provided helpful recommendations along the way and made some of the little stresses of wedding planning very manageable. Thank-you!

I had my wedding here, and had nothing but a great experience from start to finish. Briana was great and always responded to me in a timely manner. Overall this venue is worth every penny! Thank you Briana and crew for everything.

We had our wedding here last weekend and it was fantastic. The venue is so gorgeous it doesn't even need decorations (but you can decorate if you want) and the view of the river is amazing. Briana worked with us through the whole process and she was always kind, helpful, and quick to respond. She helped make our day amazing.

The wedding was absolutely everything we dreamed it would be! Alix did an amazing job of keeping me calm and organizing all details! She even got us beer and wine during the night, personal touches to make it extra special! The room was set up beautifully. I highly recommend getting the best package as it takes off so much stress knowing they handle most clean up, set up, and we got Alix the day of to help organize and keep things moving, a wedding planner basically for the day of and leading up to the wedding! Briana was wonderful to deal with, also, but had her baby so Alix kicked it in high gear to make everything awesome. Great team they are! Thank you! Thank you!

The Loft at the Red Building is a gorgeous venue! We recently held our wedding and reception in this space and needless to say, it did not disappoint! Working with the owner, Brianna, was a great experience all around. She was always willing to work with us and ensure that our day was going to be everything we dreamt it to be. The different packages and price points allowed for flexibility and customization to ultimately create the wedding/event of your dreams.

Can't speak of value as we weren't involved in the financial aspect of the event, but it offered a wonderful, trendy event experience. We attended a wedding/reception here and it didn't disappoint. Staff seemed adequate and efficient. Very clean, and trendy upscale. Offers excellent views of the Columbia River from North and West windows. Would definitely consider any future events.

Went here for a wedding. The space was very nice and spacious for a medium-sized affair. The venue provided a nice buffet that was tasty and well-prepared. The only thing that could have been improved was that they do not have the ability to dispense fountain beverages in their upstairs space. The staff was was friendly and attentive.
