Day 30 of 30: Urban Studio
There are many styles of venues and I feel as though Urban Studio is in a category of their own. The walls move, the furniture moves, it’s able to be modified to create whatever you envision! Get to know Via, Urban Studio and a little about Pearl Catering here…
Champagne: What size of groups can Urban Studio accommodate?
Via: We can accommodate 200 people for a seated event, and up to 300 people for a stand-up/cocktail style reception.
Champagne: What do you think is unique about the space at Urban Studio?
Via: What’s unique about Urban Studio is that there is no other space like this in Portland. Located in the heart of the Pearl District, with soaring windows, a roll-up door, and boasting a modern yet industrial chic style. It’s a blank canvas that can be transformed into an elaborate, elegant wedding - or a simple, very sophisticated and urban wedding. Overlooking the main floor is our Bridal Loft used by the bridal party to get ready at, by photographers to catch some priceless birds’ eye view shots, and by the bride & groom to escape to share a moment together.
Champagne: Tell us more about Pearl Catering and how it’s related to Urban Studio—is it the exclusive caterer there?
Via: Pearl Catering is our exclusive caterer. Formally known as Be Zinful Catering, Pearl Catering has been creating mouth-watering dishes in Portland since 2001. We use only local ingredients and work with local farmers to bring the freshest taste to each bite. Executive Chef Kevin Kennedy has 20+ years in the culinary world, and brings a very creative touch to everything he does. Not matter what type of event it is, Pearl Catering aims to exceed your expectations!
Champagne: What is one of your most favorite things about Portland, or favorite things to do here?
Via: How do I narrow it down? The people. People watching. Exploring this town on foot. Portlanders and their unique style - anything goes! Food carts. Live music. First Thursday. Last Thursday. Riding bikes. Farmer’s markets. The Pearl District. Street performers. Beer festivals. Window shopping on Mississippi, meandering around NW 23rd. Happy hours. Sitting outside on a patio in the summer. And the list goes on….
Champagne: So since you’re not married—we have to ask! What would YOUR dream wedding look like?
Via: Oh this will be fun to answer. Should I pretend like I’ve never thought about this before? haha! My dream wedding would be incredibly beautiful, in the most simple way. Sayulita, Mexico. On the beach. Intimate. 40 of our closest family members and friends. Barefoot. My bridesmaids would wear whatever dresses they want to wear. Short ceremony. Long lasting party. Unlimited photos. Live music. Incredible food, tapas style. Embarrassing speeches. A week long celebration spent in the sun, on the beach with all of my favorite people. It’s about him and I - being where we love to be and who we love to be with.
Champagne: Anything else you think people should know about Urban Studio?
Via: The rental fee is waived at Urban Studio when a food/beverage minimum is met! Contact me for more information [503.860.0526, .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)]. Also, while Pearl Catering is the exclusive caterer at Urban Studio, we also do off-site catering at other venues - for any type of event, whether it’s a private party for 50 or a corporate event for 500.
