Weed weddings - Saying "High-Do" - KOBI-TV NBC5 / KOTI-TV NBC2

West Linn, Ore. — (KGW) The legalization of marijuana in Oregon has couples considering weed bars at their weddings.

“We were shocked by how much people loved it,” said groom John Elledge of his recent reception. “I’m still getting a couple of texts a day from guests who enjoyed the weed tent.”

Elledge married Whitney Alexander this summer on a West Linn Christmas tree farm.

“On private property where no liquor license is involved, it is legal,” said Mark Pettinger with the Oregon Liquor Control Commission.

However, he added, a caterer with a liquor license cannot legally serve alcohol at an event where marijuana is also being served to guests. “Caterers should be aware there cannot be bartenders and budtenders.”
