We are so happy with our choice to have our wedding at Riverside. The entire process was so easy and the venue is gorgeous. I love how the wedding packages include everything from the centerpieces to the food and beverage to the cake! Our whole experience from start to finish was pain free thanks to the team at Riverside.

My husband and I recently had our wedding here-it was amazing! The view is what got us initially, but after our experience with everyone there, the view is just one of the many things that we absolutely loved about Riverside! From the planning process (and countless emails with always a pleasant response) to the day of, every single person we met with was so nice and helpful. Some of my guests keep telling me it is some of the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding-it seriously was so good! I highly recommend checking this place out. You won’t be disappointed!

My husband and I just got married this past weekend and it was, without a doubt, the best day of our lives! Tina and Riverside made everything an absolute breeze. Tina blew us away! The space itself is just gorgeous, but it’s really all of the personal touches that end up taking it over the top. Tina is INCREDIBLE at what she does and made sure that every single detail we wanted was taken care of. When planning such a big event, you almost expect that at least one thing will go wrong. But that moment never came. Everything was truly perfect and went off without a single issue. We were amazed at how incredibly smoothly it all went! So many guests complimented the space, the food, the cake… they loved it all! And it was such a great feeling knowing we went with a place that cared about our big day as much as we did. We absolutely loved everything about Riverside and will be forever grateful for such a beautiful and memorable night.
