Venue Testimonials
We had our sit-down wedding at River's Edge, the view was stunning and had such a beautiful backdrop. We had both our ceremony and reception indoors. The food was incredible quality. We thought everything they put out was restaurant quality and our guests also had many compliments.

A beautiful function room upstairs with amazing views and great staff. The mocktails were delicious.

I recently had my cocktail-style wedding at River’s Edge, a beautiful, modern and minimalist venue. They were super flexible and supportive, accommodating a number of special requests and allowed us to DIY our styling. Many of our family and friends have commented on how wonderful the staff were and how great the food was, not to mention the view!
