From the reviews
Stone Arch at Riverview Gardens was the perfect venue for our September wedding. Their event staff was really friendly and helpful, answering numerous questions via phone and Email throughout the process.
We had our wedding on 10/4/19 and we loved it! Sandy, the venue coordinator, took care of every request, no matter how big or small. She answered all our questions along the way and was a pleasure to work with. We were fortunate the weather cooperated for an outdoor ceremony and it was beautiful.
A classic and beautiful location for a wedding! We have been covering weddings at this location for over 15 years. It is a PRIME SPOT! Plenty of parking, friendly staff and great food. There is a breathtaking ballroom for dinner and dancing and a old school library style parlor for relaxing and enjoying a cocktail.
Attended a wedding and reception. It was a pleasant day and the ceremony was outside. It was a very nice venue. The bar, lounge area and dining room were all quite nice and efficient. The food and service were quite good. The event seemed well organized and well executed. All in all, it was an excellent day.
Getting married at Riverview Gardens
Riverview Gardens comes up for weddings, going by their listing and couples’ reviews. Two things make the tour worth it. First, see the garden at the time of day and season you'd actually get married — a garden that glows at golden hour in June can look very different at noon in March, so ask what's in bloom for your date and walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move, and does it hold everyone?), shade and bugs for a summer afternoon, the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular garden dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
