From the reviews

I had my wedding at Riverwood in April 2022, and it was a wonderful experience! Absolutely beautiful property so convenient to downtown Nashville, with incredible staff and service.

★★★★★ — Colleen, Jul 2022

From touring the venue to the planning process to the big day, the Riverwood team was the best group to work with. The team was always prompt to respond to my many emails and questions, even when our day-of-coordinator was out. We wanted our family and friends to be able to show up and enjoy the day.

★★★★★ — Hannah, Sep 2024

This is long overdue. I've been photographing weddings at Riverwood Mansion for 10 YEARS! If you are looking for a wedding venue that has IT ALL, look no further.

★★★★★ — Melanie, Mar 2024

Our daughter was married at Riverwood Mansion in June and it was the perfect experience! All week was beautiful, however thunderstorms were in the forecast for her wedding time so the staff immediately went to plan B , moving the seating in the main parlor.

Getting married at Riverwood Mansion

Riverwood Mansion comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. 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.

Corporate events & private parties at Riverwood Mansion

Reviews and the venue's own info mention corporate events, retreats, or private parties at Riverwood Mansion — garden venues often have real weekday availability since weddings claim the weekends. A quick call answers the three things that matter: weekday and off-season rates, whether the space works for your headcount and A/V needs, and what catering is allowed. If your event lands on a Friday or Saturday in wedding season, ask early.
