Rimbey Riverside Retreat is a beautiful country wedding venue with a heated banquet hall, located five minutes north of Rimbey, Alberta.

This 23 acre property with private camping and guest cabins would be the perfect destination for a private weekend wedding.

The venue has many features included in your wedding packages. We also have a few extra options that can be added to your package to make your day more memorable and convenient.

The hall is 90x42', featuring a 10' overhang for extra space. Built into the hall are five sunshine doors. Four sunshine doors face the pond, and one larger door faces the ceremony area. On one side of the hall is the outdoor self-serve granary bar amd gazebo for your guests after the ceremony, and on the other side is the ceremony site. The ceremony site is a large green space surrounded by willows with ample space for up to 180 people. We supply an arch, signing table, décor, and wooden seating benches for you.

There is also camping available for those who are interested in a weekend package. We have fully serviced sites, powered sites, and extra un-serviced sites for up to 28 trailers. If you are wanting to use air conditioning in your trailer you will need a generator. The sites offer basic power. There is also a large group area called the "corral" equiped with a fire place as an additional spot for your guest to gather.

This venue also offers the unique feature of winter weddings.
