Absolutely amazing experience.

Riverway Clubhouse is without a doubt the perfect venue to get married at. My husband and I got married there this weekend and everything completely exceeded our expectations. First off, the venue, both inside and outside, is immaculate. It was clean, the gardens were all beautifully taken care of and in full bloom (June), and the outdoor pond and fountain make for a gorgeous backdrop for an outdoor ceremony. It’s just an overall beautiful spot, and photographs so well! Secondly, the food is incredible. We did the wedding buffet Riverway Clubhouse offers, and we received tons of compliments from our guests. There is also a ton of variety (a little bit of something for everyone) and they provide vegan meals for guests who are vegan or with certain allergies. Lastly, the staff were absolutely amazing. They were extremely helpful and friendly to us and all our guests, carried the night out without a hitch, and were even available at the end of the night to help us get our items in storage prior to leaving the venue. Also, special shout out to Bradley, who I worked with for over 2 years planning this wedding (COVID delays) - he answered every one of my emails in a timely, detailed, and friendly fashion, he was available by phone and in person, and really, he’s just an amazing person. My special day would not have been the same without him. If you can’t already tell, I highly recommend Riverway Clubhouse as your wedding venue - you will not be disappointed and you will be very well taken care of.

Excellent Venue!

I am so happy we chose Riverway as our wedding venue. Everything went perfectly. The whole process was very organized and the staff were all awesome to deal with. Bradley was our contact through the whole process and he was very kind, professional and patient with my million and 7 questions! All my quests were very impressed by the food and many said it was best wedding food they have ever had. The desserts were also delicious. I also received a lot of compliments on how beautiful the venue is. The staff were very on top of the buffet and making sure food was replaced as soon as getting low and the chef was able to accommodate the few guests I had who had special dietary needs. One of the reasons I chose Riverway was the very transparent pricing as well. I compared several venues before choosing and I especially liked how straightforward the pricing structure is at Riverway and it made it easy to plan my budget. I have zero regrets or complaints and could not have chosen a better place to share my special day.

Update: Two weeks after wedding I am still getting calls and texts about how good the food was and that the prime rib was perfection.

Say Yes to this Venue!

We held our beautiful wedding here on July 14th and thanks to Bradley and the Riverway team, everything went so smoothly and everyone had an amazing time. The team was so great to work with throughout the planning process and my husband and I weren’t at all nervous on the day because we knew we were in good hands.

Venue- outdoor ceremony site overlooks their beautiful landscaped golf course with water feature. There’s also covered seating for guests. Perfect for ceremony and great for photos. If you’re here for a summer wedding like we were, as the sun sets, the outdoor areas are perfect for guests to relax and have a drink, catch golden hour for photos and just enjoy the summer evening.

Food- We are foodies and the food was so delicious. We did a tasting ahead of booking and were able to work with the team on some custom adjustments. The chef definitely made an effort to ensure everything was made with care and to our specifications, wherever possible. We highly recommend the upgrade to their lobster mac and cheese. Guests raved about this. Their roast beef and sticky toffee pudding dessert were also spectacular but honestly everything was great. We also added on a Lechon (Filipino Whole Roasted Pig) and the vendor they work with cooked it to perfection and served it beautifully.

If you are looking for a beautiful, affordable venue in the city, where you can have both an outdoor ceremony, indoor reception and flexibility to make your day your own, don’t hesitate to check this venue out! They really do provide a very full package experience while allowing space for personalized details. We are so happy we chose Riverway and can’t thank the team enough for their efforts.

(Our photos are still being processed so will try to add them once they are ready)

Happily Married!

Highly recommend Riverway if you are considering them for your wedding. Buget, food and atmosphere is on point!! Bradley and his team were so awesome and helpful. Bradley would answer any and all of my endless questions. Unfortunately, the weather decided to rain on the day of our wedding, but Bradley and his team was able to act quickly and help rearrange our ceremony site. They made sure that each chair was dry for my guests. Despite the rain, our ceremony was beautiful thanks to them and my other vendors. Not only is the venue naturally beautiful, the food is delicious!!! I heard nothing but positive comments from my guests! We are so glad we had our wedding with Riverway!

Excellent Wedding Venue

We hosted our wedding at Riverway and were happy with them from start to finish. It is an absolutely stunning venue and we loved getting to have the ceremony, dinner and dance all in one place. So many of our guests commented on the delicious food and wine selections. The service staff were wonderful. The whole event ran smoothly thanks to the amazing team at Riverway.

Amazing wedding with Riverway!

What a wonderful experience we had with Riverway Clubhouse! My husband and I had the honour of working together with Bradley and Riverway team not once but TWICE! Due to the pandemic, we decided to have a small intimate ceremony in August 2021 and to postpone our reception celebration for September 2022. Throughout the planning process over the past 3 years, Bradley and the team have been very kind, easygoing and honestly extremely helpful. Not only were they understanding but also very supportive and encouraging - even though we had to make some tough decisions last year to split our wedding into two events.

In 2021, the Riverway team worked with my coordinator and me in the months and weeks leading up to the ceremony. Riverway was extremely accommodating even during a time with lots of uncertainty and changes. The morning of our ceremony had been pouring rain and the staff assisted with moving our set up inside. Having the ceremony inside Riverway ended up being such an amazing blessing. The high ceilings and windows with the exposed wood beams was a perfect backdrop and space for our guests. It was intimate, beautiful and perfect. Not to mention the food was amazing! Our guests were greeted with coffee/tea and an array of breakfast treats as they arrived and lunch after the ceremony.

Fast-forward a year later and when the time came for our reception in September 2022 - Bradley was an amazing source of support and assistance. Even though we did not have a coordinator for our reception, Bradley really helped us out the weeks leading up to our big day. Not only was he available to answer all of our questions but also helped guide us and made knowledgeable suggestions for us. Riverway accommodated us with all our requests and ideas.

The events on the day of the reception went seamlessly. The venue was already set up and ready to go in the morning when we began bringing in our décor. Bradley and the staff were ready to go, attentive and supportive all day. Bradley was so thoughtful, checked on us all night, and even brought out water for Justin and me during cocktail hour. The seated dinner service and food was incredible. Countless people came up to us during the night and days after the reception to let us know how much they enjoyed the food (especially the sticky toffee pudding at dessert). The night was nothing less than perfect.

The level of service and professionalism that Riverway provided really blew us away. No wonder Riverway is so popular – it lived up to all our expectations and more. A very special thank you to Bradley, Jason, Michael and Bob! Riverway, thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts! We have loved working with you every step of the way. We wish we could relive the night all over again! We cannot wait to see you at the next event!

Amazing Team and Beautiful Venue

Bradley and the riverway team had made our wedding planning such a breeze. Bradley is extremely friendly, and was accommodating from the very beginning (despite the numerous emails we've sent him). The venue itself is beautiful even with minimal decorations. The bridal room was spacious and nicely decorated. Perfect hideaway for the wedding party to take a breather! The riverway team was extremely accommodating and assisted in handling last minute changes with guests and their meals. Kevin spent the time the evening of the wedding ensuring that my partner and I had everything we needed. We received feedbacks from our guests praising the food - the steak and lobster, the salad, the dessert bar, everything was delicious. We highly recommend riverway clubhouse!

Best Venue - Hands Down!

This is an absolutely stunning venue! We received so many compliments by our guests on how beautiful the venue is - well kept and beautiful floral and spacious! We did the wedding buffet, and, again, received so many compliments on how delicious the food was - Alot of our guests commented on how they went for seconds because it was THAT good! Bradley and his team are amazing - professional, knowledgeable and they go above and beyond their roles! Bradley is personable, provides detailed responses to any inquiries/concerns you have, and truly made it easy for us with an arrangements like AV Testing, guest dietary meals, etc. We would definitely recommend Riverway to anyone thinking of having their wedding here. You will not regret this decision.

Above and Beyond

I would absolutely recommend this vendor! Bradley made our experience (during covid) stress-free. He was helpful, professional, detail-oriented, and straight-forward to work with. He went above and beyond to ensure that we were well-informed and well-taken care of. The staff were friendly and professional! Food was delicious too (surf and turf option).

Dream Venue

Bradley and the Riverway team were extremely friendly and understanding during the planning of our pandemic wedding. I was absolutely blown away by their efforts and accommodating nature that I couldn't have asked for anything more. The venue was naturally beautiful but the staff made it perfect. They were extremely professional and really made it easy to choose them as the location for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. The patio outside also made it a perfect place for dancing given the pandemic restrictions.
