- BBrayden Muller22/04/2026Fantastic view, location, food...Fantastic view, location, food...After our original venue closed down, we were extremely fortunate to find River’s Edge Events to hold our “Engagement” / We’re Already Married party. Every aspect was handled so professionally and the night went perfectly. So many of our guests commented on the fantastic view, location, and delicious food. The venue has great accessibility and all the amenities one could need. The audio and visual systems onsite were a real standout – exactly what we were after to share our surprise video!After our original venue closed down, we were extremely fortunate to find River’s Edge Events to hold our “Engagement” / We’re Already Married party.

- DDeb Vincent22/04/2026AMAZINGAMAZINGI recently had my cocktail style wedding at River’s Edge and my husband and I could not be happier with our decision of choosing this beautiful, modern and minimalist venue. Our Event Coordinator Mariana was AMAZING! She was super flexible and supportive, accommodating a number of special requests, such as a pizza station (not on their usual menu), and allowed us to DIY our styling, which played a huge role in helping us keep to budget. Mariana went above and beyond what we had expected.I recently had my cocktail style wedding at River’s Edge and my husband and I could not be happier with our decision of choosing this beautiful, modern and minimalist venue.

- VViktoria Rose22/04/2026Amazing ExperienceAmazing ExperienceWe had our sit down wedding at River's Edge on the 5th of August and we had such an amazing experience. The venue and the view was stunning and was such a beautiful backdrop for our wedding. We had both our ceremony and reception indoors and the team were able to completely transform the room from ceremony space to beautiful reception in about an hour. The food was incredible quality. We thought everything they put out was restaurant quality and our guests also had many compliments.We had our sit down wedding at River's Edge on the 5th of August and we had such an amazing experience.
