The Riviera Ballroom was an excellent choice for our wedding venue. From the moment we first reached out, their communication was responsive, timely, and very well-managed. The space itself was absolutely beautiful - stately and elegant, providing the perfect setting for our intimate ceremony and dinner. Our guests raved about the intimate ceremony space and the lovely dinner area, which allowed for great conversation throughout the evening. As the bride, I wish there had been a private space for me to get ready and wait before the ceremony, as the guests were able to see me beforehand. Additionally, some of our guests mentioned that parking was a bit tricky. Overall though, the Riviera Ballroom exceeded our expectations and made our special day truly memorable.

We could not have imagined a more perfect venue for our day. Everyone at Nippersink was beyond kind and helpful on the day of and for the entire year leading up to the wedding. Jaclyn was a dream to work with. She answered all of my many questions and was so flexible and accommodating. She always responded very promptly and went above and beyond in answering any questions or requests. Paul, the owner, and his wife were equally helpful and kind. I loved how personable their entire family was. My now husband and I kept saying throughout the whole wedding planning process how lucky we were to find Nippersink. Some examples of how they went above and beyond: buying my favorite flavored water and Malibu to use as a signature drink, allowing us to add on an appetizer a week before the wedding, sending us pictures of all of the available decor to use (they have so many great options available!), giving us the nicest gift day of, being flexible in the rehearsal dinner timing, and allowing us to have our ceremony at the venue with only 4 months notice when our church fell through. Besides their family being the sweetest, they have created such a wonderful space! The new wooden tables and chairs are gorgeous, the hotel was just redone, the grounds are beautiful and the food was delicious. We have gotten SO many compliments from guests about how much they loved the venue and were told from a guest it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had! We truthfully could not have had a better experience and we are so thankful to everyone at Nippersink on the Lake for that! Five stars just isn’t enough!
