My husband and I recently celebrated our wedding at Riverwood Manor, and I cannot recommend this venue highly enough. The lakeside ceremony space exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the natural beauty of the grounds. The ceremony area sits perfectly nestled among mature trees that provide just the right amount of shade and create a magical, intimate atmosphere. The tranquil lake in the background offered a stunning backdrop for our photos. The staff at Riverwood Manor were exceptional from start to finish. Our coordinator, Sarah, guided us through the entire planning process with patience and expertise. On the day itself, the team worked seamlessly behind the scenes to ensure everything ran smoothly. What truly sets Riverwood Manor apart is their attention to detail. The white ceremony arch was elegantly decorated just as we had envisioned, and the seating arrangement allowed all our guests to feel included in the moment. The natural aisle created by the chairs and trees made for a breathtaking entrance. The reception area was equally impressive, with ample space for dining and dancing. The catering team prepared a delicious meal that our guests are still raving about weeks later. If you're looking for a venue that combines natural beauty with professional service, Riverwood Manor delivers on all fronts. Our guests repeatedly told us it was the most beautiful wedding setting they had ever experienced, and we couldn't agree more. This hidden gem provided us with memories we'll cherish for a lifetime.
