Amazing Experience

We had an amazing experience working with River Run to help us have our dream wedding. DeAnne was so sweet and helpful throughout the entire process, her calm and flexible presence really helped us stay positive through the stressful wedding process. The food options were amazing, and our guests all raved about the food. The staff went above and beyond to make the tasting a special experience for us and our families.

The venue looked gorgeous on wedding day, and we particularly loved how the cocktail hour could be mix of indoor and outdoor on the patio. The bartenders & staff made the night so amazing. From drink options to late night snacks River Run provided everything we ever would have wanted. We had around 130 guests which fit perfectly in the space.

Everything was perfect and we can't thank River Run enough for helping make our wedding everything we hoped and so much more.

Beautiful Venue

River Run Country Club is a beautiful venue in Davidson, NC. The lawn provided a private, amazing, outdoor space to have out wedding ceremony and the ballroom is beautiful. A space you can truly make your own.

The staff at RRCC was amazing throughout the entire day. They were so polite and made us all feel welcome.

DeAnne was fabulous from start to finish. She was responsive and very easy to work with. Her main priority is making sure everything runs smoothly on the venue side, and it certainly did for our event. She was extremely helpful in helping us navigate the COVID-19 rules of the state. You can't go wrong at RRCC - highly recommend!

Beautiful, Classic Wedding Venue

We had our wedding reception at River Run Country Club's ballroom following our church wedding in November 2019. The ballroom is beautiful and classically elegant and has a generously sized dance-floor. River Run staff were attentive and incredibly easy to work with. There was a change in the wedding coordinator role halfway through our engagement, but everything still went off without a hitch. They were accommodating and it really felt like they were celebrating with us. The chef is AMAZING and all our guests raved about the food. Though it rained and we werent able to take advantage of the beautiful outdoor locations for photos, there were plenty of attractive locations within the venue and covered outdoor areas that we were able to utilize for pictures. Would recommend River Run a hundred times over and only wish the night could have gone on longer!

Absolutely Fabulous Wedding Experience

Our experience for our May 10th, 2019 wedding at River Run Country Club was fabulous. Trish and her team were such a pleasure to work with and were extremely helpful throughout the entire process. Trish helped us along the way with any questions. Food and service was amazing. We decided on a buffet and my personal favorite was the chicken and lemon herb salmon. All of our guests enjoyed themselves.

Wonderful Collaborative Experience

Tricia was incredibly helpful in providing all the necessary details to make choosing a venue much easier. She was prompt in responding to emails and thorough in answering questions. She happily arranged a phone call with us and a tour for the groom's parents (as we are planning from out of state.) River Run has flexible, affordable catering and bar options available to make customizing the menu easy, and the venue itself is as elegant and modern as can be.

We held the wedding and reception for our daughter, Sarah, at River Run on Saturday, March 17. What a wonderful weekend!!!

The facilities were exceptional. Given the ability to host an outdoor ceremony and an indoor sit-down reception, River Run is ideal to host weddings. The interior was simply beautiful.

By far, the best part of River Run was our experience with Tricia Johnson, Director of Member & Private Events. Besides being very professional in all she said and did, she was friendly and gracious in every interaction we had. Her communication with us always contained the right amount of detail and information. She carefully listened in order to understand the desires for the wedding and reception. She offered helpful suggestions but never came across as pushy. She provided much-needed oversight to the bridal party the day of the wedding, and she and her team seemed to be everywhere during the reception. Everything moved along crisply and on time. To be honest, Tricia was the best part of our experience with River Run.

We are grateful to River Run for helping to make this big event so very special for our families.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
