If you want the wedding & reception of your dreams, this is the place!!!!
I don't even know where to begin because our wedding and reception at the Atrium @ Rich's was the most incredible and flawless experience. My husband and I had our wedding ceremony and reception this past Saturday, 12/9, and even almost a week later we have people calling us about how beautiful the wedding was, how gorgeous the reception was, how delicious the food and drinks were, how much fun they had, etc. Working with Maureen throughout the planning process makes you feel so comfortable-she knows what she is doing!!-and we just knew our wedding would turn out to be perfect. And it really really was. Anytime I had questions for Maureen, she and her team would respond right away, they were incredibly easy to work with! We just cannot thank Maureen and her entire team enough for all that they did for us, and if we could give a million stars we would. We will be recommending the Atrium @ Rich's to anyone looking for a wedding and/or reception venue over and over again.

Made the day so amazing and easy!
Maureen and her team made the night so magical for us! She had did everything we requested and even added a surprise for us during the cake presentation! Our night was so perfect and we couldn’t have asked for it to go any better! The venue was stunning! All the food was amazing and the drinks were great! The attention to detail made the night so much more special! Maureen and her team made sure we had everything we asked for and kept checking in on us throughout the night! We had such an amazing night I would recommend Rich’s to anybody planning a wedding or special event!
