RiverCrest Weddings is a wedding venue located in Phoenixville, Pennsylvania. This luxurious, hotel-like estate is owned and operated by the Lejeune family, who recently renovated the property to create a contemporary and comfortable feel. The design now features a neutral color palette with such sophisticated accents as custom draperies and textured wallpapers. Situated in Montgomery County, just minutes from King of Prussia and Valley Forge Park, this venue is easily accessible for guests coming from Philadelphia. For more than 12 years, the team has offered impeccable service to help craft the wedding of couples’ wildest dreams.
Facilities and Capacity Upon arrival at RiverCrest Weddings, you and your partner will receive complimentary champagne, a cheese plate, fresh vegetable crudités, and assorted beverages. The wedding party will then have access to the private get-ready suite, where you can get dressed and apply makeup in front of large vanities. The property has three ceremony sites that you can tailor to your tastes and preferences. Outside, a poolside spot provides breathtaking views of the gardens and a natural stone waterfall. A covered outdoor patio seats up to 200 friends and family members and is framed by stately columns and a graceful white lattice backdrop. For indoor ceremonies, the Roberts Room offers elegant arched windows and a warm and inviting ambiance. After tying the knot, retire to the Ballroom, which features elaborate chandeliers and a large dance floor. The Lounge, with various trendy couches, tables, and chairs, can also be configured for cocktail hours and seats 40 people.
Services Offered Ahead of your nuptials at RiverCrest Weddings, you and five loved ones are invited to attend a private tasting. During this consultation, you will be able to select and finalize your reception catering menu from the butler passed hors d’oeuvres to the entrees. For the big day, the venue provides an event coordinator and comprehensive packages. These include a wine and specialty drink greeting for your guests, a champagne toast, and five hours of reception time with an open bar. Stylish décor, specialty linens, china and glassware, and a custom cake also come with each booking. In addition, the team will place a favor box engraved with you and your partner’s names and wedding date at each guest table setting.
Michele - the wedding specialist: Planning and having a wedding during a pandemic is insanely stressful, and Michele was my go to at every turn. She was not only helpful and knowledgeable, but she was super supportive during the entire process.
The venue: What can I even say? Just look at photos. Rivercrest is such a beautiful venue that we fell in love with the very first time we saw it. The outdoors make for amazing photos. The bridal suite was spacious and comfortable for getting ready. The ballroom and cocktail hour area is sophisticated and beautiful. The terrace gave us a feeling of getting married outside in the cold month of November.
The staff: Every single person we encountered on the day of our wedding was helpful and kind. They all were very respectful of the 6' guidelines and wore their masks. We really appreciated all of the help and respect they gave us during our day. They are 100% on point with COVID restrictions and guidelines, making us and our guests feel so safe.
The food: My FAVORITE part. Everything from the bridal suite in the morning until dinner was absolutely delicious. If you don't get married at Rivercrest for any other reason, the food is enough.
Overall, I wish I could do my day all over again because it was so wonderful. Highly recommend Michele and her team at Rivercrest for your wedding day!

Amazing venue!
Words cannot describe how truly amazing our wedding was at Rivercrest in the middle of a pandemic! From our very first meeting with Michele to our wedding day, we were provided with excellent service and accommodations. Michele was always a phone call or email away with all of the ups and downs (which were many!) with COVID and changing restrictions. The staff was extremely prepared and exceptional with cleanliness and following COVID precautions to make all of our guests feel safe. All of our guests raved about the beautiful space and amazing food. I would not hesitate to recommend Rivercrest to anyone!

The wedding we dreamed of
What a venue! From the elegant ceremony space, to the gorgeous picture views, to the comfortable cocktail area, to the perfect ballroom, Rivercrest made the most special day of our lives fulfill all of our visions of what our wedding could be.
We planned the big day with the help of Michele, who made the process so much easier than anticipated. During each planning meeting, whether it was a food tasting or my wife, Courtney, and I practicing our first dance on the ballroom floor a few days before the wedding, Michele ensured our happiness with each decision, made sure all of our bases were covered, and had fun with us along the way.
Our coordinator the night of the wedding was Hekmet, and he was one of the most laid back yet competent event organizers I have seen. We had several moments where our planned timings were off, and Hekmet adjusted seamlessly, all while checking in with us in a completely relaxed manner. To be able to handle everything while not being overbearing to my wife and I during the evening could not have been an easy task.
If you take all of this and add terrific food and a wonderful vendor recommendation list, I could not think of a better place to celebrate a marriage. For any looking for a venue, Rivercrest should be at the top of the list for consideration.
One of the best wedding venue's in Chester County. Great spots for photos, ballroom is modern and well lit. Dawn and the catering staff are always super easy to work with.
RiverCrest Golf Club is one of our favorite places to create wedding flowers for :) When our brides say that's their venue-we are psyched!! The ballroom is lovely, the grounds -spectacular- and the staff amazingly professional and friendly at the same time. Having been a lucky guest at a wedding after performing the tasks of a vendor- I had the fortunate experience of experiencing the entire evening. The food was amazing- the staff attentive and the whole event was just perfect!! We HIGHLY endorse RiverCrest as one of the BEST in the area.
