Embodies Fort Lauderdale Charm
After looking at over 10 venues in both Miami and Ft Laud areas, we loved the charm and historic aspect of the Riverside Hotel. Staff has been extremely responsive and willing to work with us every step of the way so far. Great place if you want a package of venue, unique ceremony / reception (separate) spaces, catering, cake, valet - all included in total price + right on Las Olas, ideal for any out of town guests to show them the true Fort Lauderdale experience!

Everything was perfect!!! Cathy Fox directed and advised in quiet knowledgeable manner. The food was delicious and set up was smooth and beautiful. The historical hotel was unique on the intercoastal and added to the ambience of the wedding.

The Riverside Hotel is a great place to have your wedding. The staff is AMAZING. Jacob helped us plan everything and in the end it was PERFECT. We can't thank him or the banquet staff enough for helping us. Every staff member was courteous and respectful. All our guests had a great stay at the Riverside.

Riverside Hotel is a beautiful and unique setting for a wedding or special event. In fact, we celebrated our honeymoon night there 23 years ago. The staff was friendly and the food was delicious. There's a beautiful balcony in the old wing that overlooks Las Olas Boulevard.
