Beautiful Venue + Wonderful Staff

I recently had the pleasure of working as a coordinator at this venue for one of my couples. I had a great experience working with Suzi and her husband who own the space. Responsive, super friendly and very helpful on event day. It's such a neat space with so much character. I highly recommend this spot!

Best venue out there!

This venue is the most beautiful venue we’ve seen. My husband and I went to over 10 venue places and kept coming back to this one! We are so happy that we chose this place. Not only the place is beautiful but so are the owners! They are so kind and flexible! The ceremony site was amazing and the barn reception area was the selling point! Thank you so much!!!

The perfect venue

My husband and I live in the UK but decided we were going to get married in the states. Being across an ocean made it a little bit difficult to pick a wedding venue but lucky for us we have an amazing in-house wedding planner (my mom). She knew the key points I was looking for, outdoor wedding venue, (with a gorgeous indoor option if weather is an issue), big dance floor, and a place to celebrate one of the best days of our lives! -and boy did she nail it!! She took my dad with her to visit Riverside on the Potomac for the first time and they Skyped us later that day with glowing reviews! They described the gorgeous pond, the beautiful flowers, the spectacular barn, and the fun stables for cocktail hour! It sounded like the perfect spot, and we blindly said yes! Later on in the year we were able to visit Riverside on the Potomac in person and it was even better than we imagined! Both the groom and I cried as soon as we walked into the reception barn- it is just soooooo stunning! Our wedding was fabulous and our guests enjoyed every inch of the venue! The ceremony on the pond with gorgeous fields surrounding us. Cocktail hour in the stables was so fun, and there are excellent photo-op areas all around (they even bring out a vintage car to take photos with!). And last but not least the barn for the reception is perfect. An amazing dance floor, an epic wooden bar with fun couches and chairs around, a large kitchen area for catering to make their magic, and a perfect layout for creativity in the way you arrange your guests! Also I can’t forget to mention the bridal only bathroom that is big enough for even the largest princess dress!!! Thank you Suzi and Travis for sharing such a beautiful spot for our wedding.
