Riverview is Perfect!!!!!

Let me start off by saying planning a wedding during pandemic is anything but stress-free, but from the very start of planning, Rachel has literally been amazing. She was always there to listen, give advice, and reassure me that she would make our special day happen! Long story short, we ended up having a smaller wedding at the farm than planned. And my husband and I could not be happier. It was everything we had ever dreamed of and we are so grateful to have had Rachel there to work with us. The farm is absolutely beautiful and made the day feel like a fairytale. Love love LOVE this place!!!!! (pics by Carly Crawford Photography!)

The best experience in the most beautiful setting

My daughter had her wedding at Riverview Family Farm in October. We met with Rachel (the owner) - she asked a bunch of questions, got the names of all our vendors (caterer, florist, DJ, bartender, etc.) and gave lots of qualified advice on things we hadn't even thought of. She had suggestions on where everyone was to set up, what time they should be there, where family/close friends should sit, etc. She was a true blessing and an extraordinary wedding coordinator! She scheduled the rehearsal a few days before and we went over the timeline - when vendors were arriving, when the bride and bridal party should arrive, how long the photographer should take, etc. It was a huge relief knowing all we had to do was to show up and get dressed. On the big day, there was a disconnect between the florist and my daughter having to do with candles on the tables, and Rachel was there to save the day with bins of candles that she had in her storeroom. The weather was crappy and while we were getting ready in the beautiful little house on the property, Rachel and her team got everything moved around inside the barn and set up the chairs for an indoor wedding (we'd planned on an outdoor one). It was absolutely beautiful! Rachel and her team were there in the shadows all night keeping an eye on whatever needed an eye kept on it. After the bride and groom left, she orchestrated getting things moved to our cars, like leftover food, gifts, etc. It was an amazing and beautiful night, due in no small part to Rachel. The barn was breathtaking with the lights at night, and the view during the day was equally beautiful. The little house used by the bridal party was perfect - lots of mirrors in all the rooms and a great little kitchen. I can't say enough good things about Riverview Family Farm and Rachel. It was perfect!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

River View Family Farm is an incredible venue, and we love shooting there. It offers a variety of scenic options for photos, and the barn/patio area for receptions is very beautiful. This family-owned venue includes incredible staff who are well organized and communicate well with vendors all while taking care of the bride and groom. We can't wait to go back!

RiverView Family Farm boasts a stunning property with lake front views surrounded in lush, mature trees and hidden away like a buried treasure. Their barn style event hall is trimmed with beautiful garden lights and chandeliers. The wood planked walls allow for the traditional rustic barn look, but can easily blend well for a soft vintage wedding or even something really urban and industrial. A lot of heart went into this place. The family and staff that run this lovely venue are wonderful to work with. They certainly aim to make your event something of beauty and timelessness. They work hard to ensure your event is just as you always dreamed.
