Amhof Wedding Reception

We had our wedding reception at the River Center and I cannot explain how GREAT of an experience we had. We worked closely with Jennifer, who is simply amazing. She helped us and guided us throughout the entire process from all of our question upfront to determining food choices, lightening, and everything in between. On the day of set up, Jennifer and crew were amazing. They had all of the tables, linens, lights completely set up and ready for my crew to come in with table decor. She gave us OPTIONS and let us make the reception our own with all of her help. The night of the deception, Jennifer and TEAM were AMAZING. They were helpful, respectful, on point, quick, and ready to go. And the food, I cannot get over how many compliments we received on the food and the service of the River Center. After the reception, the River Center team was ready for pick up.

So grateful for the entire team. I cannot say enough amazing things about Jennifer and team, as they truly made the best day of our lives, even better. Jennifer was so helpful throughout the entire process, I am truly grateful for her expertise and patience. We would recommend the River Center to anyone we know. We had such a great experience and our wedding was filled with an amazing experience.

Thank you again,
Matt & Kela Amhof

The River Center was wonderful to work with. Jennifer McKee responded to every question quickly through e-mail and was always willing to meet if needed. The River Center was beautifully decorated for our reception with the canopy lights. The food was very good.
