Marina S. Sent on 11/05/2022Loved our venue!
I cannot say enough about Stephanie who was our event coordinator. Had I known how helpful and on top of everything she was going to be I could have saved myself a lot of stress and not hired the day of coordinating company I hired to work the event. The views were amazing. We got the best photos and the venue was beautiful. Everything was clean. I do feel that the space was a little to large for the size wedding we had and it didn’t feel as “intimate” as I would of liked and it was a lot of walking back and forth to the bar to the dance floor. Food was good everyone enjoyed it. We did the late night state fair station and it was a HIT! Definitely more affordable than most of the other venues I went with and Amber was great at communication and payments throughout the planning process. Any question I had she would answer and help guide me to what I should or shouldn’t do. If you have the option to add an extra bartender I would recommend it just to keep the lines down at the bar. We only had 1 of the 2 bars open which was fine but I think we could have used a 3rd hand. We had a guest list of 85.

We had our October 2022 wedding ceremony and reception at The River Club of Mequon and would book our wedding again there in a heartbeat. We signed our contract in December 2020 and over the almost 2 year engagement we never felt forgotten about or made to be less of a priority- all of our random emails with random questions were answered so quickly. We felt like the prices were absolutely fair for the quality we received in the building, staff, food and all the included little “extras.” The entire building and grounds are beautiful- it requires minimal decorating and the views are breathtaking. The food is EXCELLENT, it was honestly one of the best meals of my life! Our guests are still raving about the food even 4 months later, with comments like “This is good, but nothing will ever be as good as Mariah and Ryan’s wedding.” The waitstaff and bartenders were extremely kind, and by the end of the night felt like our good friends. They even have a full on game room that is included which made the kids, and let’s be real a lot adults too, so happy and entertained. The River Club is unlike all the other venues we toured, and definitely stood out against the competition, which made us feel like our wedding wasn’t so generic, and gave us the “wow” factor.
The Event Director, Amber, is an angel on Earth. She is kind, personable, professional and truly strives to make sure you have the best experience ever. Whatever they pay her they need to pay her double because she’s worth it. We had a few hiccups the morning of, including things not being set up the way previously discussed with a different private sales coordinator, and she was so attentive to make sure things were quickly resolved. After our wedding I emailed Amber about the concerns we had with our day, and without hesitation she apologized and offered to schedule a phone call to discuss further. She heard us out and noted they were already brainstorming ways to avoid our hiccups with future couples. Most places probably would not have cared, because the event was over and they already had our money, but Amber went above and beyond every step of the way from beginning to end and cares about her couples to the fullest.
I want to reiterate that our day did not have anything catastrophic happen to ruin our wedding. Our day was absolutely perfect from beginning to end, and given the chance to go back and do it all over again, we would 1000% book with the River Club and Amber. We highly recommend them and have zero regrets. -

Amazing Venue: Easy to Work With
Amber and her staff were amazing. They were quick to respond to all emails and questions we had; easy to work with and provided thoughtful suggestions during our wedding planning process. The venue itself was amazing. We had numerous options for decor choices, and the final setup was gorgeous. Food and portion sizing was great, we were actually full after eating our meal (which doesn't often happen at weddings for plated meals). Overall, we highly recommend the River Club to anyone getting married!! -

Carly A. Sent on 07/26/2022Our Perfect Wedding-- Thanks River Club!
Our July 2022 at River Club of Mequon was absolutely perfect! We are so glad that we chose this venue. The space was perfect for our 240 person wedding. Our ceremony was on the patio, which was so beautiful and convenient. Amber was amazing to work with! She was organized, responsive, flexible, and kind--and you could tell that her #1 goal was to make our wedding day exactly as we wanted. I had a pretty specific vision for the ceremony set-up, and she worked with me every step of the way to make it happen exactly as I'd pictured! Stephanie was also wonderful, and was there to help attend to anything that we needed the evening of the wedding. Our guests are all telling us how much they loved the venue-- especially the food! We are so thankful for Amber and the River Club staff for making our dream wedding come true! -

This past weekend we had our wedding ceremony and reception at the River Club of Mequon. The venue is gorgeous and Amber was amazing to work with! Once we booked the venue we went for a food tasting (could bring 4 additional people) and during the tasting we were able to see table linens and additional decor to help us choose our options. The whole experience was seamless, food was amazing and they help you throw a great party!River Club of Mequon's reply:
Thank you for taking the time to write a review! Congrats to you and Jake! What a fun, beautiful night - I wish you both the best! -

The Riverclub exceeded our expectations from the very second we walked in until the days following our wedding. We were planning on getting married at a different venue but after that plan fell through due to some cost stress as we had, we decided to look elsewhere. When we met Amber, we explained this to her and she was so accommodating and kind and assured us that she would do her best to help us get everything we wanted while helping us stay within our budget. My parents are often particular and had many requests and questions throughout our 1+ year of planning. Amber was patient and provided a sense of calmness at all times which really helped put all of us at ease. We had two ceremonies which went exactly as planned. The food and clean up afterwards was quick and efficient. In the midst of everything in the night, we ended up leaving without our wedding cake. We were contacted by The Riverclub as they let us know they had boxed up the cake for us and that it was ready to be picked up whenever we had time. Thank you for helping us make this day so perfect!River Club of Mequon's reply:
Thank you, Rucha & Anthony! It was our pleasure. I loved every minute of planning and the day was beautiful! -

I attended a friends wedding at River Club. The scenery was so beautiful! We had a buffet style supper which was organized really well and the food was great. I would recommend booking a wedding in the fall because of the color of the golf course! -

Erin Sent on 05/31/2011I just got married last Friday, May 28th 2011 and I could NOT have asked for a better reception site! If you have not seen this place, go see it -- the scenery alone calls for a great reception site!
Larry, the Wedding director, took care of us from the day we signed the contract with them, March 2010, to the day we got married. For the entire year he made sure to take care of us well!
The days before the wedding Larry was very pleasant as we came over to drop things off asking us how we could help. As any bride should know, the days before a wedding seem to be the most hectic as you are trying to get everything together. Larry definitely took care of us!
For the day of the wedding, Larry and his crew were amazing. They set everything up perfectly, and his staff was extremely curteous and responsive. After the reception, they were kind enough to put all of our things AND gifts in our cars. Our parents were very pleased as no one wants to put things in their car at the end of a long night.
As for the food, the most important part, we had the Proscuitto Chicken and Filet Mignon and Shrimp Duet. People came up to us after dinner and said, "The food was the best reception food I have ever had!" For 200 plated entrees, they did a phenomenal job!
Thank you Larry and crew -- your factility is GORGEOUS and the service was AMAZING! -

Kaitlyn Sent on 09/02/2010My husban and I had our dream wedding at the MCC! Larry Kreiner, the event sales director, is absolutely amazing at his job and really takes the time to make sure everything is perfect for your big day! The room was set up to perfection, the food was hot and staff was very accomodating to our guests. Our best man even got a second steak. They were very friendly and extremely easy to work with.
The onyl problem we had during the reception, was a toilet got clogged in the ladies bathroom and none of the staff seemed to know how to fix it. My aunt tracked down the general manager and the problem was immediately fixed.
Our dream wedding really came true due to the expertise of Larry! I would strongly suggest this venue to any bride and groom looking to have a beautiful wedding in the North Shore!
