    Made my planning so easy and carefree

    We held our wedding at the River Lodge at River Landing and I could not have asked for a better team to help through the process. Carrie was the absolute BEST. Carrie was super supportive, professional, and friendly though the whole process. She will walk you though the whole process and how everything works. Shelli helped us with booking rooms for our big day and was really helpful as well. When you book with River Landing you can pick your own vendors for your big day except for food and beverage. But let me tell you our food was AMAZING we did the Italian Buffett and my husband and I loved everything and so did our guests. The serving staff was perfect! They were so friendly and really made the day special! Thank you guys so much for the most perfect day!

    Wedding venue

    I cannot have been more thrilled and happy with our wedding at River Landing. I always knew it was a beautiful setting, but our wedding was absolutely perfect. From Meagan being so helpful with all the planning and preparation, to the absolutely wonderful food, to the amazing staff, our wedding was all we could have dreamed and hoped for. The rooms were absolutely wonderful and gave plenty of room for preparation on the day of the wedding, as well as rooms for all of our guests. Highly, highly recommend.

    The most beautiful venue!

    River Landing was the most gorgeous, well-kept venue we have ever seen! We initially wanted to have the river lodge but October is unpredictable for weather. Thus leading to versatility of River Landing being unmatched. Meagan Yow was so insightful and let us check out the ballroom/veranda for an all weather option. We fell in love the space and the weatherproof capabilities of the venue. The staff were very accommodating in regards to covid and put the safety of guest at the forefront. Not only that but this location was so cost efficient! All the looks and dazzle dazzle for the cost. The staff, coordinators, chefs, and guest accommodation staff were delightful and always willing to help. They were instrumental in our special day.

    When I say, I am beyond excited about working with this for my up coming wedding. Carrie was so great showing us around on our tour. This place is beyond beautiful. I am so thrilled to have booked this venue.

    Could not ask for MORE!

    We meet with Carrie in May and the experience was great! The offerings were excellent and we chose our onsite location with tremendous ease. We chose the Celtic court to create and tell our love story! Carrie was easy and has been easy to talk to and I love that we have chosen Riverlanding as our site and location for family and friends!

    Best. Day. Ever.

    I saw the lodge venue early on in our engagement and fell in love. I almost just passed it up because I figured we couldn’t afford it. I thought why not get pricing...I was shocked at how affordable and flexible they were. Day of, everything was PERFECT. All of our guests gushed over everything...the food, service, and just overall beauty of the space was spot on.

    Sensational

    River Landing was the venue for my wedding and reception. We also used their Clubhouses and Falls Suite. Ms Carrie with River Landing was phenomenal in the services she provided to me. The food and all services provided were exceptional. I want to thank them for their services, I was more than happy and pleased with River Landing and highly recommend them.

    My fiance and I fell in love with all that River Landing has to offer. Our wedding is scheduled for May 2017 and the booking and beginning of the planning process has been extremely pleasant. River Landing/Mad Boar is a one stop shop, which is exactly what we have been searching for. We look forward to spending our special day and working with Jenna and River Landing

    Everyone and everything was outstanding. Great location, staff, food, cake. Tabitha Walsh was an awesome coordinator and helped me to calm down before my wedding. Jamie Slichter rocked our groom's cake and wedding cake. She gave us exactly what we asked for!

    My fiance and I live in Wilmington but are 100% against the typical beach wedding. I have had a longstanding desire to get married in the mountains but because of the trek, we were looking for something that had the feel of the mountains without the commute. Cue River Landing and the River Lodge. We went to a bridal expo in downtown Wilmington and after passing by the River Landing booth twice, a picture of a wooden lodge in the middle of the woods caught my eye and I was immediately drawn in. We first met Maddie, a sweet young lady who is one of the coordinators at RL. She invited us to an event called Brides in Wonderland, a two day event that RL was putting on for potential wedding clients. We immediately signed up and attended the event the next week. River Landing put together SUCH an incredible event. We were put up in the hotel not even a mile down the road from the community, we had an amazing dinner in the incredibly beautiful ballroom (one of the venue options) and were treated as more than just potential clients, but as welcomed guests. The next day, we were given tours of all of the available venues on the property and as soon as we saw the River Lodge (and the tee box where we could get married on if we chose that option -which we are!), we were sold and signed papers right on the spot. Kristen Roser, who I'm calling our "wedding day wonderwoman", has been our main point of contact and coordinator. Mind you, we are still a year out from our wedding but every email I've sent, every question I've asked has been immediately responded to and a magnitude of help has been given at every turn. The prices at the venue are fantastic, the catering menu is extensive and it's truly everything I could've hoped for without being in the NC Mountains. My fiance and I are SO looking forward to our big day next year and know that with the beautiful venue, and help from their incredible staff, that it is truly going to be a most magical and love-filled day.

    Had a wonderful wedding. We were at the River Lodge looked amazing. The food was great , the staff was friendly and made every thing just flow perfectly. My only complaint was the room we stayed in. The cape Jasmine suit above the club house the room was 90% great had plenty of space a full kitchen etc. but we had a problem with the shower not having pressure and a fruit fly problem. We did not ask to change rooms due to checking in late at night and having a 2 year old that needed sleep and such. But over all I would recommend river landing in a heart beat. They were affordable caring and made every thing so much easier. I already have to friend who approached me at the wedding asking to sit down with me to go over what we did because they are looking to have there weddings there now too.

    My wedding is a year away, but there is no venue I'd rather have my wedding at than River Landing. I met the staff at their Brides in Wonderland event this past January, and they truly treat potential brides like royalty and have a quality of customer service that I did not find at any other venue I toured. My wedding coordinator is always available to answer my questions, and meet in person if I desire. I cannot wait to have my wedding here!

    We and our guests enjoyed our wedding day immensely!!! All of the staff was very helpful and responsive throughout the entire process. On the big day, everything was very organized, the place was beautiful, the food great, the cake gorgeous and absolutely delicious, and all of the staff was overly catering to our guests. Everyone had a grand time!!! Special thanks to Jenna for working with me throughout the whole process and Jamie for creating the best cake we've ever ate!!!

    We absolutely loved the venue and Jenna was amazing. She was so helpful throughout the whole process. I know that she was dealing with other brides but she made me feel like I was the center priority for her. She was a huge help throughout the whole process. The food was wonderful and I just cannot thank everyone enough for all they did. I will definitely be coming back.

    Absolutely everything was AMAZING!!!! The Clubhouse Suites were WOW! The River Lodge was so rustic romantic, perfect for our wedding day! The nearby hotel where our guests stayed was perfect. The staff is wonderful (Maddie and Leon were amazing!!) and we could have not dreamed of a better outcome. Save thousands and create beautiful memories at this place. Set an appointment to go take a look at the grounds because they have every type of atmosphere you could ever imagine.

    While searching for a venue in Southeastern North Carolina, I was curious upon finding a photographer’s album of a wedding held at a place called River Landing. After visiting the website, I just knew I had to see River Landing in person. With my then fiancé and our families, I traveled to Wallace. Needless to say, we were blown away with the beauty of the property and we began envisioning our wedding being held there. We booked our wedding date within a few days of our initial meeting.
    With booking a wedding two years in advance, we experienced a number of changes within River Landing’s event-planning staff. However, any concerns we had were negated when we met with Kristin Roser. She worked alongside our wedding planner and was very open to the plans we had for our wedding day. We loved that River Landing was very flexible in working with other vendors; they did not have many of the restrictions that many other venues tend to enforce. We went into the planning process with certain types of food items/ideas in mind and the chef executed those perfectly. River Landing was the perfect place to have our wedding weekend. It was the ideal combination of beauty and top notch events staff!

    So far everyone at River Landing has been amazing! They have worked with me every step of the way and made sure things run smoothly! If you get a choice work with Leon he is wonderful and really knows what he is doing. Very professional and easy to work with.
