Kaycee is the absolute best!!

There are no words to describe how amazing Kaycee at Riverside is to work with. My fiancé and I visited Riverside and then went through a series of life changes over the next 5 months where we weren’t able to commit to a date or venue, over that extended period of time Kaycee continued to give us space while keeping an open communication line back and forth. She held the date we wanted, communicated effectively without ever being pushy, and was so patient and kind with us throughout the entire process. We ultimately ended up going with another venue in a different state due to logistics completely out of Riversides control. It was such a hard decision and in a large part due to how incredible and accommodating Kaycee was to work with – she was always willing to chat, offered genuine advice, and always, always put us first. Could not thank Kaycee enough!

A Truly Special Wedding Venue

Our wedding at Riverside Farm far exceeded any expectations we had of a wedding venue. From the impeccably coordinated Riverside staff and talented local vendors to the on-site lodging paired with accommodations at the Amee Lodge, Riverside Farm went above and beyond delivering on all accounts for our wedding.

Alli, our coordinator, was exceptional. All our guests were amazed at how well she ran the weekend and how calm she was the entire time! Alli does not miss a single beat - I never told her anything twice, she always got it on the first go around and remembered every single detail - even things I didn't remember! She brings new meaning to the trait "detail-oriented." She is flexible, extremely organized, very responsive, professional, and easy-going.

Vermont Farm Catering was also phenomenal - from the initial call to the tasting to the day-of, Katie and Kevin always made excellent food and drink recommendations. One month after the wedding, our guests are still raving about the food and trying to figure out how the salmon was prepared! Everyone said it was the best wedding food (including dessert) that they've ever had. Katie and Kevin's staff and bartenders are also extraordinary and run a fabulous wedding. Riverside Farm weddings feel like a warm gathering and that's largely due to the atmosphere and staff. As my mom said at the end of the weekend, "I'm ready to do every event here."

Winter Wedding that Exceeded Expectations

Our entire experience working with the crew at Riverside Farm (specifically Alli!) from the initial tour to the post-wedding final details was incredible. We planned our wedding in 7 months (July engagement to February wedding) and we truly enjoyed all of it depite the quick timeline! The venue itself is stunning, the on site lodging options are awesome, and all of the recommended vendors that had long-standing relationships with the venue are a dream to work with. We are so happy that we trusted Alli from the get-go with our wedding vision because the ceremony and reception truly exceeded all of our expectations. Of special note should also be the catering company that works with the venue (Vermont Farms). They crushed it! Our reception food was one of the best meals I have ever eaten. I cannot recommend everything about this venue highly enough.

People occasionally ask us what our favorite venues are to play outside of New York City. Riverside Farm is always the first name on our list, as we've never had anything less than a fantastic experience playing there, working with their great team and seeing our happy clients at the end of the night, who are always thrilled that they chose to head up to Pittsfield, VT. One of the most beautiful settings, incredible food, a flexible and creative staff and a great sounding set of rooms on their property make Riverside pretty unbeatable. Well worth a look!
