Me and my husband recently got married at Richwood on the River on 8/24/24. We wanted to have an intimate wedding where our close friends and family could stay for the entire weekend and when we toured Richwood we felt like it was everything we were looking for. However the weekend far exceeded our expectations. All the staff were amazing, accommodating, professional and made our weekend and wedding run without a hitch. Kelsey was our coordinator and was there all weekend with us and even offered to go and pick up our pizza for rehearsal dinner.
The grounds and accommodations are beautiful comfortable and clean, and we felt like we were at a home away from home.
We had so many compliments from guests on how beautiful and how wonderful all the staff was.
Leading up to the wedding Kelsey was also quick to respond and even thought Colleen was not our main point of contact she was also in contact during times as well.
We had the most magical wedding and weekend spent with our friends and family, and we would recommend Richwood on the River to anyone and everyone.

We had our wedding at Richwood on the River in May 2024. The entire staff made the experience so smooth and amazing! Our wedding went better than I could have ever imagined. All of our guests staying on site had an exceptional time and everyone had a great time on the wedding day!

Our daughter and her groom had sweet dreams for their 2023 New Year’s Eve Wedding centered around bringing their family and friends together from Louisville and WI, IL, CA, CO, VA, NY, & MO. Richwood on the River was the beautiful setting where their dreams came true.
This destination wedding was a home away from home experience for both of our families. From the first facetime tour with the proprietress Colleen Sutton, to the final detail meeting and all the texts, emails, and phone calls in between, she oversaw every tiny & big detail. Colleen has the finesse, experience, and foresight to handle your event like you have a best friend at your side. We required not just the space for NYE wedding reception but also the accommodations for 42 onsite guests, our rehearsal dinner, a 100-guest welcome reception, the wedding morning breakfast, and a sendoff brunch. Her attention to detail is more than her job, it’s an extension of her calling for genuine hospitality to all that visit. The inn became our home in many respects. Over 4 days, our two families bonded around the huge outdoor fireplace on several nights, broke bread together at the dining room table, and danced & celebrated as a joined family for the new year.
Holding our Welcome Reception in the main house the eve of the wedding was like welcoming all the guests into our own home. The elegant entryway and the illuminated, wreathed windows were a welcoming sight for all our out-of-town guests as they pulled up to the property. We saved the beautiful event space for a grand reveal at the wedding reception, and it was truly grand, wowing the guests with another wonderful experience.
With so, so much going on for one weekend, the schedule ran flawlessly! Colleen, staff and recommended vendors moved about discretely and efficiently. Whenever we needed something, Colleen or a staff member was there in quick response. I’m making this sound very professional when in reality Colleen and her staff were so personable it was like collaborating with family members to be sure everyone was taken care of. This allowed all of us parents the freedom to spend our time enjoy each other’s company and being present for our kids as their dreams came true. We can’t express to Colleen, with all her connections to vendors and local establishments, and all her staff, the amount of gratitude we have for blessing us with the best weekend of our lives!
