Riverbend Venue at River's Edge

My husband and I had our September wedding at Riverbend. The venue was beautiful and we had so many compliments from our guests. The venue is right on the river and made such a beautiful background for our ceremony. The dining area and bar/dance area are in different rooms, which made everything so smooth as we didn’t need to have any room flips or turnovers done quickly. We also found the bridal and groom suites super convenient. We were even able to keep our belongings in the suites all evening. The staff at the venue is INCREDIBLE. The bartenders were super friendly and professional, and we were absolutely amazed at all the work Cathy and Ali did for us. They were super responsive to us and helped plan out so many small details. I could not recommend this venue enough!

I dj’ed a wedding at this lovely venue. I love the ceremony/dinner area . Their sound system is set up perfect. Their staff is very friendly and accommodating . The bartenders ( Kenzi and Charity) are awesome.

Highly recommend RiverBend to anyone looking to have a beautiful wedding. This venue is perfect. We had so many compliments from our guests on the venue. The getting ready rooms are the best and are nice to use throughout the night. Some beautiful areas for photos. Can’t wait to get ours! Lastly, the staff is what truly make it happen. Cathy goes above and beyond for you to make your dream wedding come true. Her experience and knowledge are second to none and our big day went off without a hitch. The bartenders were also amazing and very attentive to our guests and my husband and I. They made sure everyone had a great time. Cannot say enough good things about this venue.

Thank you so much for making this truly "The Best Day Ever"!
Cathy and Allie were fantastic to work with, had great advise to share and I am glad we listened. The entire staff was amazing, even the little ones had fun, they want us to get married every weekend :)

Wedding venue was beautiful and event coordinators/staff were very easy to work with. My day went very smooth.

Only heads up I would give other brides is that if you are having a summer wedding, there will be tubers on the river past 4:30. There were a few groups that continued until past 6pm, it could be a distraction if you have your ceremony there. Nevertheless it was a beautiful venue I would highly recommend!

Great experience with family! Staff were friendly and helpful! Great outdoor time on a hot day! I went on a day that was almost 100°F weather and it was a hot day indeed. Make sure to splash your tire with water every so often so you do not get burned from the hot tire if you are planning on going in the summer on a very hot day! Apply and reapply sunscreen!! I reapplied 2 times and still got sunburned as I burn easy. The ride down for my family was about 3 hrs long! Some parts were shallow, other parts very deep, and some parts rocky (as in there are big rocks really close to the surface of the water! Fun times! I would recommend for families, friends, and anyone looking for a good time!

We were there for a wedding and it is a great facility for receptions. There is a beautiful view along the river as well that really adds to the ambiance of the place.

Cathy and Kallan were such a pleasure to work with. Communication was great, the pricing was clear, and they both worked their tails off to make sure that our day was all that we could have hoped for. They really went above and beyond from tracking down our signature drink recipe to wrapping my bouquet which I'd bought from Cub the morning of. (; I would tell everyone I know to consider having their wedding at Riverbend. I am so grateful to have had the chance.

I CANNOT say enough about this venue. It was a perfect wedding venue. Not only were they easy to work with, they followed through on everything they committed to. I don’t know how we would have pulled it off had it not been for the facility manager, Kathy. She was there for everything from advising us how to handle the details of coordinating the agenda to actually fixing my daughters wedding dress straps which broke while dancing. There was not one thing I could suggest they do better. How lucky we were to stumble upon Riversedge. How rare to find such a beautiful place with great people who work hard for you.

Staff is stellar. Upon leaving, found my wallet was no longer in my jacket pocket. Wonderful bartender, and I apologize for not recalling her name, saw it on the floor, kept by register for safekeeping until I was looking. Can't thank her enough.
The setting is phenomenal on the river.
Also, the band was awesome, Arch Allies... and yes... the pizza...

We held our Company 30th Anniversary celebration at Riverbend at River's Edge. This venue is very special...the floor to ceiling windows overlooking the river provide stunning views - a show stopper in itself. They also have lighting to illuminate the river after dark! The floor plan flows beautifully from banquet room to gathering areas for a band, the bar and visiting. The AV set up was wonderful. We used 2 of the venues large screen TV's for a presentation and with eight built-in speakers in the room, everyone could hear the presenter perfectly. The facility is beautiful, but what made this venue stand out was the customer service from each and every person we worked with right from the start. Taylor, Steve, Jim, Brandi were amazing!! They seemed to enjoy our event just as much as we did. Friendly, accommodating, and professional. The day of the event, they were the first to arrive and the last to leave after a full day and their disposition remained happy and helpful. They worked very hard to ensure our event was top notch. They were wonderful! This venue far exceeded our expectations. It will always be my first choice.

This was a perfect place for my son's wedding on September 4th....beautiful, comfortable, affordable. Kathy, the manager and all of the staff, were friendly and accommodating.

Not only is the setting beautiful, the venue is beautiful and unique offering lots of space. What made our daughter's wedding very special was the staff helping us through the night making sure everything ran smoothly.

I have only been here as a guest but it’s a nice place from that perspective.

Wonderful wedding venue in such a beautiful setting. The staff was outstanding and the banquet was excellent!

The building is absolutely beautiful and we received so many compliments on what a great venue it was. The team at 23 Events and the staff at Riverbend were so accommodating and friendly. I would highly recommend this venue to anyone.

My children had a surprise birthday party for me at the Riverbend. It was awesome. Lots of room and a great set up.

We could not be happier with this venue. Everyone was very helpful and easy to work. The space is absolutely beautiful. I would recommend it to anyone having an event here!

All I can say is fun fun fun great environment, loving the tubing down the river great place to take the family.

The best and only place to go tubing on apple river
