What They’re Saying!

“I got married here this past November and the venue is absolutely gorgeous and the staff is super friendly!”

“I had my wedding here yesterday, and I could not have asked to have it at a better venue! The whole staff was wonderful from start to finish. They helped in anyway they could, and did more than their part. This has been such an easy fun experience with them. If you’re looking for a wedding venue or even if you’re just looking for a place to spend the night without a doubt this is a place you should check into! You won’t be disappointed. Couldn’t have asked for a better day! Thank you for making our wedding day important to you and your staff too! ❤️”

“River Rest is absolutely the most beautiful, tranquil venue if you are looking for an affordable, cozy lakeside wedding. The staff is incredibly helpful, it really took my mind off the stress of my big day. The view from the house out onto Lake Logan Martin is stunning, and there is so much plant-life around the house that I barely had to decorate.

I had a June wedding, which means it was hot and sticky outside, but nearly the entire outside space at River Rest is shaded so it wasn’t a problem. My caterers were very impressed with their large kitchen.

There is SO much cozy space inside that you’ll have free reign to decorate as you please. I kept all of the furniture in their original locations because it gave my guests lots of comfortable seating post-meal.

I can’t recommend River Rest enough!”

“I was amazed about having my wedding at this venue. Everyone was so polite and helpful. If you need a place to get married please check them out!!”

“Thank you guys so much for everything! Today turned out perfect!! Ladies and Guys if you are looking for a place to get married I highly recommend here.”

“Excellent hosts, wonderful food. Great place for a wedding.”

“My niece got married there today. The owners were so nice and very pleasant. Made us feel right at home. The venue is excellent for your wedding or any event I’m sure”

“Beautiful Place for a wedding.”

“We attended Stevie R.s’ Wedding. We really enjoyed the country riverside home atmosphere. The place is really beautiful and the view awesome. The host/owners are so gracious they make you feel at home. All of the outdoor living space is so comfortable and spacious, perfect for even a fairly large gathering. I think that was the best wedding I have ever attended.”

“I came to a dear friend of mines wedding here yesterday and I can’t even begin to desrcibe how gorgeous this whole entire property is. The staff went above and beyond to make yesterday perfect. The owner of the property was talking to us towards the end and telling us about all of the work he has done to make the property what it is today. He personally made additions to the house and also right across from the property is the lake. On the lake there is this tiny little island with trees. The owner was telling me when he first bought the property you couldn’t see the lake because the little island was so overgrown. So he personally cleared some of the vegitation so not only can you see his beautiful house from the lake but you have a million dollar view from the front porch. I will definitely recommend River Rest to all of my friends and I will definitely be back!”

“Wonderful wedding venue!
Very hospitable hosts!”

“This is an absolutely beautiful venue. The house and grounds are wonderfully kept and the view of the lake is amazing. I spoke with several of the staff and owners and they were all super friendly. The wedding which I was attending ran very smooth and the 12 hours that I spent here were laid back and completely enjoyable.”

“An absolutely beautiful venue with breath taking views. We felt so welcome from the time we walked in to the time we left. River Rest has the most helpful owners and staff I will recommend them anytime someone is looking for a venue! Thanks guys for helping to take the stress out of a stressful day yall are awesome!”

“Just left a friend’s wedding and wanted to brag about the awesome owners and staff! Everyone was so nice and helpful!! The area is absolutely gorgeous!!!”

“I was the photographer to a wedding just this last weekend. The owners introduced themselves and were very helpful and gracious. At one point during the wedding I had a malfunction with my sd card in my camera. One of the owners, Richard, rushed to get his laptop and spare sd cards in an effort to help us so the brides day would remain perfect .Now that’s great customer service. I was hired help, not a paying customer, but they were so determined to make sure the bride and groom had a fabulous day that they aided me. And it is solely because of Richard that the bride has a full 8 hours of photographic memories. Thank you Richard. And Ellen was nice enough to let us move her chairs and plants around during the First Look photo session. The B&B /wedding venue is absolutely beautiful and well maintained. I highly recommend it.”

“We photographed the B. wedding this past weekend and we absolutely loved the different views and settings we had to work with. The staff were very kind, considerate and helpful during the entire day of festivities. Thank you Richard and Ellen!!!!”

“We were married at River Rest last weekend and I can’t say enough about how wonderful our experience was from beginning to end! The venue and grounds are absolutely gorgeous and the staff was amazing! We stayed a couple extra days after the wedding and we were treated like family! The food was out of this world and we are already planning to go back for our anniversary! The day was magical and I can’t thank them enough for making it our BEST DAY EVER!!!”

“We had a great day and everything was beautiful!!”

“I would definitely recommend this place to anyone for an event. I am still living off the high from my wedding that I had there a little over a week ago on May 25, 2019. The staff is super professional and nice and helped make my day everything o dreamed of and more.”
