We loved getting married at Riverside. Is a beautiful and unique venue, and we got so many compliments from our guests. Suzi and Travis are also a delight to work with, super responsive and supportive throughout the whole process. They also recommend amazing vendors, which really helped with the planning process.Riverside on the Potomac's reply:

ROTP is such a stunning venue. The property is beautiful and the barn is perfect. Suzi and Travis are amazing to work with and they truly care about all the couples they do weddings with. When I toured this venue I fell in love. There are so many places to pick for your ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. We got married in October, and everything was still very lush and green. It was a little colder, but everyone felt great inside the climate controlled barn. This venue met all my expectations and more. Thank you again Suzi and Travis!!!Riverside on the Potomac's reply:

Beautiful Venue for a Perfect Wedding
Suzie and Travis were the perfect venue owners! From the start of finding a wedding venue to finishing the night of our wedding, everything was easy working with them. Suzie was very responsive and easy to communicate with. She always answered my (many) questions before I chose a venue and then after we decided on Riverside and were planning the details. We were able to visit the venue multiple times during the planning process. The week before the wedding my father-in-law was able to drop off the beer and wine in the kitchen and our caterer set up the day before (because the wedding was on a Friday we had more wiggle room with set up). On the day of, Travis and Susie helped direct people with parking and even drove people who needed extra help walking in a golf cart. Our wedding ceremony was at a Catholic church so we used the patio for the cocktail hour. I was not worried about the weather/rain because if it did rain we would simply move the cocktail hour into the stables, which were equally as lovely. They let us use their wine barrel tables for cocktail tables and a cake stand which they set up in the locations for us. We also used all of their simple white folding chairs which were lovely and an easy way to save money. All of our guests loved the scenic countryside and had so much fun! Compared to many other venues in the area I believe Riverside has better scenery and amenities and was equally priced if not slightly cheaper. I would recommend anyone planning a wedding in the Leesburg area look at Riverside on the Potomac!Riverside on the Potomac's reply:
Thank you for your wonderful review. It was a joy to have you here! We love being part of your memories and hope that you come back to visit! -

This venue is the most beautiful venue we’ve seen. My husband and I went to over 10 venue places and kept coming back to this one! We are so happy that we chose this place. Not only the place is beautiful but so are the owners! They are so kind and flexible! The ceremony site was amazing and the barn reception area was the selling point! Thank you so much!!!Riverside on the Potomac's reply:
Thank you so much! It was a joy to have your special day here, we were humbled and honored to be a part of your day and memories. Beautiful wedding! -

My husband and I live in the UK but decided we were going to get married in the states. Being across an ocean made it a little bit difficult to pick a wedding venue but lucky for us we have an amazing in-house wedding planner (my mom). She knew the key points I was looking for, outdoor wedding venue, (with a gorgeous indoor option if weather is an issue), big dance floor, and a place to celebrate one of the best days of our lives! -and boy did she nail it!! She took my dad with her to visit Riverside on the Potomac for the first time and they Skyped us later that day with glowing reviews! They described the gorgeous pond, the beautiful flowers, the spectacular barn, and the fun stables for cocktail hour! It sounded like the perfect spot, and we blindly said yes! Later on in the year we were able to visit Riverside on the Potomac in person and it was even better than we imagined! Both the groom and I cried as soon as we walked into the reception barn- it is just soooooo stunning! Our wedding was fabulous and our guests enjoyed every inch of the venue! The ceremony on the pond with gorgeous fields surrounding us. Cocktail hour in the stables was so fun, and there are excellent photo-op areas all around (they even bring out a vintage car to take photos with!). And last but not least the barn for the reception is perfect. An amazing dance floor, an epic wooden bar with fun couches and chairs around, a large kitchen area for catering to make their magic, and a perfect layout for creativity in the way you arrange your guests! Also I can’t forget to mention the bridal only bathroom that is big enough for even the largest princess dress!!! Thank you Suzi and Travis for sharing such a beautiful spot for our wedding. -

Riverside on the Potomac in Leesburg was the perfect location for our wedding. The gardens, the river, the trees... all beautiful backdrops for the day. The property is a nice piece of land in Loudoun County that features a large barn for the reception and a one-of-a-kind cocktail hour area (repurposed horse stables.) Having different locations for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception was really important to us. We didn't want any part of the day to get stale and the space and accommodations ROTP offers kept the guests moving and exploring. Our decor for the day was relatively simple because we didn't need to add much to the already established pieces on the property. One of our favorite spots in the barn was the furnished lounge/bar area. A lot of thought went into making ROTP special and we could not have asked for a better venue!Riverside on the Potomac's reply:
Kaitlin,
Thank you for the kind words. We appreciate your enjoying our historic venue! We do take pride in what we do to make your day special. You had such a beautiful wedding and we enjoyed having you here! -

Katie W. Sent on 06/06/2023Charming Rustic Venue with Kind, Amazing Owners
Riverside is such a unique venue. My now husband and I were instantly charmed by the venue, its owners Suzi and Travis and their dogs. It was the first venue that we toured, and we knew it was the one for us. The grounds are beautiful and well-cared for with the Waterfall Terrace, the barn, the stables and the little chapel. The photo opportunities are endless! We wanted a place that was fun and casual, and this venue easily provided that ambiance.
Suzi and Travis are the heart and soul of this place. Suzi is so very responsive and is always willing to answer any questions. Travis handles the grounds and can talk to you about the history of the construction. My FIL unfortunately broke his leg before the wedding, and Suzi and Travis were very accommodating with the golf carts and ensuring that he could get around the venue. Note that the venue is rather large with a hill up to the barn, but there are golf carts to make it more accessible.
We love Riverside! And our vendors all love Riverside as well. (Photos by Gracie Withers Photography)Riverside on the Potomac's reply:

Riverside on the Potomac, Suzanne and her husband was the best choice for our fall October 2022 wedding. And by far, one of the best people we worked with leading up to our special day. Suzanne incapsulated everything we had envisioned and more when it comes to such a beautiful venue. We couldn’t imagine such a special day without her doing everything and more to make sure we could focus on each other. Please trust me when I say if you are reading this review that you found the one. Thanks Suzanne for making Camila and I’s wedding a forever memory with your exquisite venue and excellent communication. -

We fell in love with the venue from the pictures and videos online, but meeting Suzi in person sealed the deal. She has incredible knowledge around the business and offers the best advice to make for the most special day. She truly wants each couple to experience the most perfect wedding and her venue serves and the perfect backdrop with its incredible charm, character, and room for personalization.Riverside on the Potomac's reply:

Thank you for your kind words. Travis and I were honored to be a part of your special day. It is wonderful that Riverside on the Potomac will be fond memories for you . Have a fun, joyous life together. -

A little over a year ago my daughter became engaged and we were looking for a venue for her wedding. Upon arriving at Riverside on the Potomac we thought oh my, a stone road… Well, as we started into the driveway a swarm of cardinals flew across our car. After parking, we saw the pond where the ceremony would be held. We were greeted by honking geese and hundreds of beautiful daffodils around the pond. Behind the pond was a large field with another pond and from there the Potomac River. As we gazed, about a dozen deer ran across the open field, stopped and gazed at us. My daughter was in tears! She said mom, “I feel I am in a Disney movie. This is where I want to be married.” She felt her Nanny and her uncle, that she lost way too early, was with her. The owner Suzi, could see in my daughters’ eyes this would be the place for her wedding. Both Suzi and Travis, her husband were wonderful from the first day we met them. They showed us around the venue and were supportive and helpful throughout the year. They answered any questions we had, which were plenty, and responded promptly. The venue dates back to the 1700’s and is beautiful in every way. Suzi opens her home for the brides to get ready. The stables are redone and are exquisite. There is a tack room that looks more like a man cave for the groom/guys to get ready. It has a couch and TV for them to relax. Each horse stall has been redone into a small dining area which could be used if adverse weather or just a nice quiet place during cocktail hour which some of our guests took advantage of. My daughters’ wedding was the last weekend in April. The weather was wonderful and the venue was beautiful! All the flowers were blooming and the venue was spectacular. Even the deer decided to greet us again during the rehearsal. Suzi and Travis were in the shadows to help if we needed them. Suzi even took pictures of my daughter and her father walking towards the ceremony along with a few others and emailed them to us after the wedding. This shows they love what they do and this little extra meant so much to us. We were so happy to have found this venue for our daughters’ wedding and we could not have imagined having it anywhere else. Thank you for such a special day and welcoming us, our family and friends to your home and venue at Riverside on the Potomac.Riverside on the Potomac's reply:
Thank you for the wonderful review, it was our pleasure and honor to have your daughter’s special day here with us! Getting to know you and your husband through out the process and the detailed care you took with your daughter’s wedding was terrific! -

Riverside on the Potomac was the second venue that me and my husband looked at and we fell in love instantly!! We knew we wanted to get married in a rustic barn venue and this place was absolutely perfect. Working with Travis and Suzi was so great leading up to the wedding. Suzi was very prompt in her responses when I emailed her (and I emailed her a lot lol.) We got so many compliments from our family members and everyone kept asking how we found the place. Once everything was set up with the lights and all the decor on the wedding day, it was exactly how I envisioned. I could not have been happier with how everything turned out!!Riverside on the Potomac's reply:
Thank you Kristine! Your wedding was beautiful and we do enjoyed being a part of your special day! Happy memories 😊 -

When my now husband and I first looked at Riverside on the Potomac, we knew it was the one for us. Suzi and Travis were awesome to work with and so welcoming. There are so many beautiful little corners for special moments and the barn was STUNNING in person. Pictures do not do it justice. We have so many gorgeous photos in front of their beautiful log chapel and I will cherish forever. If you are looking for the perfect fall wedding venue, look no further.Riverside on the Potomac's reply:
Thank you Claire! What a beautiful bride, handsome groom, stunning gown, beautiful day from A to Z, a joy for Travis and I to be a part of your day! ❤️ -

My husband and I fell in love with Riverside on the Potomac as soon as we drove up to the venue. We knew this was the place for us. The expansive property has beautiful scenic views and offers different backdrops. We had our ceremony at their terrace and patio. We used the stable gallery for our cocktail hour and historic barn for our reception. All of our guests gushed over how beautiful, unique and charming our venue was. The photos were beautiful, and our guests had so much fun. Suzi and Travis were wonderful to work with. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this venue. My husband and I were so lucky to have our wedding here. -

Riverside on the Potomac is the most beautiful venue! My husband and I were married there this past weekend, and all of our guests could not stop raving about the uniqueness and beauty of the property. There is plenty of space to hold all elements of your wedding day on site (pre-ceremony pictures, ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, etc.). It is very quintessential "Virginia countryside", and we could not be happier with the decision to get married there. The property owners (Suzi and Travis) are just wonderful and so flexible to work with. They took away any stress that typically comes along with dealing with an event venue. If you're looking for a wedding planner or day-of coordinator, hire Delia-Anne Biondi! She lives on the property and knows ROTP like the back of her hand :) We 100% recommend this venue.Riverside on the Potomac's reply:
Thank you Despina, you AlL were delightful to work with, so fun to be a part of your special day! Have many years of joy together and FUN too! -

Historic Charm & Elegance
Suzi, Travis and the team did a wonderful job helping us - from selecting the venue all the way through the Big Day we loved working with them! Suzi is a veteran in the wedding industry and makes you feel right at home when visiting the venue with her warm demeanor and genuine smile. Even with the uncertainty of Covid, everyone at Riverside remained flexible and easy to work with. The day of our wedding brought additional uncertainty with unseasonably cold weather (45°F on Memorial Day Weekend!), but the Riverside team helped make transitioning the ceremony indoors a smooth process. The venue itself is top notch and the historical elements give it a unique charm that was enjoyed by the bridal party and guests alike. Guests haven’t stopped commenting to us about the beauty of the venue. We highly recommend the venue and the Riverside on the Potomac team for your wedding! -
