To hold our wedding here was a dream come true. The professionalism and communication is top notch. The space is comfortable and inviting, and the hosts are very friendly, welcoming and easy to work with. If you’re looking for a venue to hold a wedding or event, book the Riverside Grill at River Runners! 10/10 highly recommended!"

"My husband and I got married at The Beach at River Runners in 2023 and it was such a special day for us. The venue is beautiful. The owners are wonderful and easy to work with. The general magic of being next to the river is easily captured. The food was delicious! This is a such a happy place for us!"

“Incredible experience. Riverside Colorado treated our day like it was their own. Spectacular setting, amazing staff and attention to every detail. It's really hard to describe how beautiful the venue is, with gentle currents flowing past a backdrop of Colorado's tallest peaks. For mountain venues, nothing comes close, and we'd choose it again a thousand times over. Highest recommendation."
