My dream wedding
I had my dream wedding at Riverstone on the Crowe this past August. Where do I begin? The venue is absolutely gorgeous. We tired the knot over looking the river, and it really couldn't have been any more perfect. It's the perfect combination of being in nature, with nice tall trees around you, while also looking very high end. The pictures will show that!
Gerri and Terry really went above and beyond my expectations, and made sure our day was everything we wanted it to be. The ceremony was very classy and professional, and the reception was an absolute blast. The catering they recommended for our dinner was great, and we all enjoyed the dinner and dancing under a high end ballroom style tent.
They included many small details like a photo booth during the reception, and the firework walk down the steps from the chapel which was one of my favorite parts.
If you are looking for an outdoor wedding, but also want it to look classy, Riverstone on the Crowe is the perfect venue for you. -

Riverstone on the Crowe
Attention to detail, personalized service, very responsive and kind owners and operators of this marriage venue. It truly is the perfect setting for a memorable wedding. It was a full 7 hour package which was an amazing value for my son and daughter-in-law’s dream wedding. -

Gerri and Terri are incredible! Our wedding reflected that they love what they do. They think on their feet when things (inevitably) can go awry, and they came up with creative solutions for every worry we had. The backdrop - oh my goodness - the pictures are amazing, but they STILL don’t do it justice. Al Pettman lives right by the venue and we hired him as our photographer. He and his wife captured the day perfectly and they had a blast with it too! It was everything I’ve ever dreamed of and more for our wedding day. I have been trying to come up with the words to explain just how incredible they are and their venue - it’s impossible. Our dogs were in the wedding and at the reception, our first dance was a rick roll, we had a bunch of military and first responders with colourful language and our odd sense of humour - they embraced every idea we had without judgement, and gave us more ideas that meshed with our vision perfectly. A couple of examples:
- they suggested a sand ceremony for my husband, step son and I. It’s a great momento and was a beautiful part of the ceremony.
- Terry suggested using my veil as a backdrop for our sweetheart table - she is a genius!
- many, many more… this review would be a novel!
Our caterer was Dockside Bistro, they went off menu and provided a spectacular brunch for our guests. On top of all that - it was SO MUCH FUN!! The photobooth was a hit, the fire pit and the yard games were a blast. We hired FrostBites - a local family with an ice cream bike! Our guests are STILL talking about how much fun they had - some have said that it’s the best wedding they’ve ever attended. If you are looking for an outdoor venue with a fun, organized, limited stress planning process - you’ve found it. This is your sign! -

From the very beginning, Terry and Gerri were super helpful. I wrote a message looking for information on the venue and they were right on the ball, calling me a couple hours later. We fell in love with the property on our first visit. Terry and Gerri were very personable and friendly to interact with and knew what they were doing which was helpful since we did not!
We were able to set up the night before, however there were a few things we were supposed to put together the day of, but ran late and weren't able to. When I arrived it was all set up thanks to Terry and Gerri. For our ceremony, Gerri officiated our marriage while Terry played the ceremony music. It was perfect and on point!
During the reception, we realized we had forgotten little things like cake plates! Terry assured me it would be fine as I started to stress. She went to her home and gathered some styrofoam plates and started handing out pieces of cake like it was planned that way.
The photo booth was a big hit with our guests. It was great having so many fun photos to bring home with us to remember the day while we wait for professional photos.
We had 50 people, maxing out the number of people and they handled it with ease. The seating in the tent was a bit tight with so many people so I would recommend only 4 or 5 tables to allow more room for walking (we had 6). The tent was absolutely stunning though and it worked so well with our décor.
I would 100% recommend Terry and Gerri at Riverstone on the Crowe. It was a magical experience and I am so happy we were able to tie the knot with these two on our team. -

We had a fantastic experience with Terry and Gerri at Riverstone on the Crowe. They were super supportive and encouraging throughout the whole planning process and worked so incredibly hard to ensure that we had the absolute best wedding day. The venue itself is gorgeous, outdoors, and right next to the Crowe River. There are lights hung through the trees that make the whole place look like an enchanted grove in a forest. Loved the photo booth and the music and the ceremony itself was perfect and expertly done. Gerri and Terry offered a lot of flexibility and were able to help with many of the logistical issues one experiences when planning a wedding. Thank you again for all of your hard work you two! -

We were lucky enough to be one of the first couples to get married at Riverstone on the Crowe. While the venue is fairly new, the owners Terry and Gerri have a WEALTH of experience with weddings and made sure everything from perfect from booking all the way to the day of the wedding. The venue is absolutely stunning - rustic but with all the amenities you need. If you are looking for an outdoor micro wedding venue, this is the place to pick. Terry and Gerri go out of their way to make sure that everything goes smoothly and that the bride and groom and their families and friends have a perfect day. Could not speak more highly about the venue or Terry and Gerri. There will be many wonderful weddings to come at Riverstone on the Crowe. -

Our experience getting married at Riverstone on the Crowe was nothing short of incredible.
Our journey to planning our wedding during a pandemic was a challenging one. We had several negative experiences with other venues simply to book appointments or phone calls. Whereas these other venues made us feel like we had to take a number and they would get back to us in do time. The owners of Riverstone on the Crowe, Terry and Gerri, made us feel like their priority and would answer all questions the same day if not within minutes of our asking.
When we booked this venue we got more than we bargained for. It felt like we had hired our own personal wedding planners. As Terry and Gerri were so helpful with ideas, vendors and solutions to any problem we encountered. They were hands on with our other vendors to ensure that everything would run smoothly for our day. They also helped us plan small details and important aspects of a wedding that we had not considered ourselves. We truly felt like their valued guests. It was so easy to see that Terry and Gerri both have a passion for weddings.
The venue itself is phenomenal. The forest is stunning, with Terry and Gerri maintaining and enhancing its natural beauty. The river is so peaceful and provides an intimate and private ceremony site. The tent was beautiful and large with high openings, which made it feel like you were still within the forest. It was also wonderful to be able to see the fireflies at night from the tent, which felt magical.
It was also a relief to have a venue that provided so many different services, including decor, linens, music, a photo booth, MC and officiant. It allowed us to focus on our day, but also felt like we were getting the highest quality service without compromising. The music was thoughtful and personalized, with no lulls or interruptions. Terry did an amazing job MCing for us, which allowed our guests to focus on having fun and engaging in our wedding. Gerri was a thoughtful and well spoken officiant and truly made our ceremony special.
Most important to note is how accommodating Terry and Gerri are. It had always been our dream to get married in a forest, and other forest venues we found fell short of being accessible to those of limited mobility. Terry and Gerri assured us that our guests with mobility issues could be driven right up to the ceremony site. Then the day of our wedding we found they provided us with a golf cart (and driver) so that our guests could easily move from one location to another. This type of thoughtfulness is so rare and touching, and simply not something we saw with other venues.
I could not recommend Terry and Gerri more for their wedding venue Riverstone on the Crowe, or any of their other wedding service through their company Homemade Jam! We feel so grateful to have had such a beautiful day thanks to this wonderful couple and their beautiful venue.
