Exceeded expectations!

The grounds are very well maintained, from the entrance through the entire course, and because of this, our photos came out phenomenal. They even met with my photographer before the wedding to show here where the best pictures can be taken!
Happy hour was outside and had a wonderful flow with a bar outside and inside! No one had to wait in line for a drink!!
The staff!! Every single one of them was extremely helpful, quickly responded to emails and questions, offered suggestions of aspects I hadn't thought of, and very enthusiastic! They all showed signs of enjoying their job, which made it a pleasure to work with them!!
The ballroom is elegant, classy, and offers a timeless space to celebrate. The carpets were clean, the dance floor was nicely set in the middle of the room so everyone can enjoy it from all around,
The food... oh the food!!! It was AMAZING!! The taste testing was EXACTLY what we got for the dinner. I am drooling just reminiscing about it!
Worth every penny - from start to finish!!! We will forever be grateful of all the time, effort, professionalism, and care that GRGC put into our wedding!!

Highly recommend!

Just had our wedding here and we couldn’t have been happier. Beautiful venue and great service. Our coordinators were wonderful. They helped so much. It rained on our day and they were so quick to still make everything so beautiful. We are still getting compliments on our wedding. Highly recommend!

Excellent wedding venue

As a photographer , I have to say, that this location is one of my favorites.
Suzie Gigante is an excellent wedding coordinator, she is on top of everything and makes the shot there as easy as possible.
Great River Golf Club offers a great variety of views for photos easily accessible with the golf cart provided by club.
We highly recommend that great wedding venue!
