My husband and I had our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception at The River Center (North Side) on 4/27/24. It was a great evening, and I'm so glad we chose this venue. The staff at The River Center ensured that everything went off without a hitch, including a room flip during cocktail hour. Aside from all the logistics running smoothly, food and beverage was great. The bartenders were fun and friendly. Our guests expressed how much they enjoyed the food. Overall, I'm so happy to have been married at The River Center and would certainly recommend it to any engaged couples looking for a wedding venue in Des Moines!
