If you're looking for a warm and inviting venue for your wedding that isn't just another barn, you'll love Riviera Vines. It's a vineyard in Christiansburg with various backdrops including the tasting room, the outdoor patio, and the lawn area. The thing I love most about Riviera Vines is the thoughtful modern decor. From the flowers hanging from the ceiling to the natural vines that adorn the patio, so many beautiful little details add to the experience. The owner has a lot of additional options and she and her staff go above and beyond to make the process smooth and stress-free. This is the perfect venue for intimate ceremonies, small weddings, bridal brunches, baby showers, and so much more.
