I was in a wedding at this venue and it was absolutely charming! The grounds are lovely and made a beautiful backdrop for all of the wedding photos. My favorite part about this place is the inside of the barn which was magically transformed into the perfect setting for the reception. Most guests wouldn't know this, but the barn has really cool rooms for the bridal party and groomsmen to get ready/hang out in. The girls' space is sweet and has room for ladies to gather, relax, and primp. The guys' space is more about keeping the guys busy and has a foosball table! The owners are kind and made us feel right at home and made sure the happy couple stayed happy at all times. Thumbs up for On River's Edge! read more

Our August wedding was magical thanks to Pam and Bob Brown and their wonderful venue on the Little Spokane River. We visited six wedding sites and knew the minute we walked up the driveway that "this was the place" for us. The Brown's property allowed us the many little locations we wanted for our very personal and detailed celebration. Our loose theme was "woodland bohemian," incorporating live music and a family-style summer supper, served outside, then dancing in the barn afterwards. Pam graciously answered our questions through the process via phone and email and we visited a few times before setup to take inventories of the many items they provide, as well as measurements for our decor. -- This place is really unique in that, along with the rental fee, which is in line or below other venues, the Browns' offer their clients tables, chairs, dozens of mason jars, candle stands, urns, chalk boards, and more to use as you wish. We decided to use their chairs for our ceremony by the arbor and rented wood chairs for our dinner tables, which worked well. We used their tables and rented table clothes, which also saved us money. The grounds are wonderful and we found that having the enormous lawn with games for the few kids who attended was fantastic and allowed their parents to really enjoy themselves. Pam Brown was on hand throughout the evening and worked as hard as anyone there - it was great to have her nearby to let us know where things went during cleanup and to help things along. Our wedding celebration is something we will never, ever forget because of the special unique setting and amenities of On River's Edge. read more

Wedding time in a mostly family-do-it-ourselves style. The place was perfect for us. A good setting for a late afternoon, early fall wedding. It was nice to have both inside and outside seating. Not great lighting indoors for the cake cutting photos, but I'm not a professional photographer. The grass could have been a little more even making it hard in heels or for the older folks, but they all managed and we all had a great time! read more

What a beautiful location! We just got back from our friends wedding at On Rivers Edge. It was truly a magical evening. The ceremony was outside in the most beautiful setting of trees and flowers, and the reception was in this fabulous BARN! So much fun!! Everything seemed to be flawless. I was so taken with the setting and the attention to detail, I just had to make a review. read more

Recently our wedding was held here. While the grounds were pretty, the owners were very hard to work with. They changed the contract on us twice and overall made our wedding a very stressful time. I would advise finding another barn venue. read more

I attended a wedding here recently. The old dairy barn presents itself well among the beautiful well tended landscaping. Wonderful ambiance!! Very charming!!! read more

Bob and Pam at On River's Edge hosted my son's wedding. You could not ask for a more attentive, professional and hard working couple to make your vision come true. They were always available to answer questions, provide suggestions and supply whatever item you might have forgotten. In essence, you get the equivalent of a wedding coordinator along with renting the venue. And what a venue it is! A perfectly manicured lawn (Pam was on her knees pulling weeds the day before the wedding) is bordered by a lazy stream and populated with beautiful, shade bearing trees - the most beautiful being a full weeping willow right next to the gazebo. The rest of the grounds are tastefully decorated with vintage knick-knacks, collectables, farm implements and well tended flora and fauna. The barn is a spotless two-story affair with strung bulbs across the ceiling and an adjoining kitchen/prep area. The bride room is ever so charming and can handle a good sized bridle party. Unfortunately, my description or the photos posted by others will never be able to do this wonderful location the justice it is due. However beautiful it may look in pictures, it is more so in reality. Our son's wedding was absolutely perfect and every detail and need were met by Pam and Bob. These truly are two of the nicest people I have ever met and I am so thankful to them for all that they did to help make our son's (and new daughter's!) wedding a most memorable and joyous event. read more

Gorgeous location for weddings. We had the ceremony under the wooden pergola and the cocktail hour on the lawn. The reception was inside the big vintage barn. It was a lovely, rustic setting for our big day. read more

"If you like owners that hover over and around you constantly and help themselves to the catered food and open dressing room & bathroom doors without knocking while people are changing or using the restroom while giving you no room to breathe or have fun without their constant annoying presence, then this is the perfect venue for your wedding. Also, if you don't mind cleaning the dusty barn and bathrooms and dressing rooms of dirt and cobwebs the day before on their schedule, and forgetful owners who don't show up for meetings on their own rescheduled times, but are there the whole day of the wedding reminding you of the contract details and generally being a killjoy and stressing the bride and groom and all the bridal party and parents out to the point of putting a damper on the evening, then this is the place for you. The owner also stated to a guest that he would have punched the bride's sister out if she had been a man when confronted by her about walking in on people in private areas. Class act, Bob! $2500 to rent and be micro-managed and brow-beaten about the contract details and have your privacy invaded the whole night while they help themselves to the food and cake is a priceless bargain if you like that kind of "private" venue. I would find a different place if I had to do it over. Bad publicity and word-of-mouth will eventually be the demise of this place." read more

I have been contemplating writing a review for this venue for a very long time, but after hearing horrible things from others, I just had to make sure everyone knew how horrific this venue truly is. My husband and I were married there in September of 2012. At first, the owners of the venue were super nice. Even gave us fresh eggs to take home when we first met them. Then crazy-town happened. Oh, were shall I begin... At first we were told the barn could seat up to about 175, then after we invited everyone we were told 125...awesome. Everything was ok during the planning phase, luckily my wedding planner had the pleasure of interacting with Pam, when Pam decided to actually email her back, which was a rarity. I really started seeing the crazy in the owners when I mentioned that my bridesmaids and I were going to have mimosas in the bridal suite. Pam said that by Washington State Law I had to have a licensed bartender pouring. I thought that was odd so I contacted the Washington State Liquor Board, and they sent me a nice email, thanking me for checking with them, but they said it was perfectly legal to not have a bartender pour champagne in the bridal suite. I told Pam, and she got very defensive, and she said that I better print out that email in case an officer came by the day of the wedding...sure Pam...so I did. During this time, my wedding planner also had another bride who was getting married there. My planner said that the bride went to a scheduled meeting with the owners at the venue, and the moment she got out of her car Pam's husband got in her face and started yelling at her for no reason, her dad had to take him aside and deescalate the situation. From then on, the bride refused to even talk to the owners, and my wedding planner had to handle every little piece of communication. Back to my wedding. The day of our rehearsal, Pam's husband must not have realized that we would be there because he was swearing at himself rather loudly, saying that no one was supposed to be there...odd. Then, the day of the wedding, when my awesome caterer arrived with his bartender, Pam got into it with him because she thought he did not bring the right kind of bartender, my caterer had to sit her down and calm her down, letting her know he knew what he was doing. Then during the reception, she kept telling my DJ, who is pretty much the best, and most respected DJ in the area, to turn the music down in the barn. You're talking about a DJ with solid knowledge of all the noise ordinances, and years and years of successful weddings in his resume. So he was really upset with her because she was not allowing him to do his job to the best of his abilities. As people danced, the barn got super hot, so my friends were trying to not die of heat exhaustion, so they were opening the barn doors to let some air in...apparently that's a no-no in Pam's book since it lets the music out of the barn...so she kept getting into it with my guests, telling them to keep the doors all shut. How incredibly rude. I could keep going all night about this place. All I can tell you if you are looking into having your wedding here, please, please, please ask around about them. You will hear horrible things. Since my wedding, my coworker has gone to a wedding there where guests were treated horribly by the venue owners, and my boss said his neighbor's wedding was destroyed by the owners, and Pam's husband even threatened family members with bodily harm, which does not surprise me. To the owners of this venue: Stop doing weddings, you have no idea what you are doing. To anyone looking for a venue: I hear Trezzi Family Farms is great...or really anywhere but this place. read more

I along many of my friends attended a Wedding Vow Renewal, which was a delightful afternoon. River's Edge was a lovely place...the grounds are filled with various flowers, and trees which make you feel comfortable. The Barn is spacious and can be used for many events. Pamela Brown is a most gracious host who made the day special and enjoyable. My husband and I were quests for the event and we enjoyed the grounds and Barn that we want to return...and have an event ourselves for it is such a charming place. I reccomend River's Edge. read more
