Riverside Park

My wife Madison and I had our wedding here last month and UEC did not disappoint. MaryBeth was a joy to work with and she ensured that everything worked perfectly for our big day. From communicating with our day-of-coordinator to answering all of our many questions. We received so many compliments on how beautiful the space was; with the ceremony at the outdoor amphitheater, cocktail hour outside under the tent to the reception indoors. If anyone is looking for a venue to host a large gathering, come to Urban Ecology Center – Riverside Park. You will not regret it, can not thank the team there enough for how special you made our day 😊.
