The venue was stunning and I’m so happy to have gotten so many photos with the city background as well as the cliffs background. The coordinator was very helpful and communicated fairly well. My only reason for not giving a 5 star rating was that it is a difficult venue to get to so if you have many people who are elderly or disabled it is possible for them to get there but may be extra work depending on the person. We had to walk more than 500m to get to the closest point to order a Uber.

Beautiful venue on the Brisbane River. After three challenging reschedules due to border closures, the wedding day and coordination was almost flawless. Highly recommend this location for the ceremony and reception. Just make sure delivery drivers for stocking the venue know how to get there in advance and aren't going to turn their back on you the day before the wedding because they don't know how to drive to the venue. This is not a criticism of the venue, but just a heads up.

Our Ceremony & Reception at RiverLife Kangaroo Point was a complete dream!! From the Staff to the Service to the Venue was 5 stars and beyond!! Our event Coordinator Kayla Gutierrez is the real MVP! She was exceptional! She held our hands throughout the whole year of planning, replied to our many many emails, answered our many many phone calls. Her communication, organisation and calmness assured us we were in such great hands from start to finish. I cannot thank you enough Kayla and RiverLife for bringing our Wedding dream day into a beautiful reality. The venue for a Wedding Ceremony & Wedding Reception is fantastic - the 'Golden Hour' as the sun is going down looking towards Brisbane City over looking the Brisbane River is the money shot! This location is unbeatable - the most beautiful venue in Brisbane CBD - cannot fault or beat it!

Riverlife is a beautiful venue on the water and perfect for both the ceremony and reception. We had the cocktail style reception and the food was delicious and very prompt. We had the silver beverage package and had a good selection of beer and wine. However there may have been a lack of communication as we paid for a drinks extension which was not applied and some guests paid for there drinks and my Dad had to out on a Tab to cover peoples drinks. I did get a refund though for the money my Dad put on but I was a bit annoyed as we had paid for that service and we didn't receive it. Our event manager was good but I did feel in the weeks leading up to the wedding that we were chasing her up for replies and invoices. Overall very happy with the wedding venue.

Riverlife was the perfect location to have our Wedding reception! The sunset Marquee was beautiful and the perfect size to hold our 100 guests. Everyone raved about how beautiful the location was along the water and how beautiful it looked at night with all the fairy lights. Our event organiser, Kayla, was great to work with and answered the million questions I had for her. The services they provided was exceptional and I was beyond happy with how everything turned out on the day! Would definitely recommend!
