Riviera Waterfront Mansion - Massapequa

We had our wedding at the Riviera this August and it was an absolute dream. The staff went above and beyond to make sure our wedding was special. The maitre d made sure our guests were well taken care of. I would highly recommend this venue! The rustic decor is so beautiful as well as the water views. Also they only host one wedding at a time so it really allows you to enjoy the property!

The Riviera was our dream venue! Throughout the entire process they were super responsive, accommodating, and helpful! Upon our arrival their staff was ready for whatever the evening threw at them. The bridal attendants made sure my husband and I were taken care of, the bartenders worked so hard the entire night to deliver the best service to our guests. The food was fantastic and we heard from a lot of our guests that they’ve never seen a cocktail hour with so many great food choices. They helped pack up all of our decor at the end of the night making for a seamless experience. Highly recommend this venue, especially for a more rustic wedding theme! Wish I could give more than 5 stars!!!

My wife and I got married at the Riviera in March. Beautiful venue and wonderful staff that really goes above and beyond to make everything great. Highly recommend!

Riviera is absolutely romantic venue for a wedding. It’s beautiful and the staff is outstanding. Food is amazing along with the service. It’s a MUST SEE.

It has been my dream to get married at The Riviera since I was 9 years old and I just had my dreams come true! I was a flower girl in my uncle’s wedding at The Riviera in 2000 and I’ve had my heart set on it ever since that beautiful June day. The venue is as gorgeous today as it was then, the food is delicious, the Viennese hour can’t be beat, I absolutely love the gazebo overlooking the water, their preferred vendors are excellent, and the staff treats your wedding day as though it is just as personally important to them.We worked mostly with Tara throughout the planning process and we all loved her so much. She is so down to earth, personable, accommodating, and helpful. We joked several times that she’s part of the family now. She really worked with us to make it a day we could afford without skimping on any details. We often brought both sets of parents with us to our meetings because we wanted them to be part of the excitement with us, and she treated everyone so wonderfully, involving them in the discussion and taking questions, thoughts, and opinions.As we got closer to the wedding we worked more with Irene because Tara deserves a few days off! . She was so joyful and excited to walk me through the processes, and when I came to bring my decorations and extra items a few days in advance, she let me set up things exactly how I wanted them and then took a picture so she could recreate exactly what I envisioned. Irene was so warm and friendly and she made me feel like she cared about our wedding just as much as we did.Our maître d was Megan and she is just so cool and nice. She really knows how to command the attention of a group of people to make things efficient but also still fun! I immediately trusted that Megan had everything under control, and she absolutely did. When we had our rehearsal dinner, there was a downpour across pretty much the entire island except at The Riviera full sunshine! and most of our bridal party was late. Megan never made us feel rushed when it came time to start and she filled the waiting time by asking questions about our vision for the day and taking notes. When everyone got there, she was able to efficiently take us through a rehearsal twice outside and once inside. On the day of our wedding she made everything run smoothly. I so enjoyed working with her!My bridal attendant was Christina and – true to her title – she was SO attentive. She was kind and friendly and made sure my every need was met. She bustled my dress three times because I kept picking up and shaking it while I danced, she always made sure I had a glass of water apparently weddings make me thirsty and always asked if I wanted my favorite alcoholic drink too prosecco . She and Megan also made sure my husband !! and I had a few minutes alone together during cocktail hour so we could eat and decompress from the ceremony. We really appreciated that! She and Megan also sent us home with LOTS of leftover food and goodies. I will be eating cake and cookies for days to come!Another thing that I really loved about The Riviera is that there are SO MANY PLACES for event guests to go. The main ballroom is large and spacious not to mention with a gorgeous view but there are also lots of tables and chairs outside if guests want to get some fresh air, and the cocktail room by the bar is another great option if guests want to get some quieter time away from the music. I loved that this venue would cater to every type of guest.I cannot recommend The Riviera more highly. They were so wonderful to work with through every single step of the process and they made all my wedding dreams come true. If you’re wondering “is it worth it?” the answer is YES.
