Our wedding at The View was nothing short of amazing. The staff, especially Jimmy and Courtney, were beyond helpful in planning every step of the way. We dropped off all decor a few days before and Courtney and team took care of everything. Everyone RAVED about the food, and of course the view on the water. My husband actually arrived for the ceremony on boat with his groomsmen, we had our band and dance floor outside, and ended the reception with some of the groomsmen and me (the bride) jumping in the water! I can't tell you how much we loved everyone at The View, and how flexible they were with accommodating everything we wanted in our wedding.

We had an exceptional wedding at the Riverview! John, Jimmy and the entire staff gave us the most special day we could ever dream of! The Riverview is our favorite place to be!
We are so happy that we chose to have our wedding at the View in Oakdale!! Absolutely stunning views and the best staff you could ask for - Amanda our matire d' was amazing!!! And the owner Jimmy is phenomanal - Food was delicious and everyone had an amazing time
Great outdoor wedding venue. They are very accommodating and had absolutely amazing food. If you chose the view ask about going on the boat to take beach pictures. The beach pictures came out amazing. All the staff was great and made our day perfect. And the view is affordable for the bride and groom doing it all themselves
My *new* Father and Mother-in-Law hosted our rehearsal dinner here at the View. The guest list expanded significantly, and the crew at the View worked with them to ensure that we had enough room for everyone and that we also felt like one party instead of several, despite the large number. Our wedding was at the Bourne Mansion, and since both restaurants are owned by Lessing's, the staff worked to make sure that our menu choices differed from the wedding menu. The food was predictably amazing (as it usually is!) and the service was top-notch. Everyone had a great time and loved the place, even in the off-season.
