The River Room
About
Overview & Vibe
The River Room sits ten metres from the Swan at Charles Court Reserve, Nedlands — a light-filled pavilion in riverside parkland where weddings unfold to the sound of water and sailing boats. It’s one of Perth’s quietest waterfront secrets.
Setting & Style
Couples marry on the riverbank and stroll across the grass to their reception — high ceilings, an alfresco veranda for pre-dinner drinks over the water, and room styling, settings and menus customised to each budget. The room seats up to 110 with cocktail celebrations to 180, and marquees on the adjacent parklands scale things up for bigger parties.
Ideal For
Couples wanting an intimate riverside wedding — ceremony and reception steps apart in green parkland, without big-venue prices.
The Need-to-Knows
- Seats up to 110 guests (wedding receptions typically 50–100 seated) or up to 180 cocktail-style; marquee options on adjacent parklands for larger events.
- Ceremony on the banks of the river, then stroll to the reception.
- Fully licensed with on-site catering; alfresco veranda with water views; AV available.
- Charles Court Reserve, The Esplanade, Nedlands — between the river and leafy Nedlands.
Standout Feature
Ten metres from the Swan — riverbank vows, veranda sunsets and parkland photos without moving the party once.
