Let us help you create a Memorable Event!
Looking for the ambience of an historic building with all of the comfort and amenities of a new building?  Then, look no further than The River Room for your special event.

Event Services:

Guest Capacity:  The River Room's 9,000 sq. ft. ballroom can seat up to 400+ guests comfortably but can also be arranged for a much smaller event.  For a standing reception without tables and chairs, the capacity is 600. See below for floor plan.

Tables and Seating: The River Room has 275 Chavari chairs and twenty-six 60” round tables and 8' rectangular tables. 

For larger events with more than 275 people, additional chairs and tables must be rented from a rental company. 

Additional Amenities: Bride’s room, 8' x 16' platform stage, a 750 sq. ft. hardwood dance floor, bar, and prep kitchen.

Sound and Presentation System: 26 speakers throughout the room, a wireless microphone, a 6-disk CD player, and a 7’ x 12’ power screen with ceiling mounted projector to show Power Point presentations or slide shows.  Use of these items is included in the facility rental price. 

Accessibility: The facility is fully handicap accessible with an elevator, and parking is located both east and south of the building.

Food & Beverage Services:

Catering: The Buffalo Grill’s Executive Chef Logan McGear can help you plan an appetizer buffet, a served buffet or a served dinner for your wedding reception or a gourmet boxed lunch or buffet lunch for your business meeting or conference.  The client may provide the wedding or anniversary cake if desired.  If you prefer, we can also work with the caterer of your choice.

Bar Service:  The River Room has a liquor license and provides all bar service.  Clients can request a Hosted Bar (client incurs all charges) or a Cash Bar (guests pay).  

Large events (weddings and parties) serving alcoholic beverages must have an off duty security officer in attendance ($75 for four hours) and all events will conform to Kansas Liquor laws. 

The River Room is a tobacco free facility.  Smoking is allowed on the 1st floor covered porch.
