What visitors say about the RiverCenter and Adler Theatre.

"We were SO impressed with everything! Thank you River Center! Working with Jennifer and Chef Mike was phenomenal. Our guests were raving about the food and venue! The appetizers, OMG! Hernan and I were so happy with the food, impeccable service, and environment. Thank you a million times!! PS: The staff was extremely friendly, professional, well-trained, and fun!!"

"I would like to thank Jennifer so much for the amazing venue for Gracyn and Kyle’s reception Saturday. It was simply gorgeous! The food and atmosphere were fantastic! She and her entire crew were also amazing to work with! Everything ran smoothly and so efficiently. But really what made the night extra special was the kindness of Jennifer's staff. They all seemed like they also were having a great time and genuinely wanted to be there (which nowadays is not usually the case). One lady in particular was so attentive to Gracyn! She took her dinner plate from her to carry back to her seat for her and stopped with her and patiently waited while Gracyn stopped to greet/chat with the many guests she passed along the way. She also checked on Gracyn throughout the night to see if she needed anything. I so with we would have gotten her name! Please let your staff know how appreciative we are and that they are all not only great at their job but also wonderful human beings! "

"Overall, the event was extremely successful! Exhibit looked and felt busy. Food presentation and taste was exceptional. Staffing assistance was very helpful. Please share our deep appreciation to yourself and the entire team. We look forward to returning in future!"

"Producing a large event can be a daunting task and stressful to say the least. For the past 8 years, we have held our largest fundraiser at the RiverCenter. Their staff are professional, timely, organized and always offering input on how to improve each year. We appreciate their partnership and are very thankful for their expertise that allows us to bring our premiere event to the Quad Cities!"

"I just wanted to say that literally everyone involved this past weekend and prior to the event was incredible. We have never felt so welcome, and so appreciated as we did. The staff was there for us throughout the entire process and extremely helpful in making everything come together and run smooth. I seem to get all of the credit for hosting these shows when in reality it takes an army for it to run so well. We greatly appreciate the partnership we have built and we wanted you to know how awesome you all were. So thank you again for a memorable event for so many people!"

"Jennifer, Chef Mike, and the staff at the River Center were nothing short of amazing for our wedding! The food Chef Mike prepared was phenomenal and all of our guests gave so many compliments about the food. The staff was attentive to our guests and were quick to accommodate and serve. I also cannot say enough good things about Jennifer - her attention to detail is unmatched & she worked extremely hard to make sure everything was the way we wanted. She was so patient with all of the questions we had and throughout the entire process of planning. We are incredibly grateful to her for the work she put in to make sure our day was perfect and special. I HIGHLY recommend using the River Center as your wedding venue - you will not be disappointed! "

"The RiverCenter staff was professional, welcoming, and the location was the perfect venue for our conference. Jennifer Benge answered all of our emails--and there were a lot of them--with patience and was always willing to meet every request. The food was delicious and the staff served it in a timely manner. I would highly recommend the RiverCenter to any organization planning a conference! "

"Thank you so much for being a part of our special day! It has truly been the best day of our lives and we couldn’t have imagined the day going as smoothly without your help! The entire day was everything we imagined and more! Thanks again!"

"The Great River Showcase is one of the most fun show choir competitions of the season. I attended every year as a competitor and it was so well organized. The event space is also fantastic; it was cool being able to perform on the Adler stage. "

"My wife and I booked tickets to see Charlie Berens. We reserved tickets for the upper balcony, but did not realize at the time that there was no elevator to that level. My wife has serious mobility issues, and this was her first night out with a cane. We arrived, and realized that my wife would be unable to climb the stairs up to our seats. As were talking about heading home, two wonderful women on staff overheard us. They saw our distress and actually found us open seats on the ground floor! They were so sweet, and so eager to make sure that we would be able to enjoy the show. It brought tears to our eyes, and we will never forget the kindness that was shown to us. Thank you so much to the staff for everything they did. You made my wife's night, and turned a nightmare into a moment of pure grace and joy. "

"We had the best wedding reception and the best day of our lives at the RiverCenter! Working with Jennifer leading up to our wedding was such a great experience, she answered all of our questions and helped us make decisions based on her experience and expertise. She worked with us, as well as our vendors, every step of the way. The Friday before our wedding we were able to set up our space, which she was around for in case anything last minute came up. On our wedding day she was there to ensure everything ran smoothly! When we arrived for the reception she made sure we got some food from cocktail hour in us and went and got a drink for us as soon as we got the the head table. We continuously got asked who catered our dinner, which was the best dinner ever and catered by the RiverCenter’s own kitchen and chef. Chef was out during dinner and made sure everything was to his standards! The staff and bartenders were SO kind and also made sure that we had everything we needed throughout the night. At the end of the day, we would absolutely choose to have our wedding reception at the RiverCenter again and recommend it to anyone wanting a great experience in a great location! "
