About The Riverhouse

In the heart of Clarke Quay, The Riverhouse is a distinctive heritage wedding venue set within a restored 1870s riverside mansion. Traditional Chinese architecture meets contemporary interiors, creating a striking backdrop for modern Chinese weddings by the river.

Exchange vows in the romantic alfresco courtyard — an intimate yet vibrant riverfront setting for outdoor solemnisations. The celebration then flows across the venue's distinct spaces: a modern Chinese banquet at Mimi, and an after-party at Yang for a seamless journey from solemnisation to soirée.

Weddings here are curated end-to-end by 1-Host, with planning, coordination, and trusted vendors handled for you. For couples seeking Oriental charm, heritage character, and a contemporary take on Chinese tradition, The Riverhouse is a celebration that is culturally rich yet refreshingly modern.
