Sean has DJ'd a wedding here
Le Riverbend is a private riverside property on the Gatineau River. I played it in 2026, and it suits a small wedding weekend with your party staying on site.

The room
Right on the water
- A private buyout on the Gatineau River, often for the whole wedding weekend.
- It sleeps around 30 to 40.
- There is no house PA, so I plan sound across the riverside, the deck and the indoor room.
The day in order
Riverside vows to indoor dancing
Dinner
Dinner moves inside if the weather turns.
Dance floor
Dancing is in the indoor room, after guests move in from the deck.
Why couples choose it
Time to move inside before dancing
With a small guest list that knows each other, I keep cocktails on the deck low-key and leave time for guests to move inside before dancing starts.

Le Riverbend FAQs
Is Le Riverbend indoor or outdoor?
Both. I set up sound for the riverside ceremony, outdoor cocktails and dinner on the deck, and rustic-elegant indoor reception room when night or weather moves guests inside.
Can we book the whole property for the wedding weekend?
Most couples do. Le Riverbend is a private buyout, often for a full weekend with the wedding party staying on site. I plan around that weekend booking.
Where does the ceremony happen?
Along the Gatineau River near Lac-Sainte-Marie. I use dedicated wireless sound for vows, separate from reception sound.
How many guests can Le Riverbend hold?
Le Riverbend publishes no fixed capacity and suits a small guest list. Accommodation sleeps around 30 to 40. Confirm headcount with the venue; I scale sound and lighting accordingly.
Can you cover ceremony and reception?
Yes. I plan ceremony, cocktail hour and reception together. Your quote confirms agreed MC duties, including entrance, speech and first-dance cues across the spaces.
Do you travel to Wakefield area, Quebec?
Yes. I cover Wakefield and the wider Outaouais, north of Ottawa on the Gatineau side, as part of my normal travel area.
What does a wedding DJ at Le Riverbend cost?
I quote after a short call, once I know your hours, your venue and how much of the day is covered. The wedding DJ cost guide explains what moves the quote.
How do you handle sound for the ceremony if it's outdoors and the reception is indoors?
I use an independent compact ceremony system, then pack it away during cocktails. I wire and test indoor sound beforehand so the move doesn't leave a gap.
