Riverside is a beautiful little village, and I feel lucky to have been raised here. When you…read morecompare it to some of the neighboring suburbs that are more "blue collar" (like Lyons and Berwyn), this place really stands out as unique. First of all, there is a lot of history behind Riverside. It is considered the first planned community in the United States and it was designed in 1869 by Frederick Law Olmsted (who also designed Central Park). Also, a lot of the homes here were designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and a handful of other notable architects. Many of the homes here are absolutely gorgeous. My home is a Queen Anne Victorian straight out of the 1880s. I love many of the other Victorian homes that can be found in this town. If you love architecture, then the village of Riverside is a must-visit. The people who live here are generally lovely and very friendly, if admittedly quite homogeneous (95% white). The public school systems are high quality, and there is also an excellent private school option in the K-8 St. Mary's School. Even though Riverside has struggled to keep businesses, there are several excellent places that appear to be thriving like the new place empanadUS, Grumpy's, and Chew Chew Cafe. I'm optimistic that growth will continue! Overall, Riverside is beautiful. Even though many out-of-towners have gotten lost when trying to navigate the winding roads, they are quite scenic when you factor in the beautiful houses, the trees, and the DesPlaines River.

This was the ceremony site of a friends wedding and it was a great choice. Very cute little cathedral with very high ceilings that connected at an angle. The father speaks Lithuanian so he can perform a dual language ceremony for you (and apparently they have classes in the language here as well). Beyond the cathedral this place is huge! Classrooms, bathrooms, a bathroom with a tub and shower, a kitchen, a beautician on site, a banquet hall, and a dining room that leads out onto a lawn with extra seating. We had the rehearsal dinner here with traditional Lithuanian food, wine and beer catered in (so alcohol is allowed). Definitely a place to keep in mind if you are looking for traditional Lithuanian. i sveikata!
