Beautiful Venue in Indianapolis

We looked at so many venues in Indianapolis and this one blew us both away! It's absolutely perfect for a large wedding and the space is jaw dropping. We had so many compliments on the food, the space, and the staff. Eva was the BEST to work with!

Stunning Venue

We had an amazing experience getting married at Union Station. The space is unique, classic, spacious yet intimate, and everything I could have ever wanted for our big day! The venue corrdinator Eva was extremely personable and helpful throughout the entire process. The staff there all the way down to the bartenders and servers were incredibly kind. We had the wedding of our dreams here and the photos we got back were beyond stunning! Thank you union station!

Absolutely Wonderful!

My husband and I fell in love with the Grand Hall of the Crowne Plaza in Indianapolis the first time we stepped through the doors, but the staff is what convinced us to book our wedding there. The events staff's responsiveness, experience, professionalism, and personal touch made our wedding a stress-free and unforgettable experience.

My husband and I were supposed to get married in 2020, but COVID. The staff contacted us to check in and see how we were doing and helped us make the incredibly difficult decision to move our wedding date. They were compassionate and patient -- even though I'm sure they were dealing with PLENTY themselves. They were absolutely wonderful in working with us to move our original date.

Every single person we worked with -- from the director of events, to the engineer who changed the lock on our hotel room door -- gave us INCREDIBLE personal service. We HIGHLY recommend this venue to anyone getting married without reservation.
