Michelle Married on 06/19/2021THE BEST venue for an Indianapolis Wedding
LOOK NO FURTHER: Laurel Hall was one of six places we looked at in late fall 2020 for our June 2021 wedding. With only ONE Saturday date open, we didn’t hesitate to book. We set up a tour and fell in love with the character and charm. From the grand entrance lobby to the light and airy dining room. The wooden staircase captures all the elegance you’ll ever need. They had a stunningly beautiful bridal suite on the second floor and a fabulous library room for the groomsmen. The solarium was where we had our first dance. The outdoor space is so spacious and fit our 120 guests comfortably with room to spare.
Inga and Lindsay were so easy going and responsive via email. They answered all my questions even up until the day of the wedding. Laurel Hall was right in the middle on pricing for venues in Indy, which was so perfect for us. The day of the wedding we coordinated with the maintenance manager to make sure everything was in order. Everything went so smooth! We decided to do our ceremony outdoor as it was a beautiful summer night. (The backup option was the third floor chapel which is breathtaking.. would have been thrilled to have our ceremony up there).
The venue doesn’t even have to be decorated like a typical wedding, it decorates itself! We were so impressed start to finish with the entire process. I don’t think we have any thing at all negative to say about them. Hands down recommend your dream wedding at this hidden gem estate! -

Laurel Hall was such a stunning venue for my Indianapolis wedding. Greta and her team were flexible and welcoming and the venue truly speaks for itself. The various spaces for celebrating and taking photos are amazing. Several people who have seen the photos thought Laurel Hall was a European castle! You don't want to miss Laurel Hall!
