About

Morgan Acres consists of five manicured acres complete with vineyard, brambles, orchard, pond and plenty of outdoor sites for special events. Several tent locations are available and multiple barns on the property offer a variety of backdrops for photography. The 4000-square-foot Grand Barn is the centerpiece of the property. Recently renovated, its hand-hewn beams and high wood ceiling create an awe-invoking setting. The Barn includes a bridal suite, kitchen, (2) full bathrooms, loft seating and dance floor. Two large sets of barn doors in front and back open, inviting natural lighting and air flow. The large main loft is joined to two balcony sections by arched, wooden walkways. The upper sections can seat up to 175 with additional seating on the main level. The main level is fully ADA accessible. An outdoor deck is available for expanded seating or outdoor activities.

The farmstead was originally constructed in 1840 by the Ploenges family, one of many German families who emigrated from Prussia to the United States in the early 1800's. (Pre-Civil War, pre-Abraham Lincoln Presidency construction.) It was originally part of a 1000-acre farmstead reaching from Cumberland Road into Hancock County. The house & main barn were built from the trees grown on the property. The original hand-hewn timbers still comprise the beams, columns, flooring and siding. The Grand Barn has been restored to maintain its original integrity and design. The property remains a historically significant piece of Indiana history and is eligible for the Indiana Historic Registry.

September Wedding

This was the most magical day for us. Morgan acres was helpful, prompt, and well organized. We both felt they were quick to ensure things went as planned, and we were able to enjoy our wedding day!

Incredible

The second I walked into the barn at Morgan Acres, I knew it was where I wanted to get married. I literally had tears in my eyes. It was breathtaking. Not only that, Shani and her staff helped me with everything along the way and made the day of as stress free as possible. I highly recommend Morgan Acres to host your big day!

Couldn't be better!

To put it simply, everyone at Morgan Acres made my wedding day perfect! From small details that made my day special, to giving us great ideas that made the day unique, they made my wedding smooth, and amazing. Their staff was amazingly helpful throughout the day and even calmed my nerves! I can't say enough good things about this place, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to get married, or even just have a reception!

This place is gorgeous exactly what I was looking for. Shani, the owner, was very easy to work with and was very helpful. They did more than I expected them to do. Everybody was so nice.

Working with Shani and her whole staff for coordination was so awesome. They have an amazing property, and the venue is just stunning. The whole process was well coordinated, I got quick responses on emails and texts and was able to make flexible meeting times to make sure planning throughout the year leading up to the wedding was going smoothly. Shani knows her property in and out so she answered every question and helped me pull off our amazing September wedding flawlessly. The best part is how intimate and romantic the venue became the day of the wedding. It was everything I imagined for my rustic, country wedding with our closest family and friends and I couldn't have had a better experience. Still on a high from it all!

Our wedding day at Morgan Acres was seriously like a fairy tale! Shani schedules 3 pre-wedding meetings to go over all details, back-up plans, and just generally check-in with vendor updates and questions. As a bride that took on the role of "wedding planner" myself, I expected some bumps in the road on wedding day having delegated quite a bit to my bridal party, parents, and vendors. However, thanks to our meetings and Shani's wonderful day of team, everything went flawlessly. I didn't have to worry about a thing! The Barn & grounds looked amazing, everything flowed from the outdoor ceremony, to cocktail hour, to the reception seamlessly. Shani is thorough and works well with your vendors. A big perk of using Morgan Acres, is that they let you pick your own vendors to bring in as long as some basic standards are met. We loved every minute of our wedding day and owe a large part of that happiness to Shani and her team. Best wedding decision we made by far!!

Beautiful venue! Shani and Ashley made my daughter's special day one that she will remember forever! Guests are still talking about how unique this place was and that it was a perfect place to hold a wedding reception. Thanks again for making a stressful day for the Mother of the Bride a very lovely experience!

Morgan Acres is a great venue! Shani, the owner and one event coordinator, was on top of everything. She thinks of things you haven't thought about at all. She guided me the whole wedding process. She is great with all the details. She made our wedding day so special. There were some hiccups, but they went unnoticed due to her and her staff. The venue is beautiful. It was actually next door to where I grew up, so it made the day more special. I guess even as a little kid I knew what I wanted my wedding day to look like. Beautiful trees and scenery. The barn is gorgeous. The lights are perfect inside. I loved everything about this place! If you are want a barn or vintage wedding, this is the place for you!

My daughter found Morgan Acres when looking for a Venue to have her wedding at. We went and meet with the owner Shani and toured the Venue, it was set up for a wedding that day and was beautiful. My daughter selected the Venue and we reserved the date. As the father of the bride I was very involved in the planning of the wedding day. We meet with Shani before the wedding to start finalizing selections, vendors, and layout of the ceremony and table setup. She was great at giving us suggestions and instant feedback on our questions. The day of the wedding, I showed up with my team to decorate and setup everything and Shani was there to answer any questions. She was available throughout the entire wedding ceremony and reception to make sure tables got moved and the Venue looked its best. I also had the opportunity to meet Tim her husband throughout the different times I was at the Venue. He is constantly working on the barn and grounds to improve the property and enhance your experience. - Great family and Great Venue. Vaughn
