Seamless Wedding Day

We had both our ceremony (North Ballroom) and reception (South Ballroom) at the Purdue Memorial Union. Kyla, was our point of contact and she was absolutely incredible to work with. In fact the entire staff we came across was phenomenal- to the point where even our guests complimented it (hotel & venue staff included). Everything went off without a hitch due to their high level communication and efficiency. I could not be more grateful to have had my wedding at the place where our love story began.

I even booked the Anniversary drawing room for getting ready with my bridesmaids. We paid for catered brunch , and the staff was excellent. The food at the actual wedding was mouth watering as well.


If you are debating booking them- do it! The cost for high level and quality service beats out so many others with what they include and service add one they have available.

We had our reception in the Purdue Memorial Union, North Ballroom. The food was amazing! We worked with their wedding planner, Casey, and she was very flexible and professional in assisting us with our wedding. The best part was on the day of the wedding, the Purdue Memorial Union Staff took care of setting up for the reception by working with the cake and flower vendors when they delivered. It made my day less stressful and I recommend this venue if your are in the Lafayette or West Lafayette area!

Things are always wonderful at the Union. Food is great. Service is very good. I have seen them do some great things with lighting and decor. Good parking and lots of room for large receptions. There is lots near by to photograph also.
